Our bungalow was ridiculously overpriced. I was traveling with my daughter and 2 small children and was shocked at how small and cramped it was. It ended up being close to $500 usd a night and we stayed for 3. It was basically a place to lay your head down and shower. There was never enough hot water, we had to take military showers.
To be fair, there were some positives. The beds were comfortable and we were warm. The scenery around the property is lovely,
The price did include breakfast which was in the main hotel- Hotel Laki. It was very good but still not worth what we paid. The staff were all friendly . The views from the restaurant and bar are beautiful. There was a play area for kids with a tipi and toys inside the bar/ lounge which my grandchildren used while we ate breakfast ( they didn’t) It kept them busy while we were able to plan our activities for the day.

You know that the experience is going to be iffy when the lady at the front desk responds, \"Ummmmm\" to the question \"Is this a nice room?\" The bungalow was not particularly clean and is kind of run down. It did not have TV or internet. The shower ran out of hot water after one shower. I understand that Iceland is pricey, but we paid way too much for this room.

On the bright side, the restaurant at the hotel is really very good.

The bungalows are really small, got a room for 2 adults and 2 kids which had a bed and sofa bed, the sofa bed wasn’t big enough to fit in 2 people. The space was very tight and it wasn’t well maintained. The room was clean and breakfast was decent. The staff was friendly, but the price didn’t justified what you get.

Honestly wish I had just slept in my car. We stayed in one of the bungalows for over $500 a night. No amenities, no fridge, no WiFi... the place didn't even have hot water the first night we got there which is suppose to be the one thing Iceland has in abundance. My daughter got sick in the middle of the night and the cleaning staff \"cleaned\" the blanket but it still reeked of throw up. The one benefit was the free breakfast and it was delicious but that was ruined by a staff member telling my 2 year old daughter to stop dropping her egg shells on the floor (as if she was doing it on purpose and we weren't right there with her!). Don't stay here!

It was basically a little shed. That's fine, except for the price. It was so much compared to other places we stayed, and there wasn't even wifi in the shed. Though it did include a buffet breakfast, and the surroundings were pretty. It would be great for a cheaper price from what I paid.

Wifi did not reach the bungalow. Bathroom door handles were not screwed together, allowing knobs on both sides to fall out. Twin beds shoved together. Some $ should be put into refurbishment. The restaurant was great for dinner. The breakfast was average. The overnight laundry service was a well spent $20.

I really wanted to like this place and I enjoyed the historic location of the property (though I wanted to find the bunker of ash layers and couldn't). The bungalow was very small for 4 people and it needs some updating, especially for the price --attention to the bathroom and kitchen areas.

We very much appreciated being able to have the hotel breakfast which was fantastic. The staff there especially Jose, is engaging and friendly. Bread was a standout.

It was a rough day in Iceland fleeing from a late-May snow storm in the East, but Anna Maria who was working at reception was simply fantastic. Her professionalism and concern for my stressful day truly turned things around because she went above and beyond. It may have been some little things from her perspective, but she was so great. My room was close to my adult children. Got some ice for our cooler.
The rooms were great. Probably the best night's sleep in Iceland (over 9 day trip). Great solid breakfast with sausage, eggs, cheese, cereal, and more.
It is my understanding that the ownership may be changing, but I hope nothing changes because I would love to stay there again on my next trip to Iceland.

Great hotel. We ended up staying at Hotel Laki instead of the bungalows because it was more convenient.

The staff were so kind. One of the nicest we've encountered in Iceland.
- The receptionist changed our booking month when we got it wrong and helped us cancel one of our double bookings because of the snowstorm.
- The restaurant staff, Arna and Jose, gave my daughter boxed apple juice, bread to feed the horses inc baby horses nearby, gave a small gift to my daughter, and a small cake when my daughter told them it was my birthday.

Spacious rooms, great bar area with fun games to play during the snowstorm.

Efri-Vik Bungalow nicely accommodated the two of us since it could sleep up to 5 or 6. It was comfortable with the only exception being the shower. Like many European showers, it was not fully contained such that a good portion of the water ended up on the bathroom floor (despite a \"half shield\" that provided some protection). But, since we were only staying one night, it was more amusing than annoying. The fact that the drain was not working well compounded the problem. Other than that, it was a great place with a first class breakfast at the main hotel nearby.

