Benny taking you on holiday to Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort and you get there see that it’s an igloo and the first question you think of “is how are we suppose to have sex” he laughs at you and give you a smart ass response.

LOL I love this. Benny would glance up at the windowed ceiling and shrug, "I mean, we put on a pretty good show, babe."

I also need you to know that before I clicked the link, I was almost expecting it to be THIS—

and now I'm outright wheezing imagining the disaster that would be.

The Northern Lights: A symbol of beauty or degradation?

The Northern Lights, also known as Aurora Borealis, are an ecological wonder that light up Greenland’s skies and enchant all those who have the privilege of seeing them.

I have chosen the Northern Lights as they are a symbol of both Greenland’s Inuit folklore and the environmental uniqueness that is a huge drawcard for its international tourism. 

Aurora Borealis occurs when solar particles collide with the Earth’s atmosphere, with the lights are the most visible from September to April (Greenland Travel, 2024). Greenland’s low population density and isolation mean it has little light pollution, creating the perfect stage to view the lights in all their glory (Tomlin, 2023). 

Inuit folklore differs regionally on the meaning of the Northern Lights, with Northern Greenlandic communities believing in the lights representing the souls of their ancestors guiding the living. 

Though it is clear why tourists are drawn to visit Greenland for this bucket-list activity, it can contribute to the broader overshadowing of Greenland’s rich contemporary culture as well as add to environmental degradation. Specialised tourism lodgings to see the Lights, such as the Kakslauttanen igloos (See more here: https://www.kakslauttanen.fi/accommodation/glass-igloos), can provide magnificent sky views but also epitomise the commercialisation of this natural marvel. This creates a conundrum as people visit the lights in Greenland due to the low light pollution, but by travelling there they contribute to emissions that impact the delicate Arctic ecosystem. 

Ultimately, the Northern lights are a symbol of Greenland as they represent its natural beauty and its environmental tourism sector. It is important to recognise the potential environmental and cultural impacts that tourism can have on the country, and for travellers to try their best to understand and appreciate Greenland’s multifaceted identity.

Glass Igloo Holidays for a Romantic Couples Trip with a Twist

Booking a holiday to Finnish Lapland and staying in a glass igloo is a wonderful experience and one that many couples choose to commemorate milestones and occasions, whether a wedding, honeymoon or another celebration they’d like to mark with a special holiday.

Arctic glass houses and igloos are a once-in-a-lifetime way to view the Northern Lights, fitted with amenities such as a hot tub, ice bar, and private sauna to help you wind down and relax amid some of the most astonishing scenery and landscapes in the world.

There are numerous glass igloo hotels and resorts to choose between, ranging from the Iisakki Glass Village to the Jeris Aurora Domes, the Pyhän Asteli Aurora Igloos and the Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort, where visitors can stay in newly built Kelo Glass igloos.

Let’s look at some of the destinations to consider for your trip to the Arctic, the types of accommodation available, and how a heated glass igloo provides a unique way to view the phenomenon that can only be seen in the Northern sky during the winter months.

What to Expect From a Glass Igloo Holiday

A modern, luxury glass igloo resort is a world away from the idea of a chilly, snowy igloo exposed to sub-zero temperatures and the sharp Arctic air that accompanies each snowstorm!

Depending on your preferred destination within the Aurora Zone and whether you’d like to stay in comfortable glass igloos within a resort or a glass igloo hotel, you will find:

Beautifully warm igloos complete with kitchenettes featuring essentials like an electric kettle and fireplaces where you can unwind with a thermal glass roof for that amazing view of the night sky.

Glass igloo packages that include an exclusive use log cabin with a glazed dome situated at one end with cosy blankets, seating and dining spaces.

Ice hotels with a stone fireplace in each room, or glass igloos and luxury round-shaped tents or yurts available to guests, complete with an outdoor heated jacuzzi.

While the winter months are ideal for Northern Lights guided tours, guests also visit Lapland during the ‘midnight sun’ period in the warmer summer. At this time of the year, the sun almost never sets, making it a superb time to experience summer glass igloo functions and spot some of the rarest species in the Arctic Circle that hibernate over the winter.

Glass igloos are permanently insulated and warm, using innovative thermal glass, allowing you to enjoy a romantic, secluded trip to this remarkable part of the world for a honeymoon, anniversary, engagement or other occasion at any time.

If you are looking for a holiday during the Northern Lights season that offers something extraordinary, we’d also suggest looking into a snow castle, a feat of engineering that provides winter holidays like no other!

Making Your Glass Igloo Holiday Extra-Special

Staying in a glass igloo is a brilliant experience, with contemporary igloo hotels providing private accommodation with a laser-heated glass roof to ensure you feel warm and comfy inside yet have a radiant view of the Northern Lights, the Arctic wilderness around you and the stars overhead.

The Lake Inari adults-only Nangu Wilderness Resort is perfect for engagements and honeymoons. An alternative resort in Ranua, close to Ranua Arctic Wildlife Park, is another location where visitors can see an array of spectacular wildlife, from polar bears to arctic wolves and moose.

If you are planning a glass igloo tour as part of a memorable occasion, we can recommend a huge array of finishing touches, including:

Private meals prepared by a chef in an ice restaurant, accompanied, of course, by a bottle of perfectly chilled champagne or cocktails served in an ice bar.

Guided tours and excursions, such as ice fishing, visiting a Northern Lights ranch, a reindeer farm visit and a trip to a snow sauna.

Rustic Aurora cabins far from the light pollution, with an insulated glass dome positioned over your sleeping quarters or with a glass-walled sauna outside to make the most of your surroundings.

Guests can also consider a number of incredible accommodations. Many couples opt for a traditional Finnish log cottage complete with an outdoor hot tub or stay in a charming Arctic Snowhotel, with the convenience of an Aurora alarm service to ensure they get the first glimpse of the Northern Lights as they emerge.

Whatever your perfect glass igloo holiday looks like, our travel consultants can create a bespoke itinerary to make your holiday unforgettable. You will find full details of each glass igloo package or tours published online, or are welcome to contact us to discuss your requirements.

Glass Igloo Village and Ice Hotel Holiday Destinations

As experts in Northern Lights travel and organising unusual, charming, and traditional accommodations, the Baltic Travel Company can recommend an array of stunning destinations from which to select. Some of the best places to stay in an ice hotel or modern, insulated glass igloo include:

Finnish Lapland, to the far north of the country close to reindeer farms and Lake Inari.

Northern Norway, with glass igloo resorts based amid vast snowscapes.

Swedish Lapland, offering popular resorts to the north of the Arctic Circle.

These beautifully wild winter destinations will never disappoint. They offer an unspoiled view of the night sky from within your snug glass igloo, providing the best vantage points to see the Northern Lights dancing across the sky in all their glory.

We can also recommend glass igloo holidays combined with a longer itinerary, allowing you to explore, try snowmobiling and reindeer rides, or visit a luxury hotel or lodge to relax and unwind with a pre-booked glass igloo trip for one or two nights of your stay.

For more information about planning your glass igloo holiday, choosing between destinations within the Arctic Circle, or scheduling your romantic getaway, please get in touch or browse our winter holiday packages online.

Each glass igloo holiday is adapted to your requirements, with all the details taken care of, including flights, transfers and your choice of accommodation in your selected glass resort.
