Great Snowy Stay

Excellent property and location. Wonderful views and close enough to town to get what you need, but far enough away you have peace and solitude. The views are incredible. House is very well furnished and comfortable.

Isolated Bliss

Our family of four enjoyed our quiet stay. There was plenty of things to do during the day: whale watching, waterfalls, lava falls, shopping and dining. The view from the house was lovely and we really liked soaking in the hot pot after a full day of sightseeing.

Comfortable stay with breathtaking views

This is a gorgeous property with stunning views. Everything inside and out was truly perfect. We thoroughly enjoyed the hot tub, morning coffees on the deck, and lounging until late listening to music. The entire space was meticulously decorated and very clean. Staying here is worth shifting your itinerary if necessary. Make sure to go to Akureyri too. It’s just a short drive away, and a wonderful place to visit.

Lovely home!

We loved the location of the home, not too far from town but far enough to be peaceful. Views were amazing and house was very comfortable. It does not have a freezer so this is just something to plan for.

This is a nice modern house in a fantastic location overlooking the fjord. One of our favorite stays in Iceland. Note that the house was missing some basics, such as shampoo, body wash and coffee (but there is a coffee maker), which is quite unusual for Iceland and was a bit of an unpleasant surprise - make sure to plan accordingly. Otherwise, a perfect stay and a good base for exploring Lake Myvatn, Husavik, Akureyri, etc.

Really comfortable villa with a wonderful view

We really enjoyed our stay. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen fully equipped, just bring your own coffee. The hot tub and the view are mind blowing. We have been able to spot whales in the distance (bring binnoculars) from the hot tub.

Simply perfect

My wife an I had an absolutely lovely stay. The house is beautiful, and the location is just amazing. We enjoyed the view over the fjord from the hot pot, and watching the Northern Lights right out of the bedroom. Just a short drive from Akureyri but a perfect little secluded hideaway with all the conveniences of home.
