I cannot recommend this property enough! We visited for 8 days in late June/early July 2026, and the view from the wrap-around glass patio was breathtaking every single day, morning and evening. Because of the shape of the valley, we would routinely see completely different weather patterns West, North, and East. Maybe it was snowing on the mountain across the lake, raining at the property, and sunny out West... all at the same time!It's only a 25-30min drive West to Akranes to pick up groceries or adventuring gear, so while you feel like you have a little slice of heaven to yourself, supplies are only a quick trip away. You really won't have to drive for more than an hour (or less) in any direction for hiking trails, marked attractions, and some other secret nooks and crannies you'll have to find for yourself :)I'd recommend a 4x4 rental car for the short, but stony & steep driveway. The main road is completely fine, it's only the last tiny bit that really tests the tires. There are some quirks about the place - the hot water isn't abundant, there's a couple of "funny" light switches... but it seems like someone's passion project, and I'm entirely on board and love everything about it.Just enjoy the peace and serenity! The hot tub is clean and well-maintained. Brew up a batch of French press coffee in the morning, sip it steaming while peering out at the lake and mountain, and define your day - every day!

We stayed for two nights and had a wonderful experience. The place was very nice and incredibly calm, with an amazing view that made the stay even more special. Everything was clean, comfortable, and well-organized. We’would definitely come back.
