“Hvammbol Guesthouse strikes me as a smart choice near Vik i Myrdal; the studio apartments have private entrances and kitchenettes, appealing if you value independence. I'd say the location particularly suits birdwatchers and those keen to explore the black sand beaches and Dyrhólaey's arches. Hiking opportunities abound, and the included parking simplifies exploring the surrounding natural wonders.”
