Vacation rentals with a fire pit in Iceland

Great house with loads of windows and beautiful views everywhere you look. The house was super cute, too. The pictures don't do it justice. The host was responsive and went out of their way to be friendly.

We enjoyed our stay and would return! The cabin is in a secluded neighborhood with open fields, but there is one neighboring cabin right next door. There is a relatively tall privacy fence all the way around, but if there had been guests staying next door at the same time as us, we likely would have heard some voices if they were outside too. Luckily, the neighboring cabin was unoccupied during our stay. We made great use of the hot tub and loved listening to the birds and looking at the gorgeous open fields and distant mountains. The home was clean and everything was in working order.

This place is great! Very cozy and close to the golden circle and Selfoss, which has great restaurants! We especially enjoyed the cozy vibe of the interior furniture and kitchen. We also really enjoyed the hot tub and cold plunge combo. Magnús was really responsive when we had questions, and even got on the phone to walk us through how to fill the hot tub and turn off the lights so we could better view the aurora!

We stayed wishing to catch the Northern Lights and we were lucky enough to do so each night and be there for a huge solar storm. We ventured out the first night and after that realized we were able to stay comfy at our airbnb and see them both in the front yard and backyard. The house was spacious and our children 7 & 1 loved the books and toys available. We were offered a portable crib and high chair which were convenient. There were plenty of novels for adults and a variety of books on Iceland. There is a washer and large drying rack, dishwasher, and full kitchen which was wonderful since it is a serene spot you can relax and not run down the road 15 minutes for food or coffee. I enjoyed walking the road to the church and admiring the horses next door. The location is remote and going to parks or the city required an hour drive. Our host was gracious and extended our check out which was helpful. Thank you for your hospitality.

Jon's place in Flúðir was a delightful surprise! The space was incredibly comfortable and spacious, perfect for exploring the stunning Icelandic countryside. The bathroom was a particular highlight, feeling more like a luxurious 5-star hotel than a vacation rental. The place was fully equipped with everything I needed, making our stay truly hassle-free. Jon was also very responsive and helpful, ensuring a smooth and enjoyable experience.

Extremely nice and cosy house for the group of friends. All in the kitchen and two bathrooms :) This is the second time we are all in the house together and we all agreed that it would be nice there. The location is central and the communication with the owner is great.

Our stay was great! Our host was so friendly and responsive to any questions we had! Her recommendations were spot on for food, hiking trails and the local community! We will be back for sure!

Absolutely stunning views and an unbeatable location. The host was incredibly welcoming, easy to communicate with, and their pets made the stay even more delightful. Our whole family had a wonderfully relaxing time—we’d love to return!

Comfortable and large apartment. Fully equipped kitchen, comfortable bathroom. Thermal water jacuzzi available - great! Effortless communication with your host. Recommended!

cozy place to stay we have great experience, must stay

A beautiful apartment that looks just like the photos! Comfy beds, spacious living room, well-stocked and modern kitchen. And super close to the downtown, many parks, and coastline. We really enjoyed our stay here!

Beautiful town and breath taking surroundings.. the apartment was very well placed and nice

Disa’s place was perfect for us, cozy and stylish in a beautiful setting. Not too far from town but felt remote. Very comfortable bed, refreshing shower. We appreciated making coffee in the Moccamaster.

Even though the weather did not cooperate with our plans on this trip, having Soffia’s cozy apartment to come back to saved the day. This is one of the cleanest Air BNB’s we have ever stayed in. The kitchen had everything we needed, the bed was wonderfully comfortable, and the shower piping hot! There is a wonderful museum in Akureyri that has an amazing collection of maps and we loved Kaffi Ilmur for the delicious soups and pastries. Unfortunately we did not get to go whale watching because the weather was poor, but we can definitely recommend Baccala for the fish and chips! Soffia is an amazing host. She responded quickly to messages and was very, very thoughtful. We look forward to returning and cannot recommend Soffia’s cozy apartment enough.

Thank you for your great hospitality and life lessons while we explored your beautiful country! Our most breathtaking day was driving up to Snæfellsjökull Peninsula/National Park. Your providing a car with the airbnb was so appreciated- as was the pickup from the airport and the stop to see your "friend". Thanks for making us feel at home while traveling abroad.

Vilborg’s apartment in Reykjavik was perfect for our stay. Check-in was super smooth with clear and easy instructions. The apartment itself is beautiful—full of lovely plants and cute, stylish decor. It felt spacious and comfortable for our family of four, and everything was very clean and quiet. A great place to relax after exploring the city. Highly recommend!

We felt very comfortable in this sweet vacation home. The house was furnished with a lot of love for detail and had a beautifully large terrace for the children to romp, including a trampoline and zip-line. From there, we could easily reach many excursion destinations. Thanks for letting us enjoy such a pleasant stay with you.

Very beautiful and super cozy place and excellent host. I can highly recommend staying here 😊

This cabin was our favorite place is Iceland, it really surpassed our expectations. We were able to spot Auroras Boreales right from the deck. Thank you so much for a great stay

Loved the location, the views and all the amenities available. It was a perfect place for the two of us, cosy and had all we needed and more. Only thing I'd recommend to take with you, that we forgot, would be slippers.

We stayed at this place for two nights ( 3 adults and 1 kid). It is very well equipped, you'll find everything you need for grilling or regular cooking. Views are breathtaking, and if you're lucky with the weather you can just chill outside and enjoy the fresh air. Hosts were very friendly and quickly answered all our questions. Instructions are perfect. One thing to note - if you use google maps, don't put the address there, use the coordinates. Address is correct, but google maps directs you to wrong location ( though, not far from correct place ).

Great accommodation. A small, cozy tiny house with everything you need on a large property. The location is really great. After a long, exciting journey through Iceland, we were able to end our vacation in this oasis by the lake. We felt very comfortable. Thank you!

It has been the 3rd time I stayed here. As always, it was a wonderful stay.

We travel a lot and have used numerous airbnb's or vrbo's. Agusta's "cabin" is easily in our top 3 ever. It was amazing! Lots of space. Well appointed. Fantastic kitchen and living area. Thought of everything. Loved, loved, loved it. Only slight negative is the long gravel road (+/- 10 mins) to get to the place, but if you want seclusion and darkness for the northern lights, that is an easy price to pay. The town of Vik is 30 to 40 minutes away. That is where you'll find the restaurants and grocery store, so plan ahead. Special bonus was introducing my children to a vinyl record player with a good selection of albums.
