About this house rental
Just renovated and back on VRBO after a few years of absence. This contemporary house/villa is in a quiet residential area in the centre of Reykjavík built in 2002 and designed by its architect owner. The part being rented out is a detached, i.e. separate guest house. The villa is located within 70 meters from the seafront and only 15 minutes walk from the bustling center where you will find The National Theatre, the main museums, art galleries, cinemas, coffee houses, restaurants, bars and the main shopping streets. The bustling center (Miðbær) is a 3 min bus ride away from the house but the bus stop is within 2 min walking distance from the house. The guest house is 76 m2 and is ideal for a couple or a family of four. The location offers fantastic walking and cycling routes along the sea front. There are two bicycles at the Guesthouse, free of charge for the guests. Within 15 minutes walk away there is a geothermal heated beach as well as swimming pools. Free parking outside of the house as well as private patio.

This was a great central location for our Icelandic adventure. Having a little kitchen and washer/dryer was so helpful.

Great trip to Iceland began before we got there. The host was so nice to provide information for planning the trip. Check in was a breeze and the guest house was just perfect for me and my two teens. Clean and fully equipt kitchen for cooking light meals. Fabulous location near the sea for nice oceanside walks every morning.

Our family of 3 enjoyed the brief stay. The guesthouse is not the largest, but plenty of space for a quick trip to Reykjavik. The beds were comfortable and there were no hassles when it was time to check out.

What a wonderful guesthouse for our family of four. Right in the City near shoreline walking paths and a less than 5 minute drive to everything. The unit is beautifully designed and was comfortable for our two kids and parents alike. Highly recommend!

My family had an excellent experience staying in the guest house. The overall look and functionality made our experience extremely comfortable. The hosts were available and very friendly. We had an amazing time celebrating New Year’s Eve mostly due to the very charming neighborhood we were fortunate to be a part of for a few days.

The guesthouse was warm and cozy and did not leave any wish open. The bed was a dream, we slept very well. Also the kitchen was very well equipped and we used it frequently to prepare meals. The landlord Gudrun- Eva is a nice lady who helped us to prepare our stay, she was always available when we had questions, she made us feel very welcomed. We also liked the quiet surrounding and the close proximity to the sea, and are already looking for the next occasion to come back!

This guest house was tucked away in a great safe neighborhood. It was convenient to downtown Reykjavik and right on a gray walking/bike path. The hosts were so friendly and helpful! I will definitely return!

My wife and I loved this comfortable and private guesthouse. Located near a coastal walking path and a short drive to the center of Reyjavik, it was a great base for exploring nearby parts of Iceland. The guesthouse had everything we needed and we would be delighted to stay there again. Highly recommended!

The property was very clean and in a nice neighborhood. We spent 2 nights & everything we needed was there. There are several grocery store in close proximity. This was perfect for getting stuff for breakfasts & snacks. The bus station is right around the corner if you want to go into town for dinner and drinks. The owner was very helpful in providing info on the buses. It was a great first visit to reykjavik & iceland. We'll need to plan another visit to see more.

We highly recommend this apartment. It’s in a great neighborhood near the ocean and only a mile from downtown Reykjavik. Perfect unit for up to 4 people. Easy parking is a big plus.

Friendly host. Would repeat.

We had the trip of a lifetime to Iceland and loved the guesthouse! The owner was wonderful and the property had everything we needed. We brought our two daughters (ages 7 & 9) and had more than enough space. The bed in the living room was very comfortable (not like a normal pull-out bed) and the master bedroom was large. The short walk to the ocean was great with a wonderful walking/running/biking path. We went down almost every day after touring the city/country and really enjoyed that. I would definitely stay here again. Thank you, Gudrin!

The guesthouse is even more beautiful than the picture! The owner is responsive and provided great recommendations for a thermal swimming pool (w/ nice slide for kids) and dinner. The house has a basic kitchen, fridge, and washer/dryer which was helpful. It was a 10 minute drive to central Reykjavik and groceries, convenient for the golden circle, and near the domestic airport and flybus station to KEF. The house is a tight space for 4 but roomier than most European houses and hotels we stayed in. Nice touch of a lit candle on our arrival, which was late in the evening after the blue lagoon. A great stay!

We loved this property. It feels so clean and spacious, so it is a wonderful place to relax after a busy day. It is a quick 5-7 minute drive to the city center and an easy walk to the ocean. There are 2 pool/hot springs in the neighborhood and grocery stores and a movie theater. My husband, myself and our 2 teens felt very comfortable. Iceland is very expensive if you eat out all the time, so we found it saved lots of $ to go to the nearby Bonus grocery store and cook most breakfasts and dinners. There is a washing machine and everything would dry overnight on the drying rack. This house was a quiet oasis to return to after busy days and yet close to everything when we did want to head out. I have already recommended the property to other friends.

The guesthouse had everything you need. We cooked most of our meals and everything we needed was there. I had to guess how to use the oven because I'm unfamiliar with Icelandic appliances. There is a washer/dryer but I never did figure out how to use it. Who wants to do laundry on vacation anyway. The information that Gudrun provided was very helpful. The great thing about the guesthouse was that it was very private so we could come and go at all hours without (hopefully) disturbing anyone. The guesthouse was warm and cozy and couldn't have been better. I will be returning. Thanks Gudrun.

Great place!

The property was ultra clean, nicely decorated and ample room for a family of four with 2 teenage boys....the quilts were so warm and snuggly!. It is about half hour walk to the town, but a stones throw to the sea and beautiful views. We were extremely unlucky with the weather, with snow storms for 2 days (February) but our hosts were very kind in offering us lifts into town and to the other attractions nearby, outdoor thermal swimming pools. There is a very tasty burger bar just on the corner near the property and a small supermarket about 15 mins away. The bus stop is at the top of the road, easy to get into Reykjavik if you don’t fancy walking, and our airport transfer dropped us st the domestic airport about 15 mins walk away......most trips will pick up there too. In summary, would highly recommend for a family spending several days sightseeing
