Guest House Svetlana

We are a family with a love for nature, people, and warm hospitality. I am originally from Odessa, Ukraine, a beautiful city by the Black Sea, while my husband was born in Reykjavík, Iceland. For over ten years, we have been living together in this breathtaking part of South Iceland, surrounded by stunning landscapes. From our home, we have a panoramic view of the incredible Eyjafjallajökull volcano and the town of Hella on one side. On another side, we admire majestic mountains, and on the third side, we see the ocean with the Westman Islands on the horizon. We love hosting guests and sharing the magic of this place with people from all over the world. We enjoy talking, cooking, playing guitar, and creating warm and memorable moments with our visitors. My husband is always happy to answer questions and share fascinating stories about Iceland’s rich history. We would be delighted to welcome you into our home and make your stay truly special!
