Description

Indulge in a unique 16-hour adventure amid Iceland's pristine scenery at Fjallsarlon glacier lagoon. Travelers looking for an intimate and spectacular overnight boat stay with the chance to gaze upon the northern lights or the midnight sun should book this one-of-a-kind experience now.

Your unforgettable stay begins with a check-in at the lagoon from 18:00. Note that this accommodation has a minimum age requirement of 20.

Your accommodation for the night is an Aurora Hut, also called an Igloo boat, designed for utmost comfort and style. With only two boats available, this exclusive opportunity is open to just a few lucky travelers. 

A Zodiac boat will transport you from dry land to your Aurora Hut, which floats on the lagoon during summer and the shoulder season when this stay is available. Please be aware that you will be confined to the boat during your stay.

Prepare to be transported to the midst of breathtaking landscapes, where the grandeur of the Vatnajokull glacier forms a majestic backdrop. Immerse yourself in the tranquillity of nature, where the solitude allows you to connect with Iceland's raw beauty deeply.

The boats have a double bed, promising a cozy night for two people. The glass walls and ceiling offer a panoramic view of the surroundings, creating a seamless connection with the outdoors.

Despite being in the wilderness, you can enjoy modern amenities such as a small kitchenette, electricity, and Wi-Fi within the boat. Your stay also includes cozy sheets, pillows, and duvets. Please note that a composting toilet is available, but there are no shower facilities on location. 

Guests should have dinner before arriving, as the focus here is on the harmony of simplicity and nature's wonders. 

Depending on the season, your experience at the lagoon will vary. During summer, witness the phenomena of 24-hour daylight, letting you soak in the vivid details of the landscape at all times. In the spring and autumn, the pristine landscape bathed in twilight hues offers a serene retreat. 

This adventure promises a bounty of celestial delights, too. The clear night sky offers a brilliant canvas for stargazing from the comfort and warmth of your hut. Those who book outside of the summer season also have the chance to witness the mesmerizing dance of the northern lights.

Check-out is scheduled at 09:00 the following day, leaving you with cherished memories and perhaps a few splendid photographs of your time amidst Iceland's unparalleled beauty.

Seize this rare chance to embrace Iceland's natural wonders with a 16-hour stay in an Aurora Hut on the Fjallsarlon glacier lagoon in Southeast Iceland. Check availability now by choosing a date.
