Holiday houses in Akraneskaupstaður

Comfortable stay, would book again!

What an absolutely wonderful Airbnb experience. The apartment was beautiful and super-clean, and the view was stunning! We loved looking out the window at the ocean in the evenings, and we took a lovely walk along the seafront one morning. We took day trips to the Golden Circle and the Snaefellsnes peninsula, and we were an easy drive from Reykjavik. Best of all, Salvor Lilja and her husband were amazing hosts. We enjoyed a sunset soak in the hot tub, and they very kindly provided a selection of beverages and Icelandic treats. They also very thoughtfully left the apartment stocked with amenities like coffee, tea, milk, beer, wine and chocolates. We would highly recommend to anyone!

Have been staying in Airbnbs since 2017 and this had to be the most gorgeous view and stunning Airbnb. Would stay again!

It was a beautiful place and location. The weather wasn’t great the week we stayed but it would be a great to see northern lights. We had one clear night! It’s off the beaten path but worth it.

Beautiful home in an incredible location. The view on the lake and the mountain is just perfect for a moment of respite. Having the horses as neighbours, the Hvammsvik Hot Springs less than 10min away, easy access to Golden Circle and even 2h away from Snaesfellsjokull Peninsula, it is just the perfect location. House is pristine, extremely well equipped with highest standard furnitures. Margaret is an amazing host, very fast to answer any request. We even had the opportunity to see the Northern Lights directly from the deck. Very highly recommended

This home was absolutely perfect! We wanted something that was away from the hustle bustle of life but driveable to local sites. We were able to do days trips to amazing locations but then rest in the home with a wonderful hot tub with stellar views. We were even able to see the auroras while steaming in the hot tub! The hosts were beyond helpful and we can't thank them enough for communicating so well and for being so willing to help. We were offered super early check-in due to our early flight. And thanks to them we were able to change our reservations on the spot as we made a huge mistake on our end!

Checkin was a breeze and Alfa was extremely helpful throughout our entire stay. Truly a beautiful home with everything you need, especially if you’re traveling with kids. Views from the home are absolutely stunning and the interior is very warm and welcoming. My family and I enjoyed our stay and would absolutely love to visit again.

The time at Brynja’s accommodation was absolutely wonderful! The location, the view – it was perfect for us :) The cabin is clean and equipped with all the essentials. A special highlight was, of course, the hot tub, where we could enjoy the breathtaking view in the evenings. We really loved our evening walks on the nearby beach. From there, we were even able to admire the Northern Lights! We have fallen head over heels in love with Iceland and hope to return one day! We highly recommend the accommodation and are already looking forward to a reunion. Thank you, Brynja <3

We had a great time at the cabin! Actually, one of the highlights was our host Ylfa, who was always very helpful, provided a lot of very detailed information up front and reacted very quickly to all remaining questions we had - the communication was really a pleasure to us and on a level I have not experienced on Airbnb before. About the cabin: Our kids (3 and 6 years old) very much liked what they referred to as "the play cave", which is the upstairs sleeping loft. The kitchen is well equipped with all necessary things needed, far exceeding what would be minimal kitchen setup. Another highlight to us was the hot tub, which we used almost every day (despite wind and a bit of rain outside). The open view towards the west is very suitable to search for Northern Lights in the dark or just watch the stars. We mainly used the cabin as our homebase to different day tours around in western Iceland. In total, we really had a great time!
