Location & Nearby

Snaefellsjokull Apartments are located in a former US Coast Guard base in Gufuskalar farmland in Snaefellsbaer town. This farmland area was a key fishing center in West Iceland before being abandoned in the 1940s.

Today, guests can still see ruins of fishing huts and storage sheds near the accommodation, slowly reclaimed by nature. These views will excite nature lovers and those interested in Icelandic history.

On one side of the apartments, a panoramic view of the Atlantic Ocean welcomes you. Conversely, an expanse of lava fields and the glacier-capped Snaefellsjokull volcano, where the accommodation got its name, dominate the scenery on the other side.

Snaefellsjokull Apartments make an ideal base for travelers exploring the attractions in the Snaefellsnes Peninsula and the Snaefellsjokull National Park. The peninsula is known as “Iceland in miniature” because of its diverse landscapes, from towering mountains to picturesque villages and beaches.

Mount Kirkjufell, one of the most beautiful mountains in Iceland, is just 22 miles (35 kilometers) from the apartments. The fame of this Icelandic mountain is thanks to its prominent peak and appearance on the hit television show Game of Thrones.

Not far from here is the Budir black church, one of the most photographed churches in the land of fire and ice. This black church stands out amongst the lava fields and vegetation surrounding it.

Meanwhile, the nearest villages to Snaefellsjokull Apartments are Hellisandur, Olafsvik, and Arnarstapi. Restaurants, cafes, grocery stores, and rock formations in these villages are accessible throughout the year. For example, the Kassinn supermarket in Olafsvik is just a 10-minute drive.
