Guest Reviews
- Harry (10/5): - Het huisje is knus, comfortabel, compleet, alles schoon en het terras met tuinmeubilair is ook fijn. En een warm welkom met lekkere eigen gemaakte koekjes. Niets
- Ilse (10/5): Einfach nur Wohlfühlen - Alles, sehr freundliche Begrüßung. Sogar selbst gemachtes, sehr leckeres Gebäck stand bereit.
Haus ist mit viel Liebe eingerichtet. Haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Alles da was man braucht.
- Brunhilde (7/5): -
- Charunee (10/5): Lovely, clean, and cozy home with everything thoughtfully prepared. - Fully equipped kitchen and all essentials provided.
The host was so kind, with welcome cookies that made us feel instantly at home.
- Chiara (10/5): - Cassetta piccola, ma luminosa, pulita e accogliente.
Si trova tutto il necessario per il soggiorno.
Super gentili e disponibili i proprietari, che ci hanno accolto con biscotti fatti in casa, super apprezzati.
Si sentono gli uccellini.
Consigliato! A ridosso di altre case
- Theresa (10/5): -
- Chanaka (10/5): Best stay in Iceland! - This was the best stay we had in Iceland. The cosy log cabin nestled in the mountains was absolutely charming — clean, comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed. The host was incredibly welcoming, treating us to delicious homemade cakes and cookies. She thoughtfully alerted us to the appearance of the Northern Lights at night. This is a great place to view the northern lights with minimal light pollution. Can't recommend this enough.
- Kim (10/5): Gorgeous, cosy cottage. A real find - Gorgeous cottage amongst lovely gardens. Very clean and cosy cottage that had a great kitchen to cook in, complete with fridge, stove top and an airfare too. Lovely hosts who made us fresh biscuits and home made slice. Cereals supplied for breakfast. Clean bathroom and fluffy towels. Would definately stay again Nothing
- Boaz (10/5): Wonderful stay in a lovely cottage - Wonderful stay in a lovely cottage, spacious, very well equipped, very kind owner and a worm welcome with a plate or homemade delicious cookies.
One of our suitcases did not arrive upon landing in Iceland. The owner kindly agreed to receive it for us a day before we arrived to stay.
- Linda (10/5): Beautiful little house 🏠 - Beautiful accommodations, super clean and comfortable. Very friendly host and delicious treats made by his wife. Thank you Balder and Ragna 🇮🇸💕
- Carla (10/5): Amazing, super cottage - A must-stop during the ring road. The most beautiful cottage where we stayed: spacious, all amenities available, cookies offered, very kind owner. Too bad we only stayed one night, I hope to come back one day.
- Filippo (9/5): Ottimo soggiorno - Bella casetta in legno, arredata con cura e ben accessoriata. Ogni cosa è studiata per rendere il soggiorno piacevole. L'attenzione dei proprietari si vede anche negli spazi esterni come il portico e il giardino ben tenuto.
- Yasmin (10/5): -
- Xiaoyuan (10/5): -
- Manuel Javier (10/5): Hospitalidad excelente y alojamiento ideal - Todo fantástico. La cabaña de madera es ideal, muy completa y con muchas comodidades. Los dueños son super amables y atentos, lo que hace la estancia aún más agradable. Estuvimos dos noches fantásticas.
- Andrea (10/5): - Sehr freundliche Gastgeber, sehr schön gelegen und sehr gemütlich eingereichtet.
- Grammatopoulou (10/5): - Πολύ ωραίο και διακοσμημένο με πολύ γούστο μακάρι να είχαμε χρόνο να μείνουμε και άλλο να το απολαύσουμε
Μπράβο στους ιδιοκτήτες.
- Karine (10/5): Logement parfait! - Nous avons passé 4 nuits dans ce cottage et nous aurions aimé prolonger notre séjour. La localisation proche de Myvatn et de Husavik est parfaite.
Le logement est très agréable et confortable.
Large choix de thé, cafés et tisanes. Une assiette de délicieux cookies nous attendaient à l'arrivée.
