Vacation rentals in Hvalfjarðarsveit

We had a wonderful time in this cabin with a stunning view! It was just as described in the listing, and we really enjoyed the wood stove and hot tub. It is quiet and very private, and even cozier than the photos make it seem. Well situated for visiting the golden circle and the Snæfellsnes peninsula, and Andrea’s guide to the peninsula was very helpful. Perfect home base for us and our young child.

Just book it. It’s perfect. Incredible views, luxuriously comfortable, spotless, well-designed. Bad weather meant we couldn’t leave the property for a couple days and my goodness what a blessing that turned out to be! We didn’t want it to end! The place is spectacular. Oh, and we saw whales from the hot spring! Truly magical.

We had a great stay at this location. It is about 30 min from Reykjavik which was not a problem for us at all. It is located in a super quiet area literally right next to a lake. We are a family of 4, so we used all three bedrooms which as great for us. It is not a large cabin, but we spent so little time at the cabin that it did not bother us at all. We used the Hot tub in the back yard every day and enjoyed the view over the lake and mountains. It is close to a number of hiking trails and waterfalls, and it was exactly what we had hoped for. The host is AMAZING, by far the most responsive host we have ever had, and offered super good information for trips, shopping etc. We ended our trip by watching the Northern Lights right from our back yard patio. I would recommend this to anyone looking for nature, hikes and amazing views.

Beautiful house and views We really enjoyed our stay

Sigrún is a great host: proactive, responsive and true. The place is beautiful, tastefully decorated and well maintained. We chose this as an initial base for 3 nights before spending just 1 night in 4 other properties and we weren’t disappointed. It was a good starting point: in reach of Snaefellsnes, the Reykjanes Peninsula and ‘The Golden Circle’. My two grown up sons and I felt at home here.

this place is truly a hidden gem. Definitely off the neaten path and not much around that's close food wise, but 1000% worth the extra miles to stay somewhere secluded like this with the magnificent views out the massive windows in the living room and kitchen. it is on the homeowners property, but once inside you feel like you are all by yourself out there. 2 bed, 2 bath and was there by myself but felt very spacious. the interior feels new and is updated with great shower and comfortable beds and couches. would highly recommend to anyone looking for great views and seclusion.

First impression- wow. It’s exactly as pictured… except even better. The view and surrounding area is bar none. The home was pristinely clean. The owners were very responsive and helpful. I guess our only “complaint”, is that it was surprisingly warm in the home at night, which in all actuality is a good problem to have in Iceland. Side note- the construction quality of this home was very very well done. Some people may not notice these things, but if you are one who does, you’ll be impressed. We’ve stayed at quite a few Airbnb’s, and this may very well be our favorite thus far. Overall- a perfect home base in your stay in the beautiful underrated country of Iceland.

Checkin was a breeze and Alfa was extremely helpful throughout our entire stay. Truly a beautiful home with everything you need, especially if you’re traveling with kids. Views from the home are absolutely stunning and the interior is very warm and welcoming. My family and I enjoyed our stay and would absolutely love to visit again.

We had an amazing stay in this cozy cabin overlooking the water. We rented a 4x4 so the driveway was no issue. This stay was close enough to all the things we wanted to see but far away enough that we felt like we were alone in Iceland. Perfect size for a couple! Warm and cozy in March with spectacular views.
