When to rent a villa in Southern Region

The Southern Region of Iceland is known for its unique and dramatic climate, where the weather can change rapidly and unpredictably. The summer months (June to August) are the best time to visit if you're looking for warmer temperatures and longer days, with average highs ranging from 12-15°C (54-59°F). This is also the peak tourist season, so you can expect larger crowds and higher prices for villas. However, it's worth considering a villa stay during the shoulder season (April to May or September to October), when the weather is milder and there are fewer tourists.

If you don't mind cooler temperatures and shorter days, winter might be an ideal time to visit Southern Region for a villa holiday. The snow-covered landscapes and frozen waterfalls create a serene and peaceful atmosphere, perfect for relaxation and rejuvenation. Just be sure to pack warm clothing and check the weather forecast before traveling, as Iceland's winters can be quite harsh. Additionally, consider visiting during the festive season (December) when the region is decorated with lights and Christmas markets pop up in various towns and villages, adding a touch of magic to your villa stay.
