Everything was great. We had a nice and warm little house for ourselves. 😊

Our accommodation looked exactly the same as the pictures. It was clean, cozy and warm. Enough coffee pods even for such crazy coffee addicts like we are :D Small kitchen but we found there everything we needed.

Ivana Slovakia

Very beautiful views and the host was exceptional!

Nikos Greece

It was located in a very convenient location near vik. The apartment had all the amenities. The kitchen was so nice and we could prepared our meals without an issue. The beds were so comfy. Heating was superb. Wifi connection was also very good. The checkin process was very convenient and was contactless. Ample parking slots just front of the apartment. We did even see northern lights from the apartment it self. Can recommend this place without any hesitation.

Ishanka Netherlands

The studio flat was clean, big enough for two people and equipped with everything we needed for our 1 night stay; we could also cook our own dinner. Highly recommend it!

Alessandra Italy

Great self-contained unit not far from the town of Vik and the black sand beach. Private bathroom, well-equipped kitchen and comfortable beds. This owner was kind enough to refund us 1 night of accommodation when a red road alert stopped us from reaching the accommodation in time. We really enjoyed the one night we did have to stay here.

Leanne Australia

Very comfortable little studio in a peaceful, farm setting. Good communication from owners with easy no contact access. Good location for exploring the coast and sights near Vik. Good kitchen facilities, make sure you bring whatever supplies you need for meals as the shops are a few kilometres drive. Great supermarket in Vik. Would definitely stay here again.
