About this stay

Sefdalur provides a comfortable and independent stay just off Iceland's Ring Road, making it a convenient stop for those exploring the south-east. The apartment is designed for self-catering, featuring a well-equipped kitchenette and a dining area, perfect for preparing meals after a day of sightseeing. The furnished terrace offers a lovely spot to relax and take in the impressive views of the Vatnajökull Glacier. Its location, a short drive from Höfn, means easy access to local amenities while enjoying a peaceful setting.

Our take

Sefdalur is a good fit for couples and small families driving the Ring Road who want an independent base close to Höfn. The private entrance, kitchenette and furnished terrace make it feel like a small home, and the view of the Vatnajökull Glacier is the highlight. Free parking and WiFi cover the basics. At 7 km from the village it is a car-based stay, so anyone hoping to walk to restaurants in the evening should plan around that.

  • ✓Plan to stock up on groceries in Höfn before heading to the apartment for convenience.
  • ✓Take advantage of the furnished terrace for morning coffee with glacier views.
  • ✓Use the apartment as a comfortable base for day trips along the Ring Road to Jökulsárlón Glacier Lagoon.

Why we love it

Why guests love it

I recommend Sefdalur to families and couples who want a self-contained apartment near Höfn rather than a room in town. It sits 7 km from the village, with a private entrance, a kitchenette, a furnished terrace, free WiFi and free parking. The Vatnajökull Glacier is visible from the apartment, and the Ring Road is on the doorstep. Guests rate it 9.0 across almost 400 reviews, which suggests the bright, simple setup delivers.
