Secluded and serene. Love how the homes are built on their own individual mounds of grass allowing for separation and privacy from neighbours. The homes themselves are well equip and spacious with a beautiful shower. Property has 2 friendly dogs belonging to the family roaming around, who came up to greet us and play ball. Host was very welcoming and helpful.

The place was very clean, equipped with a large kitchen and different common rooms to hang out. The room was great and the beds comfortable. The whole guesthouse was probably renovated a while back because it's better live than on the pictures on booking.

    Location this hotel is really great. We felt in this village like in some christmas movie. Everything you need is really close - a great food hall and supermarket. Best attractions were around 1 hour ago - Geysir, Reykjavik and waterfalls. Good choice when you want to visit more places and stay at one place.

    Our stay at Heima Holiday Homes was amazing. The homes were so clean and updated with full kitchen and large bathrooms. The hosts were so helpful and assisted us with travel plans during some bad weather to ensure we were safe in our activities and travel to other destinations. The location is very nice with a beautiful view and is a short drive to town for food etc. we would highly recommend staying here and would absolutely go back.

    Heima Holiday Homes are beautiful, clean, spacious. They are in a more remote section of Selfoss with a gravel driveway but this also makes for private and quiet place to sleep at night. We had a toyota yaris car and it handled the driveway just fine. There are many waterfalls within 30mins to 1 hour of this rental. The hosts are very helpful if you need them but otherwise will give you privacy. We would definitely recommend and stay here again.
