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. Easy to find. Great shower. Nothing around the guesthouse, but a very good restaurant not too many miles away at a local hotel.

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.

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.

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.