Tout était parfait, nous recommandons vivement ce logement et nous aimerions y séjourner à nouveau si nous revenons un jour en Islande. Nous avons tout aimé, il ne manquait rien.
- jesica (10/5): Una casita en el paraiso - La casa está en un entorno precioso y tiene muchos detalles (air fried, nevera, tostadora, hervidor, cafe, te, cereales) y si encontrais pasteles de bienvenida no os lo comais, son buenisimos haha
Se descansa muy bien y está muy bien ubicada a los diferentes pueblos. Limpia y bien cuidada.
El anfitrion es muy amable.
- Davide (10/5): - Tutto. Miglior alloggio in Islanda Niente
- neviana (10/5): - Прекрасна малка къщичка оборудвана с всичко необходимо.Собственикът който ни посрещна беше много мил и ни почерпи с домашно приготвени сладкиши.Близо е до езерото Миватн и е подходящо за екскурзии до близките забележителности. Няма такова
- Andrew (10/5): Cozy little cabin/cottage - Lovely little cottage, big windows with good blinds, very cosy. The owner was very friendly; even bought us some baked snacks (which we very rudely didn't eat because of dietary reasons). Had everything we needed; wished we could have stayed longer. Straightforward heating in the cottage (just adjust radiators).
- David (10/5): Beautiful and cozy cottage for a relaxed stay - Amazing! The hosts went above and beyond in making it special even for our single night (Thanks for the cookies!). Can only recommend!
- Robert-Jan (10/5): Fantastisch - Erg mooi ingericht, rustig m en alle faciliteiten aanwezig. Heerlijk bed. Ook ontvangst heel goed. Behoort tot beste van de overnachtingen die we in IJsland gehad hebben.
- Yi (10/5): Exceptional - Cosy little gem during our only night in north Iceland. Very comfortable bedroom and homely decor. Welcoming host who accommodated our late check-in. Would definitely come back if visiting north iceland again! Nothing
- Lawrence (10/5): Exceptional - Beautiful setting, charming house Nothing
- Ka (10/5): Exceptional - Very kind and nice host. Warm welcoming when I arrived and introduce his place.
- N. (10/5): Best stay of our trip around the ring road so far! - - We were in the Laugar area for 2 days, day 1 of 2 was at Guesthouse Hvítafell and we spent the 2nd day here.
- This has been the best stay so far on the ring road. They seem to be doing everything right.
- The hosts were very gracious and accommodating. The house has a nice fully equipped kitchen in the sunroom which feels so good to be in.
- The hosts left us a small plate of cakes and cookies which were so good, thank you for that.
- Easily accessible and quiet place to be. - The hot water took some time to show up, it's probably because of the distance to the water heater, might be an issue in the winter, but works fine in the summer.
- Mateusz (10/5): An exceptional place with wonderful hosts. -
- Sanae (9/5): Superb - We had a wonderful stay at this cozy cabin. The kitchen was by far the cleanest we've come across during our travels in Iceland – everything from the plates and cups to the cutlery was spotless and well-organised. It made cooking and dining in real pleasure.
The hosts were very welcoming and kind, and we especially appreciated the thoughtful touch of homemade welcome cookies – they were absolutely delicious! Their hospitality truly made us feel at home. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-cared-for stay in Iceland. The cottage itself is quite compact, and there wasn’t much space to fully open two suitcases at once – but we managed 😀
- Adrian (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent central location for a couple to explore Lake Myvatn, Husavik and Akureyi regions in North Iceland. Beautifully located in rural setting with great views. Actual cottage is lovely, tastefully furnished with every little detail thought of, including full kitchen facilities, verandah, plenty of tourist information. Hosts were good communicators and very helpful. Highly recommended. Nil!
- Marie (10/5): Exceptional - Laugar Guesthouse is even more charming than the photos. It's in a serene setting on a small hill overlooking the owners house but very private and very quiet. It has a small kitchen and a beautiful front porch for sitting outside when the weather is good. It's close to quite a few tourist attractions and there are restaurants nearby. We'd definitely recommend it.
