Beautiful place. Great location from airport. A lot better than booking separate rooms for family. Highly recommended and will definitely be back

Apartamento espaçoso e bem decorada. Como chegamos depois da meia-noite não nos cruzamos com a anfitriã mas trocamos várias mensagens até à chegada, pelo que não tivemos qualquer problema em entrar no apartamento. Sentimo-nos em casa!

Welcome to The Lava Bowl Bungalow a unique home in the heart of Iceland's most fascinating volcanic landscape. Originally our family home, The Lava Bowl has been lovingly renovated and transformed into a comfortable retreat for guests who want to experience the Reykjanes Peninsula up close. Located in Grindavík, just minutes from the world-famous Blue Lagoon, the house offers a rare opportunity to stay surrounded by dramatic lava fields, ocean views, and the powerful forces that continue to shape Iceland. The house comfortably accommodates families and groups, with three spacious bedrooms, a large bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen, and a cozy living area designed for relaxation after a day of exploring. One of our guests' favourite features is the private hot tub, where you can unwind under the midnight sun in summer or beneath the northern lights in winter. What makes this location special? • The Blue Lagoon is only a few minutes away. • Unique volcanic landscapes and recent lava fields are right on your doorstep. • Hiking trails, ocean views, birdlife, and beautiful nature can be explored throughout the area. • Keflavík International Airport is only about 20 minutes away. Grindavík has experienced significant changes following the recent volcanic activity. Some local services and opening hours may vary, but the town remains a remarkable place to visit and witness one of the most extraordinary geological events in modern Icelandic history. As your host, I love helping guests discover the area and am always happy to share recommendations, local tips, and favourite hidden gems around Reykjanes. Whether you're visiting Iceland for adventure, relaxation, photography, or simply to experience the power of nature up close, The Lava Bowl Bungalow offers a stay unlike anywhere else. I look forward to welcoming you!
Hi, I'm Anna! I'm a mother of three, animal lover, and proud local host. The Lava Bowl was once our family home before we moved to nearby Njarðvík when our family grew. Rather than sell the house, I decided to turn it into the guesthouse I had always dreamed of creating. This was our family home, and unlike many vacation rentals, it was originally designed to be lived in. That's why you'll find a warm, comfortable and welcoming atmosphere throughout the house I genuinely enjoy meeting people from around the world and helping them make the most of their visit to Iceland. My goal is simple: to make every guest feel welcome, comfortable, and at home. I hope you'll love The Lava Bowl as much as our family has over the years.
Grindavík is a unique coastal town on the Reykjanes Peninsula, surrounded by stunning lava fields, volcanic landscapes and the Atlantic Ocean. The Blue Lagoon is just a few minutes away, while Keflavík International Airport is approximately a 20 minute drive from the property. The area offers excellent opportunities for hiking, photography, sightseeing and experiencing Iceland's remarkable geology and nature. Guests can explore the surrounding lava fields, enjoy ocean views and discover one of the most fascinating regions in Iceland. Local cafés, bakeries and restaurants are available in town, although opening hours may vary.
