Custom Luxury Trips to Iceland

This place is so stylish and modern—very nice! It has a great little bar to unwind. If you’re traveling with a larger group, it’s a good idea to book the same type of rooms so they can be put next to each other. The whole property is broken up into a few different buildings. Some only having 4 rooms. We had a standard room and one with a bit more flair, but they were in different buildings. With kids needing to split up, that was a bit of a challenge. However, the hotel staff were incredibly helpful and found the best solution for us. I’d definitely choose to stay here again.

We all felt right at home here! The rooms are designed with singles and couples in mind, much like a hostel, but it was perfect for our short stay. We had our own space in the building, which was just what we needed. Plus, there was a playground for the kids and horses to see right on the property. The place was spotless and well-kept. They do offer a small breakfast, but it’s enough to keep you going until lunch. If you need groceries or restaurants, you’re about a 15-20 minute drive from the main town.

We had an amazing time staying here! The farmhouse was perfect for all six of us. The restaurant served some of the best food we’ve ever tasted in Iceland. The kids absolutely loved the little playground with the bouncy inflatable. And the thermo spa was a real treat. The farmhouse had everything we needed for a long stay, and we wish we could have stayed longer.

This apartment was a lovely one block from Reykjavik’s main street. Finding it took a few turns, as GPS can be a bit off. Plus, it’s on a one-way street, so if you miss it, you’ll have to loop around. There’s parking, but it can be a bit cramped, especially if you have a larger vehicle like we did. A smaller car would work just fine. The apartment had quite a few stairs, which is okay if you’re staying for a few nights. However, carrying big, heavy suitcases up the stairs for just one night can be a bit of a hassle. There’s plenty of room for the six of us. I definitely recommend it for a longer stay in Reykjavik, but it might not be the best choice for a quick visit.

This was a decent experience. It’s a larger boat, which means more people crowding the rails to grab a glimpse, but that’s okay, used to those types of tours. However, because it’s bigger, the boat can’t get too close to the shore to see the puffins. You really need binoculars to get a good look. They are very small. Little white dots on the shore line. The boat does provide binoculars, but there is a limited supply. Unless you’re a serious bird watcher and enthusiast, I’d probably pass on this tour. It's Iceland, so many other things to see. The boat was clean, and the crew members were friendly and knowledgeable.
