We have been travelling in Iceland for 3 weeks and have stayed in some outstanding (plus a couple of not quite outstanding) accommodations. The Lake House is by far our favourite. The view from the conservatory and the deck were exceptional. We decided to take a ‘rest day’ here to just enjoy the view, the peace and the hot pot. It was great having access to coffee, herbs and spices left by the owners to use in our meal prep. Access was very easy with the lockbox. The heating was already on for us which was greatly appreciated. Btw I loved the swans in the pond. 😂

I enjoyed this place twice, once on my own and again with my boyfriend; I specially appreciated the countryside (such a good spot for Northern Lights, beautiful both in winter and summer) and the services provided by the structure. The house was always clean and comfortable.

Akranes is a pleasant community within east driving distance to Reykjavik. Accommodations there are less expensive compared to the surrounding are but also are not as updated. There was one good sit-down restaurant in the town. The public swimming pool was nice and there a public geothermal baths on the beach there. When the fish factory opens, whole portions of the town stink of fish. If you are looking for more affordable accommodation for a one night stop, this town is a good option, but there is not much to see and do in the town itself.

Akranes is one of our favorite day trips from Reykjavík.

Akranes is one of our favorite day trips from Reykjavík. We usually take the bus out and back, although I could see it being a great longer stop for non-locals too. It is much quieter with far less tourist traffic than other towns around Iceland. The lighthouse is a delight. It is open to the public most days and has amazing acoustics. The lighthouse keeper invites folks to sing or play instruments and will happily accommodate musicians who want to record there! There are also wonderful beaches and a public pool by the ocean. The museum is also lovely. We walk the town for the trip, but I could see a car being useful as well.

The description should be more accurate; I thought I was renting a chalet with a separate bedroom as shown in the photos, but I only rented a studio apartment, which was a bit small for three adults. So, we were disappointed.

The town of Akranes was nice, there are 2 larger supermarkets in the town, so it was ideal for us, who lived in the solitude of the Móar Cottage accommodation, we saw the northern lights 2 nights in a row, it was an incredible experience and I highly recommend this accommodation. Otherwise, in the town of Akranes, the lighthouse didn't appeal to me much, it simply didn't enchant me at all.

It's a town about 50 km from Reykjavik, ideal if you don't want to pay the exorbitant prices of the capital. The town is practically deserted, but it has a supermarket where you can buy what you need.

This is a small town with absolutely nothing to do and absolutely no atmosphere. There's one bar in a hotel, and that's it. Even the so-called Irish pub is gone. The town is known for its cement factory, which is also very centrally located. This is definitely not a place to stay in beautiful Iceland.

Overall, the place is nice to stay for a short vacation. It has heating, hot and cold water, bathroom, shower, fridge, TV. It is in quite a remote area, so it is a very quite place. Two towns, Akranes and Borgarness are reasonably close. Also, there are many attractions around Hvalfjord and Borgarfjord. Reykjavik is around 1 hour drive away.

I loved the location, front-sea with wide green fields behind. Less than 10 mins by car from Akranes, not that far from Reykjavik. The guesthouse is elegant and clean, I appreciated the abundant disposable of towels for the guests. The kitchen's fully equipped. Mornings on the terrace are awesome!

Well-kept apartment, very clean. The hosts were super nice and explained to us what to visit in the surrounding area. The bathroom and kitchen are shared between two rooms, so not too crowded. The last but also one the best experiences in a Guesthouse in Iceland!

Cute little annex room with a good kitchen (hob, fridge, microwave). Nice location, however near a busier road compared to a lot of our other stays around the island.
