We were three friends who enjoy hiking and who are foodies. It was a nice place outside Reykjavik to head to different areas for day hikes and then heading in to the city for some great food. The house was very comfortable for 3 people.

The online photos of this villa that we saw before booking were amazing. When we checked in on Monday, August 19, 2024, we were very excited and impressed with the house, the amenities inside of the house, and the lovely neighborhood that is located only a few miles outside of Reykjavik. Our hosts, Aldis and John were wonderful and helpful. They were very responsive to our emails and also provided us with a phone number to call if we needed to contact them. The house is located within a short driving distance to the sights we had added to our list to see. The hosts even arranged for a volcano to light up the evening sky for a unique experience! Out of a rating of 10, I would give Aldis and John a 12! Thank you for sharing your lovely home with my family.

John & Aldis were wonderful hosts. Their home is lovely, and had everything we needed to make our stay comfortable and convenient. Highly recommend!!!

We greatly enjoyed our stay at this peaceful villa with beautiful ocean views. It is conveniently located, just 10-15 minutes from downtown Reykjavik and easy highway access for day trips to other popular sites in Iceland. Perfect for our family of four. Excellent communication with the owner.

Aldis and John's home is so very cozy and warm, situated in a quiet Reykjavik neighborhood close to everything you need. Whether it was chilling out on the front patio, relaxing with a lovely view of the ocean, or soaking our bones in the hot tub after a long day of hiking, this home felt like, well, home...A 5 minute walk to the Sky Lagoon and a 10 minute drive to the Reykjavik city center checks all of the boxes for a great introduction to Iceland. We'll definitely be back.

We enjoyed our stay in this beautiful, cozy home. It is a 13 minute drive to downtown Reykjavik. The Sky Lagoon is a 20 minute walk; must do whether you take the walk or the short drive. This lagoon spa is tranquil, clean, relaxing, with great views. Grateful for the accommodations.

Excellent place to stay. Great location and had all the amenities you would need. Very close to city center. We would highly recommend for your visit to Iceland.

We were fortunate enough to spend a week at this gorgeous home with wonderful views and amenities. There was enough space for us 5 and we could have easily fit 8 in there. The kitchen was spacious and fully equipped. The washer and dryer were good to have on site in the laundry room behind a closed door. So that we would not hear them run at night. The hot tub in the back yard was a nice little retreat after a long day of hiking and sight seeing. The path in front of the home was a calming way to start the day by the bay water. The bedrooms in the home were perfect size and the living room and dinning room areas were even better than the pictures. The over all 10-12 minute proximity to the city center gave us a lot of opportunity to check out local restaurants and enjoy the city life in the evenings and mornings. The grocery store and pharmacy is only about 5-7 minutes away from the home, so getting groceries for the night in was not an issue. The home is also very sturdy and withstood some really strong winds during our stay. There was good driveway space to park 2-3 cars (even though we only had 1 car). There are also local parks near by the home so walking to a playground with the kids is easy and super quick . The neighborhood is safe and we felt right at home.
