Perfect start

Started our trip here. The house is a destination in itself. The views from the property are amazing. The fact that it puts you in the middle of several must sees is just a bonus. The communication from the owners was great. Would definitely rent this one again.

Very nice Golden Circle resident with privacy

The property was very spacious for a family of 6. The bathrooms were large, bedrooms were very nice. The extra bed in the laundry room came in handy. The home is down a private gravel road. It had a great view. The owner always responded very timely. It was in the heart of the golden circle and 45 mins to Selfoss. Bio was about 2 hours. My family throughly enjoyed the house and hot tub and would stay here again.

Amazing base to explore Iceland

Fantastic location. Less than two hours drive from the airport and you walk through the front door to a real 'wow' moment. The views are incredible. We visited in April and couldn't be happier with the property. One night we were watching a family movie but the northern lights stole the show. If you are looking for a great house in a fantastic location for a family holiday, look no further, this is it.

Beautiful Home

The house is beautiful, modern, and conveniently located to most of the sights on the golden circle! We saw the aurora lights every night we stayed on the deck. Really enjoyed the warm floors and water pressure in the showers, and well-stocked kitchen. Plently of space for our family of 5 and amazing views all around. Easy 10 out of 10, highly recommend!

Mixed feelings about my stay

I came here with a group of 9 family members for my sisters birthday. The hosts were great with communication prior to the stay, allowing us to have a smooth check-in process. When we arrived, we were overwhelmed by the amazing view and the overall size of the property. However, the host informed us that there is a possibility of mice entering the property AFTER the cancellation period had passed which we thought was a little unfair. Furthermore during the stay, there were multiple power cuts which had caused the TV or the WI-Fi to stop working (which was needed as the signal for mobile data wasn’t great). In addition to this, we initially thought it was great that we didn’t need to do too much grocery shopping as there was a lot of food and drinks left at the property (perhaps from previous guests) however a lot of the items are expired. It’s incredibly important that this is checked as I ended up having the hot chocolate and felt really sick after. Finally I’d like to raise, the property description initially said 5 bedrooms and didn’t specify that one was in the laundry room (I can see the host has changed this now). This took us by surprise and led one of our family members to have a really uncomfortable stay is an untidy room. We raised this with the host and expected an understanding response however to our surprise, the response was quite patronising and rude. The host was quite defensive and didn’t take in any of my points. Just some things to consider.

Amazing views

The views from this house are breathtaking! We stayed here for a few nights and used it to explore the Golden Circle and even all the way down to Vik. Reference the online instructions that the host provides, because some of the printed out house information (like hot tub usage) in the house is outdated. We had a wonderful stay and would definitely recommend this to families and to others wanting to stay in the area!

Simple and beautiful

This is a beautiful property. The house itself is built at the edge of a steep hill, which offers a stunning view of the surrounding Iceland mountains. We were very comfortable, with the heated floors providing us with great warmth. Again, the location of this secluded cabin cannot be understated. Our group of 7 adults and two children under 2 easily fit well in the seperate bedrooms, with the hosts being very generous and accommodating, especially with kids. The hot tub was a welcome supplement to the already generous package. We couldn’t be happier with our stay.

Amazing location, home, and experience with the owner!

This property is as great as it looks on the site! Wonderful countryside location near many of the Golden Circle sites and Secret Lagoon. Well-equipped, perfectly maintained, and offers 180* views over the valley from the living room, outdoor deck, and the hot tub. The owner provided helpful, detailed information before our rental and was almost instantly responsive to queries while we were there. If you want to do more than take bus tours from Reykjavik, I can't recommend this place enough!

Elegant comfort.

This house is stunning. The architecture is beautiful and very functional. What a kitchen! There is a geothermal hot tub. My family loved it. The best feature is how the house maximizes the location and view. Three sides of the house are glass and if we could have seen the northern lights(sadly overcast) it would have been a spectacular place to enjoy them. Thank you for having us we felt so blessed and wish your family all the best.

We greatly enjoyed our stay at this home and would highly recommend it. It was spacious, clean, well appointed and very comfortable. The host was responsive and helpful with questions we had prior to arrival. The highlight of our trip was being able to watch the northern lights on the deck. The home also has a spectacular panoramic view during the day. The location was great for day trips to spots along the southern coast and around the Golden Circle.
