Villa vacation rentals in Iceland

This place was awesome! My kids especially loved the pool table and hot tub! Great communication and exactly what we expected.

The place was beautiful and the view from the place was even better. Couldn’t recommend enough, we loved our stay! The valley helped with cloud coverage and we were able to see the northern lights from our hot tub!

Beautiful villa surrounded by spectacular views. We needed last minute accommodation after a long journey and Katrín’s place met all of our needs. Exceptionally easy check in and the villa is bright, modern and warm. Thank You

A great Airbnb. Modernly furnished but totally cozy. We felt right at home. The hot tub on the terrace: a dream. Great to find with the description. The hosts are always available by phone and take excellent care.

Kristin’s place was incredible and she is so friendly. I highly recommend this Airbnb as the experience was amazing and I would only stay here when I return back to Iceland.

The house was extremely cozy and comfortable. The sauna is definitely a plus! The hot tub had an issue and Hannes immediately offered us an extra night for free. He was very responsive and friendly. The gaming room is way more fun than it looks at first glance, and the price is totally worth it for what it offers.

We absolutely loved every second of our stay at Eugenias beautiful home. From the gorgeous exterior to the perfect layout to the sauna/hottub/cold plunge with the babbling stream running alongside. Magical! The setting was incredibly stunning and was truly one of our favorite views in all of Western Iceland. Close enough to Reykjavik while still feeling a world away. How lucky we felt to call it home each day we returned from exploring. Traveling as a family of five with three young children (9, 7, 6) we were also grateful for the lovely amenities (legos!) that made our time at home extra enjoyable for the kids. Enjoying a coffee each morning with the incredible views of the snow capped mountains was such a treat as was a night of Northern Lights! We've traveled to many Airbnbs across the world and Eugenia tops the list as the most helpful, kind, thoughtful host we've encountered. Being able to stay in her home felt so authentically Iceland and made for the most memorable trip!

We travel to Iceland often and this is now at the top of our favorites list. The history and authenticity of the home is super interesting and very fun, but the upgrades and amenities make sure that you have no loss of creature comforts. The low ceilinged sleeping arrangements were challenging for two vertically gifted people, but we considered the contortions required to be our flexibility workouts for the week. We love to be west of center city and this location is just far enough from the hub-bub to be convenient and peaceful. If you want to get out of the city, the included car is great for grabbing supplies or visiting farther flung activities. Margret was super helpful and had very fast communication, a great host experience. This will be a highly recommended location for anyone, without small children or elders, that asks me for suggestions.

We booked Svavar's place in Setberg to explore the Snaefellsnes peninsula, having never been there. The house faces the Atlantic Ocean and also south towards Kirkjufell. It's an amazing location. The house is about 12-15 minutes from the nearest town which has a small grocery store, a liquor store (do all your liquor buying on arrival at the airport to save a LOT of money) and couple of restaurants. The house is FULLY stocked. Whatever you could possibly need is there. The kitchen is set to cook. I made 3 full dinners there instead of going out. We got lucky due to clear weather and a serious solar flare, so we saw the Northern Lights every night there! The patio is wonderful and when the wind subsided we even sat outside a bit. Svavar is fantastic at communicating and always helpful if we had a question. He was very generous all around. I would absolutely recommend this house if you want to get away from the crowds. There is NO one around you! Fantastic accommodation!

What’s an absolutely beautiful family home . We felt right at home here . so much that I didn’t want to come back home to England :( very spacious decorated lovely . It was the middle of winter and it was extremely warm for us as well. It was decorated beautifully with Christmas decorations and lots of treats left for us . Thankyou nothing was a problem . looked after the family Cat who was absolutely delightful And no trouble at all . Very close to everything supermarket round the corner, got everywhere very easy was really sad to leave. Would definitely love to come back one day. Thankyou so much xxx

What a wonderful place and in the perfect location for exploring the Golden Circle. The house was plenty big for the eight adults in our group, and we were all able to spread out, but also come together for meals and games. Although we didn’t use it, the hot tub was a great amenity. Our host was wonderful and very responsive when I contacted her with a question before booking and also when I needed to turn off the security system. We would highly recommend staying here.

