Our take

My take: Við Hafið is a straightforward guesthouse whose main strength is its position, right on the water in Ólafsvík with sea or mountain views from the rooms. Family rooms and free WiFi make it practical for a group, and the spa lounge adds a place to rest after a day outdoors. Snæfellsjökull National Park is only 10 km away, and golfing and horse riding are close. I would choose it for a calm few nights on the Snæfellsnes peninsula, backed by 1,489 reviews and an 8.5 score.
