This was a beautiful spot for our family!

April 19, 2025

This was a beautiful spot for our family for a few days. The place is very small, but we made it work for four, and the location was prime, the hot tub was lovely and the sheep in the distance were adorable. Plus the Northern Lights!

Everything! Hot tube, location – away from anybody, warm inside, equipped with all necessary items, good contact with host. Only 3h away from Glacier lagoon. Plenty of lovely places around. So pleased!

This place was so awsome!

March 1, 2025

This place was so awsome and in such a beautiful place! It was in great location too! You’re in between some famous waterfalls! 10mins to Seljanlandsfloss and 15mins to Skógafoss. The plane wreck hike is about 20 mins south and Vik is about a 1/2hr/40 min drive. It’s very quiet and essentially no light pollution! The hot tub was an added plus! Especially after very long days of driving/hiking/walking around. I would highly recommend this stay to anyone that wants a good location to explore the south of Iceland! The owners were very nice, very attentive and gave privacy!

Totally enjoyed my stay. Located between Seljalandsfoss and Skogafoss, this is the perfect place on the southeast. Made use of the Jacuzzi and kitchen and everything was a breeze!

The setting of the Airbnb was incredible!!! It is located in a very serene location, in the middle of nowhere witch makes it perfect for seeing the northern lights! We got to see them! The cabin was very cozy, warm and inviting! We felt right at home. The boat was very responsive! I definitely recommended it. So worth it!
