"We stayed during the winter (Mid Feb) and the house was perfect. The views from the property are breathtaking and we had a magical experience watching the northern lights from the hot tub every evening. Waking up to the view from the master bed overlooking the fjord was spectacular. It feels remote and peaceful, but still close enough to Akureyri for supplies, restaurants and the ski hill. It was the perfect base for exploring the northern fjords and mountains, with good hikes, natural hot springs, lava fields, mud pools and fumaroles within an hours drive. The hosts were very accommodating and communicative at all times. The only consideration is the kitchen. It is very well equipped and adequate, but has limited storage and bench space so cooking for a larger group may be a little challenging. I would have no hesitation in booking again for another Iceland adventure"

"This property is beautiful. The pictures don’t do it justice. The view alone is amazing!"

"We loved every minute spent here. We ventured out most days, but "

"Amazing location with beautiful views and incredibly friendly hosts. "

"Beautiful hotel, location, and room! Northern lights seen during my stay, even with the high wind warnings! Restaurants close by (although there is dining on site). Would certainly stay here again!"

"Amazing cabin, was able to see the northern lights and an artic fox. Would stay again"

"House was clean and very spacious. Plenty of heat and hot water. Being right on the water was wonderful. We used the hot tub almost every night. Our first night there, a pod of whales swam by while we were in the hot tub. Grenivik is a lovely location, a quiet town about half an hour from the city and all its amenities. It was a great launching point for all the local attractions. The hosts were super helpful. We left an important bag behind with laptop, passports, medication, etc. and they mailed it back to the States for us. "

"This place is terrific - comfortable, clean, convenient. Cannot say enough about our host, Freyja, - friendly, responsive almost immediately, knowledgeable - and a great cook! Thanks for everything!"

"The property was so amazing. The views and surroundings were way above what we expected. The apt was insanely clean and well maintained. We felt at home here and didn't want to leave. "
