Svartaborg

Perfect all round

incredible hotel! we splurged on this hotel and we’re so glad we did. the host was super responsive and nice. definitely recommed

Loved theblocation, solitude, hot tube, etc. It was great!

Super nice place. Everything new and high quality. Everything provided. Excellent view. Best place we stayed in in Iceland.

The views and the privacy were incredible. The host was responsive and helpful. Gave clear instructions on getting there. Created amazing memories staying at the Svartaborg cabins.

Superb in all ways! Remote, beautiful, owners are wonderful!

An amazing relaxing stay at Svartaborg. I love the location with the option to relax, or have a drive with so many things to see only a short drive away. We’ll be back. The houses themselves are stunning, and a dip in the hot tub tops off this amazing property/location.

Beautiful, modern micro-house, with lots of space. Excellent heating in the cold weather. Amazing views from huge windows. Great kitchen for cooking, which you will need, as there are no restaurants close by.

This was the best place we stayed at in all of Iceland.

This was one of the most anticipated stops along our road trip. We were only able to stay one night due to availability but we would have loved to stay longer. The place was very quiet, peaceful and romantic. The space was mindfully designed and very visually appealing. I can tell the owner out a lot of thought into the interior design. The heated floors + heated towel rack made the place even more cozy. We enjoyed the stars in the jacuzzi but unfortunately didn’t see the northern lights that night (although I’m sure it is a great place to see them when they are out). The only downside was some of the pots were covered in food from previous guests. All of the plates, cups and silverware were spotless though.

This stay was amazing, the decor was very chic and had us wandering around complimenting each of the design choices. Every detail had been thought of - from robes to use in the geothermal hot tub (a great experience even in winter) through to slippers and hot water bottles. The view from the windows was also great and we saw the northern lights during our stay. We booked this for my partners birthday and although it’s pricey it’s 100% worth it for a special occasion.

Absolutely spectacular.

This was a lovely place to spend my birthday, gorgeous private unit and geothermal outdoor hot tub. Was a bit on the pricey side but if your looking to splurge the views were absolutely gorgeous.

BEAUTIFUL home. Facilities top notch - modern, thoughtful amenities. Wish were had stayed longer.

Unique location with 360 degree views of the surroundings. Quiet location, clean fully equipped villa with all amenities including a full kitchenette, comfortable and cozy beds. Easiest check in and check out. Host is super responsive and willing to go the extra steps to make guests happy. Would certainly very highly recommend staying at any of these villas when in Lake Myvatn area.

Best property we have stayed at in our entire trip! The place is just so lovely equipped with everything you need! You feel the luxury from when you step in….my kids did not want to leave after our two days here. The views are just beautiful…close to all main attractions and really feels like home away from home.. The owners were the nicest people! Communication was outstanding and they are very considerate and nice people who truly want to make your stay pleasant and enjoyable!

We loved this stay so much. It was clean and luxurious. The perfect place to spend a couple of nights to adventure into Húsavík!

Amazing place and hosts! Highly recommend, not one minor issue! The place itself had literally everything you can think of - fully stocked kitchen with all the appliances from really nice tableware to nespresso machine, mixer, grill press, grill outside, meat thermometer…literally everything. Heated floors are wonderful and the hot tub with geothermal water was amazing. Very comfy bed. Beautiful views. The hosts/ owners were just wonderful and easy to communicate. They offered to come dig out cars out of snow whenever, and they did - on Christmas morning! They were also very quick to respond to our messages. Overall - outstanding experience and absolutely planning to be back.

This is a beautiful cabin well located to enjoy all that the areas of Húsavik and Akureyri have to offer. The units are stylish, modern and well appointed with all the amenities you find at home. The bed is comfortable and the linens high quality. You can tell a lot of thought went into the design of the space to make your stay comfortable and effortless. The hot tub was an unexpected and welcome addition. Soak while taking in the northern lights, or after a long day exploring the area. We’ll definitely be back.

In a word Amazing. Don’t forget to bring food with you! The place is beautiful and the owners literally thought of everything. Highly recommended, we will be back!
