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!

Siggi and Nanna are AMAZING

The home was very clean, Nanna picked us up and even went to a grocery store so we could get a few items. Siggi took us to the airport for an amount outside of the vrbo rate. The home was well stocked with any and all amenities needed. We would stay here again.

Great place to stay, lovely hosts

We absolutely loved staying here to explore Reykjavik and the Golden Circle. Our hosts were so kind, including directing us to a playground the kids loved and the more affordable grocery stores. Apartment was clean and comfortable, and we appreciated the maps that were available as we planned our excursions each day.

Great location and friendly host

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.

Hope to Visit Again!

We had a wonderful stay at this home in Iceland. The home was in the perfect location just a few minutes from downtown Reykjavik and a short walk to a beautiful view of the ocean and local lighthouse. The owners were very helpful and friendly. The use of their car and Siggi’s offer to transfer us back and forth to the airport was all very convenient. The home was clean and well stocked with everything we needed. We hope to visit again!

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 ❤️

Iceland, the warmest country on Earth

The apartment was as advertised, very comfortable, plenty of room, nice hot shower, and even a washer/dryer combination. The big benefits of this rental are the use of the car and the transportation that the host (Siggi) provides to and from the airport (for a fee). It was so convenient to not have to worry about transportation. I highly recommend using the transport service he provides. The conversations you'll experience are worth it. We chose this location based on the reviews from others and they all had such great experiences with the hosts. They provided more than a place to stay and a car, but a home away from home. <3

Siggi is awesome!

Siggi made our trip to Iceland so easy. He picked us up at the airport for $110, which we thought was a deal. Siggi also showed us where the grocery store was in his neighborhood. We saved lots of money and hassle by buying food there and eating at the apartment. We also enjoyed using the car to drive out to the Blue Lagoon - again a money and time saver. Also, we used his car to go into Reykjavik, which was just a short drive away. Siggi also gave us a ride to the bus station to meet our hiking partners, which was a huge help. The apartment is clean and comfortable - I highly recommend staying there!

Great location.

This place fit my husband 11 year old daughter, and I perfectly. It was super close to Reykjavik, very short, five minute drive to all the action. I love that it was so close to the ocean and walking paths. There was a lot to see just on that little peninsula. The house was super clean. The kitchen was just the right size. And we had plenty of space for the three of us. The best part was the use of the car. That was a significant savings for us while we traveled. I would not hesitate to stay here again, and I’ve already shared about it with my friends who are planning a trip to Iceland. We even got picked up and dropped off from the airport which, although we paid more for in our opinion was well worth it. It reduced a lot of our stress. Especially with our odd flight times.

Lovely appt in not far from the town

Lovely appt. Host is amazing, gave us lots of tips on where to travel. Appt has lots of books on history and lots of maps of iceland, if u have time to read. Appt is well equiped, oven, micro, kettle ,dishwasher, washing machine, crockery.....our stay was very comfortable. Wifi is good... tv had a few english channels , you can connect to netflix or apple tv if u want. Room was nice and cozy, and Siggi had put 2 extra foldout beds for the kids in the lounge..Supermarket and fuel pump nearby. Well equiped. We are vegeterian and had no issues finding food to suit us. We had an automatic suburu outlander, slightly old but well maintained and took us round everywhere that we wanted to go. Siggi picked us up from the airport and dropped us off as well. If returning to any non EU destination allow at least 3.5hrs on the return, (1 hr to get there) and the rest for the airport. The queue to checkin was long, and the immigration queue was very long. Rijkavik town is not far. We parked at the kronan supermarket by the marina which was free, and walked from there, about 20 mins walk ,but we were walking slowly and taking may pictures along the way.The appt is located in a lovely quiet residential area.... turn right from the drive and u can see the sea, turn left and u can see the sea as well.....lovely. Anyway to cut the long story short.... it is a lovely appt, with really lovely host. Iceland is very very beautiful. Best place to explore nature at its best.
