Picturesque Cabin w/ transparent bubble room, hot tub, & private covered patio.

Located in one of the nicest surroundings and warmest areas in the south. Near the famous Valley of Thor-Thorsmork, a favourite of the locals and the popular Seljalandsfoss the waterfall you can walk behind. The IG Eyja Mörk cabin is a place of opportunities to explore the nature of Iceland and the most popular tourist destination within an easy reach. The cabin provides accommodation with free private parking, very secluded garden, great darkness for experiencing the northern lights, balcony with view to the exotic Westman Island, a BBQ and an area with a view to Thorsmork and the mountain range of Tindfjoll and Stori and Litli Dimon as well as the big river Skafta. The house features 2 cosy but small bedrooms, a warm living room with a view to the very well known Eyjafjallajokull the volcano that closed all air traffic in Europe back in 2010 when it erupted. But, do not worry, it is well out of reach for us and has never done harm in this area, luckily. Also, the cabin has a flat-screen TV, a fully equipped kitchen with a microwave and a fridge, and 1 bathroom with a shower.

A bit of peace in an out of the way spot in the south of Iceland
This is a friendly, funky little cabin with some unusual amenities. We loved the sunroom and enjoyed being able to be "outside" but still have some protection from the wind and the rain. We checked out the bubble room, but with the wind and the rain no one in our group opted to use it--but it is probably a great place to check out the northern lights when it's dark enough. The main cabin had the amenities we needed, but there was no freezer (so we had to eat our desert early) and several lights were out. Having a dryer in the cabin was very welcome after a very wet day. This was our first trip to Iceland, and we used this location as our home base seeing the south coast. With 6 in our party, we were using both bedrooms and the futon to make sure everyone had a place to sleep. The cabin is small, but everyone had a comfy spot to sleep and a chair to sit in. I'd stay here again.

Book this place now!
Absolutely loved this place! I was a little worried it would be too small but it was perfect for my family of four (two parents, teen and adult child). We spent nights around the fire in the extra outdoor patio space with walls to cut the wind and an additional heater if needed. The kids were obsessed with the heated bubble bedroom and at night you couldn’t even tell you were in a bubble - it just looked like woods and open sky. Location was perfect for exploring Vik, Vestmannaeyjar Island, Reynisfjara Black Sand Beach, many waterfalls and more. There is a pretty rough dirt/gravel road you need to take to reach the property, but if you go slow you’re fine. Host gave tons of great info and was there to greet us and walk us though the property when we arrived. He was easy to reach and responsive when we had questions. Book this place! You won’t regret it!

Amazing accommodations near a beautiful waterfall
This property is spacious, relaxing, and gorgeous. It has everything you need and the property manager, Stefan, is very friendly and helpful. We spent the first 2-nights of our 7-night Iceland stay here and loved every minute of it! The bubble was amazing to stay in and we were very happy to have beds in the house as a backup, although we didn’t use them. The house has a grill and a soaking tub as well, which we enjoyed. Thanks so much, Stefan, for contributing to our amazing honeymoon!

A lovely stay in a rural area. So close to Thorsmork and such a beautiful area to explore. A full kitchen was perfect, since other dining options were further away.

Beautiful place with lots of things to entertain
This place is nicely decorated and very comfortable. There are lots of entertainment after finished a day out like an outdoor hot tub, sleep in a bubble to see the night sky, outdoor sitting area with a gas fire pit. Kitchen has plenty of cooking supplies and grinded coffee available. The only thing is the sound proof of the bedrooms is insufficient you can hear people using the washroom due to the washroom is between the two bedrooms.

Cozy cabin for family of five
We had a great stay at Stefan’s cabin. It was in a great location to explore the sites around Vik, Skogafoss, Heimaey, and super close to Seljalandsfoss waterfall. The kitchen was well equipped. It was a bit of a squeeze (one of the bedrooms hardly fits a small double bed), with little space to put our things. The dryer is broken, but there’s a wash and dry cycle on the washing machine that worked well. If you’re traveling in summer months and planning to use the sofabed in the living room, know that one of the windows has no shades, so plan to bring a good eye mask. Overall would recommend this place.

Cozy cottage centrally located on the South Coast
Very homey and comfortable, this cottage was perfect for the four of us (two adult children, my wife and me).. Easy trips east and west to cover the popular South Coast sites, plus a nice secret waterfall nearby. Having a full kitchen was a big plus. Very private.

Haus ok, Hot Tub prima, transparente Kuppel nur ein naja
Man achte auf jeden Fall auf die Anfahrtsbeschreibung und verläßt sich nicht auf Google Maps. Die Postadresse aus der Anzeige im Navi führte nämlich am Ferienhaus vorbei. GPS-Daten als Adresse würden allerdings auch helfen. Wir haben den Hot Tup wirklich genossen und konnten sogar die Aurora Borealis in der Wanne sitzend genießen. Die Transparente Kugel ist irreführend, denn transparent sind lediglich ca. 40 Prozent der Kuppel, nicht wie auf dem Foto gezeigt. Ansonsten ist es eine Mini-Traglufthalle, die wir ob der Diskrepanz mit dem irreführenden Foto nicht nutzen mochten. Der Kontakt mit der Vermietung war freundlich, führte aber zu keinem Preisabschlag. Dennoch haben wir unseren Aufenthalt genossen, hätten uns allerdings über eine reale Präsentation der Kuppel gefreut und so ist auch das Preissegement nach unserer Auffassung nicht ganz gerechtfertigt.
