This was by far our absolute favourite accommodation during our trip around Ring Road. They greeted us by name when we arrived and gave us a full tour. The atmosphere is relaxed and welcoming, and the decorating is lovely and quaint. After being in our car for so long, we were grateful for the complimentary coffee/tea, lemon water, chocolate cake and cookies. Our room was fresh and clean. The bathrooms...
Our favorite stay so far in Iceland! Comfortable beds, and very clean shared restrooms. Make sure to take advantage of the view from the hot tub.
The horse riding tour was gorgeous and the horses were really sweet and the staff very professional. We had some good tea and coffee afterwards (included) to warm up and that was the perfect ending to our experience.
This place is super close to the center of Akureyri and also its cruise port!
This place is AMAZING! Definitely a great spot to visit! We did an hour horseback ride. Our guide was wonderful to chat with and the horses were so sweet! The views were amazing too-beach and mountains. Following the ride we got to take a dip in the hot tub and then had coffee and delish brownies. Everyone was very friendly and the place is super clean and cute.
I have traveled around the world and stayed in many different places, but this one is simply the best. Sweet and attentive host, the house is beautiful, full of details to be comfortable and have an incredible experience. The views are wonderful and when I think of the bath I had in the hot tub I just get a huge smile in my face. Breakfast was superb. I am already dreaming of returning to this guesthouse...
Google maps does NOT know where this place is, doesn't even know the road. So you'll end up at the empty place across the street. Fear not: Skjaldarvik is just across the road, closer to the bay, with the horses. Just back up the road a bit, and you'll see the sign.
Clean, welcoming, beautiful location, quiet, basically everything you want. They have a northern lights sign up sheet at the front desk...
