About Fjallsárlón Glacier Lagoon - Aurora Huts
Experience a magical nighttime adventure on the waters of the stunning Fjallsárlón Glacier Lagoon in Southeast Iceland, with an exclusive stay in one of the unique Aurora Huts. These modern igloo-like cabins float right in the middle of the lagoon and offer an unparalleled panoramic view of the surrounding ice masses. Here, in the silence of the Icelandic wilderness, you will encounter pristine nature like nowhere else in the world.
Hidden among the majestic glaciers, this one-of-a-kind accommodation features a modern hut with glass walls that provide a front-row seat to the breathtaking landscape. Whether you enjoy the golden evening light, hear the ice floes creaking, or see the northern lights dancing in the sky – this place is designed to connect you with nature.
Please note: You will only spend the night here and cannot leave the raft during your stay. It is therefore recommended to travel light and bring a backpack with essentials for the night.
What to Expect:
- A stunning view of the Fjallsárlón glacier lagoon, reaching all the way to the Vatnajökull glacier
- A unique, floating natural accommodation far away from the inhabited world
- Transportation by zodiac boat to your cabin (approximately 15 minutes)
- An experience of complete tranquility, seclusion, and connection with nature
- Not a standard hotel stay, but an unforgettable Icelandic adventure
- Available from June to October

Hotel Information
Accommodation
There are a total of three AuroraHuts, each with maximum privacy, freely floating in the lagoon. Thanks to their innovative design, they can be moved depending on the season and view. The huts are entirely focused on tranquility, nature experiences, and sustainability.
The glass walls give you the feeling of being one with nature, while inside you enjoy comfort and shelter. Although there is no shower, the experience on the water makes up for it. This overnight stay is intended as an experience – one you won't forget quickly.
Restaurant and meals
During your stay, you will remain onboard in your cabin. You should have dined before arrival (check-in is at 17:30). On land, you will find the Frost Restaurant, where you can purchase snacks and drinks in advance if desired. There is also a buffet available for lunch or dinner before or after your stay.
A light evening meal and breakfast will be delivered to your cabin. For dinner, think of a wrap with chicken or vegetables, and for breakfast, Skyr yogurt, bread with toppings, and coffee.
Age and Child-Friendly
To ensure peace and safety, this accommodation is only accessible to adults aged 20 and over. In exceptional cases, teenagers between 17 and 20 years old may be allowed, upon request.
Sustainability
The Aurora Huts are designed with sustainability in mind. Both the huts themselves and the materials used are environmentally friendly. Through the limited CO₂ emissions, the composting toilet, and the responsible use of energy and water, you leave no trace in nature during your stay. A perfect match for those who want to combine luxury and nature conservation.
