Guest Houses in Vík

The place was very nicely set up. Our host helpful and polite. Very comfortable and homely. Tidy and smart. Quiet. Close to the beach where we could walk to see puffins roosting.

The stay at Guesthouse Carina was like staying over at a friends', or a family member's house. As soon as I stepped in the door, I got homey vibes and my room really exceeded my expectations. My room was on the ground floor between one toilet and one bathroom which I thought was great, and all bathrooms and the toilet were clean and inviting. I did hear people talk outside the door, but not to a degree that it was disturbing me. There was a pair of ear plugs on the shelf, so it seems they are aware that some guests are more disturbed by people talking outside their doors. I hadn't booked my stay to include breakfast initially, but on the day of check-in I got an offer to book breakfast for 1900 ISK, so I did. The breakfast was served in the glass patio, which has a beautiful view of Vik and the black sand beach and the breakfast was really good. I loved the homemade Icelandic rye bread, it tasted like gingerbread cake! If I ever go back to Vik, I will definitely try to book a room at Guesthouse Carina again.

Everything is perfect. The house is perfectly equipped and Celina is very friendly and polite.

I arrived late & was able to self check-in. This is such a special warm place, I instantly felt like visiting my dear aunt or dear uncle. The rooms have decor, artwork on the walls, "human home" furniture (as opposed to cold and faceless usual hotel furniture). Location is fantastic - I could see the Vik church from my window & wake up to Icelandic sunrise! The room was spacious, quiet, warm, with books(!), artwork, had its own sink and mirror if you need to brush your teeth, drink water. And there is shower on the ground (1st) & first (2nd) floor. You even take off your shoes in the house which we do at home in my country but not always in the hotels, I really enjoyed it there - felt home away from home. Breakfast had options usual for Icelandic stays + some fun things like herring in a sauce (loved it!), home baked cookies (delicious!), jam, something else I don't remember but it was lovely. The host was a very nice and polite young man who was very kind and helpful during breakfast, helped me with my questions and was very hospitable. There is free parking on premises. Highly highly recommended for nice people - because this nice place deserves only nice ones. Much love & I hope to come again! <3

Well located super close to the famous black sand beach. Everything was really clean.
