Guest reviews for Borgarbæli
"We loved our stay here. It is remote and peaceful, yet just a short drive to route 1. We enjoyed amazing views of the nearby glacier from the deck and the horses which roam the field. The inside is small but comfortable even for our family of 4 adults. The beds are very comfortable and the kitchen is well stocked with pots and pans. The hosts, who live part time in the house also on the property, are very nice and helpful."

"Nice to use the hot tub at the end of the day. Beautiful landscapes to look at while soaking."
"The bathroom and kitchen are both very small. The whole cottage is very cosy and sweet, but the shower and meal preparation were both almost too small to comfortably use."
"Charming cabin in a remote area. Exactly what we were looking for. There was a bit of driving involved to get there, but we did not mind. Communication with the owners prior to the trip was very good, they made sure we found the cabin easily. The location is close enough for trips to the glacier lagoon, the Golden Circle, Selfoss, Vestmanneyjar island the black beach and Hella, where one can catch the highland busses for day trips into the mountainous areas. Still so much we missed to visit, so we might have to come back. Spacious rooms which are perfect for a family of 4 or 5, very comfortable beds, clean bathroom and kitchen with all necessary supplies. We could not ask for more. There even was an outdoor grill and a jacuzzi, but we did not get the chance to use it (we've been out quite a lot). And nothing beats early morning coffee on the terrace while enjoying the magnificent view and the birds singing <3"

"Very nice and quiet place to stay. It had a hot tub with a nice view. It had all needed equipment."
"Low water pressure. Most of the lights were not working. Not that we needed them this time of year so it wasn't a big ptoblem. On the second floor not to much space for an adult but for children it should be ok."
"Good location, traveling by car is a default, the house is warm and cozy. Very correct hosts."

"Nice appartment at a remote location. Well situated if you want to visit Landmannalaugur via the easy route; F26&F208 (probably also doable with a 2WD). Large garden, nice hot tub, and two horses that like attention at the premises."
"Apart from the horses, we did not meet anyone there, including the owners (they supposedly are very nice people ;-) ). The second bedroom was at the attick, which had to be reached via a steep ladder. Not really a problem, just don't expect a large sleeping room."
"The host put some attention to detail, especially in regards to wall hooks. The was an outside grill for cooking and the host came over to show us how to operate it."
"Two things i did not like. The first was the diffculity in paying, which was altogether the fault of Booking.Com screwed up system. We almost had to resort to paying in cash ... where we were a bit short. Only the last day did Booking.com resolve the situation. The second issue was simply finding the property. The name was not correct so Waze could not find it, and at the time te host was not there to answer out calls."
"Bra läge för utflykter längs Islands sydvästra kuststräcka. Fräscht, naturnära, värdfamiljens hästar och jacuzzin efter en dag fylld med strapatser. Borde ha bokat några extra dagar för att njuta av lugnet vid Heklas fot."
"Aucun."
"Heel compleet klein huisje. Fijne bedden, prima keukentje, prachtig uitzicht, helemaal als je het geluk hebt er met mooi weer te zijn. Heerlijke hottub en buitendouche."
"Eigenlijk niets. Het huisje ligt erg afgelegen, boodschappen moet je goed plannen (zoals op veel plekken in IJsland."

Maris Ocean View Suite
"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!"

"Inside nice had everything we needed. Outside not so much"
Karen Dream Guesthouse
"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. :)"
