Aurora igloo was an amazing experience. It was so quiet, the scenery was serene and one had plenty of privacy. The bed was comfortable with fluffy down comforters and a mattress warmer. The location is a short distance from landmarks like glaciers, puffins and waterfalls. A few restaurants, gas station and grocery stores are also a short drive nearby. Just up the street is Hella Caves, which was a unique tour here.

Unique experience and tranquil view of horses
What a unique experience! Views of the horses and landscape made for a relaxing and tranquil stay. Would recommend you keep most of your belongings in the car and just plan to change, shower, etc in the communal area.

Unreal experience! Sleeping under the stars in a cozy glass igloo was pure magic. Warm, comfortable, and truly once-in-a-lifetime. Highly recommend!
Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication
Unique stay experience. Our kids were totally charmed. The downside is that the igloos function like greenhouses so it was very hot in the day and afternoon. They do have air conditioning, which helps. But still very hot.
The view and the space are amazing, but they forgot to provide us towel. They have AC and heater so the guests can adjust the temperature.

Magical, unique Iceland stay!
Overall magical stay! Cloudy weather for us but incredible views, you could see horses, sheep nearby. Coffee maker and mini fridge in room were helpful. Bed was comfy. Eye masks and earplugs provided were a nice touch. Sometimes hard to keep the flies out so def had to kill a few. One of the comforters was slightly stained. Easy to find off main road and close to gas stations and few restaurants. Great and would absolutely recommend a stay here!

It was an incredibly unique experience with amazing views of the country side and the midnight sunset! The igloo was plenty spacious for two people and more private than you think. Easily cooled or heated, but be careful of the morning sun heating the igloo up! Highly recommend you give it a try!

It is a place like no other. Very cool concept and off grid but close to nearby town location. Few Icelandic attractions 30 minutes away. Waterfalls and DC3 wreckage.
Very clean and well organized amenities. Nice showers, hot water, espresso-coffee machine to start the day with your favorite one. Igloos are fantastic, comfortable bed and fresh, crisp white bed linen. With the right weather seeing northern lights would be magical. Self checkin and checkout and very responsive, english speaking staff if you had any questions..
Absolutely recommend for tourists looking for something different from a typical hotel..

It was a unique hotel and as advertise many of the questions don’t really apply to this type of experience.
