Family-friendly vacation rentals in Vik

The host was very polite and responsive. The location was amazing. We found everything we expected and had a great time in the cottage.

Very special stay for us as it was our first time seeing the northern lights. Everything is as described in the listing. Would recommend.

Stinas cottage was exactly as advertised. Not far from town but a nice quiet secluded place to see the northern lights. Our host was super helpful and friendly. Great jumping off point for the southern coast

I booked Emma and Oskars place for clients of mine, they were very happy, communication was great, I can well recommend.

It was incredible to have so much space on our trip. The kitchen was well appointed and we were able to cook our own meals without issue. The hot tub was a great bonus! My only gripes were the tight bathroom, non functioning TV, and no ice cube tray (minor, I know). Overall would highly recommend!

“The best air b&b we have stayed in”. The guesthouse we stayed in was perfect. The place is extremely clean and well thought out, with everything you need for a relaxing stay. The personalised note inside upon check in was such a lovely touch. The hot tub is easy to use and the geothermal water is welcome after a long day of exploring Iceland. The views from the cabin are also breathtaking. Sabine is a great and responsive host, providing really detailed instructions before check in and getting back to queries quickly. We also both really enjoyed our walking tour with her wonderful horses today. Could not recommend this place enough, as my boyfriend said while staying there “I think this is the best air b&b we have ever stayed in”…I couldn’t agree more!!

An amazing peaceful retreat, yet close enough for all the sightseeing we wanted to do.. dark skies provided an amazing opportunity to see the Northern lights!

The barn house was beautifully built and decorated with spectacular views. The skylight windows were perfect for watching for the northern lights. The kitchen had all the basics and some extras like a nespresso machine and pods. We enjoyed cooking there and using the hot tub. The washer and dryer were super helpful. It was a great launching place for the Golden Circle. Stokkseyri is a cute little town with a great local pool. The turf house across the street was fun to explore as was the beach on the other side of the turf wall. It is very near Bakkahestar for highly recommended Icelandic horse rides with a local couple on the beach in Eyrarbakki. Nearby Selfoss has anything you need including an amazing fish market Fiskbud Suderlands for great prices on fresh caught local fish. Kristinn was very responsive and we loved our stay!

Amazing little cottage, that we really enjoyed to stay in for 6 days. Saw amazing northern light and had peace and quiet just like We wanted. Close to all the stuff We value and love about Iceland: Golden Circle, horses, nature and the sea 😍😍😍 Friða ís always responsive in case of questions and that was amazing ❤️❤️

Very nice farm house with sunset view, we had a good time!

Centrally located between Selfoss and Eyrarbakki. Good kitchen supplies. Would love to stay again sometime. Communicate with the owner prior to your visit so they can adjust the in floor heating to your liking. Selfoss has a nice public pool. Good for a hot soak. 😁 If you ride, get a lesson with on one of their Icelandic horses. So different than the "tail-to-tail" rides of tourist tours. They can take expert riders to the beach. Keep in mind that their horses are EXTREMELY responsive

Our group had an incredible stay! The location was the perfect balance of being wonderfully remote, offering peace and quiet, yet still conveniently close to several attractions. We loved coming back from a day of exploring, knowing we could unwind in such a serene setting. The property had everything we needed, including a fully equipped laundry, which made our stay so much easier. One of the highlights was being able to see the Northern Lights right from the property—an absolutely magical experience! We couldn’t have asked for a better spot and would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a mix of adventure and relaxation.

Sofia’s cottage was so cozy and peaceful. It was probably my favorite place that I stayed at during my south coast trip. It was clean, had all the essentials, and actually seemed newer than what I saw from the pictures. I wasn’t lucky enough to see them during my stay(too cloudy), but the location of the cottage is ideal for the northern lights! I would definitely stay here again!

We loved our stay. The surrounding area is beautiful and the house was perfect for our family of 4. The location was ideal for exploring around many wonderful places in southern Iceland. Vilborg was responsive to any questions and we appreciate the opportunity to stay on her farm. Thank you!

This home looks tiny on the outside but was perfect on the inside for our group of 4. Louise was very friendly and welcoming. We enjoyed our stay. Our horse-loving young girls would add that our stay was way too short because they really did not want to leave!

Amazing, amazing and one more time - amazing!! The house is beautiful, you can feel that the owners are artsy, as architect I loved it. I lived in Iceland and wanted to show the country to my friends from the best side so I was looking for a special place to accommodate, close to the most important attractions. It was a perfect choice! I am just amazed by the house, hot tub and location. Sonja is the best host ever! She even did the groceries for us as we were landing very late during the New Year’s Eve when many supermarkets were closed. She was answering my questions, she helped us with the lighting around hot tub. The place is also amazing for Aurora chasing! We stayed there 3 nights and we saw northern lights 2 times from the garden. The house was just perfect for the group of 8, well equipped kitchen, bathrooms and bedrooms. Takk fyrir Sonja 💖

We stayed for two days at this cozy place. We enjoyed it a lot and felt good about the location, being reasonably close to Skógafoss and Kvernufoss. The horses are nice to look at, they walk near the house often. Steinn was also very friendly and helpful. Can recommend staying here!

Great cottage In a brilliant location to explore the south coast. As a family of 5 it was the perfect size. thank you

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.

Picturesque location by the river, secluded private cabins with amenities and glorious sunsets ! Ideal place to stay if you are doing the golden circle or would like to be centrally located to cover all major attractions – Gulfoss, Secret lagoon, Kerid Crater, Reykjadalur geothermal hot springs, and Seljalandsfoss / Skógafoss. Selfoss town is a short drive away and the route to Thingvellir Nation Park from the cabin is spectacular. The price is reasonable, by Icelandic standards. Hosts, Arni and family, were of great help throughout and are prompt in responding to messages. Highly recommended.

This house was perfect - great location for outdoor activities. Saw the Northern Lights from our windows. Right in the middle of the Golden Circle so great location for us. Very private, very quiet. Had everything we needed. I would recommend this location to anyone who prefers outdoor activities versus city life.

Had a fantastic stay at Gunnar's cottage. Everything we needed was at hand in the cottage. It was warm and cozy and and perfect for relaxing in the evening. We used the hot tub a couple of times and it was great. Managed to see the northern lights during our stay and it's a perfect location for seeing them and travelling around the Golden circle. Would definitely stay again.

Wonderful stay in this perfect little cabin. Small and cozy but for 2 people was just great, beautiful beautiful setting right outside of town. Perfect to see most amazing northern lights and went on excellent hikes.

Wonderful house in a perfect surrounding. Host ist accommodating and responds quick to questions. Perfect. We come again. :)