Stayed in the small cottages which each slept 2 people. They were simple and quiet and clean. Desk staff was great, helpful with laundry completed over night for $30 for a load and we picked it up next morning. Breakfast was included and was good, had decent number of options. Didn’t try dinner at the restaurant. The horses were very nice to visit and get some photos. They like to eat dandelion leaves.

This was a disappointing stay. The bungalows are behind/below the Hotel Loki. There is no signage and it really feels like these cabins need some love. The family built these before they built the fancier hotel above. Our keychain said \"Hotel Loki Hut\" which may be more accurate from a branding standpoint. It certainly feels like you are in the low-rent district. The cabins are small and old without many outlets. The bathroom was odd with a small glass partition for the shower, and yes, the floor got very wet. It either needs an update or some really good scrubbing. Even the TP is an odd stretch from the toilet. The best upside is that breakfast at the hotel is included and it is a good buffet.

This property is shared with hotel Loki. The bungalows are terrible to stay in. The bathroom flooring was sticky, congested and super dirty. Half of the power outlets did not work, the room was so small that there was no place to put two bags in the room. The lighting in the room was limited. We checked out very early in the morning as we could not sleep well.
Gave it 1 star only for the friendly staff and amazing breakfast.

Stayed in one of the cabins which was a short distance from the Hotel. It was quiet, peaceful and we could see the Northern Lights. The shower is a bit difficult to navigate but its servicable as the cabin is small. The deck to observe the night sky had a broken wine glass on the ground. It was very dark on the deck so it was not a good situation. The glass on the sliding door to the deck was also cracked badly. Buffet breakfast was large.

The buffet breakfast was wonderful. No complaints. I suspect the hotel raises the price and n the bungalows to force all tourists to pay for the 55 Kr “free” breakfast. This is a wooden garden shed covered with corrugated aluminum on the outside. Exposed plumbing and electrical cables. Worn bad paint job. Muddy road to the shed. No wifi. No TV. Ni closet. Rickety chairs. The table is nailed to the wall and 1’ by 2’. The bedroom is just big enough for the bed, no more. No refrigerator. Very little hot water—one short shower and water is cooling off. This place was expensive and set up to take advantage of tourists who must rent sight unseen and can’t get a refund

very old and past its glory bungalows/cabins

The bungalows are super old, with broken planks, they are just past their glory. We were located next to the bungalows that were pictured, which were a little bigger but even older. The lady at the front desk was super nice and gave us the option to see another bungalow, but we didn't see much improvement. The hotel itself looks nice, but the upkeep is lacking. A lot of groups with busses were staying, so it was a ZOO!!! In the hallways, in the restaurant (only buffet) and with breakfast (buffet). We will not stay here anymore because of the unclean and old cabin, and the food in buffet style that was ransacked in a matter of minutes.
The positive is that the staff was super nice and we made a very nice walk after dinner behind the property around a lake.

Avoid this place

Cabin was fairly good, comfortable and clean, although bathroom could be refurbished soon.
Breakfast was good, although a bit crowded and staff not very helpful.
The worst is that I forgot a phone charger in my room and called shortly after leaving asking for help, as I didn’t have another. Was worried because I had everything on my phone (plane ticket etc). Reception lady (that didn’t sound helpful) said that she would ask the cleaner that was at the room as we spoke, and would called me back. She never did. When I called again she said that there was nothing left in the room. Clearly they kept my charger and were unwilling to help even when I explained my situation. Very bad experience! Avoid this place, the staff is terrible and unhelpful.

These are effectively huts with small showers but no other amenities. The photo implies that they sit in an isolated area but in fact, this is tucked behind a large hotel. The \"bungalows\" are located right behind the very large Hotel Laki, which mostly seems to serve tour groups. The good thing is that bungalow guests have access to the very good buffet breakfast, but the vibe being situated behind a large hotel is not at all what the pictures would imply.

Overall very good location and easily accessible, Heating wasn't working in one of two unit we rented. Staff immediately provided room heater as alternate.

Both bunglows had kitchen facilities and it was well maintained.

