Where you'll stay

One private lakefront home, yours for the week.

A secluded waterfront property on Lake Gíslholtsvatn in southern Iceland. You unpack once and settle in, rather than packing and moving every night. Here's the closer look at the home and your room options.

The home base

Designed for community.

Nestled on a secluded peninsula along the waters of Lake Gíslholtsvatn, our Iceland home is a private waterfront retreat that blends old-world Scandinavian charm with modern Nordic architecture. The whole group settles into one beautiful property for the entire expedition, which is exactly what turns travelers into a pack.

Inside: a library with a wood-burning stove, a south-facing dining room overlooking the lake, a fireside living room, a full kitchen, and peaceful bedrooms that invite slow mornings and deep rest. There's a sauna with a lake view and picture windows, a Yoga Shala for the evening sound bath and Yoga Nidra, and just steps from the door, a lakeside geothermal soaking pool.
