Beautiful, peaceful location and well equipped accommodation for a lovely relaxing stay. Appreciated the attention to detail (for example black out curtains for the door - handy as we were there mid summer when sun doesn’t set). They also responded very quickly to correct the bed configuration. Will be back!

The house (House No. 3) was absolutely beautiful, very clean, and the view was simply wonderful. The check-in process was easy, and we received all the necessary information before our arrival, which made everything very convenient. The hot tub was fantastic, the kitchen was well equipped, and overall we highly recommend staying here. Thank you for a wonderful stay! :)

Amazing place. Super spacious and equipped with everything. Hot tub was great. We stayed 2 nights and enjoyed our time here so much. Quiet and peaceful with great views. Great location; close to Husavik and Akureyi. 20 minutes to Godafoss Waterfall.

Absolutely beautiful Villa with a stunning view. The Villa has everything you need, also for longer stays. The whirlpool is a perfect place to relax after a long day around the diamond circle. We can highly recommend this accommodation und will be back when in Iceland again.

We absolutely loved it. An excellent "cottage" complete for a long term stay with very nice appointments and a gorgeous serene and peaceful view. It is about 30 minutes from towns and grocery stores so plan ahead. The hosts were very helpful and responsive.

We had a beautiful stay in end April enjoying all house had to offer. We’ll be back for sure.

My family did an 8-days ring road of Iceland in early April 2026, and this place/villa was, out of all the 7 hotels, hands down best hotel we stayed. My husband who doesn't usually leave reviews asked me to post a review for this place! Everything was spotless clean, modern and well equipped. We could definitely feel the owners' thoughtful touches throughout the villa (wooden chess set, warm blanket, olive oil for cooking, artistic coffee/tea cups, Reykjavik candle company 'hotel-lobby' room scent, cookbook for reference... ) And the hot-tub!! I think I want to re-visit Iceland just to use this place's hot-tub. Everything was so perfect and lovely. Thank you for the wonderful experience.

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

The house is incredible. Every detail is well thought through. The amenities are of high quality. The kitchen has everything you need to cook, which is not usual in Iceland. We loved the hot tub under the bright stars and Aurora. We liked the remote location; still it’s close to Husavik and Akureyri. Perfect location to explore the north of Iceland!

Wunderschönes Haus mit allem, was das Herz begehrt. Tolle Einrichtung, fantastischer Ausblick - super zum Entspannen.

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

Alles tiptop in orde, mooie locatie, centraal gelegen, goede keuken met oven en de hot tub maakt de ervaring helemaal af

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.

Alles war perfekt, es gab sogar Wärmflaschen. Und genügend Kapseln für die Nespressomaschine.

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.
