This place is everything you need. Such a beautiful location on the coast and a great place to see the northern lights. The woman who owns these properties was extremely friendly and accomadating. I wish we could of stayed here more nights then we did. Due to its closeness to the airport I highly recommend you make this a stop at the beginning or end of your trip and I promise you will not regret it.

It is a nice little cabin equipped with a hot tub. The check in and check out policy were easy to follow. Nice view and with well equipped kitchenette.

Being warm and cosy while there's a blizzard outside, feels great! The host is kind and helpful and responsive. If you're after a peaceful and calm stay, away from city lights, you won't be disappointed. We've enjoyed our stay here, and if we ever decide to visit Iceland again, we'd definitely check availability here first. Please be aware, during Christmas, nearly all shops/restaurants were closed in Iceland, even in Reykjavik. You can only purchase alcoholic drinks from the airport and government regulated shops(which were closed during XMas as well and are very hard to find). And lastly, Rent a car, buses don't run that often, taxi is way tooooo expensive.

Thanks Katrín for being the best host ever ????

We had a fantastic stay, it was more than accommodating for our group of 7. The hot tub was a fantastic touch.

We visited iceland for our honeymoon and wanted a location that was private and cozy while also being relatively close to things. Our cabin was wonderful and we were so close to the coast that I could see the waves in the morning. Reykjavík is only a 45 minute drive away and there are plenty of other smaller towns with exciting things to do in them. The property owner was very accommodating and nice. The kitchen has a small fridge, stovetop, microwave, and small toaster oven along with spices, oils, coffee, tea, etc. The hot tub was our favorite part, it is fed from a natural source and you fill it with fresh water each time you want to use it. There is little to no light pollution so we were able to see the auroras on three of our nights there. Definitely would recommend Ocean Break Cabins to anyone looking to relax during their iceland vacation!

Must have a car to reach this destination, which was no problem for us because we had a car hire/rental. There is no public transit service or if there was one, we did not see it pass through.

We stayed in Cabin 5D which had a separate bedroom and a sofa bed in the living area which is open to the kitchen. Whomever has the sofa bed in the living area will not have privacy, so head's up if you are booking this cabin. We knew this when we booked, but I imagine if someone did not do their research, they'd be uneasy with the lack of privacy. My travel mates would make coffee early in the morning and the sound carried through the cabin while I slept on the sofabed but I did not mind.

There are black-out roller shades but the sides are not completely sealed so it is recommended to bring an eye/sleeping mask. Also bring earplugs because if your travel mates snore, you will not get any sleep. The birds can be quite noisy too :)

The cabin interior is clean and well-stocked. There is a small fridge which came in handy to store our groceries for meals. Kitchen was stocked with dishes, cutlery, and utensils. There is a kettle, some ground coffee, sugar, and a coffee machine with filters. The undersink had a small bin for green garbage (food scraps), a bin for recycling (glass and plastic), and a bin for "clean paper" (perhaps paper towels that have only been used for wiping up water, and newspaper). There was no bin for garbage, except for a very small one in the bathroom – it fills up fast when you have multiple guests staying for a few days or more.

The hot tub does not have jets, which I loved. It fills up with very hot geothermal water which can burn you if you're sensitive to high temperatures, so be careful. It takes 45 minutes to fill up. Very easy to work.

I noticed that when the neighbouring cabin (5C) would fill up their hot tub, the water pressure for our cabin (5D) would lower. So if you happened to shower while they were filling their tub, you'd have a weak shower experience. Not a problem, I just waited 45 minutes until I needed to shower. Just a small inconvenience. The rest of the time, the shower had good pressure and heated water up very fast.

In the bathroom, I wish there was more counter top space; they could add a cabinet or open bookshelf to help with temporary storage of guests' toiletries. We were a group of 3 so we wish there were more hooks in the bathroom to hang towels/wet swimsuits.

It only occurred to us when we arrived that our cabin (Cabin 5 C/D) was semi-detached so we had another guest next door and we could hear them open/close their front door (and they could definitely hear us as well). It was not a bother as the guests were quiet and respectful.