We had an excellent stay at The Mountain Villa in early February. Hafþór and Björn were gracious hosts, responding to queries quickly and providing clear instructions to find and access the place. The villa itself was as charming and idillic as we had expected, everything was perfectly clean and tidy on arrival and the facilities were fantastic; we particularly enjoyed the sauna and cold plunge after long days exploring. Flúðir was a quiet little village but perfect for what we wanted, with enough options to eat and drink for the short time we were there, and easily walkable from the villa. The hospitality at Restaurant Minilik was particularly excellent, and the Secret Lagoon is definitely worth a visit too! The Mountain Villa was a perfect hub to explore the region, with lots of sights and walks within a 30 minute drive, and a good place to travel further into the South from. Overall, a perfect stay and we hope to visit again in the future! Thank you Hafþór and Björn!

Berglind responded very quickly and provided all the information we needed! The house was very clean, and the kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed. Soaking in the hot tub at night was truly relaxing! The host warmly took us to see the horses, which were very friendly. Thank you to the host for giving us a wonderful night in Iceland!

Had a great stay. Good sized house, especially for Iceland. Great location for walking the city, sightseeing, and restaurants. Felt safe and even though the house is right on a busy road, it was quiet. Had everything we needed in the kitchrn to make our fairly simple meals. Slept great. Was exactly what our family of 8 needed. Had no issues. Fit both of our mid-sized SUVs in the parking spot. The hostess was very proactive and communicative. Felt like I knew the place before I got there. It was pricy, but as I recall, all the options I looked at were. Overall, had a great stay. Just what we were looking for. Would stay again if in the area.

Kjartan's Borgarnes Villa was everything we hoped it would be. The views were amazing, the lake access was enjoyed and the deck time was spectacular!

The other reviews are not wrong, this place is stellar and one of my fav locations in the entire country. Beach is desolate and calming. House was well equipped and thoughtful. Location was off the beaten path, but not too far. Get away from the tourists and come here, you’ll be relaxed and pleased.

Wonderful place to stay! This house provided all of the amenities we needed for our family of six of various ages. We had a fantastic trip together to Iceland and the hosts were friendly, helpful and responsive to our questions.

We had a very nice vacation thanks in part to this beautiful accommodation. It is a little remote from Akureyri; which can also be seen clearly on the map. But with a rental car you can be in the city center within 10 minutes and you can go anywhere. We would definitely recommend this nice place to others!

Excellent place that wasn’t too far from Selfoss which has some nice restaurants. The house was perfect and we felt right at home there

Gigja was extremely welcoming and helpful in showing us around the house and giving us local recommendations. Her house is an amazing place for kids! We had 3 kids under 5 who loved the trampoline, the 2 enclosed outdoor spaces and playhouse, and the toys and spacious interior. The place is immaculately clean and full of beautiful plants! There is a walking path that goes right by the house and runs along a stream and goes to 2 parks that we frequented. All things in Reykjavik were under 10 minutes by car. We highly recommend this house and the hosts.

This was the best place we have ever stayed as a family. Sigurdurs place is beautiful with the most stunning view. The house is spacious and very warm and cosy. It is absolute heaven, the perfect escape to the countryside with a chance of seeing the northern lights over the lake. I would definitely recommend Sigurdur’s place to everyone. Thank you so much for letting us spend time in your home.

Very comfortable house, well equipped and located in a peaceful location. We had a great time. The views are superb, the jacuzzi very pleasant. Rooms are spacious and the house has all the amenities available.

AMAZING!!! Runar’s place was even better than we could have imagined. The Northern Lights were extremely visible to the naked eye 3 of the 4 nights we stayed. The back deck was lovely to watch Aurora dance in the sky. The furniture and bed (we only used 1 of the 4) were extremely clean and comfortable! To our surprise, the bathroom floor was heated, which was a lovely touch! We absolutely loved our stay here. It was extremely peaceful and secluded but also so close to town. We have already started talking coming back to Iceland and staying here again. It is the perfect home in the perfect location on the Golden Circle.

Very confortable house, perfectly situated to visit the numerous interesting sites of the Snaefellsnes national park. Anarstapi is one of the beautiful site, you are at the heart of the peninsula and at the bottom of the Snaefelljokull. It is peaceful and isolated but not matter (best place for boreal aurora) ! The house is perfect, well equipped and the spa very attractive ! Our best place in Iceland !
