“very quiet place with good views”
the best views from the city. The breakfast was incredible even if they left it for us the day before in a fridge. My young son enjoyed a lot running freely round the yurt.

“Excellent stay!”
Not as usual - compared to regular accommodation, Yurt is something else. Besides clean, comfortable and all things in place.

It was such a special experience to spend the night in the Yurt, and quite an adventurous one. The tent is super cozy and solid (despite the strong wind outside, we slept comfortably all the night through) and it is always challenging in a good way to try and stay without electricity and WiFi for a few hours. As advertised, the common bathrooms don't come with a shower, but we had free access to a public swimming pool downtown, which was also an appreciated bonus. The breakfast left for us in the Yurt, was rich and super yummy. The walk up to the tent was actually shorter and easier than expected, and the view on the town and fjord was just priceless. Totally recommended!

“A great experience for travelers looking for a unique place to stay!”
We had a great stay in the yurt. How wonderful is waking up with the sound of sheep and a wonderful view of Iceland nature! Making a wood fire at night, eating breakfast in front of the yurt, swimming and taking a shower at the local swimming pool, talking to the other guest; it was a great experience. We got some exercise out of it also, walking back and forth to the yurt on top of the hill ;-) Thanks, Solla and Erwin.

“Great location for a peaceful night”
The location and the resulting silence was great! Dried firewood for the stove in the yurt was appreciated. The breakfast was also good.

“Very enjoyable”
Very nice landlords and staff, really nice yurta with comfortable beds and stunning view over Akuyeri, located close to downtown area (7min drive), no showers on site but free entrance in close swimming pool even better 🙂

“An unforgettable experience”
The views were stunning! It was an experience to stay in this cozy, colourful and clean yurt. It’s quite a hike up a steep hill from where you park your car and I can recommend just packing a small bag for the night. It depends on the yurt you have, we had the furthest one on the hill (with the best view). The toilet facilities were super clean. The bed was sooo comfortable and the breakfast just right for us.

“Strongly recommended to everyone”
Amazing stay like in fairytale! Although weather outside was so bad (about 0 °C), stay in yurt was perfect. Fresh air and thick duvets are perfect line-up for sleeping of your life :-)

“We had a wonderful stay in Iceland Yurt!”
It was so relaxing to light the fire, snuggle down and enjoy the beautiful Icelandic landscape. We watched the northern lights over the hills which were simply magical. Solla and Erwin were so kind, providing great local recommendations for dinner and being on hand for any questions we had.

“Lovely and peacful stay”
Our stay at the Icelandic Yurt was a fantastic experience. We all enjoyed the stunning panoramic views that made every moment feel special. The location is perfect—close enough to Akureyri for quick trips to town, yet surrounded by nature, providing a peaceful and adventurous setting. The kids enjoyed the feeling of being in the great outdoors. The yurt was clean, and the hosts provided clear and easy-to-follow instructions, which made our stay stress-free. The toilet is unexpected clean for a camping experience. There is no electricity inside the yurt, but in the shared toilet we could charge our phones. I would definitely recommend Yurt in summer.
