Nothing

This was hands down our favorite place we stayed in Iceland. We were there at the beginning of our trip, and measured everything else up against this stay. The hosts, Daniel and Samantha were really responsive to all of our questions (including how to turn on the heaters) and we got a good sense of their interests from the decor, which was fun. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking, and the views out the window were indescribably beautiful. Out of one window, the sea. Out of another, mountains, a little river and a waterfall. Out the back, volcano and glacier. I would come back to Iceland just to stay here again. :) We decided to just walk from the house to do the Arnarstapi to Hellnar hike along the sea instead of dealing with the car, and that worked out well. A few basic but cute restaurants just 2 minutes away were helpful for dinner as well, all within sight of Snaefellsnes' own guardian troll statue.

It was a bit stuffy in there so had to open up doors which allowed flies to come in

Incredible location and views. Spacious and very comfortable Definitely worth booking!

You cannot beat the location of this home and the views are incredible. The village has beautiful hikes that you can do, and the property is just a short walk to the cliffs overlooking the beach. The beds are very comfortable, and the kitchen is well supplied if you want to cook. We sure hated to leave this house and would Iove to come back and stay here again.

They could use a few deck chairs.

The views are spectacular. Well stocked kitchen. 2 min walk to the views of the coast line.

An incredible find! The house is beautiful inside and set in a stunning location—glacier on one side, the sea on the other. Perfect location for seeing the peninsula. Would be thrilled to stay there again.

I wish I had known that the restaurants all close early at night; we went out about 6:00 pm to find food and there was none.

A beautiful cabin and a lovely little village.

It does take a bit to find, but just keep driving on the road.

Kitchen was well stocked with equipment and supplies that would be annoying to buy for a trip, like olive oil and spices. There was a drip coffee pot and coffee as well. The views were great and the patio had a nice place to sit with morning coffee. Couches were cozy enough that I almost fell asleep on them. Guestbook also had great suggestions and hosts were extremely responsive when we had questions. It was So Close to all the hiking too!

Out of all the houses we stayed in Iceland this was the most comfortable with best amenities! Really comfortable beds, huge closet and massive living space. The layout was so convenient because all the space was usable. Modern kitchen with new stove and all the pots, pans and items you may need. Great coffee selection - real coffee, no pods! Coffee for us is important. There was also tea, sugar, hot chocolate, oil, spices, many considerate items to help with cooking. Toaster, kettle, etc.

Bed linens and pillows were poor quality. Bathroom door would not close entirely. Not enough lighting fixtures in great room and no fixture in kitchen area made it difficult to cook and wash at night. Odd light fixtures in bedroom actually blocked light. kitchen can use additional glassware other amenities.

exceptional location with views to the ocean and to a mountain. open great room large windows were were enjoyed every moment.

The beds are a bit too small for a couple.

The place is super cozy, the house is perfectly localized. Exploring the area is a bliss.

We had the best stay! The house's location was private with an open floor plan and windows that looked out to the ocean on one side and the glacier on the other. Big common space and kitchen, which we used to make all meals. Kitchen has a new touch stove, which was easy to keep clean. Plenty of pots, pans and baking items. Coffee and tea in the house was also good. Nice touch to have drinks available and we find coffee important. It was great to have a smart TV- made everything feel modern even in the countryside. The house decor had style and it did not feel like an average hotel room. Lighting was also great, considering how dark it got we had plenty of options of what to turn on and off. Would definitely return to experience the area in another season!
