South coast lodge
Hot pools, big windows, and the glacier across the plain.
A lodge on Iceland's south coast with hot pools, a good kitchen, and glacier walks a short drive away.
Chosen for position and warmth. The glacier is visible from the window, the hot pools are outside, and a weather day is still a good day.

Why we like it
What makes South coast lodge work
- A base for the waterfalls, glaciers and black beaches of the south without changing hotels every night.
- Large windows and dark skies for the northern lights in winter.
- Family rooms and a restaurant that suits children after a long day outdoors.
Good to know
Before you decide
- Winter brings short days and the lights; summer brings midnight sun and easier roads.
- A private guide and 4x4 are how we plan Iceland; distances and weather make it worth it.
- Glacier walks suit children from about eight with the right guide and equipment.