- Jian (10/5): Exceptional -
- Benedict (10/5): A very comfortable stay to just un-wind and relax after traveling long distances. Good value compared to other offerings - Delightful cottage with ample space (we book the larger unit). Quality fittings and touches. Clothesline on verandah. Instant coffee, ground coffee, tea bags, cereal/granola provided. Dining table and chairs; sofa chairs too! Black out shades; bedroom had door that separated it from the living room (useful when one partner sleeps earlier). Nice grounds on all sides. Nothing.
- Fernanda (10/5): Exceptional -
- Vasin (10/5): One of the best night in Iceland - Nice host, warm welcome
Very nice guesthouse
Feel like your home
- Vicki (10/5): Peaceful, relaxing stay in a lovely location, kind helpful hosts. - The cottage was very private and quiet in a lovely location. The hosts were very kind and helpful--the wife made us welcome cookies and cake. The kitchen was well equipped and the bathroom was a nice size. Excellent wifi.
- Barbara (10/5): Exceptional - One of the best accommodations in Iceland, which I would recommend to everyone if they find themselves in this area. You have everything you need - a well-equipped kitchen, cleand bathroom, bedroom and living area. Mr. Baldur was a wonderful host and we had a nice conversation. His wife made very tasty homemade cakes.
- Chi (9/5): Superb - Warm and cosy Nothing except the flies
- Larry (10/5): Exceptional -
- Kim (10/5): Exceptional - Lovely place. Lovely hosts. Very helpful and welcoming. Welcome gift of lovely baked goodies. Spacious, comfortable, clean, peaceful location, yet close to many sights. Use the local Laugar pool if you can. Highly recommend and would stay at again.
- Polyxeni (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was amazing! Easily the best place we stayed during our whole 2 week travel in Iceland! This place is the proof that when someone puts their heart into something, it can turn out the best thing ever! Very cute, ideal size hut with everything someone needs: comfortable bed, spacious clean bathroom, fully equipped kitchen, relaxing sofa both inside and outside, very nice location and view. The hosts live just opposite and can be present if you need anything. They also facilitated us by allowing a bit later check in although not convenient for them without any problem.
A few homemade cookies were also waiting for us as a little welcome treat. There is no better place to go around. Definitely worth the money, if we had more time, we would stay just to enjoy the calmness of the place. It is soooo difficult to find something for this section...
- Sharon (10/5): I rate places based on meeting my expectations. This cottage exceeded all. Convenient, clean, bright, and beautiful with - Perfect little cottage. Clean, bright and had everything we needed and then some (I don’t think there was laundry but we didn’t expect or need it). Location wasn’t in the middle of a tourist area but in a field at a lovely home in a small town easily accessible to all destinations- Akureyri, Husavik and Myvatn. The hosts baked fresh goodies that were delicious. We wished we could have stayed longer. Nothing. If you’re looking for a location in a hotspot then this place isn’t right for you. We were looking for comfort, quiet and convenience and the location couldn’t have been better.
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
- Aneesh (8/5): nice views.. -
- Elizabeth (10/5): Rural peaceful modern cottage with nearby facilities. - Set in a “green” location, grassy slopes and forest behind. Could hear the birds so a nice peaceful environment away from the Myvatn hordes! Well located for visiting different areas. Could have stayed a 3rd day but had to move on. The house was modern, clean, spacious and well equipped. Our hosts were very friendly, spoke good English so had perfect communication and we were welcomed with delicious home cooked biscuits. Petrol station and supermarket within 5 mins. Prices always difficult to rate as Iceland is expensive. Nothing.
- Rebecca (10/5): Very comfortable cabin in a quiet location - So nice and clean. In a location that was quiet, but close to many places we wanted to see in the Mývatn area as well as Husavik. Very comfortable little cabin. Comfortable bed and furnishings. Having a tv with Netflix was a nice bonus. Hosts were welcoming and even provided us with a home baked treat when we arrived. We missed having a little freezer for our ice packs. That’s a minor thing though.
