Kid-friendly holiday rentals in Seltjarnarnes

Beautiful home! Spacious and clean, perfect for my group of 5. The plentiful decor was tasteful and living room is cozy with large couch. Location was quiet and private, conveniently near a Bonus, and close to major highways. The space is well stocked: Whether you need laundry related products, extra pasta sauce, quality coffee machine, etc you can find it. Would highly recommend for a cozy stay, truly like a home away from home.

A perfect place for our family of three. Removed enough from Reykavik but a great home base for all of our adventures in the area. The house and grounds are beautiful and relaxing. The host family is so nice and great for recommendations. Finding the house, parking, checking in/out was all very easy. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Tara’s home was a great find. It’s close to the city center (15ish minute drive) in a quiet residential area. Kitchen is fully equipped to cook full meals, grill outside, grocery store 2 minutes away. Book, games and toys for the kids including soccer and basketballs. Everything we could need was available. She was quick to respond to questions and was kind enough to let us check in early after our red eye flight. Highly recommend.

We loved our stay at this house! Spent two nights in Reykjavik and this was a great spot to walk to everything. Neighborhood felt safe, we let our teens walk home at night by themselves. House was adorable, everything as described and very comfortable. Loved the character and charm of an older home! Bjorn was responsive and I would stay here again. Thanks!

Asta was so helpful with local recommendations, and her house was clean welcoming. We had everything we needed right at our fingertips. The sauna and hot tub were great for relaxing. The location was perfectly central for exploring the Reykjavik peninsula.

The house was spacious, clean , tidy and we felt at home. All amenities and description were the same as in the advertisement in air B&B. Nice neighbourhood and easy to walk to the supermarket although we had a car. Definitely recommend to others Kjartan was a great host before and during our stay . Iceland is a lovely country.

Nice house in in good area, a lot of space and light. Many games and toys for kids! 10 min by walk to the bus terminal.

Excellent location and plenty of bedrooms :-) Walkable to all the major downtown areas. However, you should be aware that the stairs between the upper floor and the lower floor are very steep, and there is no handrail for the lower section. If you have mobility concerns on stairs, exercise caution, since the only bathroom is downstairs, and the kitchen and living areas are upstairs. We managed to make it work, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay!

It was a great stay. Hildur is a top hostess and the apartment is a bit neat and clean. There was coffee and something tasty ready, very thoughtful. Responded quickly and we were able to ask anything. Top experience, we were 5 people (3 kids).

A beautiful apartment that looks just like the photos! Comfy beds, spacious living room, well-stocked and modern kitchen. And super close to the downtown, many parks, and coastline. We really enjoyed our stay here!

This flat is very comfortable (the Icelandic know how to insulate and keep warm - which we gratefully noted as we live in a draughty Victorian house!) and very well fitted and maintained. Pretty much perfect. Lloyd and Raggi were welcoming and helpful and had left a few treats in the fridge which was nice :) They left us to ourselves but were quickly responsive when we had a query. They live in the flat below and met us on arrival there which was helpful. The area is residential and quiet but very close to the central exciting bits of Reykjavik - just five mins walk. Five mins in the other direction you can get to the path around the coast and a black sand beach. So, perfect for us really as we were there for Airwaves. They told us of a local pool which we went to everyday - it was great. There's a local bakery and cafe near the pool, but there's all the stuff in town in the other direction too. Easy access to airport - use Flybus stop 1 at City Hall Much recommended.

Nice, spacious and comfy apartment, good location. We liked the quirkyness and the style as there are many unusual paintings and lots of plants inside. The kitchen is very well equipped and is perfect for cooking. Eilífur was kind to wait for us to show us around the place even though our flight got delayed. City centre is 10-15 min walk, there are three big supermarkets 10 mins walk from the house. We would love to come back one day.

Very nice stay. The house was very well equiped in a nice and calm neighbourhood and communication with the owner was good. We felt at home. Thank you!

We feel very comfortable. Everything was as described and Einar was a wonderful host.

I stayed the night before going to the airport. The house was really big, tidy, and nice, so it was a shame that I had to leave early in the morning. There were 2 bathrooms, 3 rooms, 2 double beds, and 2 single beds. The sofa in the living room was really big and comfortable, so it was nice to watch the big TV together. It was equipped with all the kitchen utensils, but there were only four forks. Besides, it was nice to have welcome snacks and coffee. I think it took about 50 minutes from downtown Reykjavik. There were no shops within walking distance, but it seemed to be about 10 minutes by car.

Viktor was a great host! Appreciated his flexibility with check-in because we arrived late local time. The apartment has everything we needed and Viktor was responsive when I had questions. There was also a pool nearby which made for a great after-dinner activity!

Super communicative! Gave us an early check in as our flight had arrived earlier than intended- was always fast with response! He even gave recommendations when asked and made sure we had everything we needed during our stay! Super nice and highly recommend- I’d stay again if I came back :)

We felt very comfortable. The accommodation is simply a dream, chic and modernly furnished, everything you need is there. It was clean and we felt right at home. The view is of course a highlight, which we enjoyed every morning at breakfast. We would come back:)

Hronn and her husband were fantastic. After a red eye flight, we were hoping to check in early. After reaching out, Hronn said we could check in at 10:15am! This was AMAZING! We actually happened to meet Hronn and her husband at the door and they were lovely people. Her husband even pointed out some things with the door to the parking garage. 10/10 would stay here again.

Styrmir’s house was beautiful and was everything we needed on our trip. It was conveniently located by several grocery stores, not to mention being very close to the city center. It also had very easy access to the major highways out of Reykjavik, making day trips extremely easy. Styrmir was one of the most helpful and communicative hosts. He was a font of incredibly helpful information and continuously checked in to see how we were doing. The cats in the house were one of the best parts. They were super cute, extremely friendly, and made the stay that much more enjoyable. We would absolutely recommend this to anyone and would definitely stay here again!

We enjoyed our stay immensely! We loved the location — it was quiet, but still really close to everything — and the view of the water was beautiful !! The space itself was lovely - clean, open and airy, and had all the basic things we needed. Also— for the parents traveling with young kids— we used the crib, high chair, and was perfect for small kids. Would stay here again!

My family and I stayed here for Christmas and New Years! The location was perfect for going in and out of town to look for the northern lights and still close to the city center for shopping! Hradnildur also gave us a list of recommendations which helped us find the hidden gems!

Hurnd and Davio’s place had a modern Scandinavian flair and it came with a well equipped open kitchen which connects to a dining room where 6-8 people can dine comfortably. The living room is so cozy as well and there were unblocked view for sunrise and sunset everyday, we really enjoyed our time experiencing Icelandic nature and there are also some outdoor seatings to get some fresh air. There were the two of us staying this time and the main purpose was for work. As we had some free time we did make use of the #14 bus which is just 2 mins walk from the apartment and runs to the city center and big church. The grocery is also just 15 mins walk away. Hrund even left us a personal message and she ensured our stay was hassle free with explanation of how the trash is sorted. The toilet was really nicely designed too and you can always count on the geothermal water coming out from the tap for a nice hot shower. We would definitely stay with Hrund and Davio again in the future!

Awesome on both of our visits! Highly recommend, Harpa is a wonderful host and her home is awesome!
