    The staircase upstairs is more like a ladder and was hard for people with big bags.

    Great location on the water. Was nice hearing the water at night with an open window. The key box feature is very handy and nice.

    A magic place!

    Tungulending Guesthouse is the best place to stay in Iceland if you appreciate a quiet peaceful time and have come for the Icelandic nature. It is a little remote. My daughter and I had a marvellous time there and the hosts are extremely friendly and helpful. For us, it was magic. In summer, when the owners offer coffee and tea, try the homemade chocolate cake.

    Provision of a full size fridge with freezer would be helpful; microwave positioned so it couldn’t reach a power point (had to move it from a high shelf). Noticed most guests prepared own dinners and breakfasts so may need to rethink how to make it more user friendly.

    Sensational location; kind owners; spacious common area; modern shared bathrooms; comfy beds. Appreciated being able to prepare simple meals and access coffee/hot water.

    High expectations but disappointing of all our lodgings during 10 day Ring Road trip in July.

    There was a musty smell in our room and one pillow didn't smell fresh. It was fine after it was flipped over. It was difficult preparing food without use of a sink or cutting board/knife. While there was a microwave, shared refrigerator, bowls, plates, cups, it wasn't enough when most of the guests prepared their own meals. It would help to provide paper towels or dishcloths for clean up, maybe even dishwashing liquid at the toilet sink since there was no kitchen sink.

    Located right on the water, the views are spectacular. Shared bathrooms and toilets were large, clean and any wait to use was never long. We made use of the kitchen area to prepare a simple dinner and breakfast and then enjoyed the views from the deck. Coffee, tea, and coffee was available 24/7 but ran out before the staff arrived at 8:30AM the next morning.

    Dishware cannot be washed by the guests for hygene reasons, but I believe also having them piled at the counter is not ideal.

    The check in was easy and smooth. The position in front of the ocean is simply amazing. The attention to details both in the room's furniture and in the common areas is really appreciated: a great mix of taste and functionality!

    Location and easy check in, with comfortable services and excellent views Use of the common kitchen and utensils is flawless and essential given how remote the property is The remote nature of the location is a big plus and I would recommend travelers to seek this kind of truly honest establishments with great environments and close contact to nature; as well as friendly services Hosts are very welcoming and warm; all smiles all the time We felt really at home

    It’s the closest I’ve felt to being at home, even while being in a completely unfamiliar country. There’s something about the warmth, atmosphere, and ease that just made it all feel surprisingly familiar. The owners are truly going above and beyond — you can really feel the care and effort they put into everything.

    We were very happy in this fantastic accommodation by the sea, we had a great time there and the best view of all houses in Iceland. Our children enjoyed that stay also, we felt there like in the fantastic paradise of the ocean. The owners are very nice and helpfull family, I admire their style of life and we are gratefull to be able to join them for a while. Thanks a lot!

    Only thing to be mindful was the shared bathroom but they were well maintained as well.

    The place was very near to Husavik. The location and views are amazing with a walkable boardwalk over the waterbody. The room was small, but it still had a provision for a good stay. The atay had a common room for dining which we used fully as we were a group of 7. The hosts were really accommodating and nice and provided clear instructions.

    There was nothing not to love

    We loved the character and charm. The location was absolutely wonderful. The owners, Thessa and Chris, are very friendly and welcoming. They love their guesthouse and guests, and it really shows. We loved laying in bed and looking out over the sea. It was very relaxing and peaceful. The beds were comfortable, and the room was warm. The cafe runs each day downstairs until 6.30 pm. The cakes are scrumptious. There is a corner set up with a fridge, microwave, toaster, and jug for guests to use, as well as plates, bowls, cups, and cutlery. Cereal and milk are provided. Coffee, tea, and hot water are provided also. The cafe kitchen can not be used by guests. Bring food that does not need cooking on a stove and is easy to prepare. We would have loved to stay for longer in this very special place, but our trip did not allow. Thanks, Thessa and Chris, you are the best!

    Kitchen. Host tried to do the best for guests, collected dirty dishes, coffe was made, hot water all the time in the kettle but it is not convinient not to be able to use stavetop or wash dishes. Fridge is too small also for so many guests.

    Wonderful place by the ocean! Clean rooms, comfortable beds. Beautiful ocean view, very easy to drive to Husavik. Quiet and peaceful.

    Had to leave too early for whale watching. Wish we could have stayed longer. 🙁

    Breathtaking views- clean, comfortable. Location on the water - we saw humpbacks in evening and orcas in morning with fresh brewed coffee. The family that owns is friendly and relaxed! Lots of large washrooms- this was never an issue. We had small car and had no trouble with road to house.

    The location of the Tungulending Guesthouse is the first thing to note, it is utterly spectacular. Nestled on its own among the cliffs, overlooking the bay with mountains in the distance, is superb. Thessa and Chris have worked very hard to ensure that all guests’ needs are taken care of, and everything that we could have asked for was available. We particularly liked all the entertainment ideas. I spent half an hour or so contributing to the puzzle in the corner, while my wife and I each took a note from the dare jar! My wife had to dip her toes in the sea, while I lucked out with taking some deep breaths on the jetty! The biggest point to note is there is no access to proper cooking facilities, however there’s a microwave, toastie maker and kettle so as long as you come prepared, you won’t starve!
