It's really nice and we got to see the aurora at night but it's really hard to get the door to the igloo open.

The best unique stay!
We loved our igloo experience! It was so cosy and it kept really warm despite the cold weather outside and the crazy winds. The heated mattresses and hot chocolates were particular highlights. An unforgettable experience ☺️

We saw Northern Lights and could see the eruption of the volcano at Grindavik from our igloo. It was warm and cozy even at the end of November. The bottle of wine was a lovely touch also. We loved it!

I liked the serene and unique environment of the igloo. The beds were quite comfy. The accommodations were very pleasant. However, one thing was that it was fairly cold and very windy during my stay. That only made going to the bathroom a little unpleasant, but besides that everything else was great.

The igloo was lovely, very comfortable. We were sadly very unlucky with the weather - the wind caused an awful draft so it was very cold despite mutiple heaters. Was fine in bed thanks to the lovely heated mattress and thick duvet.

Fabulous
Amazing place for a completely back to nature experience with all the little luxury add ons. Under floor heating, electric blankets - sleeping under the stars in the cosiest of places. Extra treat was the spectacular aurora borealis! If you visit Iceland this is a must visit spot.
After an initial issue of getting into igloo( key was not working and had to be worked on back and forth for 30 minutes) and not being able to get a hold of anyone after initial call, we got in and wow view and the auroras showed up and the view of the auroras and sky was beyond the purview of my vocabulary. Overall magnificent.

A great experience sleeping under the stars and watching 4hours of the Aurora. Stayed warm with the heaters and enjoyed a lovely sunrise. So glad we chose a unit with attached bathroom! Only issue was unlocking the door. Took several tries but finally unlocked even following the lifting up the handle instructions

Unique stay! Wouldn't have more than two people in the space as it's small. The view is just a field and they didn't clean under the bed as there was a plethora of dead bugs underneath.

Beautiful glass globes with wonderful views. We were lucky to see Nothern lights laying on our bed all night. What a show. The morning was glorious as well, with some handsome Icelandic ponies grazing in the idyllic fields.
The igloo was warm with heated floors, and the attached bath unit was immaculate and ergonomically contructed, with coffe/tea, and a lovely standin shower.
Highly recoemmended.
