This was an excellent choice for a place to stay while visiting Iceland with my husband and daughter. It was in a great location, within a 10 to 15 minute drive to Reykjavik. There was also a cute little park with a lake about 5 minutes away where we were able to see the northern lights

Very clean, comfortable and quiet. My only criticism is the extreme sulfur smell from the water. We will, however, stay again the next trip to this awesome country.
The property is a separate unit with a separate entrance. It has updated furnishing and appliances. The location is convenient - 10-15 min to the city centre by car. Very close to shopping at Kringlan or Costco.
The host is very responsive with questions and helped us resolve a few minor issues very quickly.
Everything is up to par and as stated. The only obstacle we encountered was that my husband kept hitting his head on beam of the loft ( he is 5'11"). We had to hang some articles of clothing there to remind him of the low beam! Other than that the place was very comfortable and surprisingly spacious in the lounge, dining and kitchen area. The bedroom is small yet comfy and the bathroom pretty cramp.The location is very convenient to Reykjavik and there were many jogging and cycling paths in the neighborhood. the supermarket was also conveniently located less than 10 minutes away. Plus if you take a drive out ti the shoreline, there is a nice view of the Hallgrimskirkja church across the water and you can visit the President of Iceland's state home!Parking was really easy for our very large Toyota Land Cruiser.
This property is fantastic. The location is excellent, with the town, supermarket, and restaurants all within a 10-minute drive. The apartment is clean and incredibly charming. The kids had a bed located in a loft, which they absolutely adored. The kitchen is spacious enough to prepare meals before heading out to explore Iceland. The parking is conveniently located in front of the apartment. Additionally, the house is situated at the end of a dead-end street, providing extra convenience and privacy. I always like to see the exterior of a house, but unfortunately, there are no available pictures. I checked Google Maps, and the house appears white on the map; however, it is currently undergoing renovations, and the exterior is now black and brown. Therefore, the Google image is outdated.
Had a wonderful visit to Reykjavík. Sara was very helpful and made our stay a pleasant one. Great location. Thanks for the accommodations.

About the host
Hosted by Sara
My name is Sara and I have lived in Iceland my whole life. I have 3 children. We travel a lot and love to stay at other peoples homes, but we also love to share our apartment with other travellers like us.
Why they chose this property
Gardabaer is a high end town and only 10 minutes driving from Reykjavik city centre. The neighbourhood is safe and kid friendly.
What makes this property unique
We care about a good night sleep, thats why we have really good mattresses in both of the beds. The kitchen is full size and has all the equipment you need to cook a meal. We have washing machine , dryer, Nespresso coffee machine, toaster, microwave and a washing machine, because... you know.. you should not be doing your dishes on a vacation! The apartment is really cozy and has a good atmosphere. Free parking on the lot.
