Vacation rentals in Sveitarfélagið Ölfus

Our stay at Akurgerdi Guesthouse was just wonderful! The views are breathtaking, especially for watching the Northern Lights – and we were actually lucky enough to see some. The location is perfect for enjoying nature and relaxing at the same time. The house itself is beautifully decorated and well equipped. Everything was spotlessly clean, especially the hot tub, which we very much enjoyed. A real highlight was also the visit of a super sweet and cuddly tomcat, who regularly kept us company – simply sugar-sweet! A huge thank you to Sabine, who is an incredibly warm and caring host. She explained everything to us very well and the entire process was absolutely straightforward. You can tell that she runs this wonderful guesthouse with a lot of love and care. We felt completely comfortable and would come back anytime!

This cozy cottage is everything you need after a long day of travel & driving. Our sore muscles were especially thankful for the hot tub!! Kristine was a very responsive host and had everything we needed available for use. The best part was no chores before check out! We were able to get up and immediately start our next adventure after a restful night.

This is an amazing property ! Be prepared if you want to capture northern lights, because Reikiavik area gets cloudy most of the time and other areas do not as there is more wind. As for the cabin everything worked as published even the jacuzzi. The cabin was warm and welcoming. There were even two espresso capsules that even the nicest resorts forget to put them on. If you want to have relaxing nights in the suburbs consider this place for sure

Staying in this incredible place for my 30th birthday has been an unforgettable experience. We were lucky enough to witnesd the northern lights twl nights, pure magic ! This is truky the most beautiful place on Earth!

We had a lovely and relaxing stay in this wonderful cottage. Remote but close to Selfoss. Only 45mins to Reykjavik. Perfect for a few days away to relax and get away from the world! We loved the hot tub and looking for the Northern Lights. Looking forward to going back one day!

Wow! What a place. Even better than the photos. We wanted to stay somewhere close to the action but far enough away that it felt remote - and it ticked both boxes. Very comfortable, stylish and of course the hot tub was a fantastic benefit. The hosts were great with communication and we had no problems at all during the visit. Highly recommend.

Wonderful place to stay. Much bigger than we expected. We were far enough away from city lights to see the Northern Lights every night. It had everything we needed and the host was extremely accommodating.

Our stay was absolutely wonderful! The location was ideal, offering breathtaking views of the mountains. The space was clean, cozy, and thoughtfully decorated, making us feel right at home. We especially loved the little touches like the local recommendations. The kitchen was well-equipped, and the bed was super comfortable. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing retreat.

Elin's apartment is in a great location for public transport routes,shopping centers and lovely walks - located relatively close to the city center so it's easy to get to without having to be stuck in the hustle and bustle of the city. She is a wonderful host and the apartment is a lovely spot to stay in if you're ever in Reykjavik. Will definitely be back
