Cottage vacation rentals in Reykjavíkurborg

Very nice spot out in the country; cannot beat the view from hot tub. Very quiet and peaceful area to enjoy. There is plenty to do locally by driving around and checking out the beautiful sites and landscape that Iceland has to offer. It is a self sustaining cabin so we did need to clean up everything at the end which was easy and allowed us to truly get away from the city lights and we got to see some northern lights right off the back porch on the last night of our stay!

if you are looking to unwind, relax, take in beautiful views and take advantage of your natural surroundings this home is perfect. my wife and I loved spending the first couple days of our vacation here and hope to return to Akranes one day and will look to stay here again. thank you Odd and Frida!!

We had a wonderful stay here! The view is so beautiful - we loved walking along the beach and taking in the views. Watching the seal in the water, the birds and all of the little sea creatures at low tide was a treat. The cabin was very clean and comfortable and was well-stocked. The beds were comfortable as well. We loved relaxing in the hot pot in the evenings while enjoying the view and listening to the birds! The area is amazingly beautiful. We loved to drive around the fjord - and even spotted a whale 2 different times! The hosts are very friendly and easy to communicate with. They were very responsive and helpful with the couple of questions that we had. I highly recommend staying here!

A beautiful place to stay, stunning views, clean accommodation with everything needed for a comfortable stay and a friendly, accommodating host. We would definitely go back ☺️

Had a fantastic stay at Gunnar's cottage. Everything we needed was at hand in the cottage. It was warm and cozy and and perfect for relaxing in the evening. We used the hot tub a couple of times and it was great. Managed to see the northern lights during our stay and it's a perfect location for seeing them and travelling around the Golden circle. Would definitely stay again.

A cozy stay, great if you are looking to get away from the city. It's a bit far from any convenient stores so pack up before you arrive. Overall, a great cabin.

We had a very wonderful stay.The owner was kind and generous in helping us.The rooms were Cozy and clean!

My husband and I wanted to get away from the city and out in the country. This was the perfect place for us. The scenery around the cabin is breathtaking. We enjoyed the hottub and we're also able to view the Northern Lights on a few nights. The amenities inside were perfect and just what we needed. I was a little apprehensive about the shower being outside in a separate building, at first, but the water was hot and the pressure was excellent. Our stay was perfect and the communication with Vidar was top notch. Such a beautiful place.

Very peaceful and homely cabin in beautiful surroundings. Svanna is very helpful and the cabin is well kept and cosy. Rural location - we were lucky enough to catch the northern lights 4 nights in a row! Would happily stay again, thank you ☺️

Good tiny home that we used as a base camp to go exploring Iceland from during our week there. Fits the description and photos. We saw wonderful northern lights right above the house !

This is one of the most extraordinary places in the world. Go here and breathe in the fjord, the mountains, the night sky, and feel the meaning of life unfold.

Our stay was perfect. The cabin was great and exactly as shown in the pictures. The place was clean and the kitchen was well stocked with appliances for a small kitchen. Eggert was quick to respond and check-in was easy and smooth. Great overall experience and would definitely recommend this place.

Friendly hostess, well equipped home, quiet place, fell like home. Highly recommended.

The scenery was amazing. It was wonderful to hang out on the porch, though admittedly a bit chilly in early October. The cabin was very cute, well laid out, clean, and with many small touches that made it wonderful. Only downside was that the hot water does have a strong sulfur smell and the kitchen sink is shallow resulting in water often spraying out of the sink due to the high water pressure. Aside from those two minor issues that place was perfect solitude. One other item to mention is that the nearby waterfall trail was very worthwhile. You park in the nearby small neighborhood and walk up an ATV trail. It was amazing to be the only people around the waterfall and to be able to hike further up the mountains.

Maria's cabin is out of the way on a small lake. The scenery is beautiful. The cabin had all the necessities and comfortable beds. One bedroom was on the small side, but the main bedroom was large. The only issue was a difference in how America and Icelandic people make their number 1's. I thought the Wi-Fi code had a 7 in it but it was a 1. After I figured that out, the Wi-Fi worked great. :-)

Cozy cabin in a setting with proximity to several Golden circle stops

The cabin on the beach was just what we needed for our anniversary celebration. The location was perfect as basecamp two days of our visit to Iceland. Margret gave lots of good information about restaurants, local attractions and other services. We especially enjoyed our TWO visits to the Floi Nature Reserve. Thanks, Margret!

Nice cottage in a quiet environment, just off Reykjavik, managed by dedicated hosts.

It was a great spot to stay with my family after visiting nearby geothermal hot springs. I wish we could have stayed longer and gotten to visit with the horses, but we had to head out easy to head back to Reykjavik. It was still great to see them out in the field while enjoying my morning cup of coffee. What a pleasant surprise to see a coffee maker and coffee grounds for us in the morning!

The place was clean, cozy and easy to get anywhere in Reykjavík. We enjoyed the peaceful nature of the property. We highly recommend this place to anyone.

If you like the outdoors, Hveragardi is awesome. We are from Pennsylvania, and we seek out cool places for outdoor vacations. This locale was perfect for our two nights in Iceland en route to France. Oskar's place was great for us, big enough for our family of four and super convenient to trails, restaurants, grocery, etc. The only heads up I would provide to other perspective guests would be that the kitchen is not designed for big cookin'. It's got tiny house bare essentials and 4-5 sets of silverware, plates, etc. Also, the sauna is wood fired and takes a while to warm up and firewood is limited. The Hot tub is small but adequate. There was a hot water issue while we were there and we didn't make full use if it. In summary, the minor issues I've mentioned were just that, minor. Hanging out with village neighbors was a bonus and made the trip even better. I would absolutely go back to the little village.

The owner was very friendly and made sure we had a baby crib on location. We were only there overnight, so we didn't have much time to explore. The beach was nearby, but not in view. Seems newly renovated. Was a nice place for our overnight stay.
