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!

Stylish ocean view apartment
Hildur’s apartment was the perfect base for our stay in Reykjavik. It is walking distance from the city centre but in a quiet and beautiful part of town. We loved the view of the water and the sunset from the living room. The apartment is beautifully decorated and well equipped with everything we needed for our stay, including for cooking meals. It was comfortable, spacious and very clean. Hildur met us at checkin and left lots of local recommendations. She was very friendly, welcoming and easy to communicate with. We would highly recommend a stay! Thank you Hildur 😊

Nice, bright and quiet studio, close to downtown.
Helga was very welcoming and responsive to any questions I had. She reached out to offer rain gear as there were a few rainy days. The area was great - it was close to everything (very walkable and easy to get around) but was in a quiet area. The apartment was comfortable and clean. I would definitely stay again for another trip to Iceland.

Studio apartment in Reykjavik
We've stayed here twice now and again it's absolutely amazing, the scenery, the apartment, the host all amazing and nothing to complain about. one of the best places I've ever stayed at.

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.

Central loft with amazing views
Such a beautiful space in the best part of town! Had a minor miscommunication when we first arrived, but it was quickly and easily resolved. 100% recommend. Certainly didn’t hurt that we saw the Northern Lights from the bedroom balcony!! Absolutely perfect stay!!

Family flat
This was a good place to stay before our departure. It is very clean. Host Edyta was responsive and kind. There was some car noise but it settled down later at night. I sleep with earplugs and it was fine. I recommend this place and host!

New studio apartment, great view
We had an extremely enjoyable and relaxed stay here for over a week. It's perfect for 2 people who are focused on seeing the sites of Iceland. A great location only 15 minutes south of Reykjavik and easy to jump on the road for day trip adventures. The view out the window of the harbor is wonderful sitting on the couch at the end of a long day of adventure. Then, if tired don't worry you have 3 nice restaurants very quick walking distances from you. Snaedis provided a thoughtful welcome basket and beers for us, 3 different times during our stay! We also had a grocery store just a minute down the road that made things easy. I can't say enough good things about the hospitality and highly recommend!

Motorhome Iceland, Rv Iceland camper in Iceland
Can’t say enough about how easy and responsive David was. His motorhome was perfect for our trip and he was able to answer questions within minutes. We would not hesitate to rent from him again.

Spacious house in Reykjavik near the seaside
Bryndis and her family were wonderful hosts the place was close to some restaurants and the water. It is located in a peaceful section of Reykjavik and a great home base for activities around the capital. It is clean, spacious and the hosts were very responsive.

Cozy two storey house in Seltjarnarnes
Fun stay in a family home. Unlike most AirBnb we have used, this is active living space... With the quirks and perks that come with that. Our little boy loved seeing the other kids' rooms, and playing with their toys. Very kid friendly unit! Master bedroom had a super firm mattress which we loved!!! Thanks for a great stay!

Seaview with Reykjavík City around the corner.
A fantastic homely place to stay with our family including teenage grandchildren. Great local supermarket and bus service which meant we didn't need a car. Superb views including across the bay to see the erupting volcano! The BBQ and the hot tub were fabulous as was the weather. Outdoor living was just as good as indoors. Everything we needed in the kitchen was available including a well stocked fridge on our arrival. Plenty bedding and towels to facilitate changing everything during our stay.

Ocean Front Designer Townhouse
The ocean view from this home was absolutely stunning. The location was great, with easy access to nearby restaurants and shops. The host was incredibly helpful. I had a wonderful stay!

A nice family home - pls no party goers
I could not have asked for a better place for my family to stay together. Everything was immaculate. It is exactly what was represented on the website. There was plenty of room for the 7 of us. I loved the siding door that separated the bedroom area from the rest of the house. I would recommend this place to anyone. Styrmir was kind, helpful, and always responsive and flexible. We had a wonderful visit to Iceland!

Cozy Seaside Apartment with Stunning Bay Views
Very nice place to stay, great location, parking can get a little hectic but that can be expected.

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!

Downtown Harbor Apartment
The Harbor Apartment was perfect to visit Reykjavik. It’s clean, comfortably furnished, nicely decorated, and wonderfully warm and inviting on a cold January visit to Iceland. The location was unbeatable, just across the street from the scenic old harbor and near plenty of excellent restaurants and steps from a small market for your daily needs. The host provided voluminous tips on getting around and responded quickly with a work-around when we discovered that the Internet network listed in the check-in instructions was down. We would definitely stay here again. Just one small caveat for light sleepers—the bedroom window is located next to the ground floor elevator and you can occasionally hear the voices of people coming and going, or stomping the snow off their shoes before they get in the elevator.

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!

Bright Apartment With Ocean View & Near Downtown
We enjoyed our stay immensely! We loved the location — it was quiet, but still really close to everything — and the view of the water was beautiful !! The space itself was lovely - clean, open and airy, and had all the basic things we needed. Also— for the parents traveling with young kids— we used the crib, high chair, and was perfect for small kids. Would stay here again!

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
Unnur’s place was absolutely spectacular, and she was an exceptional communicator. She went out of her way to ensure I had everything I needed, including a charging adapter upon arrival and extra towels for my comfort. Her communication was truly outstanding.

Luxury Downtown Reykjavik Condo w/Ocean Views
Wonderful, tastefully furnished apartment in the heart of downtown Reykjavic with access to restaurants, nightlife, tours, supermarkets...everything the heart desires! 10 out of 10 would recommend.
