This place was spotless and exactly what we needed. We wanted extra space and a spectacular view and this place nailed it?Gretar was fantastic and all amenities were as promised. Would definitely stay again 10/10!
It was clean behind the tv. My house isn't clean behind the tv... Gretar personally showed up and walked us through the house hours before check-in should have been. Everything worked, everything was clean, and there were so many little extras.
We travel frequently and this was the absolute best home we have ever booked. Most times we are disappointed because the photos are better than the home. Not in this case! Excellent communication too.
Great place to stay with the family. Quiet location with a fantastic view. Took advantage of the cold plunge, hot tub, sauna and weight room as well as the kitchen and outdoor grill for family meals.
Beautiful home for our Iceland adventure. This place was awesome! Comfortable rooms and an incredible kitchen. We could not have asked for a better home base during our stay. Oh, and the Northern Lights really pop out here! The hot tub and sauna made for a wonderful end of the day treat.
This stay was everything we could have asked for and more! There were 6 people in our group and there was enough space for everyone to spread out. The kitchen is well equipped and everything was as pictured. Would definitely stay again!
Met the host at the front door He’s extremely nice and very accessible for any questions during the week The place is quiet and in a beautiful setting The views from the deck are fantastic One of the best places we ever stayed for a vacation Would highly recommend and would stay here again
Nicely located to make day trips to Reykjavik, Husafell, Snæfellsjökull National Park, Golden Circle, and Vik. Beautiful views and nicely equipped kitchen. Highly recommended
This property far exceeded our expectations. The house is fully stocked with everything you could possibly need, which made our stay comfortable and easy. The views of the surrounding countryside are simply stunning.The rooms are clean and spacious and the living room is generous in size, the perfect place to relax, enjoy a glass of wine and take in the scenery. The sauna and hot tub felt like true luxuries, especially since we could see the northern lights while sitting in the hot water. It truly made our stay special.We would return in a heartbeat!
We stayed at this property for 3 nights, wish we could have stayed longer! Amazing views, kids loved the video games, sauna and hot tub were nice after a long day of sightseeing. Host was super responsive to check in questions and showed us around and had manuals for operating hot tub and sauna. Would highly recommend to anyone looking to stay in this area!
Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2025

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication
The accommodation was outstanding in all manners (location, cleanness, facilities, landscape views, .. etc) in addition to the great and warm welcoming from the villa owner and ease of check in/ check out procedures.
Highly recommended in my opinion.
We had a wonderful, relaxing stay! The house was well appointed and the views were spectacular. It’s an easy drive into and around Reykjavik and surrounding parks. Highly recommend for your quiet, relaxing getaway!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. This house is amazing and we didn’t want to leave! We thank our host for a wonderful vacation home and hope to be back soon!
This house and host exceed all expectations! The house is immaculate the view is extraordinary the neighborhood is peaceful. See saw Northern lights all 6 nights we were there. Nov2025. Coffee hot tub sauna all spectacular.Out of the city close to the golden circle. Would definitely stay here again in summer!
Amazing house with stunning views. Had everything we needed. Beautiful design and perfect location. We would definitely stay again but for longer than 3 days next time!
I highly recommend this place to stay if you are planning anything in the northwest areas of Iceland. It was clean well stocked and convenient too many destinations north west of Reykjavík. The hosts met us with the key and make sure that we were informed of all the amenities the property had to offer
This house was absolutely gorgeous. We couldn’t have asked for anything more. The kitchen had everything we needed and the sitting area had spectacular views. We didn’t want to leave!
We had a great time at the house. Everything was as promised.
It was a great location to use as a Basecamp for exploring Iceland with the family.
Thank you.
