Property was clean and in a beautiful location. Instructions for check in and out were clear and easy to follow. Very much appreciated that there was coffee and tea available for the first evening and morning. Soaps, body wash, laundry detergent, dish detergent, towels were also available on site. We liked that there were books and puzzles available. We enjoyed walking to Skálholt and walking to experience the Laugarás lagoon and restaurant was amazing. Hot tub was also enjoyable.

The communication and instructions from the owners were excellent. The documents and pictures provided were helpful for not only the property but also for the surrounding areas of interest. Two minor suggestions for improvement include stronger fans for heatwaves (we stayed in late July and the upstairs bedroom got quite toasty-which I am guessing are rare weather events) and instructions in English for the clothes washer. You would think Google translate would be helpful but we still cannot figure what the “impregnation” setting means! All in all it was a wonderful home base for ten family members exploring the beautiful country of Iceland.

This property was excellent in communicating to us the beauty of Iceland. The surrounding scenery as well as the access to so many amazing places made this a perfect place for us. It was also the perfect size for 6 adults and 3 teenagers. Wonderful place to stay.

Great place

Not too remote and not too close to the city, makes it a great place to try to view the northern light from the comfort of the home. Has a hot tub that you can relax in while waiting for it to appear at night.

House is beautiful and location is great. Views are amazing. House had everything we needed for 6 adults. Had an issue with the shower draining but the owners were easy to communicate with and responded to our concern immediately. Grateful to have opportunity to stay at such a lovely house and visit such a beautiful country.
