Brandi
Beautiful stay and such friendly hosts. The rooms were spacious, clean and comfy. 5/5!
Larissa
We loved our stay at Loa’s Nest! The guesthouse is spotless and very well maintained. It is right off a main road and is in a convenient location. There are grocery stores and restaurant options nearby. The owner and staff are SO kind and welcoming. In the morning they provided coffee and made waffles with homemade jam. It was an amazing way to start our day. We would highly recommend Loa’s Nest!
Sean
We landed here after driving the golden circle to start our trip. The property is a little off the beaten path, but it's a wonderful spot. The building is solid, and even though it was windy and raining, you didn't feel like you were in storm. It was quiet, and the check in process was super easy. They even provided breakfast, which we unfortunately slept through. We would stay here again!
Stephanie
Loa’s nest was an excellent place to stay! Room was clean and guest area to cook was nice as well. The family who own the property were so sweet! Thank you for having us!
Saurabh
Had a great time at Loa’s Nest. Location was great but the best part was how friendly the owners were. Learnt a little bit about Icelandic culture and was an overall fantastic time. Would recommend!
Jack
Excellent waffles, wonderful hosts, and great rooms. We highly recommend this place.
Andre
Excellent for a 1 night stay while exploring Iceland's south coast.
Catherine
This was a favorite stay during our travels in Iceland. The location was so pretty and quiet, the rooms and common spaces were clean, and Unnur provided a lot of useful travelling tips and local knowledge. There were games available in the common area, and free breakfast waffles in the morning. The hosts were very friendly. I only wish we could have stayed longer!
Danyang
This is a family managed hotel. It located just couple minutes from Hella. The owner are very friendly and nice. The building and all utilities are very well maintained. The rooms and whole house are very clean.
Darry
The place was kept very clean and the waffles were delicious for our breakfast. Highly recommend
Gail
This guesthouse is an absolute gem. The house itself is on one level, with a gravel driveway (plenty of parking) and a short walk to the front door. The floors inside are smooth and lintels between rooms are minimal. There are no stairs. The house has a large common area with tables, sofas, and a fridge with space for each guest. There is a well appointed small kitchen with an oven and stovetop and plenty of pots, pans, and utensils. There are some board games and plenty of space to play. We chatted with other guests in the common area, it was just a very comfortable and friendly atmosphere. Decor is clean and modern, with a relaxed vibe. The scenery is gorgeous. The area is quiet. The room itself had a comfortable bed with good linens. The bathroom shower has no barrier on the floor so you could potentially roll in if needed. Hosts are friendly. In the morning they serve waffles! There is coffee and tea available as well. I wish the proprietors every success in the world, they have created a truly special place.
Marie-Annick
Amazing stay. Great waffles for breakfast!
Hildegard
This is a great place. Very peaceful and beautiful. The hosts are attentive to your every need from making sure you are comfortable to suggesting what to see in the area. We lived staying here.

Cozy environment, great free waffle breakfast and a great place to start your south coast tour!!
Cristina
Booked this hotel as a midway point between vik and the airport. It was extremely cute and clean. The location was perfect and we were actually able to see the northern lights from the hotel.
wanjun
The owner of the property is very nice. We didn’t expect that we would get free waffles in the morning. She also gave us many advices to explore the surrounding area. We learned a lot about the culture, the society and the folks of Iceland through the communication with her.
Mel
Owners are very friendly and attentive to guests. Great breakfast. Very clean property and spacious rooms. You have to drive to get to the area as it is a little off the hiway, but mostly everyone drives and does an roadtrip anyway in Iceland. Overall Great value for money.
Nicole
Beautiful room, extremely clean, and friendly hosts! The coffee and waffles were amazing! Note: We had excellent pizza about 10 minutes away for dinner- Gallery Pizza!
Paula
Many thanks to Ingolfur and Gergo for taking such good care of us and making us feel so comfortable and at home. We truly enjoyed our stay here at Lia's Nest. Your guidance helped us navigate our journey throughout our stay. Grateful to find such genuine folks and forever friendships
Regina
We said here two different nights and it was perfect! Big rooms, access to kitchen. One of our favorite stays
Stacy-Jo
Room was great. All one level and the waffles at breakfast - amazing! Easy parking and great restaurant not far with great pizza.

Loa's Nest was excellent. Clean, well organized and overall a great stay. Would definitely recommend.
Mark
Great experience, felt right at home.
Great location for the Golden Circle and Aurora hunting.
Host was super helpful, friendly, and communicative. Made guests waffles in the morning. You can store food in fridge or freezer. Kitchen is great for prepping own meals. Coffee and tea is available!

The rooms are clean, comfortable and affordable. The waffles for breakfast were delicious. This guesthouse is stocked with anything you need, including a communal kitchen and living space. We only had one hiccup when checking out of the accommodation but it was minor. We were in a rush to catch a ferry so I was a little stressed. Be prepared to show your Expedia full payment receipt.

