Holiday houses in Akraneskaupstaður

Visiting Iceland for the third time, we wanted a base to explore the Snaesfellness Peninsula and the Silver Circle. This is a lovely, large, clean family home in a quiet street and perfect for what we needed. Lots of food and shopping choices nearby. Thank you Gudgeir.

I spent 5 nights in the apartment related to work near Akranes - my most important criteria is that it is quiet and peaceful in the neighbourhood. The apartment is basically at the end of a dead-end street. No traffic whatsoever. Great view towards the ocean. The host was responsive and dealt with one minor issue promptly. The apartment is functional, everything was working fine (laundry machine, Netflix on the TV and WiFi) - I can recommend staying here for your trip to Iceland.

Our stay was in Asbjorn’s house amazing! After driving around Iceland we wanted to relax for couple days before the long flight, The town location was very convenient for us, so we decided to stay in Akranes instead of Reykjavik. Asbjorn’s home was just what we needed. Beautiful neighborhood, walkable distance to local attractions and grocery stores. The house itself is full of light and nicely designed, shiny clean, well equipped, with comfortable beds. Beautiful kitchen motivates you to cook something delicious, there is also outside grill that we happily used to cook fresh burgers that we bought in the local farm. Definitely would stay there again in the future!

If you are going to Iceland, I can not say enough about this space. I got lost the first night, which was my fault and I forgot where I put the code to the lock box. The space was gorgeous, I saw the northern lights from the outside deck, we were on the water, the sunsets were stunning. You could have fit 4 easily, but if you have children, the couches where very comfortable so you could fit more. You had every amenity you could need (well, I could need) I could go on and on, but suffice it to say, it was perfect for us, and the hosts were great. Thank you for a wonderful lodging for our stay.

Very nice lodge and well equiped, i recommand, thank you very much !

Amazing cozy and comfortable stay

Thank you to the brilliant hosts for making our stay so enjoyable. Perfect location beside the sea, and within 5 minutes drive of the supermarket and restaurants in Akranes. Under an hour into the city centre and just over an hour to the airport. The ideal base. Salvor and Bjorn were so kind and welcoming. The apartment looks out at the sea, and was immaculately prepared. Full of personal touches and all essentials. The hot tub was a godsend each night, and we got the northern lights on our last night. What an end to a great stay. Fully recommend staying here. If it was a hotel it would be a 5 star. Thank you again to our lovely hosts.

Una has a great apartment where the family otherwise lives. The whole apartment is modern. The beds / mattresses are very good and the kitchen is equipped with everything you need. Not to forget the laundry room with washing machine and dryer. Una and her husband are quickly available in case of problems. Important to know that it can take a long time for hot water to come in the morning, but it comes :-) In the vicinity is a bakery (Kallabakkri), within walking distance. Good food can be enjoyed at noon or in the evening at "Galito". Una has prepared a small folder with information about Akranes. In sunshine, please drive to beach. All around a great apartment.
