Very good

I loved our stay here. The cottage was so cozy, had everything needed, including coffee in the morning, and instructions to get there were clear. The only heads up I’d offer others booking is that the cottage is not located directly in Fludir, which it appears on the Expedia booking page. This wasn’t an issue for us, but it worth being aware of.
Room is clean but only has 2 beds when I booked for 3 adults…leaving extra mattress and duvet on the floor… unacceptable… week internet connection and no TV when Expedia page showing 29’ TV…. What u paid is not what u get !!!
Anything this location lacks in luxury is made up for in the solitude and peacefulness of the property. The Private hot tub overlooking a horse and sheep pasture was a great addition. Visually isolated from the road and from all other nearby properties. About 10km outside of town gets you away from the other tourists. GPS did get us close, but the communications and directions provided by the host before our stay were clear and got us right to the property. This was our favorite stay in our 2 weeks in Iceland.

Ok stay
Not perfect but ok for the price. The views were pleasant and it was nice and cosy in the property.
The soft furnishings had marks on (possibly paint), the bin hadn’t been emptied, and there were marks on the back of the bathroom door, which would’ve cleaned off.
WiFi was not good at all.
The sat Nav location took us down a gravelled lane. But host was able to direct us on the phone.

Cabin that we stayed in was very rustic. Everything was small/short - which was not good for my 6'6 husband.
Very nice place to stay. Secluded and safe. Loved seeing the horses nearby and having our own space to relax. Would stay again!

Property was not the cleanest with some mold in the shower, dirty couch and bedding. The instructions on how to get to the location were fine although the directions provided when clicking on the link on Expedia were wrong. The property sent out the email with instructions over a month in advance so they were lost although they did not make the instructions clear on which cabin we were supposed to stay in nor provide the lockbox combination.
We had a TINY bit of trouble finding the appropriate cabin, since we arrived after dark. But aside from that, it was a great stay. It would be helpful to have information on each cabin easily available. When we booked on Orbitz, some o the photos from other cabins weighed into our decision, and it wasn't entirely easy to determine which was the one we were booking. Also, it would be great to have detailed info on what each cabin features (we were somewhat surprised to have no TV and weren't entirely certain which appliances/amenities would be in the kitchen). But it worked out well, and the place was quite nice.

Not worth it.
the owner was very responsive but the property itself was not satisfactory compared to what I paid for.
Weak wifi and internet data - you will lose connectivity in the next day. If you shower, the toilet will have wet floor.
It was quiet around us out in the nature but it wasn't clean and no heating.Even the towelheater in the restroom wasn't working.The bed was a big mess and very questionable if the linens were changed at all.
We woke up with bugs bite both of us.
Beautiful property surrounded by horses and mountains. Only a 9 minute drive to secret lagoon. So cosy and comfortable. Easy access and we watched the sunset was dreamy! Highly recommend.
Great location(relatively close to geysers), but overall it was too expensive for what it was, compared to every where else we stayed at in Iceland.
The sofa bed is uncomfortable. There’s no trash cans. It’s very challenging to find the place. The instruction on the email is poorly translated to English.
The owner was very nice and responsive on the phone.
The host was very nice and super responsive when we had issues with the wifi, although it was never fixed during our stay. Biggest frustration was the advertised blackout curtains which didn’t cover the whole windows. The one in front of the double glass doors were a good 18 inches off the ground letting in a lot of light in the middle of summer which made it hard for my kids to get to sleep. Bed was super soft! But they were 2 single beds pushed together so I ended up in the crack a few times! Fold out bed is quite small though.
