Perfect for us
We spent our children’s school break in Iceland—it was 2 families (10 people total; 6 of which are elementary / middle school kids). This house was perfectly situated for us to see all the highlights we’d mapped out, and had ample space for everyone to sleep and relax when at the house. The outdoor area was fantastic! Wonderful spot—this made our trip!

Amazing stay at the far end of the Golden Circle
So it’s my twins 21st birthday and I wanted to do something memorable. So I took them to Iceland and stayed at an amazing VRBO. Here are my top 3 reasons for 5 stars:
1. Location - it’s in a town that’s close to some of the main geologic attractions in Iceland (Gulfoss, the south coast, etc.). The town also has a supermarket and some surprisingly good restaurants (even a mushroom farmer who has a family restaurant).
2. The quality of the VRBO. Plenty of room for 5 adults in a new neighborhood with endless skyline views. Built in activities including a hot tub, cold tub, sauna, and outdoor shower.
3. Hidden surprises (in a good way) - we had a lot scheduled (white water rafting - 5 minutes away, a glacier hike - 1 hour away, and a visit to the secret lagoon - 5 minutes away). But the best part was that we had the morning free and we went for a hike on the mountain that we saw from our window. 15 minutes uphill and then a lake on top of the hill with views of numerous glaciers. You can’t beat it!!!
