And, we talked about some of the things we were still hoping to see and his knowledge of the country provided some direction that was really helpful, allowing us to see more of what we had read might be possible. ##### Mark A Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Catherine Jun 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Cute and cozy cabins. Host was very pleasant and a wealth of information about Iceland as he is well travelled. Breakfast was delicious and abundant. Appreciated the small signs to help find the property as otherwise would have been challenging to locate. ##### Catherine Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Craig Aug 20, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Peaceful Stay in the Country We stayed in one of the cottages. It was very quiet and comfortable. There are no restaurants for dinner near by so plan ahead. The breakfast was included and had a good selection of things to eat. It was served at a big table in the main house and gave us a chance to meet the host and the other guests. ##### Craig Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### ying Aug 23, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The owner is friendly and fun. We arrived after 10pm but he was waiting for us there. The best part is he shared lots of his adventures and photos. We were so inspired by his interesting life. And we had great chat with other passengers too during the nice free breakfast. This is the best stay of our Iceland trip! We loved it ##### ying Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Alexander Mar 1, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities We booked the accomodation via expedia though it was closed and not prepared for guests when we arrived on site. The host was not on site but managed a friend to prepare everything for us and hand us over the key - so we had the entire appartment for our own and a very firendly and helpful neighbour. Great service! ##### Alexander Stayed 1 night in Feb 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Sarah Oct 4, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### One Night in the Country Check in at Alfastein was stated as 6pm and that’s all the information we received initially. Luckily, we found Agust’s phone number and he helped us locate the key to let ourselves in. Soon after, Keli, the host came to welcome us and made sure we were settled. He made us feel very welcome, since we had to leave very early in the morning he fixed up the coffee for us and even offered a huge bag of bread to feed to the horses. This was such a memorable activity. We also got to see some Aurora although it was a bit cloudy. The whole house was very clean, full of interesting items, the beds were incredibly comfortable after a long day and we were warm all night. I wish we could’ve stayed here several more days. Thank you for your hospitality. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/B88ADC56FA38F5C87D9989F3931AEAD1BAAA054C1728052266422.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/F457C2018076EA9648E235F339856E278D3B9BC21728052265867.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/23D16C506E15507974AAC24780C24FB400288A9F1728052266252.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Sarah Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Samantha Oct 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities The Hela cabin was a wonderful stay for 3 people, it was charming and cozy. There were also horses living on the other side of the fence, we had a joy feeding and petting them! The location was also a plus, far enough from town to enjoy the stars and country atmosphere, but near enough for a short drive for meals and groceries (\~10 mins). ##### Samantha Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Barbara Sep 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The host was amazing with Icelandic knowledge, friendly and the accommodations were beautiful.

Properly is beautiful, clean and peaceful. Only negative is WiFi didn’t work in my downstairs bedroom and the room got pretty warm during the night. But would stay again if ever in the area. 😊👍 ##### Jessica Stayed 1 night in Aug 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Konvin Hotel by Reykjavik Keflavik Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-BB-Hotel-By-Keflavik-Airport.h3474914.Hotel-Information) > > [Stracta Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Rangaring-Ytra-Hotels-Stracta-Hotel.h7986040.Hotel-Information) > > [The Greenhouse Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Hveragerdi-Hotels-The-Greenhouse-Hotel.h63857923.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Smyrlabjorg](https://www.expedia.ca/Hofn-Hotels-Hotel-Smyrlabjorg.h27052423.Hotel-Information) > > [Black Beach Suites](https://www.expedia.ca/Vik-I-Myrdal-Hotels-Black-Beach-Suites.h21959953.Hotel-Information) > > [Hótel Kría](https://www.expedia.ca/Vik-I-Myrdal-Hotels-Hotel-Kria.h22847314.Hotel-Information) > > [Blue Mountain Apartments by Heimaleiga](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Blue-Mountain-Apartments.h10632146.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Höfn](https://www.expedia.ca/Hofn-Hotels-Hotel-Hofn.h19291791.Hotel-Information) > > [Fosshotel Núpar](https://www.expedia.ca/Kalfafell-Hotels-Fosshotel-Nupar.h7999374.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Sydney](https://www.expedia.ca/Sydney-Hotels.d4057.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Höfn - Berjaya Iceland Hotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Hofn-Hotels-Hotel-Edda-Hofn.h6416443.Hotel-Information) > > [Fosshotel Vatnajokull](https://www.expedia.ca/Hofn-Hotels-Fosshotel-Vatnajokull.h7998536.Hotel-Information) > > [Aurora Lodge Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Rangaring-Eystra-Hotels-Aurora-Lodge-Hotel.h23696101.Hotel-Information) > > [Hótel Dyrhólaey](https://www.expedia.ca/Vik-I-Myrdal-Hotels-Hotel-Dyrholaey.h21081951.Hotel-Information) > > [Fosshotel Glacier Lagoon](https://www.expedia.ca/Fagurholsmyri-Hotels-Fosshotel-Glacier-Lagoon.h12794262.Hotel-Information) > > [The Barn - Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/Vik-I-Myrdal-Hotels-The-Barn.h32596142.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Vík í Mýrdal](https://www.expedia.ca/Vik-I-Myrdal-Hotels-Hotel-Vik.h35767873.Hotel-Information) > > [The Retreat at Blue Lagoon Iceland](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-The-Retreat-At-Blue-Lagoon-Iceland.h33987034.Hotel-Information) > > [ION Adventure Hotel, Nesjavellir, a Member of Design Hotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Selfoss-Hotels-ION-Adventure-Hotel.h8393015.Hotel-Information) > > [Eleven Deplar Farm ](https://www.expedia.ca/Skagafjorour-Hotels-Eleven-Experience-Deplar-Farm.h35065041.Hotel-Information) > > [Reykjavik Natura - Berjaya Iceland Hotels](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Icelandair-Hotel-Reykjavik-Natura.h12750.Hotel-Information) > > [Northern Light Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Northern-Light-Inn.h12320638.Hotel-Information) > > [Temptation Cancun Resort All Inclusive - Adults Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Cancun-Hotels-Temptation-Cancun-Resort-All-Inclusive-Adults-Only.h17310768.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Baltimore (BWI)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/bwi/toronto-to-baltimore) > > [Flights from Edmonton (YEG) to Dallas (DFW)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yeg/dfw/edmonton-to-dallas) ### Cars ### Activities ### Packages