Our bungalow was small, cramped and uncomfortable. Beds were very small, lumpy, only 1 pillow each. Shower was 3 X 3. I guess I got what I paid for as the price was reasonable. Breakfast was adequate.

This place is a lot of fun for those who enjoy basic accommodations in a beautiful setting. The cabin was very roomy and came with a fully functional kitchen where one could cook their own meals should they want to save a bit on dining costs (Dining is considerably higher in Iceland than in the U.S. and much of the rest of Europe). There was also a kitchen table and chairs. While small the bathroom was very clean and everything worked great (Plenty of hot water and pressure was excellent). The natural beauty is all around outside and birds were highly enjoyable to watch and hear. Parking was right next to my cabin, so unloading and loading was a snap. The cabin was very clean, but the pillows were bit too thin for me, so you might want to ask for extra pillows when checking in. A breakfast that was served at the hotel on the grounds was also included and the food was great. Be sure to try the eggs; even though they were cooked differently than I am accustomed to, they were very tasty. The jams and cheeses were also superior. I enjoyed my stay and would happily return in the future.

Setting was gorgeous. Staff was very friendly and helpful. Breakfast was wonderful. You can arrange and pay for a sack lunch the night before….very convenient if you plan to hike in Vatnajokull NP the following day! Only downside (and this was a big downside for us, with teens as well as emails to catch up on) is there is no wifi in the bungalows.

We absolutely loved our lovely little bungalow! It was set back from the main hotel but only a couple of minutes walk to main reception but it allowed us to park our car right outside our front door. As we learnt travelling around Iceland, it meant we didn’t have to take all our luggage out and could just dip into our suitcases when needed! The bungalow was super clean and the beds were extremely comfortable me after long days out exploring. We also didn’t realise we had breakfast included which was a very welcome surprise. The buffet on offer was fantastic with so many hot and cold options, really filled us up for the day. The location of the property is really well suited and surrounded by yet more beautiful countryside. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend or stay here again! The definite bonus was the friendly resident dog who loved playing catch and throw, loved seeing it every morning.

TERRIBLE

Very old bungalow by the side of the Laki Hotel.

To start: there’s no sign on the road indicating Vik bungalows, only Laki Hotel.

The bungalows look like abandoned: full of cobwebs and spiders, dirty outside and inside and the bathroom is nothing but terrible.

To complete this unpleasant experience the hot water didn’t work in my bungalow, I had to take a cold shower in Iceland!

EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED.

Look like they forgot about the bungalows and only care about the hotel, but if this is the truth, why are they still reserving the bungalows for guests?

And don’t expect wi-fi as well.

Anyway, the only good experience was the breakfast.

We loved having our own bungalow type house. The breakfast had many options and was so delicious. Parking was free and available. The staff so helpful. This was an excellent choice in stay along the southern coast! Would definitely stay again.

Highly recommend

The bungalow was a cute spot to stay in and the breakfast at the hotel was really nice. The hotel staff was great in assisting us with a tour reservation and when we left items in the room, they contacted us and are making sure to help return our items to us. They were super accommodating! And the hotel was in a great location for the ring road.

I wouldn’t have picked this had I known.

This stay was kind of primitive. My biggest issue was the condition was very worn. The sheets had some stains and were slightly fraying in places. The bed was lumpy. The shower was small and made the whole bathroom floor wet. The cabin had a musty smell. The heaters worked well. The staff was friendly. The breakfast had a large variety of items which was nice. I wish we had stayed in the hotel itself which seemed much nicer than the bungalows. The view from the hotel (not bungalow) was nice.

We arrived soaked in torrential rain, and the staff bumped us to a hotel room (we had a bungalow) without prompting. The room was clean and comfortable, though we didn't have access to a fridge or a microwave, one of which we were hoping we would have. In the morning as the skies cleared up we could appreciate the scenic location, and access to the deck much more. There was a lovely Border Collie we got to play catch with! They had an average breakfast spread, with pancakes, bread, eggs, beans, deli meats, cheese, and a few other items, as well as an espresso machine. The staff were also quite helpful with all our requests. As it was only a day's stay, we left right after breakfast, but we had a good stay in general.
