Places to stay in Akranes

The cabin was thoughtfully decorated. Also, a private and peaceful place close to bigger town and outdoor attractions.

The accommodation is spacious, very well equipped. Various games are available for children and board games are also provided. The accommodation is clean and nice. An electrical outlet is also available for those who have an electric vehicle. Finally the views are stunning from the living room, a huge view of the bay.

Nice private cottage with a historic church nearby. Clean and a good place from which to explore the local area.

I loved the room! Very warm and cozy and everything was exactly as described. Lisa was super proactive and helpful. I even got a Christmas present :) Would definitely come again.

Oh where to begin! The house: it’s a child’s or child at heart dream “tree house”. Very unique and well constructed by Tolli himself. We had everything we needed. Shower has great pressure and supper hot water (which is a must). Beds are comfy, blankets are warm and plenty of pillows. Our kids loved sleeping on the nets. Tolli graciously provided mattresses for them. The host: very friendly, extremely accommodating and responsive. Plus and very interesting person. As we got to the house, he was just finishing up making a round wood table for the kitchen….fascinating. Almost everything inside is constructed by Tolli himself. Location: restaurants, market and gas station within 2 min. We loved the location itself bc it in the middle of all the places we planned on visiting. The roads are not congested. The scenery around the house is peaceful. There are cats and chickens walking about the yard. If we ever return to Iceland, we will definitely stay here again. Thank you Tolli!

I can’t say enough kind words about our stay at Stefan’s home. It was a short 30-40 minute drive from Reykjavík, and a great starting point for seeing popular sites like Thingvellir National Park and Gullfoss. Getting to the house was exciting, it is very remote and just when you think the driveway has ended, you keep going and drive nearly right on the beach! Beautiful surroundings, and we even got to see some seals close to the shore! The inside of the house was clean but not boring like a hotel room. A lot of neat artwork and comfortable furniture and lighting made hanging out in the house and enjoying the view a highlight of our stay. I would recommend Stefan’s place to any friend visiting Iceland that wants a remote and private home base!

Our stay at this cozy cabin was absolutely perfect! From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. The cabin was spotless, beautifully decorated, and had everything we needed for a relaxing getaway. We especially the peaceful forest surroundings—it was the ideal spot to relax after a day of hiking. The host was friendly and responsive, and provided clear instructions Highly recommend this gem!

Nice place to stay
