This place was incredible. Very welcoming owners / staff. Stunning location across the road from a lagoon with a waterfall coming over the cliffs out the back. The room was warm, spacious, comfortable, homely, very well equipped kitchen and amazing bathroom. Great tips on the area and the cutest friendly dog. Would love to stay again, thanks so much!!

Staying at The Garage in Iceland was absolutely amazing! The place was perfect—immaculately clean, cozy, and thoughtfully designed. The host was incredibly responsive and went above and beyond to make us feel welcome (the cookies were such a sweet touch!). The views were out of this world—breathtaking mountains, waterfalls, and stunning Icelandic landscapes right outside the window. It was the perfect base for exploring the area, and we couldn’t have asked for a better experience. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone visiting Iceland. It’s a true gem!

We had a wonderful stay at The Garage! Anna was so welcoming and informative. We felt very comfortable. The room was clean. The hot tub was lovely. We explored the surrounding area the next morning which was interesting.

We had a lovely stay at the Garage! Everything was perfect from the moment we arrived until the second we checked out. Very comfy room and great nights sleep. Was extra special because of the great view of the Northern lights! Thank you for everything. Our room and bed were very comfy and well equipped with everything you need. We Especially loved Ana’s chocolate chip cookies and the great display of the Northern lights!

We had an incredible time at The Garage during our Iceland trip. It is close to several attractions, including Skogafoss, Seljavallalaug Zwembad, Vik and Reynisfjara. The owner of the farm is incredibly kind, check in is a breeze, and the rooms are incredible - good size, great bathrooms with showers, amazing view outside your room with your own patio (at least for some rooms). We got a 2 bed futon room, and the futon was already set up for us. In the lobby, there were free pastries provided. The decor in the rooms and the building in general are homey and cute and there are little fairy tale/rat motifs in the room. There is a super informative and charming packet in the room written by the owners with a bunch of suggestions about what to do nearby and includes their own story, and the property has a waterfall, hot tub, and sheep and dogs on the property. The dogs will run up to the patios in the mornings and you can run and play with them, and the sunrise view is beautiful over the sea.

This was an amazing place to stay at. Me and my fiance arrived very late in the night, past their usual check-in time, and the owner was there to greet us and check us in. They even had homemade baked goods to offer us. The rooms were absolutely what we needed for the night; a big bathroom and shower, a kitchenette with coffee and tea options. The morning was just as good as the room comes with a walkout patio that faces the mountains and sunrise. I would highly recommend this place for the views and hospitality provided.
