We had a delightful stay in Saltjarnarnes, just outside of Reykjavik. Siggy picked us up at the airport and gave us a little tour as he drove us to the unit, which had everything we needed. Once there, the use of the car was so helpful. We were able to get around and see Reykjavik on our own. We recommend the Golden Circle Bus Tour - it is a great way to see several amazing sites - especially if you are there for a short visit. We'd go back in a heartbeat!

My husband and I visited Iceland for 3 weeks and stayed in Siggi and Nanna's VRBO. They were very kind and helpful during our stay. They made recommendations of restaurants, museums, and the Geothermal Exhibit is not to be missed! They were a wealth of information. They even knocked on our door one evening when the Aurora Borealis was very clearly visible (with the naked eye) from the property which was one of the highlights of the trip. The apartment was very clean and comfortable for our 3 week stay. The washer and dryer were easy to figure out, and there were instructions posted. There was also a large drying rack if you didn't want to use the dryer. The kitchen was great for preparing breakfast and some dinners. There is a Nespresso type coffeemaker with pods, and a French Press. The neighborhood is very quiet, but close to downtown Reykjavik. The drive from their apartment into the heart of Reykjavik was 10 minutes. We did use the car (which still had snow tires, and a spare tire) that was provided with the rental, and it was very reliable and fit perfectly in the parking garages we used in Reykjavik which are very small and tight. The apartment was close to lots of museums and restaurants in downtown, and Costco is not very far away, about 20 minute drive. We used the apartment as a base and took day tours out of Reykjavik. It was unusually snowy and windy weather while we were there, so we were glad we did not have to drive great distances during the bad weather.

Great location, very kind people and wonderful home

We had a fantastic stay at this rental home in Iceland! Siggi, the owner, was incredibly helpful—he went out of his way to pick us up and shared a ton of useful information during the ride. The home itself was perfect: clean, comfortable, and in a great location. Having access to the car made getting around so much easier. We would absolutely book this place again!

Best little apartment in Iceland

My mom and I stayed 6 nights. Siggi and his wife are the best host! The apartment had everything we needed, clean and everything worked great. Close enough to hear the ocean waves at night! The car they let guest use is AWESOME amenity. The apartment is centrally located and easy to travel to the west , north and eastern parts of the island. 10/10 would stay here again

Great place to stay

Loved our stay at this apartment. Ideal, quiet location just a few minutes drive from central Reykjavik or catch the bus which passes by the apartment. Supermarket is close by and you can step out for a walk along the coast. Our host Siggi was friendly, informative and keen to make sure we had a good stay. Siggi also picked us up from the airport and dropped us off for a reasonable cost, which simplified our travel. Would be happy to stay here again and would recommend to others.

Most pleasant stay!

We started our Journey at this place, it could not have been better! It has everything one would need (complete kitchen, hot shower, washing mashine, comfy beds), it is super clean, and the hosts are incredible friendly and helpful. The location is near to the city, but has its own perks like a Lighthouse and a tiny hot spring in proximity. Things are so easy to reach with the car, that Siggi and his wife are lending. Over all, this was a wonderful stay.

Great stay

The apartment/house was small, but tidy and sufficient. We had a few little hiccups (internet password, check engine and oil lights on the dash of the car)…Siggi was quick to reply to our inquiries and the car did great while we were there. If you want to be in the hustle and bustle of Reykjavik this house isn’t your best option…but if you want to be by the water and some good walking then this house is for you. Great home, great host, and the access to the car is very nice. We would stay here again!

Perfect starting point to explore Iceland, provided by great host

Siggi is a perfect and extremely kind host, and the home is a wonderful starting point to explore Iceland. Seltjarnarnes is a great place, with the grotta lighthouse, bird shores, the Kvika footbath and the wonderful hill panoramic view in short walking distances. The bikes and the very close bus station are perfect for Reykjavik, and the robust Subaru kindly provided by Siggi lead us to many incredible experiences. Thanks a lot for wonderful holidays!

Wonderful apartment and hosts

Great apartment, close to Reykjavik. Siggi, the host, offered to pick us up at the airport (for a reasonable fee) and the use of the car made the stay so much more enjoyable to not have to worry about transportation. 5-10 minute drive to City Center, or a 30-ish minute walk. He pointed out good places to eat and get groceries, and even let us rest in a different apartment until ours was ready. Great stay, wonderful hosts! Highly recommend.

Amazing Find, Wonderful Host

This place was great and cozy. With the inclusion of the car, the location was perfect as it is not within walking distance of many places. Area was quiet and neighbors were all very nice. Siri was absolutely fantastic. He picked us up from the airport (for a fee of course) and dropped us off at the blue lagoon on our way out. He had great stories about his home and anything you needed to know- he would tell you.

Great value with a warning.

Siggi and his wife are so kind. Great place and location in Reykjavik. The ocean is a short walk from the VRBO. Siggi does charge to pick you up from the airport and take you back. As one review commented, totally worth it, but do have cash for him, it was $250. With the car included in our room, I feel like we did come out ahead. Iceland is such a beautiful country. Loved it ❤️
