Storigardur Premium Apartments

Forty-kilometre views across Skjálfandi Bay open from Húsavík's hillside streets, and Storigardur Premium Apartments at 15 Stórigarður sit close to that rim, within walking distance of the harbour's whale-watching piers.

Self-catering apartments suit the rhythm of this town, where boat departures follow weather and wildlife rather than fixed schedules. A 9.5 rating across 284 reviews reflects the consistent standard of the units rather than any hotel-style service layer.

Húsavík anchors the Diamond Circle, the 230-kilometre loop taking in Ásbyrgi canyon, Dettifoss waterfall, and Lake Mývatn — all reachable as day trips. Northern lights are visible from the town between September and March without driving out.
