Kid-friendly vacation rentals in Iceland

The renovated water tower is a lovely and clean home. There are large sliding doors on each floor that open up to give access to the outdoors or cool off the home. The main bathroom with a shower is located on the ground floor and comes with shampoo, conditioner and shower gel. There is also a hair dryer and many towels available. The bathroom on the second level was small and could be accessed through the main bedroom. The kitchen was bright and open. There was plenty of seating for the 4 of us, although the bench seat by the kitchen table could be thoroughly washed. Plenty of dishes and kitchen essentials. Washer and drying rack were a pleasant addition to the home and made traveling light easier. The rooms were cozy and the beds are comfortable. The stairs are steep but easy to navigate for our children (ages 7 and 9). The views from inside and from the deck are beautiful. The two birds nesting outside are quite friendly. Earlier guests named them Chuck and Larry.

Absolutely amazing spot & even better hosts. My husband and I came to Iceland for a vow renewal after having to change our wedding plans due to COVID 5 years ago (we originally planned an elopement in Iceland), and Anthony went above and beyond to make sure we had the best time, and we did! Overall, this was an absolutely outstanding stay. Every single thing we needed was managed quickly & Anthony went beyond anything we could have asked to take care of us. Plus, the airbnb itself was so charming. Definitely recommend if looking for a quaint port town close the Reykjavik! I wouldn’t come here for a more isolated experience or to get away from the hustle of Reykjavik, but I think the port town was a great alternative to staying in Reykjavik itself.

We loved our stay here, the place was super clean and comfortable for our family of 5. The decor and furnishings were so lovely, we loved all the details. The upstairs and chess board were a fun spot! Highly recommend this place!

Great place to stay. Esther was a really good host. Highly recommend!

we really enjoyed our stay. The cottage is setup very well and very comfortable. The location is perfect for exploring the south west of Iceland.

What an amazing place. The cottage is located in a beautigful fjord with an uncredibld view towards the sea and mountains partly covered in snow. We enjoyed our stay to the fullest. Highly recommend staying in this beautiful cottage as it is a great spot to chill, relax and have a great time with family and friends. We will be back. Thank you so much guys! Keep doing the great job. Vatsel and Pia

We had an amazing stay here! The host provided clear check in instructions and check out was very easy. The cabin was very clean and had all the amenities we needed. It was lovely to watch the sunset from the decks and an extra plus with the property cat coming to visit us! Highly recommend

This place is a dream. The pictures absolutely do not do it justice. The surroundings, the interior, and the great communication made our stay an exceptional experience. We hope we can return someday to our new favorite place in the world.

Great location in Reykjavik. Walkable to most attractions near central Reykjavik. Parking garage around corner but is closed from Midnight to 7am. Only had an issue with those times once. They pull down steel doors so you can’t enter or exit. You could hear the neighbors but they offered ear plugs for you to pick u on 4th floor. Also had bags of ice for your use ( this was a great luxury in Iceland)! We also used the guest washer and dryer (nice perk). Would stay again!

We couldn’t have dreamt of a better location for a trip to Iceland. Anna was superb in the least up and gave som many helpful suggestions. She was an impeccable host. So kind. Friendly and helpful. Thank you both for an idyllic stay.

Majoitukseen oli helppo saapua. Asunto oli kaunis ja siisti. Kuivaava pyykinpesukone oli majoituksen kohokohta. Turvallinen ja rauhallinen tunnelma koko reissumme ajan.

From the airport 10 minutes by car, the flat is ideal for the first accommodation in the evening, yet quiet. We had everything we needed there and it was just 300 metres on foot to a small, well-stocked supermarket

Home in Reykjavík was perfect - great location with parking , great kitchen, bathroom, and super comfortable bed - I loved it. Prior to arrival Thordis sent me a number of messages which included details on the apartment and its use, and information about sites of interest in the Reykjavik environs. Thanks so much Thordis, hope to stay with you again soon.

