Family-friendly holiday rentals in Iceland

Great area and cottage to end our Iceland trip at. Very nice spot and super quiet to wind down and enjoy the sights before flying home!Very private and great amenities.

This home was both beautiful and private. The hot tub was so lovely to use after a long day of adventures. We would definitely stay here again!!

We couldn’t have dreamt of a better location for a trip to Iceland. Anna was superb in the least up and gave som many helpful suggestions. She was an impeccable host. So kind. Friendly and helpful. Thank you both for an idyllic stay.

Beautiful location and had everything we needed. The hot tub was great and the host gave very detailed directions on check in. Good base for exploring the south of Iceland.

The cabins sit on a road away from where reception is, and the instructions were clear to get there. The hot tub does take a while to fill up, since it is filled with geothermal spring water, but it is definitely a must in Iceland. Relaxing in the hot tub after a long day of hiking and traveling the Golden Circle was a perfect ending.

Of course! Here’s a shorter version: ⸻ A Truly Special Stay Staying at Johanna’s place was the highlight of our trip to Iceland. Knowing it was built by her father made it feel incredibly personal and meaningful—there’s a warmth and charm in every detail. Johanna was a fantastic host: kind, responsive, and always ready with thoughtful recommendations that made our visit even more memorable. The location is peaceful and perfectly situated for exploring. We left feeling connected not just to Iceland, but to the story behind this beautiful home. Absolutely unforgettable!

This home is even prettier in person. The summer landscape had beautiful green hills and purple flowers. The outside has been recently updated which really stood out among the surroundings. The hot tub was a great feature, at first we thought it might not be hot enough, but once we got in with the cool weather and windy breeze, it was perfect. The location is great for exploring and hiking. The wool sweaters, hats etc. were very nice and well made. Our Iceland trip has been so much fun, and this AIRBB was a great choice!

Great location, good accomodations and absolutely stunning sights! Quiet and completely private. Great spot to rest after a long day of travel and whale watching in atrocious seas. 100% worth it!

This place was peaceful, gorgeous, and exactly what I was looking for. The view was amazing, centrally located near both the golden circle and restaurants and amenities in selfoss. Sigrun and Sigurdur were wonderful hosts. The little stream chuckling beside the place was lovely. I would stay here again.

A lovely cabin in peaceful surroundings — the perfect place to recharge and enjoy a relaxing holiday. Highly recommended!

Audur's place is very comfortable and truly unique, ideal for a small group of friends or a family. The views are stunning and captivating in any whether. We arrived late in the evening after a long day of travel and were astonished by the welcome and care we experienced that evening. Audur is very kind. She shared many personal favorite sites with us. We will remember both the host and her place fondly as a highlight of our trip .

The farm is absolutely beautiful with many horses, cows, sheep (it was lambing season!), dogs, and cats. We loved walking around the property and visiting with all of the animals and taking in the gorgeous views. The farm is located about 2.5 miles down a gravel road, which was no problem in our tiny 2WD rental car in May. The house itself is one of about six or seven other tiny home type structures behind the host’s home, all fairly private. My only complaint is the pillows which were rather thin. The property is located about 10-15 minutes from beautiful waterfalls like Seljalandsfoss Gljufrabui.

We loved our stay, especially the hot tub! We were very close to Seljalandsfoss, Skogafoss, and other great hikes. Host was very communicative and left detailed instructions. Thank you so much!

Fabulous apartment with very easy access from airport. Comfy seats with the best view, close to shops & restaurants. We stayed for our first couple of nights in Iceland & was the perfect base to explore. Thank you!

This place is a little piece of heaven on earth, a dream come true! Cannot recommend it enough, and the hosts are the absolute best!! Absolutely planning to come back again!

The cottage is a real beauty. Located in a small forest its a perfect, cozy retreat. It has everything needed, we felt at home. Away from busy roads, but still conveniently located to visit Akuteyri, Husavik or the Myvatn-Region. Would absolutely book again if we hopefully come back to that region somewhere in the future.

Björgvin is a great host and his place was everything our group was looking for. Remote house, with a hot tub, grill and good vibes. The location and the view from the terrace is beautiful with only a few minutes drive to the nearest town. Björgvin was really friendly and offered his assistance if we needed anything which was a nice touch.

This place was absolutely stunning. The views were amazing, the surroundings were so peaceful, the beds were comfortable, and the kitchen well stocked. We cooked meals at the hut each evening and enjoyed the hot pool outside each day. I can’t recommend this place enough. Mikael is kind, thoughtful and has a lot of pride in his place. Far exceeded our expectations!

We spent two nights in the cabin. It exceeded all our expectations. The house has all the equipment described. The hot water bathtub made the difference. In the middle of nature, well cared for and clean. The host is communicative and polite. We would repeat.

Kristinn is an amazing host. Very responsive and always in communication. It really helped with our first visit to Iceland!

We loved our short but sweet stay at this peaceful location. Would definitely return on another trip! A perfect location for Golden Circle or heading further south. Loved it and the surroundings!

Photos were very accurate. The view in the morning was so pretty, and the house wasn’t hard to find. Jonina wasn’t available in person, but her sister helped direct us to the cabin at night, with no problem at all, and was very helpful. We all enjoyed our stay!

We had a wonderful time. Our children loved how comfortable they felt. We loved how close the public pool, bakery, yummy restaurants and ice cream shops were. Overall will return back to Iceland and would love to book again with Edda.

A unique and peaceful experience with mountain views and Icelandic horses and sheep in back field. Convenient location for seeing the sights on the way to Vik.
