Luxury House with Hot Tub close to Snæfellsnes National Park, Iceland top five

Our house, Bakki, is the perfect base for your Icelandic holiday. Have a memorable day at Snæfellsjökull National Park, visit a natural hot spring like Deildartunguhver, or amazing waterfall like Hraunfossar. Other interesting places to visit are, the active volcano Grábrók, the crater Eldborg, historical viking landmark Reykholt, and taking a walk into the glacier Langjökull. You can stroll through the nearby cozy town of Borgarnes and drop by the cafe’s, museums, shops and restaurants. Take a drive to the capital Reykjavík with all its glory, nightlife and culture. Make a day trip on the Golden Circle and see the exploding Geysir with all its natural power, and drop by the historic Thingvellir National Park, and view close up the beautiful Gullfoss waterfall. In the evenings you will always come back home to this modern architecturally designed house in Helluskógur and the first thing you might do is, relax in the hot tub and enjoy the views or the Northern Lights in the peace and quietness after a memorable day.

The house has an open kitchen-living room with a large kitchen island. It is very spacious and ideal for family and friends preparing a good meal together. The kitchen has all necessary tableware and high quality equipment for cooking and baking. The living room has floor to ceiling windows and an amazing view. Even if you are inside it feels like you are still completely connected to nature. In the living room you will find books and magazines to read, films to watch on the large flat screen TV. The bedrooms are cozy and comfortable with high quality beds and a beautiful view. The main bathroom is spacious with a long wooden countertop and a large shower room.

The design of the house is outstanding and well thought out. It has floor to ceiling windows, open space, hardwood floor, natural stone tiles, designed lighting and with one of the most advanced and environmentally friendly floor heating systems installed in houses today. The heating system is perfect and we can guarantee you a warm and cozy house in the winter time. The house is designed by one of our best architects, Sigurður Hallgrímsson who designed many of our spectacular modern houses in Iceland.

On the large patio surrounding the house is a nice hot tub that fits up to 7 people, outdoor shower, outdoor kitchen with a barbecue grill and comfortable outdoor seating.

Beautiful home in a beautiful location
We went to Iceland to try to catch the Northern Lights and were blessed to have been able to see them from this beautiful home! We enjoyed the well stocked kitchen, spacious design, and comfortable furniture! We didn't use the hot tub as we expected to but hit up the (sort of) nearby Krauma hot springs. We really appreciated our AWD with studded tires as the road to the home was very icy on many days. Everything was as expected and advertised. Thank you so much for allowing us to stay in your beautiful home!

Wonderful modern house
The house is timelessly modern, clean and very well equipped. It is in a remote location with little light-pollution, ideally to watch northern lights - if there are. The host is very responsive and easy to communicate with. We'd love to come back if we have the opportunity!

Lovely Property
We loved the house! From the design to the amenities and the hosts with high attention to detail everything was great. We were a group of 6 women and used the house as a hub to go out exploring each day. The hot tub was a treat at the end of our daily adventures. Also, the beds and pillows were very comfortable. Note that one shower is outside, which I may have missed When reserving. The cooktop was a bit challenging for us so my only suggestion would be to have very detailed instructions like there are for the other household appliances. That being said, we would return!

Outstanding home
Wonderful home in a great location to see many sights in Iceland. The house itself is top notch. Clean, modern, all the amenities and more of home. It was perfect for the family. Also I want to point out the heated floors and….the outdoor shower. Trust me. It’s a must. The water is perfect, the air is divine. You really won’t want for anything staying there. The owners make sure you are ready for your stay in Iceland - going well above by providing valuable information and suggestions. Can’t say enough great things. And if you’re a runner- you’ll thank Iceland everyday for the paths around the place.

Amazing home in West Iceland
I recently stayed here with a group of 5 adults and one toddler, and we all loved our time in this house. The location feels remote, but is convenient to Borgarnes and is an excellent home base for exploring West Iceland. The house is both modern and very comfortable. Our host was responsive and friendly over messaging. I would certainly stay here again!

This house was perfect!
Our family spent 2 nights here while we explored the Snaefellsnes peninsula. Location was great, house was very clean and well supplied. Beds were very comfortable and the hot tub was an added bonus after a long day! We would absolutely stay there again.

This place is beautiful. Has the perfect layout for a small group, great amenities, and is secluded and quiet, while still not too far out of town. Would definitely go back again.
