"The surrounding forest was beautiful and very quiet. We especially enjoyed the hot tub!"

"Aucun."

"Clean, cozy. Great location. Lots of personal touches. Good coffee, good kitchen for easy meals. Even an air fryer for convenience."

"Hot tub drain leaked so it took a long time to fill. Was able to use it that night regardless, and we notified the host so hopefully that will be fixed for future guests."

"An incredible cottage stay that we won’t forget. Comfortable & quiet with all the amenities, along with a hot spring fed spa!!! A true gem tucked into the trees in the mountainside. Highly recommend!"

"Shower was slightly outdated, but water temp and pressure made up for it. Bed mattresses mildly stiff."

"Brilliant little cabin in a very easy to reach location just off Route 1 yet somehow feels very remote and private. The cabin is brilliant inside and out. The bathroom is perhaps a little outdated but this is a cabin near some trees, not a city hotel so it fits with the vibe. Lots of little bits inside to help with your stay. We were disappointed that the only TV there was PPV channels but this was actually a blessing as it meant we spent time doing things other than watching TV which was much better! The owners are brilliant and very responsive and helpful. The photos attached were taken at the cabin on my iPhone on standard settings and have not been edited/enhanced in any way so yes, it’s a good place to see the Northern Lights without having to travel which is nice!"

"Bathroom could do with a refresh around the floor and shower. Just a cheap corner cubicle and some Lino on the floor would go a long way"

"The cabin had all the facilities we needed for the short stay. Hot tub was lovely, although we couldn't seem to get it quite hot enough."

"Aucun."

"Comfortable, cosy, well decorated cottage in a convenient location. Quiet and private it had everything you need need for a relaxing stay."

"Bathroom could use a face-lift although everything worked fine."

"A clean and comfortable stay in a fabulous location. The scenery is amazing and the proximity to route 1 means that visiting places such as pingvellir is easy. The hot tub is wonderful. The area is so private and quiet that we slept better here than we have in years!"

"Aucun."

Guest reviews

"Lots of thoughtful amenities, sweet treats and delicious coffee. Spotlessly clean and very comfortable. Communication with host was excellent. We would definitely book again."

Connie BergOne

"Nice spacious flat with excellent view. Nice furniture. Crossfit equipment there as it used to be a gym studio."

"Spacious and perfect for a family of 6! Loved the location for us as we were trekking around the area! We did some Reykjavík, Golden Circle, and Blue Lagoon. Love the quiet community near the ocean with a perfect view to the north for lights!"

"Stunning location. Great view. Lots of room. Very well maintained."

"The location, the staff, the facilites, parking and the beautiful view"

Josebau The Barn

"Inside nice had everything we needed. Outside not so much"

"We recently stayed at Eystri-Solheimar for 3 nights. The host Einar and his staff were extremely helpful, attentive, the room was very clean and spaceious, very quiet. The breakfast/coffee was nice. We would stay there again next time if we go. Btw, he can speak Chinese! We wish that we could have seen the northern lights, but that's not Einar's fault, he then sent me some spectacular pictures from his phone as a compensation. :)"