The cabins are located next to a golf course, so when I was in the hot tub late at night in the summer, I could see golf enthusiasts still playing. There is no "view" of the ocean – you'd have to take a long walk closer to the shore to see anything, but you can definitely smell the ocean scent and hear the birds.

Guests should be warned that these cabins are built near birds' nests and during nesting season (summer) the birds can be very territorial and will act defensively if you are walking too close to their nests (which are in the ground because there are little to no trees in Iceland).

There is no air conditioning but opening the windows and doors to let in the fresh air was nice.

Overall, the experience was positive and I would absolutely return!

Schlüsselbox an der Tür; helle schöne Doppelhütte. Einfach zu erreichen. Nur der Wind war zu hören, herrlich. Schön abgelegen an einem Golfplatz- 10 Minuten zu Fuß bis zum Meer. Hütte komplett mit allem eingerichtet. Verpflegung muss man sich mitbringen oder noch einmal losfahren
Unkomplizierte Kommunikation mit dem Vermieter

The perfect location near the airport - but it feels like you are very remote. The cabin was cute, cozy and clean and just the right size for 4 adults. We loved the view. Our son enjoyed the hot tub too.

Just a wonderful little cabin near the ocean! Perfect for our family of four with a 9 year old and 12 year old. I wish we had a few more days to spend at this place and in Iceland. Very clean and we loved the hot tub!

Remote seaside cabin(s) on short distance of the airport, 10min drive to/from the airport. Stayed in Cabin 5C for 2 nights, used the hottub one time and it really is an addition to the cabin! Tub was filled within an hour and stayed warm for atleast 2 hours despite the harsh winds. You could really tell the cabin was kept clean and well, fully equiped kitchen and bathroom was excellent! Shower cubicle was quite slippery when wet so maybe a tip for next time to put in an anti-slip mat or something? But overall a great stay and would definitely recommend them! Even got their own Netflix so you don't have to hassle with your own, check-in and check-out was flawless.

We booked one of the cabins at the last minute for the night before our departure from Iceland. The cabins felt secluded even though they were only 15 minutes from the airport. The cabin was spacious enough for 3 adults, and we appreciated having a small kitchen to make our dinner. The people who handled the bookings were quick to respond and gave us all the info we needed for a smooth check-in. From the photos on the website, we though the cabin was a stand-alone unit, so I was surprised when we saw that our cabin shared a wall with another unit. Thankfully we did not hear our neighbors and had a good night's sleep.

Excellent cabin with amazing sunset views, on a golf course if that's your thing, 15 minute drive to the airport, 45 minutes to Reykjavik, great responsive host - literally nothing to complaint about. You will definitely enjoy your stay.

Alloggio molto bello e curato, con tutti i comfort: lenzuola, asciugamani (non scontato in Islanda), phon, stoviglie e il necessario per the, caffè (anche con una ottima moka), persino Netflix. Sul terrazzo c'è una vasca privata che in pochi minuti si riempie di acqua bollente, per rilassarsi guardando le stelle o o il tramonto a dispetto del freddo.
I cottage sono un po' isolati con una bella vista sul sul tramonto. La posizione è comoda per stare nei pressi dell'aeroporto, è una ottima soluzione per visitare Reykjavik o gestire partenze in orari scomodi. Katrin, la host, è super disponibile. Pulizia impeccabile.

Idéalement situés, proche de l'aéroport, un endroit parfait où passer la première ou la dernière nuit de votre séjour.
Accueil très sympathique et le hot pot est très appréciable.
En hiver, les chalets étant loin de tout, il est possible d'y observer des aurores boréales (si les conditions sont bonnes)

Petit chalet au milieu des champs, GPS Obligatoire. A l'arrivé le propriétaire vous accueil ou après un appel, il est sur place rapidement. Chalet bien équipé avec cuisine et salle de bain. La propreté de la SDB pouvait être mieux. Le Jacuzzi est au top (faite attention à ne pas mettre trop chaud). Départ libre sans passer au check out, vous payé à l'arrivé. Prévoir de prendre à manger à la superette de la ville car seul 2 restaurants sont disponible (fin de service à 21H). Pizzeria à éviter.
