Perfect place to stay in Northern Iceland!
We were so pleased with our time at Vallholt! Our family of 5 enjoyed the layout of the house, the view, and the quiet town. We were able to drive and explore the surrounding areas with ease and then soak in the hot tub after a day of exploring. I could not imagine a more perfect place to stay.

Amazing Time in Grenivik
Myself and a group of friends made the trip to Grenivik for Spring Break, and had a wonderful time in town thanks to the Vrbo provided by Thomas. Everything from details about amenities in the house to fun things to do around town were provided by the host, making this experience absolutely perfect for myself and my friends.

A very nice and cozy place to stay
The property was lovely for the most part. It was warm and cozy and spacious. The upstairs shower was not working properly. We reported it. Luckily there was a downstairs shower we could use. It would have been rough if a big group was there. We only had two people for our stay. Also, there was no dishwasher soap. And it would have been nice to have some measuring utensils. There wasn’t even a measuring cup. Aside from the shower issue, nothing else was a major problem. Overall, I would definitely stay there again. The pluses definitely outweighed any minuses. The view was spectacular! The one and only time we saw the northern lights was from the house. The downstairs family room was huge and a really nice touch. We spent a lot of time there. It had big windows to see the view as well.

House with uninterrupted super sea side views
Property has a rather unusual layout with the lounge in the basement. This means the best views are always from the Kitchen on the first floor. The only downside is there is a new property being built next door. This was not a problem during our stay but as it grows I suspect the noise will become increasingly intrusive during the day.

The most relaxing time one can have
Honestly, this place is a remarkable gem, in an adorable town, set in an unforgettable region of Iceland. We LOVED every second here and coming back to this house after a day of exploring felt calming. Bring groceries, have a seat in the hot pot, enjoy the view from a bunk bed, stay a while!!!

Wonderful Location-Great House
The house sits right on the water and is surrounded by mountains. It was clean but there was an odor in the house. The rooms/beds were very nice. We had a bad storm and lost power for about 45 minutes but the host was available by phone and assured us it would be back on shortly.

Wonderful, quiet, beautiful view
Everything was wonderful… very clean, all the dishes we needed to cook in, plenty of room, even had a drying rack for items we didn’t want to dry all the way.. many sights to see within 1.5 hours driving, making it our perfect base to explore the north..
