Family-friendly vacation rentals in Mosfellsbær

Eyjolfur’s property was the perfect home base for my 17-year old son and I to spend a week! We mainly explored the northwest corner of the country and this was perfect for that. It was also very easy to get into Reykjavík for more dining options and shopping. The privacy and quiet made coming home after a long day of hiking very welcome! The amenities meant that we cooked most of our meals at home and were able to pack food to take with us. And a coffee maker! Excellent for combatting jet lag. 10/10 would rent again!

Lovely place if you are looking for some peace and quiet. It’s also a good location to see the Northern Lights - they were right above us!

We had a lovely time staying here! GORGEOUS location and so peaceful. Felt right at home here, it was truly a beautiful stay.

I booked Emma and Oskars place for clients of mine, they were very happy, communication was great, I can well recommend.

Such a comfortable stay well located near Selfoss and the park. Secluded but easy to access. The best appointed kitchen I’ve seen in an Airbnb. Made our stay very easy

Amazing place and host! Great location close to downtown and easy access to hiking and golden circle! Would go back!!

This was our first time in Iceland and I’m so glad we chose Helga’s beautiful cabin to stay. The surroundings are amazing and something we will never forget. The house had everything we needed to be comfortable for the week. It was cozy, quiet, and felt private even with cabins nearby. Off the beaten path but close to our first stop on the Golden Circle. We enjoyed the hot tub, very relaxing after a lot of driving and hiking. We weren’t sure we’d see the northern lights so late in the season but ended up seeing them our last two days - right from the cabin deck and living room windows. After such a great trip, I hope to return to Iceland someday soon!

Unforgettable experience, surrounded by a beautiful view. After several trips, it's nice to feel at home relaxing in the hot tub talking to friends about the beautiful day spent together.

One of the best places we stayed while in Iceland. We were able to walk to the private black sand beach to watch the sunset. So picturesque and beautiful. The yurt was very comfortable. The heated beds were perfect. Even caught a glimpse of the northern lights! Cannot recommend this place enough.

If you are looking for a comfortable, affordable stay in Reykjavik, this is the place for you. Great amenities including a large back yard, large living space with a Smart TV and playstation, and a fireplace. Kitchen with everything needed to cook for yourself and avoid the pricey Reykjavik Restaurant scene. Located on a quiet street with easy access to the highway (rental car recommended for sure).

The directions given to us for getting from the airport to the apartment were concise and easy to follow. Checking in was an easy process thanks to the instructions given to us. The apartment was well presented, very clean and warm. The kitchen was well equipped and the beds and pillows were extremely comfortable. It was a ten minute walk to the old town where there were many restaurants and bars. We’d definitely stay in this apartment again.

Elín’s “house of happiness” is nothing short of a dream come true! My husband and I loved every single second at this incredible secluded cabin outside of Selfoss and already dreaming of our next trip back. Elín is a warm and accommodating host, you won’t find a lovelier and more thoughtful host out there. And don’t get us started on the outdoor shower! It has the perfect temperature and pressure! Do not hesitate to book this stay. You’ll be so happy you did it! Thank you, Elín for your hospitality! We’ll be back!

A lovely cabin in peaceful surroundings — the perfect place to recharge and enjoy a relaxing holiday. Highly recommended!

Asta was so helpful with local recommendations, and her house was clean welcoming. We had everything we needed right at our fingertips. The sauna and hot tub were great for relaxing. The location was perfectly central for exploring the Reykjavik peninsula.

Amazing place. We sat in the hottub at night with - 10 degrees while it was pitch black. A moment we will never forget. The place looked even better than on the pictures. We cooked at the place two nights, the oven is amazing and all the equipment is there. Linda responded very quick and was very nice. Thank you Linda!!

Location was perfect for sightseeing near and far. The airbnb was very comfortable and warm with a well equipped kitchen. Trausti was a great host. I would highly recommend this place.

Very nice and clean accommodation and very friendly and helpful hosts. I can highly recommend it.

Inga was a wonderful host! She met us outside offered to help with our bags. Suggested restaurants in the area and also a spot to hopefully catch the northern lights! Her place was clean and welcoming! Bed was extremely comfortable! Cute neighborhood too!

This house was perfect. The hostesses met us when we arrived, gave us instructions on things they wanted us to make sure we knew (for safety and such due to the temperatures), and spent around 2 hours giving us a tour and history of the house. It was absolutely perfect for what we needed and they were so thoughtful with all of their recommendations for activities with our children. We 100% recommend this house to others and we will be coming back in the future!

Stayed here for 3 weeks to study, so we rented the entire apartment. The location was perfect, lovely parks and an ice rink nearby, and only a short bus ride or 25 minute walk by the sea to downtown reykjavik. Kitchen had everything you would need to cook and clean. Hakon had loads or information left available on tours, bus routes, restaurants etc, that were very helpful. A home away from home.

Nice cabin amongst the woods in Husafell. We were fortunate to enjoy the aurora from the deck on both nights! The floor heating made the cabin cosy. Husafell is wonderful place to enjoy nature, including several treks nearby, and Karl's cabin provided a nice home base.
