Family-friendly holiday rentals in Sveitarfélagið Ölfus

Elsa's house is the perfect place to stay while exploring the golden circle and south of Iceland. The house is very cosy but definitely not too small for a family of five, well equipped and in walking distance from the beach. The hot tub is just amazing and also has a really great view. We stayed for a week and enjoyed every minute of it.

We had a fantastic stay at this property! The house boasts a stunning modern design with lots of natural light, and it's located in a peaceful yet convenient area. The garden and pool were highlights, providing a perfect space to relax and unwind. The kitchen was well-equipped, making it easy to cook meals, and there was plenty of space for everyone to feel comfortable. Our host, Sigridur, was incredibly helpful and accommodating, ensuring we had everything we needed for a great stay. Highly recommended for a relaxing getaway!

A beautiful home near Reykjavik (10 min drive) & conveniently located near highways for easy travel. Extremely clean and comfortable, amenities as described, amazing back porch and hot tub — felt right at home! Guðjón and his family were incredible hosts and made our first trip to Iceland a VERY special one! Shout out to Tommy & Tia, the house cats — we fell in love! Thank you again for everything; we cannot wait to return!

We stayed at Anna-Ellen apartment for 7 days. After daily trips to explore beauties of Iceland, we were getting back to the apartment with a pleasure. It very quickly got fill as home. The apartment is large, convenient and bright. It is well equipped for family stay, with all needed amenities. Anna-Ellen is very responsive and helpful host. Bottom line - we've really enjoyed our stay and thankful to great hospitality

Soggiorno in un alloggio magico, di fronte al lago, con una vista mozzafiato. La casa era molto pulita, silenziosissima, confortevole e attrezzata di ogni cosa necessaria. Posizione super, così come la comunicazione con gli host. Seguire attentamente le istruzioni dell’host per arrivare all’alloggio, non facilissimo da raggiungere con Google maps. Consigliatissimo! Non vediamo già l’ora di tornare. Grazie di tutto ad Emma e Oskar!

My family and I had such an amazing time at the Ingunn House! The house is amazing! It’s huge and well stocked, catering for every need! Joi is an awesome host, extremely attentive, super helpful and very welcoming! He gave us a huge amount of help in order to maximise the little time we had there. My party had elderly people and the house and location caters for everyone! Thank you Joi for making it so memorable! We will definitely be coming back very soon and will happily recommend to any friends or family visiting Reykjavik!

Had a fantastic stay at Gunnar's cottage. Everything we needed was at hand in the cottage. It was warm and cozy and and perfect for relaxing in the evening. We used the hot tub a couple of times and it was great. Managed to see the northern lights during our stay and it's a perfect location for seeing them and travelling around the Golden circle. Would definitely stay again.

Sigurdur’s place is outstanding. Easy to get to, near everything we could have needed and a short drive to many attractions. This exceeded our expectations and will stay again on our next trip.

Great and clean suite at a prime location. Comfortable beds. Just make sure to follow Google Maps directions instead of the recommendation by the host as it led us to a different building. Otherwise, all good.

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.

Asta was so helpful with local recommendations, and her house was clean welcoming. We had everything we needed right at our fingertips. The sauna and hot tub were great for relaxing. The location was perfectly central for exploring the Reykjavik peninsula.

Rakel’s home is like staying at a family member’s home while they are away! So warm and welcoming, and such a great environment for kids. So many cool toys for a kid to play with and very sweet guest rooms safe and comfortable for adults traveling with kids. Her home his warm, modern, clean, efficient and so close to Iceland’s many day trip attractions, and extremely close to Reykjavik! The neighborhood is quiet, and ideal. You can walk to the grocery store, a fast food restaurant and a great pizza parlor called Flaties! Worth the price. The space is magnificent. Washer dryer great, TV channels and streaming provided, and of course the hot tub! I would stay there again, and hope to visit their beautiful Iceland for a longer period soon! Rakel was gracious to let us use their city stroller too, which was immensely helpful! Loved our stay at their lovely home!-Jennifer

Liebevoll eingerichtetes , gut ausgestattetes und sauberes Haus . Sehr ruhige Lage und von hier aus ist der Golden Circle wunderbar entspannt zu erkunden . Es gibt in Selfoss sehr gute Einkaufsmöglichkeiten. Trausti ist sehr angenehm und hilfsbereit. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt und können die Unterkunft sehr empfehlen.

The house and host were wonderful from start to finish. We loved our stay and time in Iceland and it was the perfect base. Location brilliant with a car. Owner was very responsive and always available on message. Didnt hear anything from the neighbour who lives in an apartment within the property all week. Christmas decorations all over the house and a Christmas tree made us feel at home over the festive period. There's a great open space behind the house that we used for sledging. The laundry room was a godsend for drying outdoor wear. Highly recommend

Casa molto calda,comoda hai supermercati e zona molto tranquilla. La posizione e è ottima per intraprendere viaggi fuori reykjavik. A me è piaciuta molto!

Great house to stay near golden circle . Comfortable rooms , beautiful tub , awesome house vibes . Definitely recommended

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.

The place was nice and big. It was one of the few places in Iceland that had four bedrooms and two bathrooms. Lots of space to spread out and relax. Great view from the house. Easy to find, and off-street parking. Lots of room for the money. Just be aware that the house looked like someone was living there. By that I mean there were clothe in the closet, shoes in the entry way, and food in the refrigerator and freezer. It wasn't an issue for us, but some people don't like that. I would definitely rent from her again.

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!

A spacious, well lit apartment with great views and walking distance from the city centre. Edda was a very responsive and helpful host. The apartment was equipped with everything needed for a long trip to Iceland. We would definitely stay there again!

A well-equipped, spacious basement appartment in a quiet neighbourhood just outside Reykjavik. It is easy to reach by car, and there are supermarkets, gas stations and charging stations at a 5-minute drive distance. The hosts are very helpful and friendly. And, speaking as a cat lover: there are 2 gorgeous big cats walking around that will come and say hello.

Amazing amenities and location (quiet and residential but close to center!), and very good communication from Konni, even while he was traveling overseas. The neighborhood and neighbors are also very nice. Altogether great experience when traveling with friends or family!

nous avons passés trois nuits dans un logement très agréable à proximité de nombreux sites. il est très bien équipé, au calme et nous avons pu voir des aurores boréales depuis le canapé à travers les baies vitrées du salon. nous recommandons fortement ce logement ! merci pour l'accueil et les idées de visites à proximité !
