Enjoyed our stay, despite heavy rain and strong winds during our two-night visit. The apartment was well provisioned overall (a microwave would have been nice) and clean. I did stump my toe multiple times as there is a "ledge" between the main room and bathroom, but finally learned my lesson :) The one area of improvement is communication/check-in. We were not provided any instructions ahead of time, and no one replied to the message I sent that morning to confirm the check-in process, so I just knocked on the main house door when we arrived at 5PM. The young women who answered had me follow her into the house, but that felt very awkward going through their laundry room with all of their personal items - especially as it turned out that the apartment was open and the key on the table. I would recommend just letting occupants know ahead of time which apartment they were assigned so guests could go straight there.

Property host was not easy to communicate with and not very friendly, which was surprising considering the rental units are right on the family’s driveway. I had to go up to the family home to ask what unit I would be staying in, to which a child answered the door. Odd check in process, but the unit itself is nice. Spacious and clean and good location.

We had a wonderful one night stay here. Beautiful surroundings and you can park ur car right up front. If I can point out one thing, maybe adding a microwave would be perfect. But just a suggestion. Everything was great.

This property was just of the main road, pretty close drive to Dyrhólaey Lighthouse Viewpoint and Reynisfjara Beach, and about 20 min away from Skogafoss. The bed was big (king-sized) and was quite comfortable. We like how there was a proper dining table. But what we didn’t like was there was no microwave or oven. There was a stovetop but it’s hard to store food in the fridge when you can’t reheat it anyway. Or you still have to put it in the stovetop to reheat it. So inconvenient, especially when traveling with young kids. Also, when we came, there were a lot of dishes in the dishwasher that were clean but I still had to put them away. The parking was convenient though as we could park just in front of our apartment. The view was also nice. Overall, it was okay, however, for the price, we expected much better amenities.

Overall, the Hvammból Apartments were a nice place to stay. The hosts were very accommodating, bringing us extra pillows and blankets upon request. However, if you are a sensitive sleeper, I would not recommend staying here. The beds are akin to futons and were rough to sleep on. For the price, were I to travel to Vik again, I would opt for a nicer place so I could get sounder sleep and not be so tired while on vacation.

-good communication with owners. -Studio apartment layout🙁 -No washing machine🙁 -Google maps not great for finding the location. 😐 -small kitchen and limited utensils- no microwave or extractor fan🙁 -lots of parking available. L Stayed here on two separate occasions. First in rooms 1-4 and the second time in rooms 5-8. Rooms 5-8 seemed they were a bit larger than 1-4. I received an email from the owners about two days before which provided details on how to get to the guesthouse and arrival instructions. This was very helpful and useful. The place was warm and very clean on arrival. It is cosy but small with a wet room layout for the shower. The kitchen is small with limited cooking utensils, no microwave, no oven or extractor fan but is still fairly functional. This place was very good value for money and the location was really good for our journey.
