Pleasant stay in Iceland

We enjoyed our stay here. It was centrally located for the various sites we wanted to see during our brief stopover in Iceland. The cabins were charming. We would have liked to have had blackout curtains in the living room and not just the bedroom, but everything was clean and comfortable. The workers were friendly; we'd recommend staying here.

Nice individual basic cottage. Only stayed one night but kitchen looked well stocked with kitchen items if you were to cook. Bathroom shower was small but hot water was hot and pressure was good. Dark enough outside for viewing northern lights. We didn’t use the hot tub but it looked like people enjoyed it.

The property is actually over a 20 minute drive from Selfoss. Buy anything you want to cook prior to going to the property as there is nothing nearby/remote. The staff informed us not to open the windows due to biting flies....which made the rooms hot. There were no screens. If you want to cook in the rooms bring every consumable that you need. The restaurant is nice and prices are consistent with the rest of Iceland. We did enjoy our stay here and would stay at here again.

We loved our stay in our cute cabin with a private hot tub. The patio had a table that was perfect for coffee and dinner. Kitchen had everything we needed. Beds were a little hard but not bad. The bathroom was a little small and the curtain does not keep the water in the shower. Perfect location for the golden circle. The secret lagoon was only 30min from there as well. We loved how quiet it was and beautiful scenery.

We stayed in a one-bedroom cabin and absolutely loved it. The room was spotless and cozy, and we were pleasantly surprised to find a brand-new couch and flat-screen TV, both of which looked older in the photos, so the upgrade was a nice touch. One of our favorite things was that the hot tub was always open. Sitting in it at 2 a.m. with nothing but quiet around was such a relaxing experience. Although we didn’t eat at the restaurant, the menu looked excellent and we’d definitely consider it next time. The highlight of our stay was the outstanding front desk staff, two incredibly friendly and helpful guys who went above and beyond. They even created a quiet space for me in the lobby to take a conference call, knowing we had kids with us and the cabin might get noisy. I think one of the guys names was Martin. Highly recommend this place and would absolutly come back!

Loved this spot; our whole group did! The pull-out couch was comfy for our movie night in, and we thoroughly enjoyed the hot tubs which were super clean and very warm. We would absolutely recommend this place to anyone seeking a quiet, lovely place to lay their head. My only recommendation to the property would be to add some curtains over all the windows to snuff the little bit of midnight sun that comes through the edges/slats. Thanks for having our group!

Nice location and cozy cottage, but sleeping arrangements were not ideal for a family. Two rooms with double lower bunk and single upper bunk. Had expected two rooms with double beds and a bunk bed in another area. Also, sofa had a pair of underwear under the cushions from previous guest
