This property is an absolute gem in the Golden Circle loop. We wanted to be centralized between all of our stops, including the Golden Circle, Heimaey Island, and numerous waterfalls, which is why we targeted this location. We also found being close to Selfoss an advantage since it has everything you could need. The pictures of the house and property don't do it justice. This is a well set up house, including a kitchen that had everything we needed to cook at home and laundry. The geothermal hot tub has a beautiful view. Sola was very responsive through the entire trip. This location exceeded our expectations, we would happily go back.
