    Positive, We spent 6 nights in the Beautiful Apartment, and it was fantastic. The place is sparkling clean and cozy, with lovely views. Every morning, we enjoyed an amazing breakfast with fresh bread, yogurt parfaits, and more. Áslaug was accommodating. 🌟

    homemade breakfast
    noise disturbance
    cramped bathroom

    Exceptional homemade breakfast delivered to your room.

    I was disappointed by the noise from neighboring rooms. It felt like the walls were too thin, making it hard to relax at night. The bathroom was cramped, which made it difficult to get ready comfortably, especially with inconsistent shower pressure that detracted from my stay.

    homemade breakfast
    serene views

    really good, really good, really good

    I had a wonderful stay in the Studio Apartment with Sea View! Every morning, Áslaug delivered an really good homemade breakfast right to my door, featuring local specialties and fresh bread that filled the room with good aromas. The picturesque views from my apartment provided a serene backdrop, where I could watch the sunset while enjoying the comfort of cozy blankets.

    comfortable apartment
    outstanding breakfast
    beautiful views
    limited bathroom

    Staying at Eyvindarholt Guesthouse felt like a breath of fresh air. The studio apartment had a clean and modern design, providing us with a cozy atmosphere that made it easy to relax after long days of exploring. Breakfast was simply outstanding! Every morning, a variety of Icelandic selections—fresh bread, yogurt, and delicious cakes—were delivered right to our door. It was so plentiful that we even had leftovers for lunch. The amazing host, Áslaug, always inquired about our breakfast timing to fit our plans perfectly. The location is beautiful, with serene views that added to the tranquility of our stay. A few minor drawbacks included the limited space in the bathroom, which felt a bit cramped at times. Also, the shower pressure was inconsistent, making it less than ideal. However, these were minor issues compared to the overall experience. I can't recommend this place enough for a peaceful retreat near Reykjavik!

    Staying in the Deluxe Apartment was a lovely experience! It was spacious, clean, and well-equipped with a kitchenette. The highlight was Áslaug's amazing breakfast each morning, featuring fresh bread, cakes, and fruits that were generously portioned. The location offered beautiful views and a peaceful atmosphere, making it perfect for relaxation after a day of exploring the countryside.

    The temporary second bed setup was a bit noisy at times.

    cozy atmosphere
    spacious apartment
    delicious breakfast
    limited activities

    The place is super cozy with a lovely atmosphere! Our kids loved watching the geese nearby, and we enjoyed Áslaug's amazing breakfasts every morning. The spacious Deluxe Apartment was perfect for our family, and it felt like a home away from home.

    My kids wished there were more fun activities on-site.

    bird watching
    cramped bathroom

    Our group had an amazing stay. The breakfast was plentiful, featuring delicious pastries and fresh local ingredients. The host was incredibly helpful and even packed our breakfast for our early departure. We enjoyed bird watching and took a quick trip to the city, just 15 minutes away.

    The bathroom was a bit cramped, which made getting ready a little challenging at times.

    stunning views
    generous breakfast
    cramped bathroom
    inconsistent shower pressure
    tight parking spots

    The apartment was beautifully decorated and offered stunning views, providing a peaceful retreat after day trips. Breakfast was a highlight, featuring generous servings of fresh bread and a variety of local ingredients. However, the bathroom felt cramped, and the shower pressure was inconsistent, which sometimes made it frustrating to use. Parking was available but a few spots felt tight, so maneuvering could be a bit tricky.

    homemade bread

    It was just a great match for a speedy visit in Alftanes with good value for money. The breakfast had delicious homemade bread that was a real treat. Try to get an upper floor if you can for better views.

    delectable breakfast
    garden area
    noisy fridge

    The studio apartment was super cozy and perfectly equipped with fresh bread and fruit for breakfast every morning. I loved relaxing in the spacious garden area and enjoyed the sun terrace too. The only slight downside was the fridge noise, but I still had a fantastic time! 🌞
