Holiday rentals with lake access in Sveitarfélagið Ölfus

Can’t say enough about how easy and responsive David was. His motorhome was perfect for our trip and he was able to answer questions within minutes. We would not hesitate to rent from him again.

If you are looking to stay near the National Park and enjoy a private, incredibly quite relaxing trip, this is the most amazing choice. For us this home was the perfect space, incredible design, stunning views with impeccable lighting. We needed to rest and relax while exploring the vast landscape of Iceland and this was beyond perfect. We will absolutely be back.

We had a fantastic vacation in Iceland staying at Jon’s house. We had plenty of room, we were comfortable, and we had nice evenings in the garden soaking in the hot tub. We certainly recommend it for anyone planning an Iceland get away that needs space for the whole family.

Absolutely amazing stay at such a beautiful home. The large windows made the last night with Auroras absolutely amazing. It was extremely comfortable and the Sauna just completed the whole stay. 10/10 would recommend, 10/10 would stay again.

Sara’s place felt at home. We were comfortable. With 5 of us, 2 living spaces really helped. We are able to have our own spaces within the house. A relatively new home, fast internet and while it’s was super freezing out there, we were snug as a bug! Would happily return. Great communication too. 👍🏼

We very much enjoyed our stay here! It was great home base for our day trips. The Airbnb had everything we needed as well. Olafur was very helpful and responsive. There were also more toys here for the kids than we’ve had at any other Airbnb which was perfect for keeping the kids busy. Would definitely stay here again.

Great for families and convenient location for Reykjavik and the airport. Would highly recommend. Pros Quiet neighbourhood. Responsive host. Honoured the booking even though there was some sort of mix-up. Super helpful and the additional information during bad weather was really appreciated. Clean, tidy, spacious and comfortable. Great for families with young children. Improve Netflix on the main tv would be useful.

There were five of us in the property and we had a fantastic time. The decor of the apartment is great and very stylish. We slept great. Small issues were resolved immediately, communication was great. We were particularly pleased with visits from Kater Felix. The location is very good. The supermarket is around the corner, the city in 15 minutes and the sights in the area are all easily accessible. We were eating in one of Valdimar's restaurants and very satisfied. We would come back anytime.

Great time in Iceland with our little one! The place was easy access after long days visiting the surrounding of Reykjavik.

Everything was fine with the accommodation. Milad answers questions quickly. Parking is great. Fully equipped kitchen.

Helga was extremely responsive and the information she shared was incredibly helpful! She made sure everything was set for our 11 month old and provided great recommendations. One of our group had a later flight and she was super flexible with a later flexible time. Would highly recommend staying here.

Nice host Very clean High recommend

Great apartment with lots of space for kids to play, we enjoyed the stay

My family and I (5 adults) had a great stay there. Hjalmar and his wife greeted us when we arrived at the house. He was very responsive and flexible with our check-in. The place was clean and comfortable. It had everything. We would stay there again. Highly recommend!

The host is very friendly and helpful, even though we booked the place at the last minute. He had the place ready for us within a few hours. The location is convenient, about 20 minutes from downtown Reykjavik, with free parking available in either an outdoor lot or an indoor garage. It is also very close to a Bonus, a grocery store chain popular with locals. The apartment is very clean, tastefully decorated, and equipped with many luxury amenities. This is definitely a home away from home that we would love to return to. Thank you, Jon!

Perfect communication, spontanious booking was no problem, room was clean and good! Thank you!

We can’t fault our stay here. The accommodation was super clean, it was brilliantly placed around the majority of the landmarks and the insulation was keeping it very toasty even in colder temperatures! We also used the kitchen to cook some of our own meals which was handy, given it can be costly to keep eating in restaurants and cafes. The ONLY thing we’d change is maybe slightly more room to cook, but this is absolutely minor and you can easily cook good food with what you have. Loved it here! :)

Our stay was perfect. The cabin was great and exactly as shown in the pictures. The place was clean and the kitchen was well stocked with appliances for a small kitchen. Eggert was quick to respond and check-in was easy and smooth. Great overall experience and would definitely recommend this place.

If I could give more than 5*, I would! This was a wonderful, beautiful spot. The home is beautifully designed with so many gorgeous touches. The beds were very comfortable (with excellent black out curtains). There is a private beach which felt other worldly with black sand dunes. It is a bit of a drive to anywhere but if you like being remote, then it’s ideal. We felt so at home and would love to return.

Very cosy cottage. Smári was really helpfull and answered quickly if we had any questions or requestes.

This cottage has a wonderful view of the lake. It was very comfortable for four adults and a toddler. We were at peace listening to nature and watching the lake. The host was very communicative and helpful. The location is very close to the Golden Circle's must-see locations. The closest town was an 8-minute drive and had great local restaurants. I highly recommend this stay.

My husband and I wanted to get away from the city and out in the country. This was the perfect place for us. The scenery around the cabin is breathtaking. We enjoyed the hottub and we're also able to view the Northern Lights on a few nights. The amenities inside were perfect and just what we needed. I was a little apprehensive about the shower being outside in a separate building, at first, but the water was hot and the pressure was excellent. Our stay was perfect and the communication with Vidar was top notch. Such a beautiful place.

Amazing and beautiful rental for our first time in Iceland! Helga is very communicative and very responsive. We had a lovely time and will definitely return in the future.

My family had a wonderful stay here whilst visiting the Golden Circle area. There are amazing views in all directions with only the sound of birds and an occasional sheep. The outdoor furniture and hot tub are wonderful for making the most of the surroundings. The house is beautiful inside and out, with super comfy sofas and a large dining table, and we appreciated the high quality linens and towels. A small supermarket and good pizza restaurant about 8 minutes drive.
