Hestheimar

We totally enjoyed our stay. The staff was friendly and helpful, food delicious and room very comfortable. It was a treat to be able to watch Icelandic horses in the fields from the windows of our room.

Beautiful and peaceful place ! Highly recommend

A nice guesthouse/small boutique hotel

Great location for exploring the southern coast, and the property is clean with beautiful views. Our cabin was sandwiched between the communal parking lot out front and an active construction site out back, complete with exposed septic infrastructure and loose wiring. The construction lights also impacted stargazing and northern lights viewing. The advertised hot tub turned out to be communal, attached to the reception building, and far enough from the cabins that you need to drive there. WiFi was weak in the cabin. The accommodation felt tired and cramped for a family of five. Mattresses were uncomfortable, and supplies were stingy: two toilet paper rolls for five people over four nights, and no shampoo or conditioner, just body wash. Every other place we stayed in Iceland covered the basics. Extra-fee signage throughout added to a transactional feel. The breakfast is marketed as a highlight (and priced at around $100 for five). Ours wasn’t. Tomatoes and cucumbers were past their best, bacon was undercooked and fatty, fruit was unripe, and the muffins tasted off enough that the kids each tried one and stopped. We’d had a nearly identical spread at Efstidalur that was genuinely our favorite breakfast in Iceland. Go there instead. We left after one night of a four-night stay. The front desk comped the breakfast, which was kind. A partial refund for unused nights would have gone further, but wasn’t offered.

Sehr nettes Personal, große Zimmer und leckeres Frühstück. Sehr schöne Lage

Breakfast was Amazing, a lot of choices, The Room Was Warm and cozy

This place was not what I expected reading about it. Check in was fine but the person at the reception insisted we leave our shoes in the front. They do not provide courtesy slippers and so we had to walk in our socks to the room. They have a motley basket of slippers, which I’m not wearing! God knows whose feet were in them before me. Half were grungy travel slippers. The room had no shampoo or conditioner. Hot water took awhile to come. As we were the only people, the staff had breakfast setup in a small frig in the dining room. We could have it anytime between 7-10 am! This place had more dos and don’t s than amenities. At least the bed was clean and we could sleep for the night.

Die Zimmer waren ausserordentlich schön und sauber. Das Personal kümmerte sich sehr gut um uns und war immer da. Wir kommen wieder :)

Convenient

Hotel is very dated. The room looks different from the photos.

Beautiful setting, very nice place but too many rules. Also, be forewarned, no televisions in the room and the lounge tv is large but on such a low volume that it is practically worthless. Nice breakfast.

The owners were so friendly and welcoming…they want you to feel like family. It was genuinely a wonderful stay!

Wow. Absolutely excellent hotel. We stayed in one of the private cabins. It was clean and beautiful and had everything you could need. Bed was comfortable and great views of surrounding area. Food at main hotel was delicious. Had dinner and breakfast. Recommend both. Staff exceptional. Great stop on our trip. Highly recommend!

My family stayed here for 2 nights while we explored the South Coast. The cabin we stayed in was very cute. The farmland surrounding the property was very peaceful. My only complaint was that I breakfast was not included in our stay, even though I thought the booking said it was. Also, the management was not overly helpful with local recommendations when I reached out to them.

The AC did not work at all and we could not sleep both nights. The owners response was to leave the windows wide open. We did not feel safe. The food is terrible. They would not even give me coffee to go. Bad property. Would not stay again.

Really great place. The setting is beautiful. A horse farm. The service was excellent. Didn't have dinner there but I should have because breakfast was amazing. Maybe 50 different items. Will hopefully stay again.

Vi var tre jenter på tur og hytta var helt perfekt for oss. Hytta var nært Reykjavik og attraksjoner på sørkysten, og var en fin størrelse med alt vi trengte. Favoritt delen vår med hytta, og det som overgikk forventninger, var utsikten og området. Hytta var omringet av hester, og det var utrolig idyllisk og de utover horisonten og de dem løpe og kose seg. Det var også noen gårdskatter som vi fikk besøk av. Eneste klagen er at kjøkkenutstyr ikke alltid var helt rent, men vi går ut i fra at det er pga. folkene som bodde der før oss. Ellers var alt supert!

Scenic and quiet

Super Unterkunft, würde immer wieder kommen war schon das zweite mal

No AC. Shower did not have shower lip to contain water. Water went all over bathroom while showering due to slow drain. Was unable to squeegee bathroom completely, even with multiple tries. Sulfer smell throughout room due to water not draining in bathroom. Was unable to use hot tub due to it not being warm. Decent breakfast - good yogurt bar. No shoes in hotel.
