Wonderful apartment and location

Margret was a wonderful host. Her apartment very nicely decorated and had all the amenities that made our visit to Iceland even more delightful. Communication was flawless. She was kind enough to have Sindri (who was very friendly and knowledgable) meet us at 7:00 am on a Sunday, which we were extremely grateful for after an overnight flight! Great location and beautiful views.

A seismic 60 celebration

Five ladies, each celebrating 60 this year, and 40+ years of friendship together, ventured to Iceland in the hopes of experiencing an adventure of seismic proportions...and that is exactly what happened. Although no tremors were felt, and the volcano never erupted, we had a blast. Apartment was centrally located and very comfortable...and the view from the common room was amazing. If we ever return, we wouldn't hesitate to again rent this location. Iceland is beautiful and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Ocean view and walking distance to everything

An absolute gem in city center. Ocean view and a balcony. Easy walk to market, shops, & restaurants. Also, if you’re doing tours, it’s only 5 minutes to the bus stop. The kitchen is very well equipped with nice dishes and glasses, drip coffee maker, & toaster. There’s also a grill on the balcony if you’re so inclined. I would stay here again.

Magical! Perfect!

From the moment we were greeted for checkin to the day we left, our stay was wonderful. Margret is an amazing host. The location was ideal for walking to shops, sites and food in downtown Reykjavik. It’s not on the main road, which is great for quiet, but it’s so close to the fun! Best of both worlds. The view from the living room is absolutely gorgeous! And we saw the Aurora right outside that window the first night! We ran down to the water’s edge and to lo the Sun Voyager sculpture to get up close :) Margret is very accommodating-sent us a list of ways to watch the World Cup for the kids, and she allowed us a bit of extra time to leave due to one of our family members’ illness. The only thing I can say is that the satellite didn’t work, but upon asking, Margret explained that. We didn’t miss out, though. If you really need to watch tv, which we really didn’t, we had other options. I’ve never seen such a clean place! Easy in and out, and having parking under the building is so key! I hope we get to come back in the warmer months. We would stay here again in a heartbeat.

Fantastic Location in Reykjavik

Wow - just loved our week stay at this apartment centrally located near the harbor center of Reykjavik. The views of the bay were wonderful, and the easy access to the main shopping streets of Reykjavik so nice. We loved the apartment''s features, great view from the living room, and the kitchen and dining spaces were great. The configuration of the apartment is great for two couples sharing the space as the bedrooms are on the outer sides of the apartment with the bathrooms back to back - gives very good privacy . Was also wonderful to have an in garage parking space for our car rental. The owner was so responsive to all our many questions, and responded quickly. We would happily stay here again - one of the best VRBO rentals we have ever stayed at.

Absolutely exceptional apartment, period!! We arrived from the US and were promptly greeted. The apartment is fabulous- spacious, impeccably clean, great location and more. We quickly realized how valuable on-site, inside parking was in Reykjavik. As we were a family traveling together with a full itinerary, the second bathroom was crucial. Margret was incredibly (above and beyond) helpful in suggesting trips, spots to visit and places to eat. We will absolutely go back to Iceland again and will definitely look to stay in this apartment when we do. I cannot rate the apartment and all of the conveniences that come with it high enough. The owner's willingness to go out of her way to help and offer trip advice is invaluable. Thanks a ton for the help and for a great stay!!!

Beautiful brand new condominium in a great location

This is a beautiful, exceptionally well maintained property in a superb location in Reykjavik. The view is outstanding, (it says harbor but more like mountains across the bay). Very lovely to wake up and see view from basically floor to ceiling windows. The condo is up to date with great amenities such as parking, (a big plus as parking in Reykjavik is not easy), microwave, dishwasher, and plenty of serviceware & cookware. The wifi worked great and there is both elevator and stairwell for easy access. Margret & Sindri were wonderful hosts. We had a car issue and Sindri was very accommodating when he could meet us keys and show us the condo. Sindri also gave great recommendations for eating, grocery shopping & pools. The location is excellent with fantastic cute shopping, galleries, and excellent restaurants & gourmet food shops. The condo has ample storage, (way more than any 1-2 week traveler could ever use). The 2 bedrooms are furnished with eco cotton flannel sheets. Pillows were a little smaller than we are accustomed to, but bedding was very warm. Be sure to ask Sindri how to work the clothing washer/dryer. It was not like usual American washer/dryer and took a few tries to get it to dry, (but eventually we figured it out). The condo is quite spacious. It was very nice to have the space after traveling in the country for a week in smaller hotels. Worth the price. Just note - there is a hefty tax on all Icelandic hotels etc. In fact, taxes on all goods and sundries were higher than we anticipated.... as well as food. It was great to go food shopping and prepare our own food. It saved a lot of money from eating out. I would stay here again for sure!

This apartment is as beautiful as depicted in the photos. We enjoyed the view daily as the light changed on the mountains. Margret and Sindri were very helpful and gracious. The apartment is equipped with everything we could need. Conveniently located to city points of interest and public transportation, yet very quiet. We loved our stay and would love to visit again!