We stayed for three nights and found the place to be very comfortable for two people for that length of stay. Very efficiently designed unit and a fully stocked kitchen for four people. It's in a great central spot for exploring the Golden Circle and the South Coast. The farm is very convenient for the ring road. The building is a duplex and we never heard the other renters in the space next door at all, so it seems to be well insulated for sound. We really enjoyed watching the horses on the farm and all the birds that flew in to the small river next to the rental. The farm cat will insist on saying hello every day, adorable!

This was my second time staying, and I will continue to return whenever I go to Iceland. This place is great . . . super clean, awesome bathroom (including washer and dryer, which really come in handy for refreshing our clothing supply on trips), comfortable beds, and a nice, small kitchen area. The location is perfect as a base for exploring the Snæfellsnes Península, and Ólafsvík is a great stop in and of itself, with a beautiful waterfall overlooking the town, which you can hike to the top of . . . a highlight of our trip. Small, grocery store nearby, as well as a restaurant and small diner at the gas station down the street. Thanks to Kristin for providing this little gem of a place to stay!

We really enjoyed our stay at this lovely little house on the hill. The views were beautiful, and the home was thoughtfully laid out and very comfortable. The host was friendly, helpful, and made communication easy throughout our stay. Highly recommend for a peaceful and relaxing getaway!

“Thanks, Olafur! We really loved staying at Lake Mývatn. Your place is beautiful — we especially loved the design and the view from the balcony. Wish we could’ve stayed longer!”

This apartment is spacious, tidy, and well-equipped. It’s not the newest or most recent, but it’s still in fairly good condition. I wish there were a tumble dryer in addition to the laundry machine. The Wi-Fi is super fast, and the location is great—right in the heart of Reykjavik. Parking is just a two-step walk from the front door. The neighbourhood is quiet and nice, but it can be a bit hard to find at night. I wish there were a photo guide that would lead you to the front door. Overall, it’s a great apartment, and I’d definitely recommend it.

Baldur’s place was the perfect spot for spending a few days in south Iceland. It was a short drive to see the Puffins at the Ingólfshöfði nature preserve and we hiked to a glacier and some waterfalls at the national park just 10 minutes away. We had lamb burgers at the convenience store about 5 minutes down the road and they were reasonably priced and delicious! Baldur made us feel right at home and even gave me some bread to feed his horses. The only negative thing about the apartment was not enough comfortable seating for two people to relax in the evening. But the bench out front was a nice place to take in the beauty of the surroundings there until it got too chilly.

Extremely clean unit and hosts were extremely accommodating to our late check in. There was fresh water in the fridge and fruit on the table. Every detail was thought of, including an extensive DVD collection, alarm clock and extra outlets in the bedroom, hangers for clothes and anything one would need furnished in the restroom. The beds and pillows were extremely comfy. A bonus was being able to park in the driveway. We had a short stay due to our travel schedule, but thoroughly enjoyed our stay and hope to stay here again! Thanks Erna Maria & Gummi. —Ashley & Jodi Hoye

The Airbnb was easily accessible and well equipped with washing machine, dryer and fully equipped kitchen. There was also a designated parking spot for your vehicle. Magnus was responsive and extremely helpful in answering any queries. Would recommend this place

Logement au calme avec tous le confort nécessaire :) très beau cadre. Je recommande !

Beautiful apartment at a new development, easily reachable by car. We found everything we needed here as a couple visiting Iceland for the first time. The place is very clean and modern, and is a cosy and comfortable base while exploring the stunning country.

WOW! what an amazing place to stay!!!! I have endless things to say about our experience here. the views and surroundings were immaculate. so peaceful and such a wonderful way to wake up in the mornings. everything was so clean and the rooms / beds were so comfortable. the bonus was the little spa area, the facilities were so clean and amazing. plenty of room to change, bathroom, showers, sauna. and the outdoor waterfall hot tubs were perfect temperature while it was cold outside. I would 100% stay here again!
