We stayed for 7 nights end of December beginning of January 2026 and we were lucky to see the northern lights from home in the last day as the sky was clear and the place is dark and far from the city. The place is spectacular and spacious and is equipped with all what you need. If you’re planning to stay here make sure to get your grocery items from the city as there is no near shops. The place is calm and quiet which is perfect for relaxing and enjoying the nature. To get there I suggest renting a car as no taxi is near and even public transportation. The person in charge of renting the place was responsive and friendly and checking in was very easy and without any direct connection. The place has a heater so even when it was -14 we couldn’t feel cold inside as the place was nice and warm. I highly recommend this place for families and group of friends who is looking for nice quiet place to stay in.

− Since is it is quite far from the city and services we needed to drive for far distance to get to our destination, however, if you are going to book all your tour with the company then there is a nearby activity center which makes it perfect for whom looking for tours.

Het chalet was schoon, goed ingericht en comfortabel.

Een comfortabel huis op een prachtige locatie.

− De voordeur was moeilijk te openen. Jammer dat er niet een kamer bij was met twee een-persoonsbedden ipv in elke slaapkamereen tweepersoonsbed.

Wow, this house was stunning. Clean, modern, private. The location was far out in the west countryside away from the touristy south, which was our plan, but convenient to explore the west of Iceland from. Yes, we did see the northern lights!!! Even though its out there away from bigger towns, a 20 min drive brought us to restaurants if we chose. The house had a hot tub, which we utilized daily and it was wonderful to sit under the stars and talk about our day and what to do tomorrow. The kitchen had all you needed (we purchased wine in the duty free shop at the airport and shopped in Borgarnes prior to arriving at the chalet). We ate most breakfasts and cooked our evening meals from the Chalet. The complex was quiet and the Chalet very private, not to mention the views incredible. You can hike from the chalet or drive a bit and hike and explore other areas. We drove to the Snaefellsjokull peninsular, which you can do and drive back in a day, but that made a long day because we stopped alot, so we choose to stay 1 night in Stykkisholmur to break up the drive. Another day we went down R550 to 52 to thingvellir Nat'l Park and drove part of the golden circle and stayed the night in vik to explore that area (Vik's a very long drive from the Chalet BTW). Drove the rest of the circle on our way home. Again a great location to explore from. We highly recommend The Luxury Chalet. In addition to it being an amazing accommodation splitting the cost with others made this a very affordable place for a 2 week stay. We will be back one day! Thank you Luxury Chalet for making our 1st trip to Iceland memorable. If you don't mind driving Iceland we loved everything about the Chalet and the area it's located in.

− Not much at all, no dislikes at all. The only thing I can even think of is better instructions on how to use the washing machine, it was a bit confusing for us trying to figure it out. And, coming from the US a microwave is pretty common and it would have been a bonus if there was one at the Chalet.