- Kristinn (10/5): Exceptional -
- Enrico (10/5): Exceptional - All perfect!! Island price.. 😅
- Benjamin (10/5): excellent welcome in this guesthouse with homemade cakes, superb view, very quiet environment -
- Fiona (10/5): terrific stay with personal touch - one of the most personable check-ins, came out to greet, got the key out from lockbox, brief tour, some homemade sweets. could very easily have made it just a lockbox thing, but i appreciated the extra mile. also loved that it wasn't blasting hot in there, could easily adjust the temperature with different heaters. location (laugur) is probably hopping during peak august, with a pool, trampoline, restaurant/store/gas all available. and there was not a bug in sight; i don't know how they did it, but that's rare sometimes, especially so close to myvatn. nothing, it was a terrific stay
- Leah (10/5): Exceptional -
- Xi (10/5): perfect stay -
- Povilas (10/5): Exceptional -
- Václav (9/5): comfortable wooden cottage - Small garden cottage for two with everything you need, kitchenette, smaller living room, bedroom and bathroom. There is a hob, hot air fryer, electric kettle. Some food, cornflakes, coffee, tea, sugar, etc. are available. I appreciate the possibility of double darkening in the bedroom (it solves problems when the midnight sun shines outside, usually in the summer months in Iceland) there is not much in the immediate vicinity. But everything is within driving distance, shops, restaurants and tourist attractions
- Phil (9/5): Superb -
- Thomas (10/5): Excellent accomodation for couples. - Situated in a peaceful location outside the village of Laugar. It is a self contained lodge at the rear of the owner's house. It is on the edge of a field, with views from the veranda. Well equipped with outside seating under cover. Able to watch the local bird life feeding in the field whilst having refreshments outside ine evening. Nothing
- Marion (10/5): Comfortable, clean cabin. Exceeded expectations. - We’ve stayed at many small cabins around Iceland and this one exceeded our expectations. It’s very clean, well appointed, and cozy. The owners have taken care to attend to the small details. We visited in early October and the cabin was warm and well insulated. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was well stocked. The cabin is behind the owners house but is very private and has a nice view of the surrounding area. We liked everything about it.
- Jiun (10/5): peaceful and beautiful - Thank you so much for welcoming us. It was the best accommodation in Iceland. :) Nothing.
- Layla (10/5): Magnificent cottage - Everything was perfect!
- Yelena (10/5): Exceptional - Clean, well-maintained, beautifully furnished (with love) house in a picturesque place. Fully equipment kitchen. Hospitable hosts. Everything is perfect
- Agata (10/5): Exceptional - This little house has everything we needed. Perfect and comfy! The owners of the house were delightful. The house was clean and warm. Extra towels, hair dryer, kitchen equipped with pots, nothing was missing. It was great!
- Dominik (10/5): Totally recommend this place for accommodation 11/10. - One of the best accommodations we had on Iceland. Everything was perfect, nice hosts who baked homemade treats for us. The house was the biggest one we had all of the time on our Iceland vacation. Totally recommend this place for accommodation 11/10.
- Silvia (10/5): Exceptional - Best stay for my whole trip in iceland, a total of 8 of them!
Nice host, good facilities, spacious, 3 warmers, hot shower water, good view. Nothing.

- Hong (10/5): Exceptional - The host also very kind offering cookies.
- Evelina (10/5): Great time - Everything was perfect - the location, the house, the equipment of the small kitchen! We had an amazing time there. Totally recommend. nothing
- Brigitte (10/5): Would rate this gem with 11 if I could - This is s place where you could actually live. Spacious, very well equipped. Exceeds the description on Booking by a lot - kitchen has everything you might need, even coffee, muesli, salt… Very comfortable beds. Very friendly welcome by our host - there were even small home-baked cakes to welcome us. There was only one tiny thing: not much space in the shower cubicle - bathroom was spacious, though.
- Andrew (10/5): Exceptional -
- Melani (10/5): Espectacular - Supero ampliamente nuestras expectativas. La atención de la anfitriona fue excelente! Súper recomendable si buscas hospedarte en un lugar bonito, con ambiente familiar y buenos servicios.

- Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautifully managed with great breakfast and small amenities. A great 2 nights
