Kivik Strand Logi & Café

Top choice in Skåne


Located down by the beach in a meticulously restored 19th-century schoolhouse is a superlative hostel-B&B combo that’s more chic boutique than backpacker bolt hole (think William Morris–style wallpaper, rustic floorboards and a savvy sprinkling of antiques). The communal kitchen is bright and well equipped, while the cafe serves exceptional espresso (and key lime pie).
