Vacation rentals in Hellnar

The Jon’s place was more than we expected. It located in a peaceful valley with a beautiful view and waterfalls next to it. The lodge was clean, spacious and well insulated even the strong wind blowing sometimes. We enjoyed many hiking places nearby and came back to this cosy accommodation to relax. Jon is a wonderful host with quick responses. We had a fantastic holiday!

We felt like we walked into a clean and lovely home. Very well stocked and beautifully located with the view of a glacier from the sunroom! We saw the aurora borealis right off the back step, and enjoyed our stay. Lots of room in the house but (we didn’t know ahead of time) the bathroom is on the main floor with the 1st floor bedroom. Bedrooms upstairs (set up for an adult room and kids room with 3 beds) is up a very steep staircase. This didn’t bother us, but our adult son, who stayed upstairs, mentioned it would be difficult taking kids to the bathroom during the night. Just a little something to add to the listing. Kind and communicative host, and we would definitely recommend it!

We had such a wonderful stay here - this is a cosy farm stay close enough to Reykjavík but far enough to have clear skies to see the Northern Lights if you’re lucky enough. We absolutely loved the kitchen, the coffee moccamaster and having access to a washing machine. A super warm, nicely decorated place and huge bed! Probably one of my favourite Airbnbs I’ve ever stayed in. Disa is super lovely and so is Bonzo the dog! Highly recommend to anyone travelling to Iceland ❤️

We had an amazing time at Geir’s family home! This was an incredible place to spend the new year and we would absolutely return! The location is perfect. We were able to walk outside the city lights a short distance to get an amazing view of the northern lights. A designated lookout is also a short car ride away. Plus, downtown Reykjavík is a short car or bus ride away! It could also be a good walk for those who like to hike.

This place is a wonderful, peaceful escape! It is a bit removed from things, but it was exactly what we were looking for. We saw the northern lights multiple times. Absolutely perfect!!

A modern spacious house located in a quiet neighborhood with a lovely cat. Lina might be one of the friendliest cats we've ever encountered. We loved staying here with her! Hroar was always available and easy to communicate with. If you're looking for a beautiful house and aren't afraid of a sweet cat, this is your place to go!

I stayed the night before going to the airport. The house was really big, tidy, and nice, so it was a shame that I had to leave early in the morning. There were 2 bathrooms, 3 rooms, 2 double beds, and 2 single beds. The sofa in the living room was really big and comfortable, so it was nice to watch the big TV together. It was equipped with all the kitchen utensils, but there were only four forks. Besides, it was nice to have welcome snacks and coffee. I think it took about 50 minutes from downtown Reykjavik. There were no shops within walking distance, but it seemed to be about 10 minutes by car.

Himri was the absolute perfect place to stay for me and my friends. We saw the Northern Lights directly above and in front of the house, loved being surrounded by mountains, and found the drive to other places in our itinerary incredibly easy. The house had everything we could possibly need for our stay, including kitchen basics and coffee. The hot tub and sauna were the perfect means of relaxing after a long day of hiking and exploring. Berglind's communication was swift, thorough, and friendly, and we even received notice directly of the evacuations that were happening to the south as a result of the volcanic eruption (we were completely safe, but the message from our host was greatly appreciated). I hope to return to Iceland in the future, and there is nowhere else I would choose to stay.
