kitchen

When got there around 9pm - the restaurant was closed but the Chef was still there and whipped us (4) up a wonderful meal - our first taste of Iceland.  The rooms were small but cozy and the beds were comfortable.  There was a common room with a kitchen that we hung out in during the evenings. It was quiet. Every employee that we came in contact was very friendly and accommodating.  Great place and I would definitely stay there again.  They have a working farm but it rained and was miserable the entire time we were there so we didn't have the opportunity to walk around the property.

Great little country inn

We had a lovely one-night stay driving the southern coast. The staff was pleasant and professional and though the room was typically Euro small it was clean and appointed well with very nice bath products.  Restaurant options locally are limited so we ate at the guesthouse's dining room and had a very nice meal; local lamb and arctic char, additionally the provided breakfast was ample. We would recommend it.

Lovely one night stay and dinner.

We were only there one night as part of a tour group, but from the time we arrived until we departed the next day, I absolutely loved the vibe of this place.  We arrived, checked into our rooms and cleaned up for our dinner there on site that evening.  The dinner was outstanding and the owner/chef came out and talked to our table for a minute.  The beds were comfortable, the amenities were very nice and felt like an extension of a home, and to top it off, the owner let us meet him in the barn to see the morning feeding!  He was a very nice and humble man and all I can say is that if you get a chance to stay here, try to stay longer than we did and meet and talk to the owner...I'd bet he has some great stories!

It was like staying with a family member!

Very pleasant nice staff, beautiful lobby and patio area, very comfortable at night, there is common kitchen area available for any guests and it was clean and well maintained by the guests. Location is good, right next to the road 1. Breakfast options were nice: regular around the island (toast, cheese, sliced meat or sausage, some cucumber, paprika, tomatoes, cereal, tea, coffee) + some local seasonal specialties like jam, some pate. If you want you can ask them to meet the dogs or see the cattle. Fun to do if you have time. They speak English and are ready to help if you have questions. They also had Icelandic sweaters for purchase that were cheaper than in the Icewear shop in Vik. I really enjoyed my stay.
Opening/closing doors next to your room could create noise though but it is still good value, I recommend it & would stay there again.

Good value & comfy

Very nice rooms, in a nice building with more than enough shared bathrooms that are very spacious. Clean, very friendly staff and by far the best breakfast we had in all of Iceland. Highly recommended!

Great place to stay

I really enjoyed our two night stay at the guesthouse. It was in a great location for all the activities we wanted to do in the area. The room was on the small side but very cute. There was a little kitchen and seating area with board games in the common room. Dinner was fantastic! Breakfast could have used more variety but was over all good. I would stay here again.

Very nice guesthouse!

I booked this guesthouse using Rick Steven’s book on Iceland and boy am I glad that I did! It was in a great location for our southern tour of Iceland.  The guesthouse had everything you’d need including breakfast in the morning which was wonderful and an amazing dinner! We appreciated the quiet and the quaintness of the farm.  It was fun to see the animals, relaxing to sit and have a cup of coffee, and, in my opinion, a wonderful way to truly experience Iceland!

Iceland at its finest

Beautiful, clean, comfortable room with an incredible view.  The food at the restaurant was delicious and the beer was ice cold.  Everyone who worked here was very friendly and helpful  and the breakfast was so, so good. This place was amazing - I wish we had stayed longer

Don't miss!

We arrived early due to a torrential downpour that had soaked us. They quickly checked us in, expedited prepping our room, gave us extra towels and coathangers, even offered use of their giant tumble-dryer. 
We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of dinner in their cozy dining room. Simple menu but very delicious.
The room and bathroom are compact but very functional, quiet, cool (or warm of you prefer) and we had a good night sleep. As we had an early excursion the next day, we were offered to start breakfast early, and were so happy not to have missed it. There was a wide choice and it was delicious.
The facility is unassuming but the location makes this place unique for nearby sightseeing in Vik, and the friendliness is priceless.

most helpful and friendly staff on our entire trip

While this is not a five-star luxury hotel stay, it is a five star stay for what it is. The rooms were clean and comfortable. They were bit tiny, but we expect that in Europe. We did have to wait once for a shower, but never for a toilet. The breakfast was light but tasty. The true highlight though was the dinner. Definitely try to plan your stay so that you are able to eat dinner there. The lamb and the arctic char were both fantastic. Our rooms were very quiet, and the location was fantastic for exploring around Vik and the surrounding area.
