We remember your choices for 180 days in this browser on this website. Other websites ask separately.
Essential website functions
Essential storage remembers your choice and helps keep the website working. You can browse and book without accepting optional website cookies.
Analytics
We ask your permission before using Google Analytics to understand visits, booking-link activity and booking steps (starting a booking in the calendar and completed bookings, measured by booking reference, value and currency). Google Analytics stays switched off until you allow Analytics. We do not include your name, email, phone number or booking-contact details in these events.
Advertising
With your permission, Google receives advertising signals to measure campaigns and show relevant ads on other websites. You can allow advertising separately from analytics; it does not enable website analytics events by itself.

Google cookies are set only after you allow analytics or advertising, and the website removes them if you later reject those categories. Durations are Google’s standard settings.
Booking and video providers
The booking calendar and separate booking link use Bókun. It may use its own cookies and analytics under its notices. YouTube is contacted only when you choose “Load video from YouTube” or its external link. These providers' separate settings are not controlled by your optional website choices.
Changing your mind
You can change your choices at any time in Cookie settings. Reject optional turns off optional website analytics and advertising and removes the optional cookies this website can clear. Changing your choice does not delete information already sent or change your settings with other services. If your choice expires or cannot be checked, we ask again. A previous analytics-only choice does not give advertising permission. Both optional categories stay off until you choose.
