Holiday rentals with a fire pit in Iceland

Beyond our expectations! The house was perfect , clean, peaceful and felt like home. The host is so friendly and helpful and helped us feel settled right away. The Views were unbelievable! The Location was so nice for us as we were only in Iceland for 5 days but we got to visit so many places from Selfoss. I would go back in a heartbeat ! Thanks for this beautiful Airbnb for making the trip extra special for my family! More than 5 stars !

We enjoyed our stay and would return! The cabin is in a secluded neighborhood with open fields, but there is one neighboring cabin right next door. There is a relatively tall privacy fence all the way around, but if there had been guests staying next door at the same time as us, we likely would have heard some voices if they were outside too. Luckily, the neighboring cabin was unoccupied during our stay. We made great use of the hot tub and loved listening to the birds and looking at the gorgeous open fields and distant mountains. The home was clean and everything was in working order.

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!

We stayed wishing to catch the Northern Lights and we were lucky enough to do so each night and be there for a huge solar storm. We ventured out the first night and after that realized we were able to stay comfy at our airbnb and see them both in the front yard and backyard. The house was spacious and our children 7 & 1 loved the books and toys available. We were offered a portable crib and high chair which were convenient. There were plenty of novels for adults and a variety of books on Iceland. There is a washer and large drying rack, dishwasher, and full kitchen which was wonderful since it is a serene spot you can relax and not run down the road 15 minutes for food or coffee. I enjoyed walking the road to the church and admiring the horses next door. The location is remote and going to parks or the city required an hour drive. Our host was gracious and extended our check out which was helpful. Thank you for your hospitality.

Jon's place in Flúðir was a delightful surprise! The space was incredibly comfortable and spacious, perfect for exploring the stunning Icelandic countryside. The bathroom was a particular highlight, feeling more like a luxurious 5-star hotel than a vacation rental. The place was fully equipped with everything I needed, making our stay truly hassle-free. Jon was also very responsive and helpful, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience.

Stayed here for (unfortunately only) one night with a group of six people. Lovely house, very clean and with everything you need. Enjoyed every second of it. Four people could sleep upstairs and two downstairs with two separate bathrooms. Two minutes walking distance from village centre, port and Hering museum. And a beautiful view over the city and the fjord. Big recommendation! :)

Our stay was great! Our host was so friendly and responsive to any questions we had! Her recommendations were spot on for food, hiking trails and the local community! We will be back for sure!

Absolutely stunning views and an unbeatable location. The host was incredibly welcoming, easy to communicate with, and their pets made the stay even more delightful. Our whole family had a wonderfully relaxing time—we’d love to return!

Cozy little house with a breathtaking view 🤩 Cats and dogs are adorable 😻 🐕 Our hosts were very kind and pleasant. The hot tub is obviously a plus!

Nice place with all you need. Good location and easy to find, right on the main road with an amazing view.

A beautiful apartment that looks just like the photos! Comfy beds, spacious living room, well-stocked and modern kitchen. And super close to the downtown, many parks, and coastline. We really enjoyed our stay here!

Beautiful town and breath taking surroundings.. the apartment was very well placed and nice

Disa’s place was perfect for us, cozy and stylish in a beautiful setting. Not too far from town but felt remote. Very comfortable bed, refreshing shower. We appreciated making coffee in the Moccamaster.

Even though the weather did not cooperate with our plans on this trip, having Soffia’s cozy apartment to come back to saved the day. This is one of the cleanest Air BNB’s we have ever stayed in. The kitchen had everything we needed, the bed was wonderfully comfortable, and the shower piping hot! There is a wonderful museum in Akureyri that has an amazing collection of maps and we loved Kaffi Ilmur for the delicious soups and pastries. Unfortunately we did not get to go whale watching because the weather was poor, but we can definitely recommend Baccala for the fish and chips! Soffia is an amazing host. She responded quickly to messages and was very, very thoughtful. We look forward to returning and cannot recommend Soffia’s cozy apartment enough.

Thank you for your great hospitality and life lessons while we explored your beautiful country! Our most breathtaking day was driving up to Snæfellsjökull Peninsula/National Park. Your providing a car with the airbnb was so appreciated- as was the pickup from the airport and the stop to see your "friend". Thanks for making us feel at home while traveling abroad.

This was one of our favorite stays during our trip to Iceland! Such a gem! The apartment was amazing with an incredible view of the surrounding landscape and very clean and modern interior design. They also have the cutest dog!! We also had the best view of the northern lights during our stay!

We felt very comfortable in this sweet vacation home. The house was furnished with great attention to detail and had a beautifully large terrace for the children to romp around, including a trampoline and zip line. From there, we could easily reach many excursion destinations. Thank you for letting us enjoy such a pleasant stay with you.

lovely little cabin over looking a marsh/pond with lots of interesting birds.

This cabin was our favorite place is Iceland, it really surpassed our expectations. We were able to spot Auroras Boreales right from the deck. Thank you so much for a great stay

We had an unforgettable stay at this beautiful home near Þingvellir National Park. The views were absolutely breathtaking! Whether we were enjoying our morning coffee or soaking in the hot tub under the midnight sun, the scenery never stopped impressing us. The hot tub and sauna were perfect after long days of exploring and made the experience feel like a true Icelandic escape. Our host was fantastic! Super responsive and helpful throughout the entire stay. They even arranged a thoughtful welcome basket with wine and snacks, which made us feel instantly at home. We couldn’t have asked for a better base for our Iceland adventure. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful stay, the cabin was lovely and the location was absolutely beautiful! Thor and Ryan were incredibly friendly and responsive hosts who made everything a breeze. Highly recommend!

Beautiful cabin in one of the few forested mountain valleys in Iceland. Barrel sauna and cold plunge into the lake was absolutely fantastic. Beautiful waterfalls east of cabin (4x4 vehicle) and natural hot springs in area. Caught a couple brown trout from shore. Would/will return in the future

Impeccable accommodation, very well located if you are looking for peace and quiet. There's everything you need to spend the night there. I highly recommend it!

It has been the 3rd time I stayed here. As always, it was a wonderful stay.
