Guest reviews for Svartaborg
"The villa was our favorite place in Iceland. The place had everything we needed, was spacious and extremely comfortable. We especially enjoyed the hot tub, which we used every afternoon! Our hosts was accommodating and very responsive. An exceptional experience 😬"
"We loved everything! I can’t think of anything that could be done any better!"
"Extremely beautiful space and set up. We absolutely loved the peace and hot pot and northern lights."
"NA"
"The location, property and facilities were impeccable, having been to Iceland a number of times this is far and above the best place I’ve stayed! Wonderful hosts with clear directions to the property, cannot recommend enough and 100% will be staying again later this year."
"Nothing not to love!"
"We reserve on the same day to stay and it was snowed during the day after we arrived a person came to do the snow removal with a big machine. We did not get the chance to use the hot tub."
"If there is a snow, this place might be a little not easy to get to the property. otherwise it is an excellent place."
"Very well appointed cabin that is quite isolated for beautiful night time sky viewing! Excellent hot pot, bbq. Sitting area. All very new and comfortable. Even though it is remote, it's still close enough to Húsavík and Akureryi for day trips. Excellent place for nature.. I took the picture in my review lying in the bed! Excellent floor to ceiling windows. I would ask for cabin #1 so you aren't looking out over the other cabins."
"It was perfect for myself, a solo traveler. I would not want to have more than one couple, or possibly two adults and one kid. I loved the size, this is just a caution if you're a larger group, get multiple cabins."
"We had a wonderful time and experience spending at Svartaborg's cabin. We wish we could stay here a bit longer. It is really easy to checkin and get to the location. We booked 3 cabins. They arranged us stayed closed to each other which is really thoughtful. The cabin kitchen is with everything you need even with a oven. It makes us much easier to cook dinner and breakfast for six of us. The location is perfect. It only takes 30-40mins drive to Húsavík and Mývatn. The cozy cabin with separated bedroom and living room makes us just wanna stay home and enjoy the moments. We arrived at night time, it took us a little time to be able to see the door number but we understand this is to keep the light down to respect the environment. Definitely recommend you stay with Svartaborg :)"

"In our 9 day trip to Iceland, this was the best place we stayed. The location is remote, set on the western hillside of an expansive valley about 20 minutes south of Husavik and 45 minutes NE of Akureyri. We stayed here for two night. Was the perfect location to see the Northern Lights. We watched them for about an hour and got amazing pics. Very spacious living room and kitchen area. Full kitchen with pots, pans, dishes, dishwasher, fridge, etc. There is a geothermal hot tub that is easy to operate, although it smelled a little like sulfur. I would stay here again in a heartbeat."
"There's nothing I didn't like about this location."
"The building and the location are simply stunning. Everything from the kitchen, the bathroom, the hot pot, bedroom had been thought through. Everything is in impeccable condition. You have plenty of room the breathe and relax."

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. :)"
"The cottage was very clean and had everything we needed plus some extra perks like coffee and cookies. The location was extremely beautiful being located near the bottom of a mountain and conveniently located near Vik."

"The best apartment I visited this year. Everything is brand new, extremely well thought out, and beautifully executed. The design is outstanding, the space is generous, and everything is very comfortable and practical. Located in a great area. I have absolutely no complaints — for the first time, I’m giving a 10 out of 10."
