Family-friendly holiday rentals in Ísafjörður

We loved staying at Kolbrun’s place, it was perfect for my family. The house is large, comfortable and beautifully presented throughout. It was ideally situated to explore the peninsula in a quiet area away from the main road, but also close to the supermarket and facilities of Stykkishólmur. The view from the terrace and the hot tub/sauna were the icing on the cake. Kolbrun was very helpful and responsive as a host.

What an absolute gem! The home was beautiful. The location was amazing. The hot tub was delightful. The kitchen was fantastic. Wish we could have spent our entire time in Iceland here!

I can’t say enough positive things about our stay here. Our family loved Hjortur’s home and the small village. The view was stunning! We had everything we needed. The home was so thoughtfully outfitted and the kitchen had all the extras. We felt so at home here.

We absolutely loved this house. The house is a historic landmark that has been completely remodeled with gorgeous airy rooms, huge windows looking out over the fjord, and golden hardwood floors. We cooked several meals in the well stocked kitchen. The charming back garden provided a lovely patio. The location was superb. There were a few good places to eat, wonderful walking, and a slice of small village life. We easily traveled to Isafjordur for various adventures. The hosts were lovely and responsive. We had a hard time leaving this house! I especially loved chopping vegetables in the kitchen while looking out on the harbor and main street. Added bonus: the washer and dryer worked great.

Lovely home, really well situated with great restaurants nearby and much to explore in driving distance. Would definitely recommend.

The location of the accommodation is magnificent; directly in front of the famous mountain Kirkjufell and on the beach. Our children loved the proximity to the water. We stayed here for four nights; there was so much to discover. Our hostess was very warm and very easy to reach. We were allowed to see the lambs on the farm. When we had forgotten something in the vacation home, she made sure we got it back. Thank you again for that. Clear recommendation. We would always come back.

If you are looking for a little cabin in the middle of nowhere this is your place! Well equipped cabins, comfortable (firm) beds. Dinner and breakfast up at the hotel were good, if somewhat over priced. Host was friendly and we were able to check in early which was nice after being in the cold rain most of the day. Recommend if you are looking for peace and tranquility.

We loved staying here! The location is spectacular—you couldn’t ask for a better introduction to the West Fjords’ beauty and isolation. Rognvaldur was very helpful, alerting us to the possibility of seeing the Northern Lights. And the tiny local swimming pool across the road is the best way to experience the hot springs the way Icelanders do. There’s no great luxury here, but it was all perfect. One warning: if you’re arriving on the ferry, best to bring food with you. Patreksfjordur is about 40 km away and the store there is quite limited.

Wonderful host, charming Airbnb. Niels was a great host, very welcoming and he offered suggestions on places to see in the area. The Airbnb is charmingly decorated with a variety of antiques. The home was spotlessly clean and the views are magnificent. I would definitely recommend staying here.

We loved our stay. We were so comfortable and views from each window were stunning. We walked everywhere and felt right at home. So glad we stayed there.

As described with an indeed fully equipped kitchen and a beautiful view of the sea from the main bedroom and the large dinner table. We had a very pleasant stay.

We had a wonderful stay; very scenic and beautiful setting. It was very well described including the advice to get grocery supplies on the way. We did a superbe hike on Hornstrandir (reachable via boat transfer from Isafjordur). Would have loved to stay longer! Daphne from Luxembourg

A beautiful home and surroundings!!!This host was an absolute pleasure to work with, and the reason my wife and I love Iceland and the wonderful people who live here!!! Will absolutely book here again on our next visit!! Thank you

Thorbjorn was a wonderful host (responsive and helpful with lots of local recommendations) and the place was great! Close enough to town to walk to the harbor and to town while being remote enough to enjoy the quiet. The views from the living room were great at sunset. The location was perfect for a home base for exploration of the Snaefellsnes peninsula and our search for the northern lights. There were 3 of us staying in the house and the amount of space worked out well. The house was very cute and clean. Would love to stay there again!

Beautiful environment, convenient location, fully equipped

This was a great place to stay! Surrounded by beautiful bodies of water and mountains, the scenery was gorgeous and to die for. This was the perfect size for our group of 5, with a usable kitchen that we cooked meals in. Would highly recommend staying here.

Anna and Óli’s home is a dream come true! I have been wanting to stay on their farm for years and now I can confirm, it’s even better than I expected. There is not one thing I can complain about. We showed up late and it wasn’t a problem at all because the check-in was so flexible and easy. Highly recommend if you want a true, beautiful Iceland experience.

There are no words to describe the beauty of this area, you’ll have to just experience it for yourself. Staying at Dis Cottages is the only way to do that! The spaces were small but beautiful and had every necessity we needed. The space was clean and comfortable. The true star of the show were the views of Kirkjufell and surrounding mountains. It was truly breathtaking. On top of that, we were gifted the show of a lifetime of the Aurora the last night we visited. I truly recommend this spot for anyone traveling in this area and I know we will be back!

The Freezer is in a great location. It was roomy and had all the amenities. We found it very comfortable and quiet. We enjoyed the little touches provided by the host.
