Everything. We had a nice little chat with the owner when checking in and found out quite a lot things about Iceland and the surrounding areas. The room was amazing, we have been upgraded to a One Bedroom Apartment, which had everything you could need for a longer stay. Clean and quiet rooms, kitchen came equipped with pans, dishes, cutlery, a kettle and a coffee machine, as well as stove and microwave so we were able to cook our meals. We spent 8 nights in 8 different accommodations across Iceland and this one was by far the best one. We wish to return here soon!

We had a wonderful stay! The rooms were clean and comfortable, the staff was extremely friendly. The location was absolutely amazing — surrounded by breathtaking natural scenery, the views were truly mesmerizing. There were plenty of showers, a huge and well-equipped kitchen, and the atmosphere was warm, welcoming, and relaxing. Highly recommended!

Great location right off the black beach. Close to lots of good options for restaurants. We paid for the breakfast and it was well worth it with great hot and cold choices.

Stylish modern apartments with a beautiful view of ocean. Location was great as located very near Reynisfjara black sand beach ( you need to pass this property on the same access road to get to the beach). If you wanted to go to the beach at odd times to skip the crowds it would be a short drive away. The property is also very private and yet close enough to get to Vik for a quick bite. The kitchen is fully equipped so you could also prepare a meal if you wanted to.

The location was amazing and the views were postcard perfect. We enjoyed happy hour after checking in and a lovely dinner. You're not near a town or other restaurants so plan on eating at the hotel. It was the perfect location for driving down to the black sand beach near Vik.