Beautiful property with wonderful hosts. Probably our favourite spot we stayed at during our trip. Rooms were spacious and clean, with bathrooms. The area around the property is also beautiful. The cherry on top was the waffles in the morning! I would go out of my way to stay here again.

Very clean guesthouse! As soon as you walk in you get such a pleasant smell. The kitchen has some stuff you can use. The check in process was so easy. They don’t offer breakfast but they do offer free waffles, coffee and tea. Highly recommend this spot, I was very impressed. We stayed at other guesthouses and this one is the top one!!

Very nice owner and though breakfast isn’t provided, they serve freshly made wafers and coffee/ tea in the morning. The room is big and comfortable and the property is well appointed to see the Aurora. We could see some Icelandic horses next to the property.
Kari
A lovely well kept place to stay. Our hosts were wonderful and offered a google map with good places to stop and visit. The amenities of shared kitchen and main eating area were very nice. We highly recommend this accommodation.

A wonderful, quiet location with welcoming hosts who were so helpful in pointing out things to see and places to go! I would stay again!

Would definitely stay there again.
Very clean.

Great One Night Stay
Spent one night at Loa’s Nest. Everything was so clean! The waffles and coffee in the morning were such a nice treat to start our day. The hostel hosts and staff were so so kind. Would highly recommend! :)
Sylvia
Ok
Natasha
We loved our stay at Loa’s Nest! Only a short drive from the Golden Circle, this place was a great spot to escape the tourists and see more of the quiet Icelandic countryside. Rooms were spacious and quiet. Staff were lovely, greeting us with homemade waffles for breakfast in the morning. This was our first stop on our ring road tour and we would highly recommend to anyone passing through.
Sian
Great stopover! Well equipped kitchen to cook your own food and convivial dining room to meet other guests. Surprise bonus - the owner comes in to cook waffles for breakfast.
Cheuk Ling
The hosts were so kind. They woke up early to cook waffles for all the guest. Felt just like home!
Stacey
Clean, comfortable and very kind and hospitable hosts
James
Practical, friendly
Reasonable place overall. The hosts were kind and communicated well. Even though there wasn’t an on-site office, we had an issue in our room and they showed up within 5 minutes of reaching out about it. Was a great location for seeing the northern lights, we actually drove down the road a mile or two and sat by a waterfall and watched it. The morning breakfast was great. Overall, the setup is very basic, but it was a good value. We would stay again.
Tirso
5⭐️++
We had an awesome stay! My pictures look like it’s in the middle of nowhere. Very kind hosts- even gave us tips on how to check the roads for our travel. We made new friends as we eat together. Yummy waffles and homemade jam. 👍
Empire
My number one place to stay amongst many!
I have stayed in 20+ hotels in Iceland. This guesthouse is a shining beacon above every place I have stayed in Iceland, Scotland, England and Germany. I liked this guesthouse so much, that I changed my business plans so I could stay an extra night. I couldn’t bring myself to stay in another generic hotel further North in the city. Only a couple of miles off the main highway, it’s worth the journey. The peace of the location allowed me to sleep calmly for the first time in days. The owners are truly delightful human beings and they give the feeling of coming home to family after a hard days trekking across the countryside
Ashley
Watch out for the extra $
It was a nice clean room. Do not pay extra for a kitchen. Their ad is misleading and makes you pay more if you want a kitchen, but it's a communal kitchen- everyone has access, not your own personal kitchen as they make it out to be, so save your money and book the basic room.
Jack
Northern lights were spectacular, very nice place with all the amenities, welcoming hosts
Chris
Perfect guesthouse with nicest people
Nice guesthouse, very clean in a dark area great for seeing the northern lights. Owner was super nice made us pancakes in the morning. Has a full kitchen.You can cook your own meals plenty of cookware etc. Of our 10 nights in iceland at diff places, loa's was one of our favorites.
Christopher
Well built accommodations in quiet area with great night sky viewing opportunity. The breakfast waffles were delicious and the homemade rhubarb jam was the best!!
Bonnie
Nice location, very homey feel
Philip
Very welcoming.
Joanne
The room was spotless with all the amenities you need. Shared kitchen with dining area, tea, coffee, cocoa, games and comfortable seating area for relaxing and visiting with the staff and other visitors. We especially appreciated the owners making waffles for us all in the morning, with conversation and suggestions to enhance our visit in the area. Too many stays have no contact with the owners and we have missed the personal contact in the country we are visiting. Loa's Nest was the exception to this. Thank you for one of the best stays on our visit to Iceland.
Brenda
Thank you for a wonderful waffle breakfast. The space is new and fresh. We had a great sleep on the mattress.
Michael
Very knowledgable and friendly. Very clean, and well maintained.
Gudmundur
Perfect stay in the country side of iceland so many amazing places to see

Cleanest guesthouse I’ve ever seen- friendly staff
Very nice guesthouse- extremely clean. The kitchen is small but very well equipped. Waffles and interaction with the staff in the morning is a nice touch. Hosts are very friendly and love to share information about Iceland.
Definitely recommend and I would book again.

