Pros: The view and the art make this a beautiful vacation choice. We were looking for a place where we could relax after a bus tour around Iceland and this was exactly what we had envisioned. The kitchen was well-equipped and there are books to read. Several restaurants, grocery stores and the public pool and spa are within walking distance.Cons: Wifi went out a couple of times but came back quickly. The hot water has a strong sulphur smell, which is normal for this region of Iceland but which we found difficult to get used to.

The house was unique as the host is an artist and has decorated the place with many of their art. Communication was good from pre-booking, check in and throughout the stay. The place is in a town 45 minutes out of Reykjavík but convenient enough for a relaxing stay or a base to tour the western part of Iceland. Overall a great stay.

Very responsive host. Pretty and comfortable. Great views. Nice neighbourhood. However , limitation on cooking facilities, no dishwasher and washing machine. Limited storage cupboards and side tables in the rooms . Enjoyed our stay . Will recommend.

We really enjoyed staying in this spacious and comfortable house. What an amazing location, right by the sea with the most spectacular views! It was a great place to base ourselves for a few days sightseeing - highlights were whale watching from Olafsvik and the Canyon Baths in Husafell- and we liked Borganes too
