Host was very communicative, and flexible on check-in / check out. Everything was as promised and the place was even nicer than the photos led us to expect.

This home was absolutely perfect! We all loved the decor as well as the location of the property. It has a beautiful view of the surrounding river and tree lines. Very close to so many beautiful locations as well as shopping and wonderful restaurants. We were very happy with this home and the hosts. They are very responsive and answer messages quickly. If I am ever back in Iceland, I would not hesitate to book this fantastic home.

We had the best time at Kristin's home in Hveragerði! The home was absolutely beautiful- the views from the kitchen/living room were absolutely stunning. We traveled with my parents who are in the late 70s/early 80s and the house was perfectly laid out both in terms of giving us separate spaces, and also for my mother who has a disability. So much ease of access to all rooms, to the beautiful patio, and also to the shower! The location couldn't be more perfect- we were able to see all of the south of Iceland, easily with in a 30 minute to 1.5 hour drive, depending on our destination. We loved being close to Reykjavik (it took about 40 minutes to get there), but really loved our little town more. So much to do in all directions, and so much peace at the end of the day. It could not have been a better stay. Kristin is also a very easily accessible, helpful host. Thank you so much!

Wow. High marks for both the house and the hosts. Since this house was being painted, Kristin generously offered us her other property next door (#9244097) so this review is for that property. Kristin was very accommodating and very responsive. The location cannot be beat- right on the river. secluded and peaceful. The geothermally heated hot tub on the river was pure heaven. We had many amazing soaks. The house is very, very roomy with many common areas for people to spread out. Well stocked kitchen, large dining table, very comfy sofas, great views all around. There are three large bedrooms and 2 smaller bedrooms. All can accommodate couples, but the smaller rooms don’t leave much room to walk around (my 14 year old slept in one and loved how sunny and cozy it was) . One bedroom has a toddler bed. Three bedrooms are near each other, and 2 are more separated. All bedrooms are on the same (lower) floor. The lower floor opens up to the ground level where you can walk down to the hot tub. There is a large grocery store about 5 minute drive. Kristin patiently talked us through how to fill up the hot tub (it was easy) and operate the stove (we had not operated an induction stove before) and was always available to answer our questions. We would absolutely stay here again!!!
