Located just steps from the ocean, RVK HoriZon is a semi-detached holiday home with a garden, located in Álftanes in the Reykjavik Capital Region. The property is 14 km from Downtown Reykjavík and boasts views of the ocean.

A very nice house with all you need. Great location: close to the capital by car but outside the city in a protected area with the a lot of different birds. Quiet and very clean. Helpful owners. A very good place.

Featuring a free car rental during your stay, this self-catering holiday home is located in central Reykjavik and just a few minutes' walk from Reykjavik City Hall and Tjörnin Lake.

At Vaktahouse, you are provided with a fully equipped kitchen, furnished patio and free WiFi access.

The property is beautiful. The attention to detail is better than we could've imagined. Local artisans' work can be seen in every inch from the dishes to the textiles. Margret is a very kind and gracious host. I had a lot of questions and Margret was always quick to respond and oh-so helpful. My family arrived on my son's 11th birthday and Margret helped organize delivery of a delicious cake from a local bakery. There were also pastries and assorted beverages, cheese, milk, etc. so that when we arrived very jet-lagged, we could focus on resting and refueling. Vakta house is a magical place!

Looking for a vacation home?

Great for families or large parties, vacation homes are privately owned accommodations, available for long or short-term rental. These homes are furnished and equipped with kitchen facilities, though breakfast might be offered as an add-on. These properties have their own independent front door, which makes them different than apartments.

    Great, quiet location with fantastic views. A little drive from the main roads, but that´s perfectly to our liking. Very clean and spacious room, comfortable beds including the sofabed. Also the little terrace on the seaside was perfect for a morning coffee or latenight stargazing :)

    This Hotel's location is a gem if you want to see the Northern Lights. We booked it because we wanted to be somewhere dark and try to see them, which we managed to do on the only night we were there. We couldn't believe our luck! The ocean views all around are gorgeous as well, both by day and night. Our room was very clean and quite modern, with a fresh and clean toilet as well. Check-in went smoothly even though there was no staff on sight, since they simply left the key inside and we could arrive whenever we wanted.

    We only stayed at the Hlid fishing village for one night and unfortunately arrived in the dark and left in the middle of a crazy storm so we didn't get to make the most of it. However the room was lovely, large and had windows on both sides, so you could make the most of the views to sea. It was very clean, and offered everything you need.