Einfach traumhaft schön, super ausgestattet und ein toller Meerblick!

Hallo an alle, die sich für einen Island-Aufenthalt interessieren, ich war mit meiner Mutter und meinem Ehemann für 9 Tage gerade erst dort und kann das tolle Appartement in Nähe des Zentrums und trotzdem direkt am Meer nur wärmstens empfehlen. Es ist gemütlich und sauber und mangelt an nichts (Herd, Mikrowelle, Essbereich, 2 Sofas/Wohnbereiche, Geschirr und Zubehör, sowie Grundlagendes (Salz, Pfeffer,...) sind vorhanden. Auch Sitzgelegenheiten direkt am Fenster mit Meerblick, 2 Schlafzimmer, 2 Bäder mit Handtüchern und Fön, eines mit Duschwanne, eines mit ebenerdiger Dusche). Die Vermieterin antwortet sofort auf Fragen und ist sehr nett. Wir wurden auch dort nett empfangen. Evtl. mitgeführte Mietwagen haben einen eigenen Stellplatz in der Tiefgarage unter dem Gesamtkomplex, von wo man bequem und trocken direkt ins Appartment kommt. Balkon mit Grilll ist auch vorhanden. Ein wirklich unvergesslich schöner Urlaub!

Beautiful Apartment with great location and great view.

Very accommodating. We were driving in from Vik and did not get to the apartment until midnight. They met us at midnight and gave us an overview of the area, where everything was in the apartment and how to use the appliances. Great location. Easy to walk to shops and restaurants and to the harbor for our puffin tour. Also fantastic view. The apartment was very modern and clean. We really enjoyed our stay.

Cute apartment, gorgeous view, convenient location

First: Upon the initial booking and arrival, Margret was super responsive and helpful with everything including allowing us to check in early on a holiday! Her representative met us at the apartment and thoroughly explained everything. Apartment: exactly as pictured and described. I never found extra blankets/sheets for the sleeper sofa but we didn’t end up using it so it wasn’t a big deal. Plenty of dishes and towels. The apartment is straight out of an IKEA showroom (cute, well proportioned, and minimalistic). The apartment was SPOTLESS and the view was breathtaking. Also, there was no sounds anywhere. Either the construction of this building is incredible or the neighbors are non-existent because we never heard or saw another resident throughout our entire 5 night stay. Wi-Fi only allowed 2 devices at a time but we had a mobile hotspot so it wasn’t a problem. Location: we were able to walk everywhere in Reykjavik from the apartment. It’s not city center but nothing we went to was more than a 15 minute walk. Being on the water and having such a lovely view made the apartment feel even bigger. Things to consider via my personal likes/dislikes (nothing worthy of less than 5 stars though): I couldn’t find any extra pillows or blankets which would have been amazing. Everyone likes different firmness of pillows so being stuck with just 4 pillows for 4 people was kinda rough when they were super soft and feathery. No top sheets or face cloths either (this may be an American thing) but know you’ll be washing your face and body with a big hand towel. Mattresses are FIRM- ladies, if you have implants and are a side/stomach sleeper note that there is not extra pillows for you and you’ll be on your back or hurting ;) Overall: we would definitely recommend staying here. Our preferences as a family were just that, preferences but the booking process, check out process, and our overall stay were delightful. Staying here with 2 kids aged 10 & 11 and my husband we never felt crowded or cramped. The building was secure and quiet and felt very safe. The ease of getting to shopping, restaurants, museums, etc was PERFECT. Thanks for a wonderful trip to Iceland

Outstanding apartment, spotlessly clean!

We stayed 4 nights at the apartment. The photos are accurate. The place is extremely clean and has everything to make your stay comfortable including dish washing liquid, paper towels, even extra toilet paper! It is a very safe/secure building and we felt safe returning home at 1:30 am from a northern lights tour. The views from the living room and den are lovely. The Main Street is an easy 3 block walk and the bus stop #7 for most tour pickups is only a few blocks away; it took us less than 5 minutes to walk there. Very convenient. We've stayed in other vacation rentals in Europe but feel this apartment was by far the cleanist and quietest. Margret responded quickly to all our requests and was exceptionally accommodating to our request to check in early as our flight from the US arrived early in the morning.

Great like new condo in excellent location!

We just returned from a weeks stay at this very nice high end condo in Reykjavik. Walking distance to great shops and restaraunts. The unit was well equipped for the four of us and has all the amenities we needed. Since we rented a car the underground parking spot was perfect since the outside temps were quite cold during our stay. The booking and reservation process with Margret was great in advance of our stay. Sindri who met us at the condo the morning we arrived explained everything to us very well and we really appreciated getting into the condo the morning we arrived early from the states. This is a huge plus for anyone coming from the states on a early morning flight. Things we really liked about the unit: - location - clean and new - fully equipped kitchen - washer dryer combo - underground parking - water view - security of the building - confort and strorage of the rooms and living area We would recommend this condo for anyone staying in the area! You won't be dissapinted.
