Rent an Icelandic home & live like a local
Our goal is to provide travelers visiting Iceland, a simple and easy-to- use site to search, find and book a home away from home in Iceland. Tell us where in Iceland you wish to stay and we will try our very best to assist you.
A team of friendly & dedicated staff, with many years of experience in tourism are ready to help you and we will reply to your request within 48 hours. Hotels are much the same all over the world but privately owned homes reflect the culture of the city in which you find yourself. Stay with us and live like a local while you are in Iceland!
The best part about us is that you don’t have to spend an enormous amount of time searching among multiple websites looking for the right place to stay. We have assembled an extended selection of accommodation for rent. We also have comprehensive local knowledge and can therefore provide advice about many recreational and community services available in Iceland. Rent is also a certified Booking office and can therefore book everything for you.
RENT HELPS YOU FIND YOUR HOME AWAY FROM HOME!
