Igloo was amazing! Dreamy to lay in bed watching the night sky! Incredible experience!!

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.

Staff was great. Very clean. Wonderful amenities. Grocery across the street. Amazing bakery two blocks away. 5 minutes from Sky lagoon. Would stay here lots.

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.

Unreal experience! Sleeping under the stars in a cozy glass igloo was pure magic. Warm, comfortable, and truly once-in-a-lifetime. Highly recommend!

This was such a great experience. I hardly recommend it. But get the igloos that have the private bathroom. Also, it’s impossible to unlock the door or lock the door without seeing a video of how to do it. Ask the hotel for this video before you get there. All the guests were coming to ask other guests how to get into their igloo because it was so confusing.

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.
Yan, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

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..

This was an amazing experience, even in the height of summer! It was the best place we stayed in during our trip! It was very clean, comfortable, and had such good attention to detail (included eye masks, ear plugs - though that was unnecessary since it was very quiet, and a nice note on where to get breakfast). The igloo was warm when we arrived because it was such a sunny day, but opening the vents made it a comfortable temperature in no time. During the night it did get cooler, and the heater was necessary. They also had heated mattress pads, which we didn't need, but I can see being great in the colder months. The private igloo is definitely the way to go, though with it's own bathroom and shower. We were very comfortable the whole time there and will be recommending it to everyone!

Such a great unique experience. We got the igloo with the private bathroom which was worth every penny. We could lay in bed and watch the Icelandic ponies graze in the pasture behind. Each unit was very private with curtains to pull around for extra privacy. We were there on a hot day but the evening was cool so our unit was comfortable to sleep and the sleep mask provided helped with the sun. Recommend!

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

We had a wonderful experience and enjoyed watching the aurora while comfortably sitting in bed.
Lisa, 1-night trip

10/10 Excellent

What a unique place to stay! We look for creative venues to stay in our travels and this fit the description. The sheep wandering by our igloo and the cows and/or horses in the distance added to the ambiance. We didn’t get lucky enough to see Northern Lites, but boy what an opportunity that would be to lay in bed and see these from your igloo! Very comfortable. Plenty warm with heated mattress pads and floors. Room was very hot upon arrival due to being heated by the sun in the day but cooled off rather quickly. The door opening and lock system does leave something to be desired though. We checked out the Aegissidufoss Falls down the road from the igloo. We also walked the Hella River Walk Trail. Very near the Caves of Hella and American Bus Cafe. Food options very convenient. Seljalandsfoss Falls approx 30 min away so could over nite location for exploring that and the Skogafoss falls another 20-30 min past that.

Shravan, 2-night trip

10/10 Excellent

From the moment we arrived, the experience felt surreal like stepping into a dream. The igloo itself was cozy, warm, and beautifully designed with panoramic glass walls that made stargazing and watching the Northern Lights absolutely breathtaking. The staff were incredibly welcoming and helpful, always making sure we had everything we needed without being intrusive. The amenities were top-notch, and we appreciated the little touches — from the local snacks provided to the thoughtful guide on when to expect peak aurora activity. This was one of the most unique and awe-inspiring travel experiences we’ve ever had. If you’re looking for a once-in-a-lifetime adventure that combines comfort, nature, and wonder — the Aurora Igloo is the place to be. We’re already dreaming about going back. 5/5 stars – Highly recommended! ⸻ Would you like to personalize it with details like location, season, or who you traveled with?
