We could not have enjoyed our stay here more! The home and location are just beautiful beyond words, and the hosts were wonderful with a well stocked place and detailed info packet sent about the unit and the surrounding area. We will definitely be back!
The large villa on the shore of icelands largest fjord offers a luxery interior, great views and a "feel like at home" for some special holidays. Highly recommended. Special thank to Thomas for his help.
Our family of four enjoyed our quiet stay. There was plenty of things to do during the day: whale watching, waterfalls, lava falls, shopping and dining. The view from the house was lovely and we really liked soaking in the hot pot after a full day of sightseeing.
Great house and place! It met all expectations and beyond.

This is a nice modern house in a fantastic location overlooking the fjord. One of our favorite stays in Iceland. Note that the house was missing some basics, such as shampoo, body wash and coffee (but there is a coffee maker), which is quite unusual for Iceland and was a bit of an unpleasant surprise - make sure to plan accordingly. Otherwise, a perfect stay and a good base for exploring Lake Myvatn, Husavik, Akureyri, etc.
We loved the location of the home, not too far from town but far enough to be peaceful. Views were amazing and house was very comfortable. It does not have a freezer so this is just something to plan for.
My wife an I had an absolutely lovely stay. The house is beautiful, and the location is just amazing. We enjoyed the view over the fjord from the hot pot, and watching the Northern Lights right out of the bedroom. Just a short drive from Akureyri but a perfect little secluded hideaway with all the conveniences of home.
This place was an amazing place to stay and a very convenient place to stay in regards to taking day trips to the different regions of northern Iceland. The house was designed well to provide a relaxing places to rest and recuperate in the evenings. Overall, would 100% recommend
This house is charming and everything really clean.
The hottube is very nice under the roof so also by bad weather possible to enjoy.
We can give ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
We really enjoyed our stay. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen fully equipped, just bring your own coffee.
The hot tub and the view are mind blowing. We have been able to spot whales in the distance (bring binnoculars) from the hot tub.
The place was great. Very spacious with all the amenities you need. We loved the view from the living room! The communication with the owners was top notch. They respond quickly and provide detailed directions, instructions and recommendations!
This is our 2nd time staying in Kaldbakur and by far our favourite house in Iceland or possibly in entire world. Clean, quiet, warm and very comfortable. We got snowed in for 2 days during our stay and we just enjoyed spending time in the house relaxing, listening to the music, soaking in the hot tub, appreciating the incredible views, etc.
We love this place and it certainly will not be the last time we stay here. Will be back again soon.
This was an excellent rental property. Clean, well appointed, private, and with stunning views. It’s proximity to Akureyri, Husavik, and the Diamond Circle make for fantastic day trips. Communicating with the owners was simple and efficient. Will definitely return for a longer stay in the future.
This is the 2nd time we've stayed at this home. We've visited Akureyri for spring break with the kids two years in a row. Kaldbakur is such a perfect choice for us - cozy, clean and comfortable in a stunning natural setting. We look forward to our 3rd visit!
Stunning property location with unsurpassed view !!
Our family cannot say enough about our overall experience at this location, whether it be the scenery from your front window, the sheep, oh how I loved the sheep neighbourhood, the property amenities such as the hot tub and nearby hiking, etc. etc.
Everything was wonderful
It started with the excellent communication with the host-- the guide to the rental was the best one I've ever encountered
The views from the living room and sauna were amazing
Appliances were high end and worked well
We also really liked the music system
only thing missing was a freezer in the fridge for ice
And the hottub was great and we made good use of it
The location was also was convenient for exploring northern iceland
Overall we really enjoyed ourselves during our stay and would recommend it to anyone staying in this part of iceland
