“Asta and her family have been the perfect host.Very nice and helpful,we had the opportunity to meet at the airport for some minutes. This was our first swap,and both the house and the destiny were amazing Asta left some food in the fridge for us and also some maps and touristic information of Iceland.She was reachable when we needed her,and possitive and full of energy the house is a perfect base for exploring the island,as well as the capital,Reikiavik,only minutes away by car(that we also swapped) Kids were delighted with the swing,trampoline in the garden and also with Depill,their lovely cat that stayed with us those days. Iceland landscapes are stunning and worth a visit We did the tour of the island,glaciar walk,dog sledding,whale watching,two excursions with big wheels to explore the inner lands,lots of hiking,bathed in termal natural springs...We saw whales,seals,puffins,dolphins,lots of horses,sheep,...We met very nice people and keep wonderful memories of the trip Asta and Doddy left our house and car in a perfect condition,too 100%I would recommend this swap!! ”

About our home
A cozy retreat just 15 min from Reykjavik. Our lovely house welcomes you and your family. It's a warm 5 bedroom house, with 7 beds. It's located just outside of Reykjavík at Álftanes, Gardabaer. We have ocean, beaches and beautiful landscape all around us. Our community is like a small village in the country. Excellent place to have a great retreat. We have the community swimming pool and gym just around the corner, http://beiceland.is/alftaneslaug-thermal-pool plus the president lives practically next street from us in the beautiful presedential residence.
Iceland is truly a unique place, a must see. Contact us if you're interested. Let's see where it takes us.
