This was the best place that we stayed in Iceland. On a clear day, we can see the waterfall from our cottage. Bryndis and her staff were so easy to communicate with when we needed more household items. I highly recommend this place and we would rebook in a heartbeat.

Our stay was really peaceful. The location is ~2miles off of the main highway on gravel & we had a view of one of the larger waterfalls in the distance. Beds were comfortable. Pull out sofa was ok. Everything worked. Our sm 1 BR was well appointed. We stayed 2nts w/no issues. fyi: Hot water is not geothermal so there is a limit to the hot water usage. Check in was a breeze and there were ports to plug in an electric vehicle.

Comfortable, scenic, remote, limited hot water.

Very clean and comfortable accommodations, but quite small cabins. Hot water is limited, enough for one shower, need to wait 2 to 3 hours for another shower. No breakfast served and nearest food is about 10 miles away. Long gravel road to arrive, so remote off the main road in an already very remote area.

Very nice cabin with wide open views

Great place. It's got a great view even in the summer without northern lights to look at. It was comfy and everything was super easy for check in and check out.

Nice little cottage on farm land. The kitchen was a little small (little counter space) to make any large dinners, but space was large enough to make simple meals. Was clean and quiet and close to waterfalls. There was a 4K drive on a dirt road (in not the best condition) to get there, buit we had a nice stay

Very nice place. We had 4 adults in room which was a bit tight but manageable. Gorgeous views and very quiet . Manager responded immediately when we needed something. The only thing is no conditioner in the shower, not a big deal but just know that ladies lol

Very clean and comfortable

We had a very nice stay at the Bru Guesthouse. The location is close to a lot of attraction but feels secluded, with a nice outdoor space and even a grill. The cabin was very clean and comfortable, with good bedding. The only issue was the check-in process. We spent a good 30 minutes after we arrived sitting in our car and trying to figure out how to access our place, because none of us received an email that should have provided the cabin number and door code (there were 2 separate reservations). We had to look up our reservations through hotels.com and send a message (and the response is it can take a couple days to respond). Eventually the owner waved us over to his house to give us the info, and said his emails are blocked. I can only imagine how confusing this must be if you arrive at night and in the dark.

This place was situated in an open field. The windows allowed for optimum viewing and we were able to watch birds and see the moon come up right from our beds. So relaxing and exactly what we were looking for.

I think this property was great. The location fit our travel plans perfect. My only complaint is the door lock was the worst. So, as we are freezing trying to get in...the dead bolt will not work. 15 minutes later we get it open. As we get in, we find that your suppose to hold the handle up then turn the dead bolt. But...when we run to the waterfall we can not hold the handle up and lock the door. 15 minutes later it just somehow works. Please change locks and door handles. Otherwise...i'd give this place an excellent.

I love the little cottages, and the owners of the property were were helpful. When we got slow leak in the car tire they even helped us give the tire a pump. The only thing I think that needs improvement is that the internet connection is painfully slow and the television was an older model that we could not link to our phone to stream a movie
