The room was awesome though there was a small spot on the extra blanket and the chair cushions were a little stained. Cannot stress enough how cool this experience was.

Loved our stay. So grateful for the eye masks as it never really got dark in May. We booked on Expedia their app had errors and couldn’t let us see our check in info. I emailed the hosts they got back to us right away with the code to the key box. Definitely loved having our own bathroom. We went to the hot springs not too far away. It was the perfect combo,

A wonderful and magical place. Recommending this to everyone visiting Iceland. Don’t plan anything in the evening, just stay in the igloo and enjoy the sunset and the serenity.

Beautiful property! Clean, cozy and very unique! Check in was a little strange - there is an international number, on a sign, to call when you arrive. That is how you find out which igloo is yours and how to enter, etc. I was a little worried, but the phone was answered quickly and check in went smoothly. Very neat experience! Would return!
