Laugardalslaug Geothermal Pool and Grasagardur Botanical Garden are also worth visiting. Discover the area's water adventures with nearby swimming, or enjoy the great outdoors with cycling.
Our stay and our host were absolutely amazing! Johannes was kind, communicative, and informative! It was a blessing to stay in his family home. Quiet neighborhood within walking distance to great coffee/bakery, the botanical gardens and an ice cream shop. When we return to Iceland, we will stay here again!
We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful unique home. The amenities were as described and everything was clean and comfortable. The location was fantastic and the bus to downtown Reykjavik was frequent and very easy to figure out for these first-time visitors. Thank you for a lovely visit!
Excellent choice - would stay again. Very spacious with updated appliances (washer/dryer combo) kept us with fresh clothing throughout our week’s visit. Easy access to downtown (my son ran along the coast every evening back and forth to the city).
This house was perfect for our group of 5 adults. The host is very pleasant and eager to please. Conveniently located. We would definitely stay here again.
Beautiful, convenient, clean, cozy, and plenty of space for a family of six. Very friendly host. Very nice place. We would stay there again. Thank you!
The house was charming and perfect for us. Lots of character. Room for everyone. We thought we would take the bus places but ended up driving and we didn't find parking to be an issue. Nearby park/gardens that the kids enjoyed. Giant public pool nearby. It was a great choice for us.

Property is beautiful. Had trouble with the blinds. A bit far from the City and shops.
Had a wonderful stay. Quiet neighborhood with some things within walking distance, but downtown Reykjavik super close and a great location if you're doing day trips around the area.
We arrived and checked in at 3pm met by Johannes. We received a welcome and tour of the property to be sure we knew how to use everything- including recycling which was great!The rooms are all cozy and furnished nicely. Very homey and welcoming feel. Kitchen is completely stocked with all necessary equipment and the grocery store is conveniently close (we shopped at Bonus). It has a nice easy parking spot that is covered and right by the front door. The bathrooms are great and well stocked with towels and extra bedding. There is a washer/dryer in the master bath which we used several times for drying out clothing. Check out was easy. I highly recommend this property. It was close to everything we did (Downtown, Golden Circle, South Coast drive, The Harpa, etc..).
Our family of 5, with three teens, stayed at the house. It is at a great location and the house was very comfortable, exceeding our expectations. I would definitely recommend this place!
Great location for a home base in Reykjavik. Host was very accommodating and the property was well outfitted with anything we needed. Definitely recommend as a family friendly property!
Great location, short walk to ice cream shop. 10-15 minute drive to city center and convenient to hopping on highway to Golden circle. Highly enjoyed our stay
My wife and I, along with two friends, spent a week. Accommodations were great and convenient to the city. Hosts were very helpful and we really enjoyed our visit and all of Iceland!
This house was a joy to stay in. A beautifully built genuine mid-century modern house with a great location. Easy access to downtown Reykjavik and highways made it convenient for all of our activities.
The owner was pleasure to meet and work with for check-in and gave us a tour of the house.
I would definitely recommend a stay here.
Family friendly place and neighborhood with excellent access to public transport for shopping, restaurants, museums etc. Hosts were excellent in terms of communication and arrangements. Would definitely stay there again!
With 4 bedrooms, this place was perfect for our family of 5. Comfortable, nice neighborhood. Space for parking. Easy 10 minute drive to numerous restaurants. Highly recommend.
Everything about this charming home and its hosts was an absolute delight. Nestled atop a hill, you get lovely views when seated in multiple spots around the house. There is a wonderful 360° viewpoint a short walk from the home, and its central location makes it a breeze to get anywhere by bus or car. Me and my family were able to many meals at home in the well appointed kitchen, utilizing local meats and produce. We are all looking forward to the next visit we will make, and are sure to be booking this home again!
The house was in a great central location with easy access to the bus line and plenty of room for our family. Communication with the host was great! Enjoyed hearing the history of this unique home.

Cool, immaculate home in a great location.
We felt at home immediately here. Iceland was amazing and staying at this location only enhanced our experience. Thank you!
this house was just what our family needed for a very last minute booking. The host went out of his way to make sure we have everything we needed, and gave us a personal tour of his family home. We felt very confident and comfortable staying here and really enjoyed being a little outside the city center. Overall a very relaxing stay with plenty of room for a family of five to spread out.