This is one of my favourite places I’ve ever stayed on any trip. Very comfortable. Amazing showers. Comfortable beds. Access to amenities to cook own food and make coffee and tea. My daughter said it was the best hot chocolate ever. In morning you have awesome waffles made for you. I am excited to come visit again!

Excellent choice for the Golden Circle
Excellent place, lovely hosts, easy to find, very clean and tidy room.
Mayur
One of the best stay experience ever. The owner lady Unnur, her husband and entire family are so helpful and welcoming. We stayed here only for one night but wished we could stay more. We are going to recommend this property to all our friends. In fact the next chance we get to go to Iceland we will stay at Loa's Nest.
Lynn
This was the best stay we had in Iceland. The building had been built by the owner for the specific purpose of a Guesthouse. Unnur, Ingi and Unnar were amazing in their welcome and caring for everyone who came to stay.
Wife, husband and son. Beds were so comfortable, fridge for use of guest with identifying spots for each room number, area around so peaceful in the countryside with horses right next door. Delicious waffles and homemade Rhubarb jam. Every attention to detail was perfection. I would go back just to stay here again.

DeAnna
Adorable and welcoming so you don’t want to leave
Our party consisted of six people in three rooms, and each room was warm and welcoming, a pleasant size, and with gorgeous views. The beds are comfortable, and while my pillows were not great for me, I cannot say that that is a problem of the hotel, as it is an issue I have everywhere I go. The bathrooms are a good size, and the showers are spacious, clean, and have fantastic water pressure. The kitchen and public lounge area is comfortable and conducive to conversation, and while it wasn’t until the last day of our stay here that we met our hosts, they were thoroughly friendly and welcoming. Being served cute waffles by Inge as he made them right in front of us was such a homey way to enjoy our breakfast, too. Honestly, we were gone all day and only returned to plop off to sleep, but this guesthouse made it truly feel like being at home, and we loved it. The only minor concerns one or two members of our group had were that there were no face clothes in the bathrooms, nor were there facial tissues. Quite minor issues, really. I would love to tell the world that this is a great place to stay, but part of me also wants to keep it “our wonderful secret,” it is that good.
Emily
Loa’s was the perfect place to stay to relax and explore the surrounding areas. Unnur and her family were amazing hosts and were very welcoming to all! Will definitely be back one day.

What a lovely and relaxing place to stay! The room was clean and comfortable, and the host was so friendly and helpful. We were pleased to find a large meeting/dining area where we could play cards, and also enjoy a delicious breakfast prepared by our host in the morning. The area is beautiful and bucolic. We enjoyed our stay here very much!

Loa’s Nest was perfect for our stay. Very nice clean, modern rooms and a great shared kitchen we could use for meal prep. The hosts made waffles for breakfast with their homemade rhubarb jam. Hosts were very friendly and helpful. Location is good for exploring the golden circle and southern Iceland.
Kostiantyn
It was our second time in Iceland and this is the best guesthouse we ever stayed. Warm atmosphere, very cozy and a separate thank you for waffles.
Lori
Wonderful farm stay!
We absolutely loved our stay at Loa's Nest. The parking is right outside the door. The owners were extremely friendly and the breakfast was excellent. We even saw the northern lights right from the doorstep. Highly recommended.
Abhijeet
We loved our stay here with my family. The property owners have very thoughtfully stocked the kitchen area with all kitchen gadgets so travelers can fix their own meals. The owners are very friendly and we enjoyed our stay here. The only nit is we couldn’t figure out the temperature control in the room (neither could a few other guests in adjoining rooms). It wasn’t uncomfortably cold, but would recommend leaving a set of instructions in the room for other guests. I’ll plan to stay here again in my future travels through this area.
Andrew
New property, rooms in excellent condition. Host was very nice to talk to and had tips for travellers.
Laura
Fantastic spot!
Wonderful place in a very quite location, only 5 km from the main road. The property has everything you need for a comfortable stay. Ingi and Unnur were great hosts. We really appreciate their attention to detail and kindness. The cherry on top: Waffles for breakfast ❤️
Gabrielle M
Loved the relaxed feel and getting to enjoy Unnur's waffles on the front porch, wrapped in a blanket he supplied. View of the fields was peaceful through our room's windows. Great local info in the common area. Best shower of all the places we stayed! Super comfy bed. Friendly and hospitable and easy to get to off Ring Road. Highly recommend.

We enjoyed our stay for many reasons: communication with the hosts was easy and effective; the reservation conditions were flexible and not binding -- a big plus for a traveler; the location was interesting for us: in the middle of countryside, farmland, and nature with a great view; everything was comfortable and thoughtfully prepared for guests; rooms have good sound proofing: we stayed close to the main \"living room\" and heard nothing either from the hallway or the neighboring room; the hosts are friendly and helpful -- gave us advice on local businesses, in my case on yarn shops. What's not to like? If you come to stay -- check out the waterfall down the road -- it is gorgeous at sunset.
Faren
Amazing guesthouse and amazing owners. Super friendly, helpful on where to go to see things, and made delicious heart shaped waffles. 10/10 definitely recommend.
