Hot tub, Hvammsvik Hot Springs and just 30 mins from Thingvellir National Park and start of the Golden Circle. Easy drive to Reykjavik. Majestic vista of the fjord. Completely lived up to our expectations!

This is a beautiful place in a beautiful location. We stayed also in a panoramic glass lodge before coming here on the south coast, and we liked this place better AND we saw the northern lights here! It’s a very spacious place which we very much enjoyed. Because I believe in leaving honest reviews, I will tell you two cons that I thought about this place: #1. We booked it for the location and also the hot tub, but we didn’t wind up using the hot tub at all due to the smell. Everything runs on geothermal which is fantastic and we support that 1,000%! But the smell was unbearable, I considered getting nose plugs just to sit in the hot tub and try to enjoy it. But I knew it wouldn’t have been enjoyable so we just went to the hot springs up the road instead. #2. Make sure the day that you are checking out, you give yourself plentyyyy of time to complete the “chore list” that they’ve left for you. Not a fan of any place that gives me a cleaning chore list but this was the most I’ve ever seen. Washing dishes is normal. But this list went as far as asking us to mop the floors and make up the guest beds. Which makes me think that each guest is responsible for the cleanliness of the next guest. I understand this is a 2nd home to the owners, but I think you need to just build in cleaning fees and get someone to upkeep the property instead of asking your guests to do all that while they are enjoying their stay. Overall, for the price, I would absolutely recommend staying here!

Jakob and Elsa's cottage is a wonderful blend of comfort, quiet and accessibility. We loved the coziness of the space even on wet, windy days. The northern light viewing was spectacular on clear nights and the proximity to Thingvellir National Park was really nice. We cooked most every meal in the well-accomodated kitchen. Beds were comfortable and the bathroom met our needs very well.

This home was perfect, it was right on the inlet and close to glymor and Hvammsik hot springs. The home was clean, bed linens were soft and comfy and everything was great for our stay! Perfect for our family, plenty of room.

Spectacular views from inside the house. Well stocked and clean. 40 minutes from Reykjavik, but the drive was beautiful and never got old! Plus, the location gave peace and quiet. Hot Tub was great too. I would highly recommend!

Pleasantly located next to an idyllic fjord and only a few dozen kilometers from Iceland‘s main attractions along the „Golden Circle“, the house offers a great hub for excursions throughout the southern and western parts of this beautiful country. The interior is furnished in Scandinavian design and offers all amenities needed by the adventurous traveller. Major bonus is the hot tub located on a cliff overlooking the fjord.
