Northern lights cosy

SarahRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
Absolutely lovely!! The house is so precious and clearly very loved. The interior was homey and cozy and the location was beautiful. My friend and I were able to drive to tons of amazing natural wonders with ease. The farther away spots were also worth it as the drive was beautiful. The amenities are exactly as promised and the beds were amazing to come back to after a long day. Would definitely stay again! It was a little hard to find the first time, since it was dark out, but in the light and getting familiar with the area, it was easy to find :) Lovely hosts and lovely home!!

A Beautiful Cottage Close to Geysir

AnnaRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a place with a great view thats quiet and peaceful. We stayed here for 4 days on a girls trip and it was everything we wanted-- being able to unplug and disconnect was fantastic. The hosts were super responsive and provided lots of easy to follow instructions for check-in/out and during out stay answered any questions we might have.

Luxury close to the capital

FionaRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This is such a beautiful place to stay. It has everything you need at the cabin and more. It is warm and cosy and such a relaxing place to come back to after full days out exploring Iceland. Alfa and Finnur were very helpful with quick responses to any questions we had as well as useful pre holiday advice. The beds were comfy and the cabin and clean and tidy inside and out. The decking area was a lovely place to sit and relax and listen to the birds. We will be recommending to friends and family

Perspective, Cozy vacation home in the craters

ElkeRating, 5 stars4 days ago
Audur's place is very comfortable and truly unique, ideal for a small group of friends or a family. The views are stunning and captivating in any whether. We arrived late in the evening after a long day of travel and were astonished by the welcome and care we experienced that evening. Audur is very kind. She shared many personal favorite sites with us. We will remember both the host and her place fondly as a highlight of our trip .

Beautiful private house by the Fjord with Hot Tub

JenniferRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
There are no words adequate to describe this little piece of heaven on earth. The three days I spent in Bjorgvin's cottage were by far the most magical part of my time in Iceland, including the unforgettable experience of watching whales from the hot tub on my last evening. Bjorgvin was welcoming and helpful in all his communication, the ferry crossing was lovely and simple, and the cottage very quickly came to feel like home to me. I hope I can return again someday.

Björkin - Cozy Cabin with excellent view

NicolaRating, 5 starstoday
Definitely in the top 2 places we stayed in Iceland. Árni and Petra’s cabin is cozy, well equipped and comfortable. They were great hosts reaching out with clear instructions well before our stay started. The views of Akureyri were out of this world, and as we lucked out with some sunny days, the deck overlooking the harbour was a lovely spot. Don’t miss the host manual, they had some great local spots that we checked out during our stay.

Garden Summerhouse/ Country Cottage

MichaelRating, 5 stars8 months ago
The cottage is a real beauty. Located in a small forest its a perfect, cozy retreat. It has everything needed, we felt at home. Away from busy roads, but still conveniently located to visit Akuteyri, Husavik or the Myvatn-Region. Would absolutely book again if we hopefully come back to that region somewhere in the future.

Field 1 cottage

SusanRating, 5 stars3 weeks ago
This cottage is precious! It’s just 5 minutes outside of town so conveniently located, and the grocery store is also 5 minutes away. The directions provided made it very easy to find. Our favorite experience was sitting on the back deck on the couches with wine watching the sunset around 10-11 pm! Also, hearing the birds chirping was a delight. Highly recommend staying here if you are looking to explore the South coast, Golden circle, or ferry to Westman Islands. Would definitely stay again!

Norðurkot, The Yellow Northern lights House.

DeeDeeRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Our stay was short but so memorable—we immediately felt at home. The location is stunning, with beautiful views of the sea and Snæfellsnes on a clear day. The birdlife was incredible, with ducks, Arctic terns, and eiders all around. We loved the peaceful setting and the cozy campfire right by the house. Though the home is older, it’s been thoughtfully renovated and felt fresh and bright. The loft was a fun touch (just be mindful of the steep stairs), and being just 10 minutes from the airport made it super convenient. A perfect spot for nature lovers!

Skarðshlíð II house 2, Cottage by Eyjafjallajökull

LilyRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
This is a great place to stay in the South area. It’s 30 minutes from Vik in a very beautiful setting. There is a sheep farm right next door too! You can watch the baby sheep from the windows or back porch. There is a house next door but you have complete privacy. The house is comfortable with ample amenities. The kitchen is well stocked which makes it easy to cook. The beds and bathroom are spacious and comfortable as well. Overall great place to stay!

Volcano Cottage well located in South Iceland

LisaRating, 5 stars1 week ago
Perfect little Cabin with the perfect location and an incredible Host! He let us stay one more night because of the bad weather and the winds so traveling was a bit dangerous. He didn’t charge us extra and wished us a safe trip, on top of the kind gesture it was my birthday as well so he unintentionally gave me a birthday present. We could not recommend this cabin enough!!
