Sleep Under Iceland’s Wide-Open Skies Near the South Coast From $212 a Night
From $212
Woah! This is a true bucket-list Iceland stay. Aurora Igloo South (rated 4.5/5 on TripAdvisor) has rare rates from $212 a night for a clear dome stay in Hella, Iceland, with 360° sky views right from bed. The property sits on the outskirts of Hella in South Iceland, about 62 miles from Reykjavík, making it an easy one-night splurge on an Iceland road trip.
The lowest rate we found is in July, which is ideal for long daylight hours, waterfalls, and South Coast exploring. But the aurora-season rates are strong too, with December and February dates starting from $277 a night.
🏴☠️ Pirate Note: The Northern Lights in Iceland are usually seen from late August through mid-April, when the nights are dark enough. July has the cheapest rate we found, but it is more of a summer road-trip stay than a Northern Lights stay. For the best chance at seeing the aurora, look at late August through February, with December to February currently offering the best-value aurora-season rates.
