Glass House with Private River & 360° Views

This was hands down our favorite place we stayed in Iceland. We were there at the beginning of our trip, and measured everything else up against this stay. The hosts, Daniel and Samantha were really responsive to all of our questions (including how to turn on the heaters) and we got a good sense of their interests from the decor, which was fun. The kitchen was well stocked for cooking, and the views out the window were indescribably beautiful. Out of one window, the sea. Out of another, mountains, a little river and a waterfall. Out the back, volcano and glacier. I would come back to Iceland just to stay here again. :) We decided to just walk from the house to do the Arnarstapi to Hellnar hike along the sea instead of dealing with the car, and that worked out well. A few basic but cute restaurants just 2 minutes away were helpful for dinner as well, all within sight of Snaefellsnes' own guardian troll statue.

Incredible location and views. Spacious and very comfortable Definitely worth booking!

It was a bit stuffy in there so had to open up doors which allowed flies to come in

You cannot beat the location of this home and the views are incredible. The village has beautiful hikes that you can do, and the property is just a short walk to the cliffs overlooking the beach. The beds are very comfortable, and the kitchen is well supplied if you want to cook. We sure hated to leave this house and would Iove to come back and stay here again.

The views are spectacular. Well stocked kitchen. 2 min walk to the views of the coast line.

They could use a few deck chairs.

An incredible find! The house is beautiful inside and set in a stunning location—glacier on one side, the sea on the other. Perfect location for seeing the peninsula. Would be thrilled to stay there again.

Beautiful location, very cool property and house. Convenient to national park and amazing outdoor activities.

Bedrooms and bathrooms are “efficient” with fantastic and lovely common living spaces.

Absolutely fantastic views and a really lovely house with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Hosts were also responsive and helpful.

Location. Facilities. Very homely.

Stunning location and views, clean and comfortable. Lovely deck to watch the lights from and spacious living area.

A beautiful cabin and a lovely little village.

I wish I had known that the restaurants all close early at night; we went out about 6:00 pm to find food and there was none.
