If visiting the south of the island, stay at Hótel Kría in Vik. This opened in the summer of 2018, a cool new addition to the area with black sandy beaches just a five-minute walk away. Light wood panelling, charcoal tones and glass feature heavily in the modern design, both inside and out. Meals are taken in Drangar Restaurant, with lamb and fish being especially popular. Innovative creations such as avocado chocolate pudding, skyr and cucumber crystallised white chocolate with dill and merengue appear on the pudding menu – you won’t want to skip dessert at Hótel Kría.
