A must stay if you’re in the vik area. Homey feeling, welcoming environment, excellent value and great staff make this place unforgettable. Not only did we get served with cake on our first night, we sat in a hot tub beneath a WATERFALL, which was the perfect way to relax after a day full of exhausting activities. I would come back to Iceland just to stay here again I cannot recommend enough :)

The unit has a beautiful surrounding, in a great location. There is a small waterfall on the mountain side and the ocean view. It has everything we need. There are a number of extras such as warm bathroom floor, milk for the coffee, home made cakes, hot tub, etc. Consider staying more than one night if your schedule allows.

I booked two triple room for my family and my family. The room was much bigger than I expected. Photos definitely make me feel the room is small and old, but it is actually plenty of space for luggage. it was a nice stay. Great view from the hotel as well. I will highly recommend.

The Garage is a lovely place with lovely people! My husband and I stayed here for just one night but would’ve loved to stay longer if we could. Our studio was super cozy and clean. Kitchen has everything you need to cook/prep a meal. Bathroom was neat with great shower pressure. The grounds are also pretty, with a beautiful waterfall in the background. There was a hot tub that looked nice but we didn’t end up using it, unfortunately. Anna was very welcoming and offered us slices of a delicious almond cake she had just made. We’d definitely return, highly recommend!

Absolutely charming farmhouse property with view of ocean - peaceful setting, really appreciated the warm welcome at reception by the owner who was friendly and had fresh baked cake for guests on arrival, which was a nice touch. Amazing hot tub, fully equipped kitchen with access to larger kitchen in main building if needed as well as a BBQ- you are literally staying on a farm!
