What a wonderful stay for our family. The space was perfect for our group of 8 adults. The property was conveniently located near many attractions but far enough out of town to allow us to see the northern lights almost every night. The kitchen was well appointed. The main living area was spacious and bright. The saunas were a huge bonus and something we used almost everyday. Thorsteinn was a great host. They answered our questions promptly. I cannot recommend this place enough. Thanks for a wonderful stay.
Northern lights visible right outside our door.

This house was the perfect spot for an Iceland trip. It is well-positioned in the Golden Circle but only about 15 minutes away from Selfoss and Hveragerði. There are beautiful views from the house. The sauna and hot tub (pool) were a bonus.

We had an excellent stay here. Everything was exactly as it was in the photos and descriptions. It was very easy to find, and easy to get to. We had a shorter stay, and it was a great location for us to access our other activities. The house was very clean and perfectly prepared for our arrival. The porch, hot tub and sauna outside were wonderful to utilize. As a group of seven, the house was a great size. Additionally, one of us had to do some work during the stay and the wifi had no issues. There were minimal departure requests as well, basic clean up that we would have done anyway. We would (and hopefully will be) staying here again. Thank you for a fantastic long weekend!

Great Location, Great Stay

I stayed here with my wife and adult children for part of our Iceland vacation. House was in great location for visits to the Golden Circle and we all enjoyed our stay. Check-in and check-out were easy, amenities were as described and communication from host was prompt. We would differently stay again if we visit in the future.

We have been involved in tourism for more than 20 years.

Why they chose this property

We built this house 2008. Grund is located in the heart of the popular Golden Circle. Close to Reykjavik, the capital and very short to get service at Selfoss and Hveragerdi. A lot of things to see and do in the neighborhood but also an excellent place to do just nothing but relax and enjoy the nature.

What makes this property unique

The size and quality of Grund and the location makes it unique.
