Quiet and nice location

Perfectly based location for a few days at snaefellsnes. We really love the accommodation, it has a nice interieur and the contact to Jacob was also fine. He is intested that everything works fine for your stay at his house. Good place to see the northern lights, because its quite remote. Highly recommendation but you have to know that you have to clean at the end of your stay

Schönes Haus in toller Umgebung

Das Haus ist sauber und gemütlich. Perfekt für einen längeren Aufenthalt. Wir haben sogar die Nordlichter an mehreren Abenden direkt über dem Haus gehabt. Lediglich die Treppe ist etwas steil (wir waren mit Baby dort), aber es hat trotzdem gut geklappt. Ein bisschen mehr Zeit sollte bei Abreise eingeplant werden - man wäscht die Handtücher und Bettwäsche selbst.

Süsses Haus mit Selbstreinigung

Achtung liebe Gäste: dieses Ferienhaus verlangt eine Selbstreinigung, sprich: -Bettbezug waschen, tumblern & neu beziehen (es dauert lange, drum gut einplanen!) -Böden staubsaugen & feucht aufnehmen -Badzimmer & Küche putzen Da Fewo und der Hausbesitzer diese wichtige Information nicht deutlich an oberster Stelle vermerkten, sondern diese in einem unscheinbaren Link anhängten, wurden auch wir (wie so viele andere Gäste vor uns) überrascht. Da die Gäste mit meist viel Stress und ungeübt sich um die Reinigung kümmen, muss man bei der Buchung damit rechnen, dass das Haus in keinem gut gereinigten Zustand vorgefunden wird. (Bei uns war das Bad und die Küche unsauber…) Des Weiteren ist dieses Haus nur mit 2 anstatt den angegebenen 3 Schlafzimmern ausgestattet, da das dritte Zimmer keine Fenster hat und mehr einer Abstellkammer gleicht. Aus diesem Grund empfehlen wir es nur für 4 Personen weiter. Das Anwesen ist recht schön eingerichtet und wegen seiner guten Lage nahe bei allen Highlights in der Umgebung. Preislich ist es günstiger als andere Ferienhäuser und dementsprechend ganz ok ausgestattet (Küchenpfannen müssten dringend ersetzt werden sowie die ausgeleierte Couch in der Stube). Da der Hausbesitzer sich nicht um die defekte WC-Spülung kümmerte und unsere Anrufe ignorierte, vergeben wir nur 2 Sterne.

Fantastic stay in Snaefellnes

A fantastically situated house with the sea on one side and Snaefellsjökull on the other. For our stay in Iceland this accommodation was our third and the most beautiful. Very clean and modern, nicely furnished with very comfortable beds. Uncomplicated and fast communication with the landlords rounded off the super positive overall picture. We are very happy to come back! Many thanks to Elsa&Jakob!
