Rooms were large and clean, which helped with my family of four. There aren't a lot of options in that area of the ring road, but it is in the middle of nowhere, so be prepared for a 10 min drive off the ring road.
Ample parking, perfect location to see Aurora. Wonderful and understanding host. Great facilities, all round amazing experience, definitely recommend.

Pros- cute little apartment that is clean, peaceful, very easy check in process.
Cons- seriously in the middle of no where. Must come prepared with gas in your car and food. there is nothing nearby. also, gravel road leading to the apartments is not the best.
Cozy, sweet little retreat. It was a bit off the beaten path and for a few uncomfortable 8pm moments we thought we booked something that did not actually exist :)
Well, it's real and honestly in comparison to six other places this one won us over. It's not a luxury place, but it is so clean and so well maintained with radiant heat and nice loving touches like tea bags and coffee and little squares of chocolate awaiting us. Beds were comfortable, bedding soft and the way the two bedrooms were separated (there were four of us: two adults and two teens) was perfect. Great night stay after a full day of getting soaking wet exploring this absolutely amazing country.

Beautiful location, amenities were great, new and clean.
Loved this apartment! Great views from the property. We had about 15 minutes of drive off the main road on a gravel road which looked scary at first because the entire road looked so deserted. But we soon found out these types of roads are pretty common in Iceland. We were glad we already had brought groceries so we didn't have to go search for one around. But beautiful property and worth the price we paid. Enjoyed the morning coffee with the mountain view

Great stay
Great place to stay. Comfy, great black out shades for the midnight sun, spacious, compact kitchen to cook.
Only negative is it is a good 10-15 minutes off the ring road driving on a bumpy dirt road.

The place itself is remote but so gorgeous! They provide you with coffee and milk which was great.

Great place to stay on the South Coast of Iceland
Spotlessly clean, very comfortable bed, quiet, modern, well equipped. The nicest place we stayed in Iceland. Tip: Yes, there is quite a long, unpaved road leading from the main coast road to Stracta. The road is fine, just keep going.

Place has everything you need. Quit, with the nice view. Bumpy road to get in, from the main road, but overall excellent.
Would recommend, to bring your slippers.

Unfortunately, this stay was not what we expected. The apartment itself was nice, but the location and setup made our experience less enjoyable.
The road to get there is a very long gravel road, which became uncomfortable and time-consuming every time we wanted to go in or out. We felt like we lost a lot of time just getting back to the property.
Another thing we didn’t love was the lack of privacy. The apartment has windows everywhere and feels a little bit like a glass house. Even though there are curtains, we still felt very exposed and like people could easily see inside from different angles.
Overall, it may work for some travelers who want something very remote and don’t mind the extra driving, but for us it wasn’t the best fit.
