Loved this guest house! It was so cute! We were initially a little worried about the shared bathroom but we never had any issues or ever had to wait for a bathroom to be open. The breakfast that is included was amazing and the staff was so nice. Highly recommend!

We loved staying here. Paulina and Tomic were very friendly and had helpful tips for traveling around Iceland (how to check road and weather conditions). The lamb dinner was outstanding! And the breakfast had many different dishes to choose from. Everything was very clean and the kitchen in the guest house was well stocked. It’s about 20+ minutes west of Vik. We would stay here again.

Perfectly located for us being close the Skogar area hiking that we explored. Especially pleased that there was a restaurant for dining and did not have to go searching for any after a long day of hiking. Accommodations and amenities were top notch.

The room was comfortable and clean. The location of the guesthouse was perfect as a halfway point for my travels. Located close enough to the main road for convenience but still private and quiet.
