Great location in the historical district of Reykjavik. Within easy walking distance of restaurants, shopping, and night life. Great owners that were available and worked to get us all we needed. House had all 10 people needed.
Our family of 7 stayed for a week and it was very comfortable for all. Comfortable beds, functional kitchen, large dining space and plenty of room for lounging — though we were very busy and didn’t spend much time lounging. Close enough to walk to everything downtown. The decor of the house was fun and interesting — we all loved it.
The house is in a great location making it easy to walk to restaurants, shopping and local sights. There were 8 of us in our group and more than enough room to accommodate everyone. It is a lovely home. Five stars most definitely.
This was the most amazing home! We were in Reykjavik for our daughter's wedding, and we shared the home with our family. The glorious historic villa was absolutely perfect and perfectly enhanced our fairytale trip to Iceland. Thora was the kindest and most communicative host -- EVER. She was a joy to work with!
The Historical House was in an ideal location and provided plenty of space to enjoy togetherness. The property manager was very quick with helpful responses. One of our daughters picked up pastries nearby every morning that we enjoyed together over the large sharing table. The kids enjoyed small sleeping areas and it was just a very comfortable situation allowing day trips to Golden Circle and The Blue Lagoon. Delightful dinners were shared nearby each evening. I would highly recommend this VRBO
Our daughter's wedding was in Iceland so finding a comfortable place to stay for so many friends and family was challenging. Then I found this Villa! Oh my gosh, it's a beautiful, historic home that exceeded our expectations in every way! It had all the comforts of home packaged in a gorgeous house in a storied location ("Embassy Street"). We didn't want to leave! Also, the property manager, Thora, couldn't have been more wonderful and communicative. She responded to every question I had with immediacy and was thoughtful to check in with us after we had checked-in and out. I highly recommend this Villa in Reykjavik! Truly spectacular!
