We loved Hestasport Cottages! The hot tub was very relaxing. The property was wonderful and it was so nice having our own private cottage after staying in many cramped guesthouses and hotels.

The interior of our cottage was comfortable and full of amenities. And what really addedto the vibe was the hot tub in the center of the cottages. No luck with the northern lights due to clouds drifting in, but it was a lot of fun anyway.

The cottage was really nice and large. Much better than the hotels we stayed at. The only thing was the shower water was a bit smelling of sulphur but they were upfront about that.

We loved the hot tub in the middle of the cottages. Very nice cabin that came fully stocked with pots, pans, dishes, towels, bath robes, and several sizes of crocs to walk to the hot tub in. Spacious and comfortable.

Our stay here was amazing! It was SO clean, quiet, and private. The communication with the host was fantastic and the cabin exceeded our already high expectations. The hot tub was perfect despite -8 degree C weather, and the northern lights made a spectacular unforgettable experience.

Very nice cabin. Had some difficulty finding the cabin. Sulfur smell in the water was off-putting, but not a deal breaker. Hot tub was great.

The cottage was charming, spacious and very clean. The bed was very comfortable. The kitchen was really good, four burners, an oven and cookwear in good condition. Everything was very well organized including a QR code at reception to load directions to the cottage into google maps and another QR code n the cottage to join the internet which was fast and reliable. Highly recommended.

This was the most expensive place we stayed in Iceland but also the best. The cabin was terrific and comfortable, the hot springs delightful, and the horse ride we booked at a discount was terrific. We really appreciated the attention to recycling and the good communication with the management.
