This is a beautiful, private cottage in a lovely setting. The sea is on one side and glaciers on another. It is just outside a small town with multiple restaurants and very near the national park.

Great view, very comfortable

Olafur’s place was very nice. It was private from other houses, quite spacious and had most everything we needed. The view was amazing. The host gave wonderful directions and made us feel welcome. Very close to the coast great place to walk in the evening.

Lovely cottage in an incredible location.

The cottage was lovely and spacious. Communication was great including a nice guide to the area. The views were absolutely spectacular. Wish we could have stayed longer. If we ever make it back to Iceland we’ll definitely try to stay again.

A Perfect Stay!

Our family of 6 had a perfect stay in Arnarstapi. Plenty of space for our large family, excellent kitchen, and close to so many sites in the Snaefellsnes peninsula. The house was immaculate and had everything we needed for our stay! We hope to visit again, soon! Thank you for your hospitality.

This property is in a wonderful location for exploring the peninsula. The property was “as advertised” and the host was a good and thorough communicator. Note that it can be very windy in the area!

Warm views of Snaefells

The peninsula was windy and snowy, but the house was warm, and our 7 and 5 year old enjoyed the playroom after a day or exploring.

About the host

Hosted by Olafur Olafsson

I am a biologist working in business. My wife and I love Snæfellsnes and were hypnotized by the beauty of the area of Arnarstapi.

Why they chose this property

Our family loves the quiet surroundings of our cottage and we try to spend as much time their ourselves as possible. But we also feel that we have to give visitors to Iceland the great possibility to experience our cottage.
