Cottage vacation rentals in Arnarstapi

Secluded enough for privacy and peace but close enough to markets and restaurants. We really enjoyed star gazing from the hot tub. There was no light pollution so we saw hundreds of stars. The cabin is super cozy and so cute.

We had an amazing stay at this cozy cabin. Host was very responsive and easy to get into the cabin. It is remote but not too far away from town, which was lovely to get a very quiet and private experience, and quite comfortable. Nice to have space to cook some meals in combination with eating out. We were able to see the northern lights since only other small cabin lights around, and no major light pollution. Very convenient to get to many attractions on the south island. Highly recommend!

Our family voted this the best of all that we stayed at in Iceland. Beautiful place. Much bigger than any other location we stayed. Most receptive host! We will stay here again.

Cozy little spot with everything we needed. Directions to the cabin from the host were very useful. Thanks!

Checkin was a breeze and Alfa was extremely helpful throughout our entire stay. Truly a beautiful home with everything you need, especially if you’re traveling with kids. Views from the home are absolutely stunning and the interior is very warm and welcoming. My family and I enjoyed our stay and would absolutely love to visit again.

Absolutely loved our stay! The host was 5-star—thoughtful, responsive, and made sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing visit. The place was spotless and so well-equipped. The mattress was incredibly comfortable and the hot tub was an amazing touch that made the stay feel extra special. Highly recommend!

My husband and I wanted to get away from the city and out in the country. This was the perfect place for us. The scenery around the cabin is breathtaking. We enjoyed the hottub and we're also able to view the Northern Lights on a few nights. The amenities inside were perfect and just what we needed. I was a little apprehensive about the shower being outside in a separate building, at first, but the water was hot and the pressure was excellent. Our stay was perfect and the communication with Vidar was top notch. Such a beautiful place.

This was our first time in Iceland and I’m so glad we chose Helga’s beautiful cabin to stay. The surroundings are amazing and something we will never forget. The house had everything we needed to be comfortable for the week. It was cozy, quiet, and felt private even with cabins nearby. Off the beaten path but close to our first stop on the Golden Circle. We enjoyed the hot tub, very relaxing after a lot of driving and hiking. We weren’t sure we’d see the northern lights so late in the season but ended up seeing them our last two days - right from the cabin deck and living room windows. After such a great trip, I hope to return to Iceland someday soon!

Our stay was perfect. The cabin was great and exactly as shown in the pictures. The place was clean and the kitchen was well stocked with appliances for a small kitchen. Eggert was quick to respond and check-in was easy and smooth. Great overall experience and would definitely recommend this place.

Cabin was great. Clean, nice, well stocked. We enjoyed our stay. The only real improvement would be exterior lighting. There are no exterior lights, so it was hard to find after dark.

Gudny was an amazing, generous, and kind host. We felt immediately right at home and the home is well stocked with everything you could need as you adventure around Iceland. The location was excellent for our needs and it was quiet with beautiful views. The home was exactly as expected and the hot tub and outdoor shower were excellent! We would 100% stay again and highly recommend staying!!

Had a great time, felt at home!

One of our memorable accommodation is this one with its very lovely cabin inside and out. It’s so cozy we dont want to leave! Everything we need is right there and it’s spotless. We learned of the story of the cabin and it became a more special stay. Thank you for allowing us to arrive early and all the suggestions we can do around the area. It was easy communicating with you and we had a fantastic stay!

Maria's cabin is out of the way on a small lake. The scenery is beautiful. The cabin had all the necessities and comfortable beds. One bedroom was on the small side, but the main bedroom was large. The only issue was a difference in how America and Icelandic people make their number 1's. I thought the Wi-Fi code had a 7 in it but it was a 1. After I figured that out, the Wi-Fi worked great. :-)

I have such happy memories of our time in Kristján’s cabin. It feels more like staying at a friend's place as there is such character throughout the home. It's ideal for 'hunkering down' amid stunning scenery. We loaded up on duty free wine and plenty of food at Bonus and spent our evenings cooking, chatting and playing games. There are plenty of cooking ingredients K is happy to share. The cabin is ideal for a digital detox and cutting yourself off from the world - although it also has excellent wi-fi. It's worth noting there aren't many restaurants locally - this is truly the wilderness. There are plenty of amazing things to see locally by car. Highlights include: Eiríksstaðir - Viking Longhouse - Sofie is an amazing storyteller and host Daytrip around Snæfellsjökull National Park Guðrúnarlaug Hot-tub Café Riis Hólmavík - Restaurant - Pizzeria & Bar & also Museum of Icelandic Sorcery and Witchcraft Kristján's cabin is a truly one-of-a-kind and memorable stay.

We stayed with our two adult children for hunting some northern lights. The accommodation was exceptional and exceeded our expectations. A true recommendation if you look for a private, clean, quiet and modern stay with stunning views. Ragnar was always available and a helpful host.

Our stay at this charming cottage in Borgarbyggð was absolutely perfect! The house had all the essentials. It felt like a true home away from home. The cottage itself was beautiful and peaceful, providing a serene escape after our days exploring West Iceland. Its location was ideal as a base for our adventures, allowing us to easily visit all the stunning sights in the region. We particularly appreciated the tranquility of the surroundings; it was so quiet and relaxing. The host was also very responsive. We highly recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful and well-equipped place to stay while exploring West Iceland. We'd love to return someday!

Very nice place to stay! I can really recommend this airbnb :)

A stay at Rainer's that leaves us with a wonderful memory. Very good communication, quiet home in a secure space, good location. Very well-equipped and very clean house. It feels like home. Only regret: not being able to stay longer. Without hesitation, a place to remember.

We had a magical time at Sabrina’s cabin! Sabrina was incredibly helpful, kind, and responsive. The cabin was clean, cozy, and had everything we needed as well as close to many sights. We saw the northern lights from the cabin our first night! Unforgettable :) Book it!!!

What a great place and really nice hosts. Too bad we were only staying one night. Would have loved to try the sauna and hot tub. Also a lot of interesting books, records and tourist info. Would absolutely come back!

The stay is even better than the pictures. The seating area with glasses is very peaceful to sit at. Everything written in the listing is available at the stay, I would love to come back to this place

We enjoyed our two nights at Vilmundur's very much. What a paradise, more beautiful and fun than in the photos. Nice and spacious, cozily furnished, very nice outdoor space. Also great for our 1.5 year old daughter. Our nicest stay in Iceland and then also northern lights seen from the hot tub.

I had a great stay at the cabin. It is a very authentic cabin making you feel at home straight away. The location is stunning, the surrounding area blows you away, if you like trees (unique in Iceland) around you, have a view in the lake and don’t mind the kind sheeps walking around the cottage…this your place to be.
