Little Gem in Selfoss
Location was perfect for our stay in Iceland. We had a car and used Selfoss as our base for the south road and golden circle. The property is in a quiet neighborhood near restaurants and grocery stores. The kitchen is well stocked. I would definitely stay here again.

Great home base for Southern Iceland visit
The house is in a very quiet neighborhood but is very close to good shopping and restaurants. Selfoss is much larger than we had anticipated and it was a great locatuon to use as a base for severalnday trips atound the area. The house was great. Excellent kitchen. Amazing huge bathtub with unlimited hot spring water. My wife and her sister basically lived in the tub when we got back from our day trips. We spent 4 great days in the area. End of winter so some light snow one day and rain or clear others. We missed the northen lights due to wether, but the scenery and waterfall hikes and geysers and other hikes were awesome. Easy access to the house. We would definitely stay here again. Only issue was we didn't hear anything about getting into the house until just a week before our trip. Made us nervous, but then communication after that with host was great.

Excellent stay in Selfoss
Just returned from 4 night stay in Selfoss. We were very impressed by the cleanliness, cosyness and exceptionally well equipped house. The situation of the property was really good to be able to venture to all different parts of Iceland. Situated in a lovely quiet street with easy access to shops. I would recommend this property to anyone wishing stay in the Selfoss area. A big thank you for helping to make our holiday in Iceland unforgettable.

We were very pleased with the how the property was appointed and supplied and the cleanliness. Selfoss was a great base for visiting attractions in South Iceland. The property owners were very prompt in answering our questions on placed to go and things to do and had great recommendations.

Selfoss Seclusion!
We rented this house after 4 days in Reykjavik and many tours. It provided some much needed privacy and serenity. We cooked dinners & ate in the food hall in town. The location was fabulous for a day trip to Vik & Black Sand Beaches (Game of Thrones fans, this is a must!). The Owners were SUPER kind and responsive while we stayed. No question was silly. The beds were all very comfortable as was the sofa in main living room. Plenty of space for a family of 5 (we were only 2 with an adult son). Grocery store down the street, mini mart even closer and 3 minute drive onto the main street. We’d absolutely stay here again

Lovely little house in a neighborhood. Many places to stay feel more like hotels, but this place definitely felt like someone's house in a residential neighborhood. Selfoss isn't a big town, so it's just a couple blocks to get to the center of town and all the retail and restaurants. Selfoss also is a nice location to get to lots of different places (Golden Circle, Vestmannaeyjar, Lava Tunnel, etc.), so it was a great home base for a couple days.
