I rented this property with my siblings and all of our families. Wow, what an amazing find. The location was very central in Iceland so getting to spectacular views in the Golden Circle was very quick and even pretty easy to get to further destinations like Vik. The house itself was incredible, very modern and easy to navigate. There were a lot of us, but the layout was such that we were able to each have our own space. One note is whoever gets the upstairs room won't have a door, so no late night cards unless they're playing too! The view off the back was absolutely incredible and something we'll keep with ourselves forever. Communication was excellent throughout the process, would definitely recommend.

Exceptional property that pictures and words cannot adequately describe…the views and area are breathtaking!! The hosts couldn’t have been nicer and went to great lengths to make sure we could locate the property, have all the amenities necessary and were informed of all the great activities in the area. We highly recommend this property!!

We stayed five nights in April 2024. We were treated to the Northern Lights our first night. The house is spacious, clean and modern. The beds are very comfortable. It sleeps ten in beds. The area is super quiet. The hot tub is pristine. The host was great and had good documents. The trash/recycling system could be a little more well documented. We did the golden circle, two hot springs and the southern beaches (where we saw Puffins!) Great stay, thanks so much!

This is an incredible house with stunning views. We spent every night gathered around the kitchen table enjoying home cooked meals before enjoying the Northern Lights from the warmth of the hot tub surrounded by a gorgeous snowy landscape. The location is excellent for exploring the South Coast, from Selfoss to the Golden Circle to Vik. The neighboring towns have some good spots to eat, with friendly people throughout willing to make a local suggestion. All in all a perfect base for a special trip in Iceland. Would return for a visit any time! Note: Although the listing says Selfoss, the house is actually about 30-40 minutes outside of Selfoss, and about 90 minutes from Reykjavik. Not a big deal at all but something to be aware of when planning your trip.

This modern house was ckean and comfortable. We were isolated enough to see the northern lights.

Everything about our stay in Iceland was perfect. The house was great and ideal for us wanting to stay in the countryside and be able to venture out and see Iceland during the day. We were able to explore the area and come home at night to a great home to stay in. One of the nights we were able to enjoy the Northern Lights from the Hot Tub on the deck. It was truly all we could ask for.

Our family chose this house due to its proximity to the Golden Circle and the fact it was a bit off the grid - it did not disappoint. Modern home with gorgeous views, and a very helpful host to answer any questions. Loved the hot tub, heated floors and view from the deck. We had a wonderful and comfortable stay and would highly recommend this home.
