Cottage holiday rentals in Grindavik

Not enough can be said about how truly special the home was for me. My first time to Iceland, celebrating my 50th birthday, I wanted some place memorable. The home was perfect! The hosts were very helpful and even proactive in notifying us there was a small storm rolling through ahead of our stay and provided us links to check the weather and road conditions. The house is very private and chic. Yet it's very close to the national park which we spent hours at seeing incredible natural wonders. Just 20 minutes away. The house is also just a few minutes from a major town with all the essentials you will need and not far from a Viking restaurant I wanted to go to which was awesome. If I'm ever lucky enough to be back in Iceland I'd love to stay here. If there's anything I'd recommend is maybe another couple of oscillating fans. There was one but with three of us we needed another as it was a little toasty at night. Opening a window was fine though and worked for us. 5 stars (& more)!! ⭐️

A gorgeous view in this modern upscale cabin. Odd was extremely attentive and helpful.

We had a wonderful stay here! The view is so beautiful - we loved walking along the beach and taking in the views. Watching the seal in the water, the birds and all of the little sea creatures at low tide was a treat. The cabin was very clean and comfortable and was well-stocked. The beds were comfortable as well. We loved relaxing in the hot pot in the evenings while enjoying the view and listening to the birds! The area is amazingly beautiful. We loved to drive around the fjord - and even spotted a whale 2 different times! The hosts are very friendly and easy to communicate with. They were very responsive and helpful with the couple of questions that we had. I highly recommend staying here!

A beautiful place to stay, stunning views, clean accommodation with everything needed for a comfortable stay and a friendly, accommodating host. We would definitely go back ☺️

Had a fantastic stay at Gunnar's cottage. Everything we needed was at hand in the cottage. It was warm and cozy and and perfect for relaxing in the evening. We used the hot tub a couple of times and it was great. Managed to see the northern lights during our stay and it's a perfect location for seeing them and travelling around the Golden circle. Would definitely stay again.

Árni’s cottage was a wonderful place to stay as part of our recent Iceland vacation. The setting is stunningly beautiful and the cottage is perfect in every way - very cozy, peaceful and lovely to sit at the dining table, drink coffee and enjoy the view. Location is great, very easy check-in and check-out, and the host is a delight to communicate with and provided great recommendations (hvammsvik is wonderful!). Would love to return on a future Iceland visit! 5 stars!!

Perfect stay in every regard. This place is a special little slice of paradise in Iceland. Very obviously well cared for, and well appointed with everything you need for a comfortable, enjoyable stay. The setting and the views are just spectacular. The extra time and effort required to get here are absolutely worth it. My family did not want to leave. Of the many rentals we’ve stayed in over decades of extensive travels this goes on a short list of one of the best.

We had a very wonderful stay.The owner was kind and generous in helping us.The rooms were Cozy and clean!

Very peaceful and homely cabin in beautiful surroundings. Svanna is very helpful and the cabin is well kept and cosy. Rural location - we were lucky enough to catch the northern lights 4 nights in a row! Would happily stay again, thank you ☺️

Good tiny home that we used as a base camp to go exploring Iceland from during our week there. Fits the description and photos. We saw wonderful northern lights right above the house !

This is one of the most extraordinary places in the world. Go here and breathe in the fjord, the mountains, the night sky, and feel the meaning of life unfold.

Our stay was perfect. The cabin was great and exactly as shown in the pictures. The place was clean and the kitchen was well stocked with appliances for a small kitchen. Eggert was quick to respond and check-in was easy and smooth. Great overall experience and would definitely recommend this place.

Friendly hostess, well equipped home, quiet place, fell like home. Highly recommended.

The scenery was amazing. It was wonderful to hang out on the porch, though admittedly a bit chilly in early October. The cabin was very cute, well laid out, clean, and with many small touches that made it wonderful. Only downside was that the hot water does have a strong sulfur smell and the kitchen sink is shallow resulting in water often spraying out of the sink due to the high water pressure. Aside from those two minor issues that place was perfect solitude. One other item to mention is that the nearby waterfall trail was very worthwhile. You park in the nearby small neighborhood and walk up an ATV trail. It was amazing to be the only people around the waterfall and to be able to hike further up the mountains.

Maria's cabin is out of the way on a small lake. The scenery is beautiful. The cabin had all the necessities and comfortable beds. One bedroom was on the small side, but the main bedroom was large. The only issue was a difference in how America and Icelandic people make their number 1's. I thought the Wi-Fi code had a 7 in it but it was a 1. After I figured that out, the Wi-Fi worked great. :-)

Stunning location, so peaceful, had everything you needed, very responsive host. Great location for the National Park and snorkelling at Silfra, just 20 minutes drive. Stunning sunset our first night and incredibly comfortable bed. Highly recommend the cottage and host

Nice cottage in a quiet environment, just off Reykjavik, managed by dedicated hosts.

We had a very great stay in Hafsteinns house and enjoyed the house and the surroundings very much. The house was well equipped with everything you need. We had a problem with the pool (the water pipe was frozen), but Hafsteinn reacted very quickly and send a plumber the next day to fix it. On the negative side, there is a bit of a lack of storage space for personal belongings and actually only one bedroom is an actually separated room, the other two "rooms" are open to the living area.

The space was wonderful! It’s located in a small fishing town that was fairly walkable and clean. We have lunch at a quiet local spot and coffee at a near by grocery store. The stay was quiet and located 10min away from the airport.

This was stay was worth it and exactly how described. It was quiet and we were delighted by the horses. They made the experience above special. So grateful to Delia who introduced my son to a top rated horseback riding experience. Thank you to Elsa for being so accommodating and supportive.

The owner was very friendly and made sure we had a baby crib on location. We were only there overnight, so we didn't have much time to explore. The beach was nearby, but not in view. Seems newly renovated. Was a nice place for our overnight stay.

The description corresponds with the advertisement. Kristin sent very detailed instructions how to get to her house! Very much appreciated. The house is located in a very quiet and beautiful environment.

Without doubt an exquisite place to stay at. Comfortable, beautiful surroundings and the host was very friendly, responsive and helpful. Very family friendly and also a great place for friends to stay at to relax and unwind. Very pleased with our stay :)
