United States of America“This guesthouse on Grimsey Island is run by an exceptional family. We were picked up at the ferry with our luggage and transferred both directions. Once on the island they will drive guests a short distance to town, or the lighthouse. No car is...”- Karen United States of America“Hosts were fabulous, room was clean and comfortable, kitchen was well equipped.”
Sharon United States of America“Super nice owners! Loved everything about this, except that there were only two bathrooms available, but that was a minor issue”
