Property information
Grindavík Guesthouse offers a truly unique experience unlike any other. Located in a town surrounded by vast lava fields, our guesthouse immerses you in an environment that cannot be found anywhere else in the world. With self check-in, guests enjoy the flexibility and privacy of arriving on their own schedule, while being steps away from an awe-inspiring volcanic landscape.
Imagine waking up to the surreal beauty of rugged lava flows that circle nearly the entire town. Here, nature's raw power is on full display, and while a small earthquake might occur, you can rest assured that we only allow guests to stay when it is completely safe. We welcome you to experience this rare, untouched environment in between periods of volcanic activity, offering a stay that is as safe as it is memorable.

Neighbourhood information
What makes Grindavík Guesthouse so fantastic is its prime location, offering easy access to the famous South Coast loop and the Golden Circle. In addition, you'll find stunning natural attractions right nearby, such as the Bridge Between Continents and many other hidden gems. We highly recommend a walk to the nearby lava fields for an up-close experience of the raw Icelandic landscape.
