What guests think

At Welcome Holiday Home, guests praise the scenic south-coast setting near Skogafoss and the cozy cabins with handy kitchenettes, but many report stressful self-check‑in and communication issues, occasionally preventing entry or causing long delays at arrival.

The location is quiet, dark enough for stargazing or northern lights, and convenient for exploring the South Coast. Cabins are simple but functional, with compact bedrooms and basic kitchens; Wi‑Fi and mobile reception are unreliable. Cleanliness and maintenance are mixed, with many clean stays but some reports of dusty floors, worn linens, and occasional pests. Overall, expect scenic, self‑catering cabins suited to independent travellers.

The cottage itself was perfect! Clean and quiet. Contacting the owners to get into the cottage is another story. The will not email you the check in information 24hrs in advance, as stated. And do not expect a response until after 1600h on the day of check in. There is minimal/no wifi and also no cell service so you have to sit outside the hotel area and wait for a response as to which cottage you're staying in and what the code is. Wifi in the cottages is spotty at best, and didn't work at all for a good portion of our stay.

Cabañas prácticas, en sitio muy tranquilo, ideal, si cuadra, para ver la aurora boreal, y pasar una, dos o tres noches, como campo base para ver los alrededores, camino de tu siguiente destino. Cocina y baño más que suficientes y cama pequeña, en habitación sin armario. Te cambian las toallas todos los días. En mi caso, no tuve prácticamente cobertura móvil, ni de datos, y el WiFi funcionó bien la primera noche, pero se cayó bastante las otras dos que estuve.

First, we never got a promised email. We showed up and had to ask someone staying what we had to do to get the code. It is silly when you are using a code and key box to limit when you can check in. As others have mentioned, the linens where torn. The beds are soft and just foam beds. The shower leaked out into the bathroom. What more to say, I would never use this property again unless they fix things.

We weren't able to enjoy the geothermal pool based on mixed reviews on line. It was nice having our own space. It seems to be well maintained. Staff provided fresh towels and cleaned up a bit, we only stayed 2 nights and really didn't expect that. Would definitely stay again.

Unzureichende Sauberkeit und Erreichbarkeit des Anbieters. Für den Self-Check-In bedarf es eines Codes, welcher bei dem Anbieter der Häuschen telefonisch erfragt werden muss. Wir haben bereits eine halbe Stunde vor Ankunft angerufen, doch auch nach über 10(!) Anrufen, erhielten wir noch immer keinen Code, da die Anrufe nicht angenommen wurden. Nach einer weiteren Mail sowie einer WhatsApp-Nachricht erhielten wir dann nach ca. 1 Stunde unseren Code. Die Häuschen sind von der Idee ganz nett und für 1-2 Nächte eine coole Anternative, leider war unser Bett (in Haus Nr. 404) voller Bettwanzen (ich würde Bilder anhängen, wenn ich könnte). Das hat uns den Aufenthalt sehr versaut! Die Häuser an sich sind super hellhörig, weshalb man Nachts jedes Geräusch von Draußen hört.

Communication during check-in was unacceptable. There is no formal in-person process; you are instructed via email and onsite signage to call a phone number—a phone number no one answers. We had to wait nearly an hour before we received a pod number and code for the key. The pod itself was overpriced for what it was; water pressure was low, there was no WiFi, and the bed was small and without a frame.

Absolutely loved my stay here - the holiday home are based in such a picturesque location with the dramatic mountains surrounding you. Although the bedroom was a little on the small size, the bed was big enough and was perfect for me and my partner to settle into after a long day of driving. The holiday home had a lovely bathroom (with heating flooring) and a fully functioning kitchen providing a microwave which was very handy. We were due to receive a confirmation email 24 hours prior to arriving at the hotel with our own individual code to access our key to our cabin. However, I did not receive this code which meant I had to ring the contact number. Nevertheless, once the phone call was completed everything ran smoothly. I would highly recommend staying here as it was one of my most favourite locations during our travels around Iceland.

Beware!! Like other reviewers, we never received the email with check-in instructions and address, despite calling and emailing the property over 20 times. We were unable to check in and Expedia had to find us another hotel last minute. Wasted hours and hours of our trip trying to reach this property and almost ended up with nowhere to stay-would avoid at all costs. They never got back to us. The pictures look great but like others noted, this was a horrible experience for us.

The surroundings are Amazing and the place es ok to stay one night. But they have a terrible checkin system where you have to call them to get the code. They don’t have checkin after 9 pm so we had to cut our trip to run there and make it on time. We are foreigners, we can’t do calls , they should send the code through email as every other place ! We tried sending emails days before our checkin with no answer and we ultimately asked someone from our country to make the call because we couldn’t
