Cosy house in a fantastic area
Nice place to stay with plenty to see around! I worked remotely here and enjoyed the kitties daily visits on the back porch! In unit laundry was wonderful and having all the appliances I needed- kettle, microwave! Thanks for the great stay!

Home, great location, fantastic view and patio
We enjoyed our stay at the lovely house. Our highlight was for sure the lovely living area with its huge windows to watch the ocean and the arriving planes as well as fabulous whirlpool :)

Perfect for holidays
Björgvin is a great host and his place was everything our group was looking for. Remote house, with a hot tub, grill and good vibes. The location and the view from the terrace is beautiful with only a few minutes drive to the nearest town. Björgvin was really friendly and offered his assistance if we needed anything which was a nice touch.

Charming house, romantic, spacious and beautiful!
Burma’s beautiful home is ideal for anyone who wants two bathrooms (hard to find in Iceland) and plenty of space. It’s in a quaint small town very close to the Golden Circle and not far from Selfoss, which has more substantial amenities. Easy drive to Gullfoss and Geysir, and a small grocery is within walking distance of the house. The views from the sunroom are beautiful. The kitchen is modern, functional, and spacious. The outdoor area, including the hot tub, is wonderful in the evening. The nearby restaurants, including those in Reykholt, are wonderful! We highly recommend this place for people who want extra space and don’t want to stay in the busy capital city. We’d stay here again in a heartbeat!

Selið Cottage Traditional w\ hot tub and lake view
This house is beautiful and the view is amazing. We loved soaking in the hot tub while gazing at the glacier in the distance, surrounded by trees. There are stairs to access the house, but we were able to navigate them just fine. The nearby town had a lovely spa, Laugarvatn Fontana, that we enjoyed, and we recommend the restaurant Linden. We stayed two nights and wish we could have stayed longer. The host was responsive and friendly. Highly recommend!

5 bedroom house with 3 bathrooms
I had a fantastic New Year in a beautiful Nordic family home. Jön's accommodation was beautiful and a wonderful resting place. It was fantastic to stay here in Iceland.

Cozy private house with Jacuzzi
Great home! Very stylish and comfortable. We felt very at home here. The hot tub was a great place to relax at the end of the day.

Spacious & warm family house on the Golden Circle

Cosy Northern Lights cottage on Golden Circle
Our family of six adults really enjoyed spending Christmas and New Year's at Bjork's place. It was warm and cozy, with underfloor heating keeping the slate tiles toasty, a big couch in the living room, and lots of windows to enjoy the views. The hot tub was amazing and we had stunning northern lights one night. The house is in a gated community a couple km off the road, and this road can be slippery, so a 4x4 car or jeep might be a good idea in winter. These same quiet roads were great for walks - not much traffic and wonderful views in any direction you choose to walk. The trash/recycling center handled all sorts of materials - even organics! Bjork was really helpful, going above and beyond to check out holiday hours for grocery stores and help us locate jumper cables. The house is a 15 minute drive to Selfoss (shoutout to Kronan) and 8 minutes to Kerid Crater. Hveragerdi is 20 minutes, with a wonderful bakery, a geopark where for a small fee you can boil an egg in a hot spring.

Cozy log home; in the heart of the south.
Great house with loads of windows and beautiful views everywhere you look. The house was super cute, too. The pictures don't do it justice. The host was responsive and went out of their way to be friendly.

Family Retreat with Indoor Jacuzzi & Game Room
We had a great time in Ari’s property. Everything is perfect and fully equipped, it is a warm and beautiful place. We walked around and also feed horses, it was fun. We will definitely come again if we visit Iceland in the future.

Luxury cabins with waterfront view
A great cabin for a large group - we had 6 adults with room to spare. No issues with hot water, but we ran into a late night flooding issue in cabin 1, which Arni responded to the next morning. Can prep a basic meal in the clean kitchen, lots of dishware available. Cabins are warm and are well insulated, with amazing views of that gorgeous lake. Pillows and blankets were so comfortable. This is a solid location for fishing if you’re into that, with an outdoor sink by the lake as well. We loved driving home and saying hi to the sheep, lamb, and horses. There’s laundry, which is great, but the dryer is less effective than we expected (if you’re used to American dryers) so just watch out for that. Internet is perfect from the common cabin but inaccessible from the others. Need to pack shampoo/conditioner/hair dryer. We loved our stay here but note: beware Google maps if it takes you on Grafningsvegur Efri and then Klifsskogur - a narrow road that closes (at night/always?).

Cozy Cottage, Mountain view
Loved Elena‘s place! Great to spend some relaxed time. Well equipped, convenient check-in and awesome views from the terrace. Big recommendation :)

Country House
Guðrún’s was a great host. The place was very clean, had all listed amenities, and Guðrún was very responsive! Definitely worth it.

Luxury Retreat with Hot Tub
This place is great! Very cozy and close to the golden circle and Selfoss, which has great restaurants! We especially enjoyed the cozy vibe of the interior furniture and kitchen. We also really enjoyed the hot tub and cold plunge combo. Magnús was really responsive when we had questions, and even got on the phone to walk us through how to fill the hot tub and turn off the lights so we could better view the aurora!

Golden Circle House
Egill's place is a beautiful place and very well maintained. It is centrally located in Golder Circle route. It is a very ambient and nice place. It is a very cleaned unit. She is a great responsive and friendly. Selfoss has a good grocery store and other bakery places nearby. She and her husband both are very friendly and great people to deal with. I would sure come back again to her place.

Golden Circle Villa - Hot Tub & Sauna
Very nice house with amazing views

Minimalist home with a hot tub
My family and I had an amazing stay at this Airbnb. The location was perfect—close enough to downtown, but still in a quiet, peaceful area. The home was spotless, beautifully decorated, and equipped with everything I needed to feel comfortable. We also loved the thoughtful touches throughout the house, from cozy blankets to the coffee pots. This place made our trip even more memorable.

This cabin has everything you need for a peaceful vacation

Light and Airy Living by the Sea
This host is fantastic. I originally booked the wrong date, and she worked with me to adjust it even though it was my mistake and the booking was non refundable. The home was large and beautiful, and well priced - especially in comparison to other options. The kitchen was amazing.

Luxurious Lakeside Villa 35 min from Reykjavik
An absolutely stunning lake side villa close to the famous Golden Circle. We used it as our base for a week to explore Iceland with friends. We were two families, with three children in total. The villa is simply stunning, so beautiful and the perfect home away from home. We all loved returning back in the evenings and enjoying the sauna and hot tub. Then the grown ups sat up late to take in the never ending sun outside, snuggled with blankets and fire pit for company. We lost track how many photos we all took of the lake. We also enjoyed our coffee in the morning over looking the lake and running the loop around the lake. Communication was excellent and Telma couldn't have been more responsive or helpful. We 100% recommend and will be back!

Family friendly home in Selfoss
We had a great time staying here. Its fully equipped place with all the comforts one need. Deanne is always quick to respond to any query/request. Highly recommend.

Beautiful villa close to the golden circle
We had a wonderful stay with our family of 8 adults! The host was incredibly responsive and accommodating—he provided an air mattress when we needed one and even came by to turn down the heat when it got a little warm in the evenings. The house was very comfortable, well-equipped, and had everything we needed and more. The hot tub was a highlight—perfect for relaxing after long days of exploring. The location is central and made it easy to see all the must-see sights. It's perfect for exploring the Golden Circle and also a reasonable drive to Diamond Beach and the Glacier Lagoon if you’re up for a road trip. We highly recommend this place and would love to stay here again next time we’re in Iceland!
