Amazing stay at the far end of the Golden Circle
So it’s my twins 21st birthday and I wanted to do something memorable. So I took them to Iceland and stayed at an amazing VRBO. Here are my top 3 reasons for 5 stars:
1. Location - it’s in a town that’s close to some of the main geologic attractions in Iceland (Gulfoss, the south coast, etc.). The town also has a supermarket and some surprisingly good restaurants (even a mushroom farmer who has a family restaurant).
2. The quality of the VRBO. Plenty of room for 5 adults in a new neighborhood with endless skyline views. Built in activities including a hot tub, cold tub, sauna, and outdoor shower.
3. Hidden surprises (in a good way) - we had a lot scheduled (white water rafting - 5 minutes away, a glacier hike - 1 hour away, and a visit to the secret lagoon - 5 minutes away). But the best part was that we had the morning free and we went for a hike on the mountain that we saw from our window. 15 minutes uphill and then a lake on top of the hill with views of numerous glaciers. You can’t beat it!!!
