Great place

Loved the place! Super great location and setup. I was disappointed not all the bed had sheets and they forgot to give us a crib. Owner was quick to fix it. The gate is annoying, but it is an all of Iceland thing

Family Celebration

The cabin was the perfect base to explore the southern part of Iceland. We were a family of 5 adults, the cabin gave us plenty of space. The location is remote, perfect for seeing the Northern Lights, but close to Selfoss and the Golden Circle sights. It was extremely well equipped with the bonus of the hot-tub and sauna. It is even better than the photos.

Exceptional house and location

The property was absolutely perfect for my group. We had great weather and viewed the northern lights 6 of 7 nights while at the property. Which was awesome saved me from driving to other locations yes the landscape did not change but the views were still amazing. I would absolutely stay here again if I return to Iceland. Yes it is a bit of a drive to Reykajavik but the location is great for touring the south coast, golden circle, and areas around the national park.

Cozy Comfort in the Heart of Iceland's Beauty

We had a wonderful stay at this cozy and clean cabin, perfectly situated near many of Iceland's stunning natural attractions. The owner had thoughtfully prepared an excellent manual that answered all our questions, and he was always easy to reach and quick to respond to any requests. Even during a big storm, the house kept us warm and comfortable. We couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay during our visit to Iceland!

Amazing stay in the coziest place!

A bunch of my med school friends and I stayed here for our trip to Iceland and we were so pleased with the experience. It was the perfect basecamp for us as we travel mostly during the day and came back to the best amenities and such a great open space for all of us to relax. Communication was thorough but through WhatsApp and through a very detailed handbook left inside! Would absolutely recommend this place to future guests!

Cozy Stay at the Fensalir cabin

Nice stay

Really enjoyed the size, location and hot tub/sauna. Kitchen is well stocked. There is a gate to the community, so make sure you access the check in instructions as soon as they are available. We could not get the instructions open when we arrived at the gate, but there was an open construction road that allowed U.S. to get to the cabin. The cabin is in a little community, but is fairly private. There is a power station or something down the road that put off some light pollution. Overall, would recommend.

Family Vacation in Iceland

We had a wonderful stay at this property. We were travelling with children and grandparents and the home was perfectly equipped for all of us. The kitchen had everything needed to prepare meals and the house was also a convenient distance to a town with shops and restaurants. This was a great home base to see many attractions. In addition to the great outdoor space, the house was also comfortable and clean. Check in/out was easy and the owners were very accommodating. Thanks for hosting us on our Iceland adventure.

The place was amazing. The remote and quiet location, the hot tub and sauna were such a treat. We used the kitchen a lot as there are not many places for food around but we totally didn’t mind.

Fantastic place

The place was as described. Beautiful home; great views from large windows. Very warm and comfortable Nice shower; rooms; kitchen; extremely quiet rural area. Grounds are muddy outside if you try to walk but easy to park car at door. It’s a bit of a drive to get to key tourist attractions. If you follow detailed instructions in book then you can get everything to work Hot tub and sauna makes you very spoiled and pampered. Host very responsive and was kind to allow early check in

Winter visit

The cabin location and amenities were fantastic, we could not have been happier. Owners were accommodating and make things easy with a lot of resources and information about the cabin. We didn’t use the hot tub more than one time due to windy cold conditions - also a wee intimidating to have to put water in it when it’s cold and blowy. Sauna was fabulous but took quite some time and the floor rarely got warm enough due to the cold.

a lovely week in the cabin

This is a very nice cottage that can accommodate a large group/family. The rooms/showers are nice, and the open kitchen/dining/living room area with high ceilings is fantastic. We also particularly appreciated the artwork in different rooms. The separate guest room with its own shower offers additional privacy. It would be helpful to put blackout curtains for the upper windows in the guest bedroom. Also, please add a lock (same key) for the guest room so it can be locked from the outside when not there (now locking is possible only when inside). Overall, we very much enjoyed the cabin.

Christmas at Fensalir

The cabin, 3 bedroom with a guesthouse, was situated only 15-20 minutes north of the town of Selfoss. It was easily accessible but you need a vehicle that can handle snow should they get a nice storm like we did on Boxing Day! It is not remote, but feels like it. It sits in a quiet area with several other homes within sight but far enough away to enjoy peace and quiet. It is well stocked for plates and such and guests have donated quite a selection of spices and such over thier stays. Selfoss, the nearest town has two grocery stores: Kronan & Bonus. The owners are very friendly and provide a detailed guide to the cabin—better than I have seen in most other properties. I think they go above and beyond to make guests at the cabin feel at home. Due to the weather we did not try the hot tub but we used the sauna multiple times and it had a gorgeous view out the tinted glass. Only issue we had was that the home was pretty hot so we had to leave windows open from time to time and never used the fireplace. So the next guests have plenty to use! Last thing, is that the owners are extremely helpful in helping you get prepared for your stay and have compiled very detailed guides to help guests long before you even step foot into into Iceland!
