We were a group of 5 (husband, 2yr old daughter, and in-laws) and we had a great time at the cottage. It was clean, comfortable, and well equipped. Beds were comfortable but the angled ceiling in the smaller bedroom could make it difficult for taller people to get around (not a problem for me but it was awkward for my 6ft tall husband). The lockbox for key storage was tricky to open - you enter the code and pull the bottom. Dedicated parking space in front of the house was a plus. Beautiful area. Would definitely recommend!

Overall, we had a very nice stay here, although there were some frustrating aspects. The house is great—clean, bright, warm, cozy, and comfortable—and the kitchen is pretty well equipped. Hellnar is a lovely place and it was a good spot from which to explore the peninsula. However, the WiFi, washer, and dryer were not working, and these were important amenities for us. The WiFi never worked at all while we were there—I’m not sure what the issue was, but we couldn’t load a single page when connected to it. The host said that it usually works, which may be true, but it didn’t while we were there, and no one helped to resolve that over our four days. This was frustrating, since the cellular service was limited; sometimes I couldn't even message the host because the VRBO website wouldn't load on my phone. The washer apparently broke down shortly before our stay, but the host didn't communicate this proactively (if she had, we could have done laundry in Reykjavik). As it was, we found a single public machine 50 minutes away with a malfunctioning dryer. The host did try to help us and arranged for us to use the washer in a nearby house on our third day, and she gave us a small refund for our troubles. We appreciated all of this—I know she wanted us to have a good stay. And we did have a wonderful time on Snaefellnes! The peninsula is amazing and the house is great. Still, having to think about these issues repeatedly was not ideal.

The accommodation was kitted out with everything we needed and more. It was very clean with excellent bedding. We loved the property and it’s idyllic location and would recommend to anyone. Thanks for a lovely stay

First of all. The cabin is nice. The area it is located in is excellent. But when we arrived at the cabin it turns out you have to start your stay by washing the linnen from the previous occupants. So we found dirty, wet linnen all over the bathroom. We were not prepared for this, because nowhere in the descriptions of the cabin was this part mentioned. Then we had to use the facilities. The toilet was not exactly clean. Turns out you have to wash the cabin before you leave, wich is fine, but noone checks the cabin between tennants. So then we had to clean up after others also before we could start our stay. And our stay was nice once these things were out of the way. We had a lovely time here. The cabin provided everything we needed to have a pleasant stay. But there is a very small warm water heater. So if three people shower back to back, you don' t have not water for anything else for hours. And you are encouraged to not use the wifi so much. But we are three grown people with online lives, so we used the internet as we usually do. Minus streaming that is. Still on our two last days, the WIFI was eventually so slow, that we had to turn it of and use our mobile data. At this time the internet could barely load comments on Snapchat, and barely load new emails.
