    It was a little difficult to find, because there is no house number on the building, and it is the top floor above a bank, but there was no mention of this. So instead, I accidentally entered the courtyard of an adjacent residence . Just tell people it’s above the bank or put the number on the building, please!

    Impeccably clean, comfortable, very well appointed, and had every amenity we could ask for. Very comfortable for eight people. Very prompt communication from the owner.

    We didn't plan ahead and neglected to pick up any groceries on the way to the home. There aren't many options for grocery stores close by.

    Our family absolutely loved this home. It was comfy and modern with lots of extra touches. The views were incredible and we loved soaking in the hot tub after a long day of exploring. The host gave us lots of recommendations for places to visit, restaurants, and grocery options.

    I had an exceptional stay at this Airbnb. The house was beautifully maintained and spotless, with a spacious layout that was perfect for our group. It was easy to find, conveniently located just off the road, and in a great location near a gas station and grocery store. The setup of the house was ideal for group gatherings, and the clear instructions from the owner made the experience seamless. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a comfortable and convenient stay!

    The apartment is fantastic! The interior design is both beautiful and practical, offering everything we need. Supermarket and bakery are within 2 mins by walk. I'm thrilled that we can stay here after our Highland trip and celebrate my son’s 12th birthday in such a lovely place.

    Nothing - would move in and live here tomorrow.

    Just wow. This house from the minute you walk in is just a stunner. We absolutely loved it and are mad at ourselves for not figuring out a way to use it as a base for more days during our travel in Iceland. Located just off the ring road, within walking distance of a grocery store, pool and disc golf, this place is a gem. It was our favorite stay of our trip, by far. The bathrooms, the bedrooms, the linens, the kitchen, all of it is 15/10 good. Book it now.

    WOW! We have stayed in many vacation rentals and this is by far the best. Stylish, well-equipped, spacious, and with the most comfortable beds. There is a very nice bakery across the street with great sandwiches to grab for your excursions. The small grocery there also has everything you could need. The location is in a very small town but it’s a great spot for reaching the Golden Circle, Westman Island, Seljalandsfoss etc. The host was very responsive and helpful. My family would have enjoyed a longer stay there for sure!

Great little gas station/fast food option right across the street. We absolutely loved this place. Communication was excellent before and during the day.

    The weirdest part is the ‘bank’ entrance. Took us a lil bit of time to find the entrance.

    We liked everything!

    The house is beautifully designed & decorated, comfortable beds with premium linens, stunning kitchen & baths, outfitted with luxury SMEG appliances & plenty of pillows and large bath sheets. Pretty much anything you would need is here. Be aware that there is no microwave oven when shopping for local groceries, but there's an induction stove & oven, so not a problem. The property is set on a lovely garden and across the road from 2 small stores if you need to pick up groceries and essentials. If we weren't splitting our time between different areas of Iceland, we'd have booked this house for the entire trip.
