Excellent in every way

Comfortable beds, great shower, lovely Anna the host baked biscuits and bread to share with the guests. An amazing view of the lagoon. Felix and Carney the dogs were very friendly ❤️ and kitchenette in our studio apartment had everything we needed. The main building had books and games to read and play. Fabulous location, amazing hosts. We will stay again if we are back this way.

Everything was absolutely fantastic! The location, the cleanliness of the room, the size! The home cooked cookies and cakes, the exploring of the backyard, hot tub looking up at the stars and listening to the waterfall behind us! Incredible. Can’t forgot the gorgeous doggies! We loved every minute and we’ll absolutely be back!

Best place I've stayed in Iceland: unique, clean, functional, spacious but homely; stunning location

Best place out of the 30-odd properties I've stayed at in Iceland! Great story, beautiful place, excellent set-up with everything needed, lots of room, clearly both care and thought put into the very generous and comfortable facilities, and a stunning location (aurora from the porch!). As soon as we opened the door to our room, we wished we could have stayed longer. Highly recommended, can't wait to hopefully be back.

What an amazing place to stay!

We loved everything! Communication was flawless; we were greeted with an amazing carot cake, and the appartement was cosy and spacious for four people, kitchen was well equipped and with all these little things you need to cook and never buy because they are just too expensive for a short trip (salt, oil, coffee, tea). Hosts extremely kind and location amazing. We saw aurora borealis too!
