We had a wonderful stay! The host was responsive and answered all of our questions. She was very flexible and accommodated any changes we had! The house was clean and the views were incredible! We saw the northern lights several times during our stay over the water from inside of the hot tub. Would definitely come back again!

Amazing view, Amazing house, Amazing stay

Our family had an amazing time at this place… It was our first time in Iceland and it did not disappoint us. The only set back was the code to get in to the house was a little stressful because it took awhile but other than that everything was smooth sailing… this is a great place to stay with your family.

Amazing Property!

We like to be away from the beaten path. This spot was isolated, but very well appointed. It is amazing. You will hear no neighbors or cars and enjoy watching the seals.

I think for the price point it was an okay stay- we had issues with the toilet flushing, and the hot tub not working or getting hot (which was a main reason for booking) Also the beds were more like couches, so I would be cautious if you actually do have 14 people sleeping inside the home. There were some good parts to the stay- like the beautiful kitchen and the location of the property.

Great Location!

We loved our stay - right in the water! Views were amazing, kitchen was well stocked and the rooms comfortable. There are only 3 bedrooms though - but plenty of beds. We had one upset teen who had to sleep in the family room which was a bummer. But the house is nice and the private guest house was a great quiet space.

Modern waterfront

The home was great for a family stay. Everything was supplied in the kitchen, baths, and living areas. The views were fantastic, great privacy, and comfortable beds. Fabulous kitchen, open and easy to accommodate a large party. The only things that need attention are the grill which was broken, and the dryer did not put out enough heat to actually dry any clothes, we hung ours, but we had this issue in all three homes we rented in Iceland. Overall, great place and we would rent it again.
