Icelandic nature is renowned worldwide for its beauty, drama and diversity. The island’s landscape covers everything from black sand deserts and beaches to sweeping glacial plains, mountain ranges and luscious green hillsides.

Built of fire-retardant PVC, our bubbles are situated deep in the South Iceland countryside, lovingly positioned to maximise one’s immersion in the surroundings. Our bubbles are found in two locations, though these are not revealed until just before your trip to keep the element of surprise intact.

Whichever location you wind up staying in, you will discover a bubble surrounded by dense woodlands, with views that stretch out over the grassy meadows and glittering brooks that so characterise this region of the country.

A bubble in Iceland also makes for the perfect spot to curl up and read a book, meditate, or share intimate conversations with your loved one. All the while, the gentle rush of the wind passing over the spherical build of the bubble, plus the sound of birdsong and gently babbling brooks, will help keep you at ease throughout your stay.

Beautiful, ethereal and unlike anything else on the planet, the Northern Lights are among Iceland’s most exciting naturally-occurring phenomena. On dark winter nights, the sky is more than capable of coming alive with colour and energy; dazzling ribbons of green that wave and flaunter as if conscious, inspiring all who see them.

One of the great benefits of observing the Northern Lights from a bubble in Iceland is that you do away with the cold outdoor temperature, not mentioning the winds, rain and snow that comes with it. The shelter allows for a more comfortable, private and prolonged time with the auroras, allowing you plenty of time to watch them dance, shift and change colour throughout the night.

The Northern Lights are notoriously unpredictable, so there is no guaranteeing they will appear, even if the conditions and forecast are optimistic. In such cases, you’ll likely be left with a stunning black sky twinkling with countless interstellar bodies. For what other reason could they refer to our bubbles as the 5-Million Star Hotel?

Witnessing the Northern Lights is only available to winter visitors in Iceland, but guests arriving in summer should not fear missing out. After all, Iceland offers unique discoveries regardless of the season; such is the magic and nature of this place.

In place of the auroras arrives the Midnight Sun, illuminating the land for up to 24 hours a day. From inside your bubble, you will have clear views of a land in blossom, complete with purple lupin flowers, blue skies and rolling green hillsides.

If cupid’s dealt you a fortunate hand, you won’t have such a contentious relationship with that special someone in your life as you with your social media chums; thus, it is considered normal and, in many cases, mandatory to dote upon them with lavish gifts.

Thankfully, staying overnight in one of our South Iceland bubbles is about as luxurious and thoughtful a present one could imagine, providing you with a cosily intimate evening spent beneath a blanket of starlight. Laying arm in arm with one another, you’ll fall asleep to your very own cosmos, the perfect send-off to a day spent touring South Iceland together.

Despite what the shopping channel tells you, it is shared experiences, rather than a mass of material possessions, that have the most value in life. Memories of time spent together help you remain bonded to one another and often elevate a relationship to new heights.

Anyone debating when and where to pop the question would do well to keep one of our overnight bubble stays in mind. With such sublime surroundings at your disposal, there is little doubt wedding bells are a sure bet in the future.

Travel is beneficial for many things; broadening the mind, witnessing new sights, meeting new people, sampling unheard-of delicacies, and learning something about oneself that you could have never uncovered otherwise.

Of course, travel is also great for making your pals seethe with jealousy, which, as we all know, is the bedrock of any healthy friendship.

Sure, Lindsay from your university days might now be running a fashion line in Madrid, and perhaps Tom from work does have as many cars as his Facebook status suggests. In the end, you’ll find yourself unimpressed with them boasting of their accomplishments and will readily enjoy an opportunity to, as they say, burst their bubble.

Well, wouldn’t you know that our bubbles are perfect for instilling envy in others? Not only do they look good splashed across social media, but YOU look good in them.

Famous faces have quickly cottoned onto this reality, having shared their own experiences of staying in our transparent bubbles. Renowned for her humour and leading roles in Ugly Betty and Superstore, America Ferrera posted her time in the bubble on Instagram, as did ……

Transparent bubbles are the epitome of novel accommodation, and we are proud to be the only team in Iceland offering such an experience to overseas visitors. This exclusivity allows your time in Iceland to rise beyond the typical, trading in the same-old hotel room, the same traditional guesthouses and hostels, for something completely different.

Each bubble in Iceland operates under a state-of-the-art ventilation system, renewing the air inside up to seven times within a single hour. Not only does this prevent humidity and condensation on the walls, but it also keeps the bubble interior feeling fresh and comfortable. On top of that, we offer heating throughout the year, ensuring your stay is warm regardless of the season.

Our bubbles are within close proximity to several of Iceland’s most popular visitor attractions, epic sites of natural splendour that can’t help but draw an eager crowd with the spectacles on display there.

The Golden Circle sightseeing route is particularly renowned for astounding guests with the beauty of its three main sites; Thingvellir National Park, Gullfoss waterfall and Geysir geothermal area. Thingvellir is a UNESCO World Heritage site known for being the birthplace of the Icelandic nation and where the American and Eurasian continental plates diverge.

While guests should prioritise these attractions above all else, there are countless other interesting diversions en route. Kerid volcanic crater, for instance, makes for a worthy stop, as does Laugarvatn Fontana spa and Fridheimar tomato farm.

Leave behind the lights, pedestrians and traffic of Iceland’s capital, Reykjavik, and instead, trade it in for the tranquillity and serenity of the countryside by staying in a bubble in Iceland. Doing so will not allow for a deeper, more meaningful connection to the environment but will actively contribute to sustainable tourism practises in the country.

Another benefit of staying in a South Iceland bubble is that you will witness this country’s reforestation efforts firsthand. It is a commonly known fact that Iceland’s earliest settlers stripped this land of its trees in a little over 100 years, using the natural resources they found for heating and to build homes and ships.

What they left behind was a beautiful yet largely empty landscape of wind-buffeted, infertile soil. Such a legacy is somewhat strange considering how gorgeous and unique most people consider Iceland’s wilderness, yet what they are appreciating is a land transformed forever by human hand.

Since the early 20th century, Icelanders have made efforts to restore the forests that once covered this land. While reforestation is still very much a work in progress, there are clear signs of growth, and our bubbles are among the best places to see it.

We are the only company that uses Tesla electric vehicles on Golden Circle tours, offering far-less harmful means of travelling from one site to another. Able to comfortably fit up to six passengers, you’ll feel more than safe knowing these are the exact same vehicles used to transport the US President (minus the bullet-proof glass).

From our very earliest days, many of us have dreamt about sleeping outside beneath the moon and starlights. Such inner-longing is to be expected from us, a species that has only just abandoned outdoor living for the comforts and ease of modern amenities.

Still, the thought lingers, the urge to get back to one’s roots and experiencing life naturally. It is as part of every child, as it is every human being on earth. Who among us, after all, did not once ask our parents whether we could sleep out in the garden at some point during our formative year?

Sure, childhood camping trips might have scratched that itch many years ago, but did said experience take place in a land as staggeringly beautiful, strikingly dramatic and ultimately awe-inspiring as Iceland?

We like to think not.

For anyone who decides to stay in a bubble in Iceland, we have strived to make this childhood dream a reality. Stepping inside one of our transparent bubbles for the first time, you will feel a rush of exhilaration overcome you, the sense of a long-held dream finally realised.
