Such an incredible home. The house is architecturally stunning, but it truly feels like a home, as the hosts have outfitted the kitchen and living spaces with everything guests need. The floor is heated! The water pressure is amazing. The hosts could not have been more accommodating, responding to every question and request we had immediately. The view is stunning, and we were perfectly situated to enjoy both Reykjavik, the golden circle, and sites closer to Vik. Northern lights, stunning snow covered mountains in the distance, and beautiful Icelandic horses nearby.

Perfect start

Started our trip here. The house is a destination in itself. The views from the property are amazing. The fact that it puts you in the middle of several must sees is just a bonus. The communication from the owners was great. Would definitely rent this one again.

Very nice Golden Circle resident with privacy

The property was very spacious for a family of 6. The bathrooms were large, bedrooms were very nice. The extra bed in the laundry room came in handy. The home is down a private gravel road. It had a great view. The owner always responded very timely. It was in the heart of the golden circle and 45 mins to Selfoss. Bio was about 2 hours. My family throughly enjoyed the house and hot tub and would stay here again.

Amazing base to explore Iceland

Fantastic location. Less than two hours drive from the airport and you walk through the front door to a real 'wow' moment. The views are incredible. We visited in April and couldn't be happier with the property. One night we were watching a family movie but the northern lights stole the show. If you are looking for a great house in a fantastic location for a family holiday, look no further, this is it.

Beautiful Home

The house is beautiful, modern, and conveniently located to most of the sights on the golden circle! We saw the aurora lights every night we stayed on the deck. Really enjoyed the warm floors and water pressure in the showers, and well-stocked kitchen. Plently of space for our family of 5 and amazing views all around. Easy 10 out of 10, highly recommend!

Mixed feelings about my stay

I came here with a group of 9 family members for my sisters birthday. The hosts were great with communication prior to the stay, allowing us to have a smooth check-in process. When we arrived, we were overwhelmed by the amazing view and the overall size of the property. However, the host informed us that there is a possibility of mice entering the property AFTER the cancellation period had passed which we thought was a little unfair. Furthermore during the stay, there were multiple power cuts which had caused the TV or the WI-Fi to stop working (which was needed as the signal for mobile data wasn’t great). In addition to this, we initially thought it was great that we didn’t need to do too much grocery shopping as there was a lot of food and drinks left at the property (perhaps from previous guests) however a lot of the items are expired. It’s incredibly important that this is checked as I ended up having the hot chocolate and felt really sick after. Finally I’d like to raise, the property description initially said 5 bedrooms and didn’t specify that one was in the laundry room (I can see the host has changed this now). This took us by surprise and led one of our family members to have a really uncomfortable stay is an untidy room. We raised this with the host and expected an understanding response however to our surprise, the response was quite patronising and rude. The host was quite defensive and didn’t take in any of my points. Just some things to consider.
