clean cosy apartment in downtown
It was a very pleasant experience, the room was located in a very convenient place, you can find supermarket, nice restaurants all in walking distance. The house was clean and cozy, Selma was so nice and always replied in a very short period of time~ will come back again if it is possible~ 5-star recommend!

Beautiful studio apartment with free parking
Excellent place. Done very tastefully and thoughtfully. Extremely clean efficient and fantastic. Lovely place in all aspects . Highly highly recommended

Nice, bright and quiet studio, close to downtown.
A very pleasant, bright flat in a quiet street. Just perfect! Everything was available, well furnished. Helga was always available and responsive. I would recommend this place!

Top floor artistic apartment with an amazing view
Wij verbleven een week in het aappartement van Daniël. Het is een huis met een volstrekt persoonlijke uitstraling waardoor wij ons meteen volledig thuis voelden. De kamers zijn smaakvol ingericht met een combinatie van kunst en vintage, en er is een complete bibliotheek van boeken en CD's die de zeer brede interesse van de gastheer benadrukken. Het appartement zelf is schoon, warm, vol licht en biedt een waanzinnig mooi uitzicht op de skyline van Reykjavik. Als je geluk hebt is er zicht op het noorderlicht vanaf het balkon. Wij hebben heerlijk geslapen op het prima bed. Het appartement bevindt zicht op 10 minuten rijden van het centrum in een rustige buurt. De zee zit op 5 minuten lopen en biedt een prachtig uitzicht op de kustlijn en de oceaan. Daniel zelf is een enthousiaste gastheer die zijn best doet om je thuis te laten voelen. Hij gaf een volledige rondleiding door het huis en vervolgde met aanbevelingen waar je het beste heen kon gaan in de buurt. Zeer tevreden :)

Ocean view apartment near city centre!
Me, my wife and our son stayed at Ingiberg’s place for 6 nights on our trip to Iceland. The apartment was very easy to find and we were able to park the car in the allocated bay (inside the garage). It is slightly outside of the main town but providing you don’t mind a walk (35 minutes) like us then it is not a problem at all. The apartment was nicely furnished and had everything we needed. Tv and sound system were great for the evenings. Ingiberg was very responsive on messages and even alerted us when the northern lights were on show. Would definitly recommend staying at the apartment to anyone visiting Iceland.

Opin og björt íbúð í kyrrlátri útivistarperlu.
My family and I (5 adults) had a great stay there. Hjalmar and his wife greeted us when we arrived at the house. He was very responsive and flexible with our check-in. The place was clean and comfortable. It had everything. We would stay there again. Highly recommend!

Central loft with amazing views
Stella’s apartment is a great place to stay. It is spacious and very comfortable. Comfy beds and sofas and well equipped kitchen. Super location near the water front and close by all central attractions and shops. Stella was very helpful throughout. Highly recommend

Charming apartment in the city
Sonja's place is everything we hoped for, and more. Full of sunshine and good vibes. Spacious, quiet, clean, well located. There's a terrific food shop and swimming pool just minutes walk away, and the city centre is in easy reach. Sonja is an excellent host, and her home offers an excellent Airbnb experience.

Beach House in Hvalfjordur
Svana's beach house was outstanding. Located on a picturesque whale fjord, it is one of the most beautiful places I have ever stayed. So much nature to explore, including the nearby Golden Circle (Gullfoss Falls and Geysers) and the Hvammsvik Hot Springs (only three minutes away). We even lingered out on the porch at midnight listening to the bird calls.

A quiet, charming house by Reykjavik harbor
Loved our stay here! It felt very cozy and homey, and the location was perfect-very walkable to everything in Reykjavik. For parking, we stayed in the alley out of the way of other cars and had no other issues. My one comment would be that the hot water smell was quite sulfuric, but I think that is true of most places in Reykjavik and surrounding it. Overall though, I would love to be back-the bed was super comfortable too!

Luxury cabins with waterfront view
A great cabin for a large group - we had 6 adults with room to spare. No issues with hot water, but we ran into a late night flooding issue in cabin 1, which Arni responded to the next morning. Can prep a basic meal in the clean kitchen, lots of dishware available. Cabins are warm and are well insulated, with amazing views of that gorgeous lake. Pillows and blankets were so comfortable. This is a solid location for fishing if you’re into that, with an outdoor sink by the lake as well. We loved driving home and saying hi to the sheep, lamb, and horses. There’s laundry, which is great, but the dryer is less effective than we expected (if you’re used to American dryers) so just watch out for that. Internet is perfect from the common cabin but inaccessible from the others. Need to pack shampoo/conditioner/hair dryer. We loved our stay here but note: beware Google maps if it takes you on Grafningsvegur Efri and then Klifsskogur - a narrow road that closes (at night/always?).

