If I could rate it higher than 5 stars, I would!

I recommend Bay View to friends or family. It’s an unusual apartment for Iceland, it is quite big, super modern, very well equipped, in the kitchen you will find everything to cook and you can even charge your car for free overnight. It has an amazing view of the sea, yet despite all the wind, you feel warm and safe.

The owner is very responsive and helps with whatever you need. He prepped the hot tub in advance and helped set up the TV so we could watch the World Cup final. It’s very close to the airport, just a 10-minute drive, not far from the volcano hikes, and close to the Blue Lagoon.

This property was amazing and well appointed. Simple & elegant with all the amenities! Our family enjoyed our stay and were very comfortable. We enjoyed watching the birds in the morning and the electric lawnmower in the evening. This location is only 9 minutes from the KEF airport in a quaint town. The grocery is less than a minute away and the lighthouse 3 minutes. Wish we could have stayed longer!

Excellent base for exploring Iceland

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Bay View Apartments. The apartment was spotlessly clean, beautifully presented, and the beds were exceptionally comfortable after long days of exploring Iceland. Having a fully equipped kitchen, along with a washer and dryer, made our stay even more convenient and comfortable.

The location is an excellent starting point for discovering the Reykjanes Peninsula and the rest of Iceland, while still being close to the airport. Larus was a responsive, friendly, and supportive host who made the entire experience seamless.

We would happily stay here again and highly recommend Bay View Apartments to anyone looking for a comfortable and well-equipped base for their Iceland adventure.

The property was phenomenal. Situated roughly 10 minutes from the City of Keflavik and the airport, it is the perfect arrival or departure spot as it places you in immediate proximity to the airport. The actual property and amenities were new and meticulously maintained. We had various departures at staggered times to Dublin and the US so this location proved easy to navigate. The only downside is there isn't a convenient path/trail to stroll the ocean.
Bravo! - This was the nicest stay we experienced in multiple Iceland visits!

This was one of the nicest places I’ve ever stayed in. The unobstructed view of the ocean from an in suite hot tub was simply an amazing experience! The property was modern with good appliances and very well equipped with everything a traveller might need away from home. Lots of additional spices etc which was nice! Host was welcoming and checked in with us periodically to make sure we had what we needed. Hot tub was ready upon arrival so it was all very efficient. We would definitely want to come back to this place with a little more time!

Love the apartment, but the Jacuzzi/ hot tub wasn’t working and no one told me this was the case till we got there to try to spend about 30 minutes out at work to send you a message to tell me it was broken last week from somebody was staying there how much I spend for that weekend wasn’t cheap to find out when we are trying to work the hot tub. It’s not working and that was the main part of our stay. And that’s what we are looking for and our stay is a hot tub/Jacuzzi.

We booked Bay View Apartments for our last night in Iceland to be close to the airport. It is indeed close, just 12 minutes away by car. What we didn’t realize was how absolutely gorgeous this rental would be. It was totally luxurious; every room was impeccable, totally comfortable, beautifully crafted, and the design was top notch. Excellent value for money. Everyone in the family quickly decided that we only wish we had spent 2 full days there, to soak in the tub and stare at the sea. There is a grocery store close and the nearby town Keflavík has restaurants. The owner was very responsive by phone and came over quickly to show us how to fully open the windows. We’re all still dreaming of this rental.

It was in a beautiful setting. When we checked in, we immediately went out to look at the bay and saw whales. The next morning, while sitting in the hot tub, we saw whales and dolphins. What a beautiful view. We can’t wait to return to this property. The inside is immaculate and super modern. We loved our stay!!!

I would highly recommend the Bay View Apartment when considering places to stay in Iceland. My friends and I stayed in the villa and couldn’t be happier. From the excellent communication (sending a welcome message, checking in and asking if there was anything we needed, and bidding us a farewell), to the beautiful interior and spacious floor plan…the villa had it all. The beds were comfortable, the rain shower relaxing, and it has a washer and dryer! The only criticism we had is that we wished there was a bit more air circulation inside. Overall though, we couldn’t be happier with our stay.

My only complaint would be that we didn't stay here longer. It maybe a bit out of the way but SO worth the drive.

We spent our last night in Iceland with a night at the Bay View Apartments and it was a perfect way to end the trip. The apartment itself is beautiful. The view was gorgeous and everything was immaculate and also extremely comfortable. Having a nice long soak in the tub overlooking the bay was just exactly what we needed after many active days exploring the country. The hosts were very kind and detailed in their instructions and the whole experience from check in to check out was seamless. The apartment is very convenient to the airport (while feeling a world away from the hustle and bustle) and there are some interesting sights around if you are spending time in the area. I would love to come back some day!

Our stay in Iceland was nothing short of magical, and this property was the cherry on top. Every single detail was perfect — from the cozy, super-comfy bed to the dreamy hot tub under the stars. The shower was next-level amazing (seriously, we’re still thinking about it), and the hot water kettle was so great we bought one when we got home!

The location couldn’t have been better — nestled in the most charming and friendly little community. It felt peaceful, picturesque, and perfectly Icelandic. The house had everything we needed and more, making it feel like a home away from home.

We’re already dreaming about our next visit — hopefully to catch the Northern Lights. Can’t wait to come back!
