House was beautiful over looking the fjords. Our flights were changed to late evening and host was very accommodating for us to stay later than the checkout time as there was none coming in till the next day .It was really appreciated by us all .Will come back and stay again
Everything was absolutely amazing. Such a beautiful property, it was a perfect home base for exploring Northern Iceland. Probably our favorite vacation rental of all time.
Absolutely GORGEOUS property with exceptional views from the living areas. We loved this home! It has everything you will ever need for a fabulous stay in Iceland. Very clean home with responsive host. I highly recommend this place to anyone coming to the northern part of Iceland.
We loved our stay in this wonderful house and the host was respectful and nice. The only minus in my opinion would be that there's no barbeque at the house.
Our stay over the last four days in Akureyri were made even more special by this beautiful well appointed property. It provides comfortable luxury in a breathtaking location! This is our second stay and will be back!
Gorgeous and very large. Excellent views and minutes to downtown. Great convenience to have laundry. ( microwave didn’t work and had trouble with the lock. )
The location is excellent, quiet with outstanding view. The Villa is very spacious and among the most luxury available. Will definitely stay there again
Well stocked house with great location - outside of the bustle of town but close enough to quickly access everything. Forest Lagoon just down the road was perfect for a relaxing dip, they are even open late so you can stop by after dinner! Hosts were responsive and helpful. Would stay again if back in the area!
We were with two Families in this a great and spcious Villa. The location was excellent and vry close by car to the most important locations in Aukeryri.
The host was very nice and the check in was very easy.
This must be a hidden gem in Akureyri! The villa sits on a vast piece of land with its own private road. It is spacious and exquisitely furnished and expounds a luxurious feeling. The villa is well kept and clean.The rooms are spacious and the open concept kitchen is furnished with all the amenities needed for big family meals.Great views from the patio, especially when planes take off and land from the airstrip in the valley below.The owners and the house keeper are super friendly and responsive.We totally enjoyed our stay and highly recommend.Ps. The hot tub at the patio was a great bonus!!
Stunning and convenient location for the town and airport yet felt like a sufficient distance away, wonderful modern property that was perfect for our family (of seven), lovely hot tub, great location for Aurora spotting and forest lagoon. Friendly and communicate hosts who interacted with us at all stages. A wonderful first visit to Akureyri - we will be back again soon!