Hvalfjarðarsveit Cottage with Mountain view
A beautiful, peaceful setting, with stunning views. Kathrin and her husband let us know when the northern lights appeared one evening and helped us with the settings on our i-phone so we could take the best pictures. Very appreciative or their help. We highly recommend their quiet cottage.

Luxury villa at Thingvellir - fantastic location
If you are looking to stay near the National Park and enjoy a private, incredibly quite relaxing trip, this is the most amazing choice. For us this home was the perfect space, incredible design, stunning views with impeccable lighting. We needed to rest and relax while exploring the vast landscape of Iceland and this was beyond perfect. We will absolutely be back.

Ocean view Townhouse
What a great place. We really enjoyed our stay here. Lots of room for everyone and such a great location - not far out of the city but very peaceful and beautiful. The favourite of the Air Bnb's we booked for our Iceland trip!

Light and Airy Living by the Sea
Gudrun’s home is really lovely. We travelled with little kids and is perfect for families seeking a comfortable and memorable stay. With a well equipped kitchen, it’s easy to prepare home-cooked meals, while the open living spaces offer plenty of room for everyone to relax and unwind. Thoughtful touches, cozy decor, and essentials including crib, washer/dryer, private parking make it an ideal place. The home is a quick drive to the town of Selfoss , and practical location to explore the south coast. The only downside is that there is a cemetery across from the house, but overall a great home. Gudrun is a great host - friendly, responsive, and checked in if we needed anything during our stay. This was the perfect stay for our family and would definitely recommend.

Luxury Lakeview Cottage
This was our favorite Airbnb to date!! Just an unbelievably beautiful location and luxurious accommodation. The host was very communicative and welcoming.
Waterfront condo accommodation

Cozy Seaside Apartment with Stunning Bay Views
Sehr schöne Unterkunft mit Blick direkt auf die Bucht. Die Wohnung hat alles, was man für einen mehrtägigen Aufenthalt benötigt, man kann es auch für länger aushalten. Da wir ein Auto hatten, kamen wir auch schnell überall hin, die öffentliche Erreichbarkeit können wir nicht beurteilen. Alles in allem sehr zu empfehlen.

Ocean View Condo near Sky Lagoon
The apartment was very spacious, clean, comfortable with a lovely view of the little harbor nearby. It provided my son and I with a base to explore many of Iceland's attractions using our car rental. Getting into the city takes about 12 minutes by car and around 45 minute by bus. We opted to cook at home since there's not a lot of restaurants nearby. Generally speaking this was a fantastic place to stay and made our whole week in Iceland stress free and relaxing. The apartment also has great water pressure and lots of warm water!

Lovely 2 bedroom condo with a beautiful view
Rùnar’s home is perfect to rest after an icelandic adventure. It’s warm, comfortable and nice, with an amazing ocean view (we had the chance to contemplete an eruption too!) and good markets near by. There is a delicious little fish market too, at few steps. Reykjavìk is easily reachable by walking (half an hour) or with bus and Seltjarnarnes is a peaceful and welcoming neighborhood. Rùnar and his family are helpful and kind. Thank you for sharing your home!

Downtown Harbor Apartment with Balcony
Harbor Apartment was a great place to stay! Walking distance to all the prime sights made it convenient, as well as the many restaurants. So convenient!! Host(s) were so responsive, as well as the information shared about the area, the apartment and the restaurant suggestions made our visit perfect! We definitely will return one day!

Bright Apartment With Ocean View & Near Downtown
The host was really communicative and accommodating. Her home is clean and has everything. We enjoy our stay and would recommend!

Reykjavik west town by the sea
Snorri and Svava’s Airbnb was so cozy, clean, and in a great location near the city and next to the water. They were so responsive and friendly! I would stay again!

Lovely 1 bedroom condo next to Sky Lagoon
We had a great stay at Unnur's apartment. It was a perfect base for our adventures around Reykjavik. The location was very close to downtown (10min drive), walking distance to the Sky Lagoon (highly recommended) and having free parking was a lovely amenity. The apartment itself was lovely - bright, clean and well appointed - and the host, Unnur was excellent - very responsive and accommodating. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a nice quiet location just outside of the city centre.

Modern & fully equipped first floor apartment
It was a memorable stay. Imagine you just moved in into your dream condo. Everything is new, clean, and well thought after. The place was spacious and immaculate. Anything you needed was right there for you. Beside that, Eydis was a great communicator and responded to massage within minutes. She offered for us to use any food in the fridge; which was very kind of her. Her flexibility with the check-in and the check-out time made our stay even better! We look forward to coming back again and soon 😊.
