Beautiful home and location!
With the big windows throughout the home we felt like we were part of the landscape. Such a beautiful view - including a Northern Lights show. There were seven of us - 2 families - and the accommodations were perfect. Lots of beds and two large bathrooms, one for each family. We made use of the hot tub which was relaxing and picturesque. I’ve never seen a kitchen so well equipped, and a wonderful large table for all to eat together. The living room was lovely and there were games for the kids. We highly recommend this home. Agni was responsive to any questions and we thank him and his family for opening their home to us. Wonderful memories!

Great Location
Highly Recommended!!! Wife, two kids, and I travelled to Iceland to see the natural land and this home certainly met our needs. We couldn’t have been happier with the location. In addition, the place was very clean and full of all the appliances we needed to have a few family meals. We loved the Hot Tub and was lucky to see the Northern Lights.

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.
