Hengifosslodge Tiny Houses in Egilsstadir provides adults-only accommodation with a private beach area and a garden. This beachfront property offers access to a balcony, free private parking and free WiFi. The chalet offers lake views and a picnic area.

The property is amazing. The owners clearly care a lot about the place and their guests! The amount of small little details that we loved is too many to mention individually, but everything looked like it was done with intention, from the kitchenware to the bathroom supplies to even the coat hangers. The fireplace was an absolutely amazing little add-on, which one doesn’t often get, and which made it even cozier and homey-er. The kitchen was fully equipped and everything worked great, the beds were comfortable and warm. The place in itself is easy to find with the descriptions, and close enough to the next town to quickly get some essentials if needed, while also far enough away to feel cosy and calm. We had a brief chat with one of the owners when we arrived, who was super nice and told us a little bit about the house and the area in general. Thanks for an amazing stay!

The hosts were great, greeted us even at the late time we arrived and asked us about our trip and where we've been and where we're going and gave us some helpful tips (only host we had that did that) they upgraded us to a better room and we had some frozen food with us that we couldn't cook and the hosts went above and beyond and cooked the food for us! We were delighted by their hospitality. The room was great, Its location was far and quite remote but that just made it even more enjoyable for us as it was in a prime location to watch the northern lights If you're planning to stay in Egilsstaðir this is the place for you

Overlooking Lake Lagarfljót, this guest house is 5 minutes’ drive from central Egilsstadir. All rooms include free WiFi access, a fridge and a private bathroom with shower.

A flat-screen TV, electric kettle and wardrobe are featured in all guest rooms at Skipalaekur Guesthouse. Bed linen and towels are included.

The room was quite large and nicely decorated. The shared kitchen and dining area was outstanding. The whole place was very clean. We needed help with the heating system (we are from a hot country and didn’t know how to use it) and one of the family was there within 10 mins which was greatly appreciated. We really enjoyed our stay.

    Nice village like surroundings. All our questions were quickly answered by the host over phone and in person. She came in person to address them. Laundry though small worked just fine. Horse rides, animal petting available on site. Unfortunately, we stayed just one night.

    Arni was a very friendly and helpful host. His suggestions for outings were great. We enjoyed watching the puffins at Höfn which was a village worth spending a bit of time in after a lovely drive across the mountains. We also visited the gorge he recommended on the way to Myvatn. The smoked lamb and dried fish gave us an unexpected taste of Iceland and we really enjoyed his travel stories and knowledge of the country.
