I loved this place. It was perfect location for different places to visit such as Geyster, Pingvilllar (National Park), etc. The accommodation was cosy and lovely. The owners were friendly, helpful and thoughtful; always informed me and my friends about the weather and issues with the hire car. We loved the scenery of the lake especially visiting the hot geothermal bath nearly every night. the last night before we returned to the city, we saw Northern Lights! that was the highlight of the short break. We would go back and stay there again. Loved it.

We chose it as a night stop between golden circle and Vik; village has thermal baths but we had already had thermal spa at blue lagoon, so we didn’t try these baths;
There are at least three places for dinner :)
The village is not worth for a longer stay or you can find a more attractive place ;)

Extremely quiet place.. not much to do.
Extremely quiet place.. not much to do. If you want a quiet place to recharge and do nothing, this is your place. We stayed 2 nights which is maybe too much for this little spot. Enjoyed onion ring burgers at Goodburger!

My guesthouse was comfortable and pleasant.
My guesthouse was comfortable and pleasant. I wished I had more time to enjoy the Fortuna. My hike at 10pm was delightful. I cannot recall ever smelling fresher air. The lupines, birches and pines were lovely. It was easy to get to all of the sites on the Golden Circle from there. Would gladly go back.
This place is exactly what you see on the pictures! It is quiet, extremely enjoyable and very addictive experience. Here are main pros:
- Hosts are very communicative and helpful.
- The view from the window was amazing!
- Cottage was very clean and well prepared. Netflix onboard, kitchen fully equipped.
- Parking place next to the cottage.
- Perfect place to feel the spirit of Iceland. Close to all Golden Circle attractions.
- Sheep are all around!
- 8km to the nearest shop in Laugarvatn
We enjoyed staying a Farmhotel Efstidalur II. It was neat being in a quiet area away from the city, and among the farm animals. The hotel restaurant is very good. We liked the grilled Arctic Char and home-made ice cream. The farm atmosphere was interesting and fun. We really enjoyed watching the cows from the restaurant. The room decor was nice, like a cabin, and had a heated floor.
Nice to have breakfast provided in the morning with a cute little shop to peruse. Bedrooms/bathrooms were overall comfortable and clean. Location was awesome coming from Reykjavik and spending the day at Thingvellir National Park. Cute little town with an awesome hot spring, Laugarvatn Fontana, and delicious dinner food at the hostel down the street.
My family and I booked this place last minute when we needed a place to stay while in Iceland. The host was very responsive to let us know how to retrieve the keys to get in. We got in late and went straight to bed before leaving in the morning, but no issues while we were there.
This cottage is in the golden circle area, very close to Fontana thermal spa. It’s out in a field amongst horses and farmland. We enjoyed two rooms, private bath, and a kitchen. The deck with pastoral views was lovely. What’s not to love?
WiFi connection was great.
We liked the beautiful views, being near nature and close to places we wanted to visit in the Golden Circle. It was very windy some days and it was really amazing to experience the powerful Icelandic winds and see the sky clear for the stars at night!
Staff is extremely professional and nice. They have a lounge room that is always open and where you can eat (coffee and water is for free). The hotel style is very coezy. It is well positioned respect to the golden circle and the thingvellir
The location is very close to Laugarvatn Fontana Spa (3 mins walking distance).
The room is very spacious and all the amenities were available.
The mudroom to ensure the cleanliness of the apartment.
Self check-in was very swift.
One of the best hotels of our trip. Beautiful and cosy room. The staffs were friendly. The dinner was nice and beautifully located with a view. Close to great attractions. Would love to stay a few nights more if we had more time.
We loved our stay at the sweet little guesthouse. The front desk was super helpful, the decor was fun and eclectic the pizza was yummy and breakfast was fantastic! We are so happy that we chose this for our time in Iceland!
I Loved the Hotel which was once a Boarding school. Walking around in socks in this old, giant building was super comfy. One of the two Webcams documenting the northern Lights in Iceland is also located at the nearby Lake.
We enjoyed our country retreat among the sheep and birds. Our cottage was clean and cozy. It had everything we needed and the quietude of Laugarvatn provided a nice contrast to Reykjavik (although we enjoyed them both).
Beautiful cottage with stunning view from the terrace. Also the surrounding area is worth it, especially Laugarvatn Fontana and Þingvellir. It would be nice to come back someday.
Best stay in Iceland- the cottage is.m clean , neat and tidy. The mattresses are really good quality( memory foam) , kitchen has everything you needed - salt /pepper/ oil/ etc
