@ Panorama Glass Lodge
Panorama Glass Lodge is set within Iceland’s remote landscapes, where open sky, volcanic terrain and untouched nature surround you in every direction. Located in secluded countryside settings, these private glass lodges are designed to immerse you completely in the elements while maintaining warmth, comfort and refined simplicity.
Each lodge is built around a striking concept: floor to ceiling glass walls and ceilings that allow you to experience Iceland’s ever-changing skies from the comfort of your bed. Inspired by Nordic and Viking design, the interiors combine natural materials with carefully crafted details, creating a space that feels both modern and deeply connected to the landscape.
With only a handful of lodges spread across wide open land, privacy is central to the experience. Outside, a private hot tub and terrace invite you to soak in the scenery, whether beneath the northern lights in winter or the endless glow of the midnight sun in summer.
Your Wilderness Retreat, Your Way
Here, luxury is defined by simplicity, silence and the vastness of the sky. Wake to soft light over mountains and lava fields, spend your day exploring Iceland’s raw landscapes, and return to a space where nature surrounds you completely. Whether you are seeking romance, adventure or stillness, your stay unfolds entirely at your own pace.
Why stay at Panorama Glass Lodge?
Panorama Glass Lodge offers a rare opportunity to experience Iceland’s skies in complete solitude. Designed for those seeking something truly different, it combines architectural simplicity with raw natural beauty.
Here, the landscape becomes part of your stay. With minimal light pollution and uninterrupted views, it is one of the most immersive ways to experience the northern lights, while also offering a peaceful retreat for rest, reflection and connection to nature.
Tailor Made Experiences may include
- Northern lights viewing directly from your lodge or outdoor hot tub
- Exploring nearby waterfalls, volcanic landscapes and scenic hiking routes
- Visits to geothermal areas and natural hot springs
- Horse riding or guided nature excursions through the Icelandic countryside
- Private dining moments within your lodge or under the open sky

The ease of everything stood out to me. All we had to do was be there at the right time. The dog sledding was the highlight for my daughter and sister. We had the best time! For me, Manshausen was the highlight. We were very lucky and the only guests there for the majority of our stay. The staff was amazing and the food was so delicious. We had moose steak and it was the best meal I’ve ever had.
The cabins were comfortable and we were so lucky to have 2 clear nights where we just sat and watched the northern lights. We were able to get some awesome pictures too.
I appreciate all your time and care with planning our trip! I won’t hesitate to use Off the Map travel for our next adventure.

We did! Everything was truly wonderful! I think the Holman Husky Lodge was our favourite place. Beautiful accommodations, but best of all, wonderful people! Everyone was so friendly and accommodating, excellent food, we really enjoyed our time there. We also greatly enjoyed Bergen! Opus XVI was beautiful and we loved being able to walk to restaurants and bars and take in the sights. All of our drivers were punctual and friendly. The itinerary was full but not overfull.
Thank you so much! It was an epic trip, we are taking home wonderful memories!
Shelly
We – the whole family – loved the whole journey!!
The accommodations, the activities and especially the great people – thank you very much for this fantastic organisation !!!
Barbara
We have loved it so much here that we have extended our stay and will come back to Bjornfjell and stay in one of their cabins until Jan 3 then we are staying in the igloo hotel the night of the 3rd. 😊We added a few excursions this week – we did the whale trip on the RIB boat (wow!), toured the igloo hotel (which is why we decided to book the last night!) and did the reindeer sleigh at Sorrisniva. You were so right, the bonfire excursion was incredible!!It has been an absolutely amazing trip!
Kristen
What an amazing trip we are having. It is incredible. Many many thanks for arranging such an incredible trip.
Giles
Well-organized trip to Norway and Svalbard with great accommodations and activities. Gwen was communicative and responsive to requests. Highly recommend!
Russell Snook
Amy was a great help with planning this trip. Our trip turned out amazing. I also was very grateful for Off the Map’s Front Desk service, which promptly handled an on the spot issue we had.
Karen
Fantastic trip to Svalbard which delivered the true Arctic experience we were hoping for. The hotels were excellent and the activities – dog sledding and snowmobile expedition were lead by first class guides.
Top tip! The champagne tasting in the world’s most northerly wine cellar in the exceptional Funken Lodge is not to be missed!
Faith
My family and I traveled to Sweden to see The Northern Lights in March of 2023. From the planning process to every detail of the trip, I could not have been more pleased with our experience. Alex was exceptional to work with. His guidance on the time of year, where to stay, activities to do and how to get to and from everything was spot on. I have never used a tour company before but thought a trip of this kind would be easier with some help. I am so glad that I did. The entire week was seamless and completely stress-free, allowing us to truly enjoy Sweden and our time together as a family. I will be recommending Off The Map travel to friends and family and will certainly be using them myself again in the future.
Emily
Amy planned a fantastic trip! Everything was very well-thought out. All transfers went smoothly, accommodations were amazing, great restaurant recommendations and the tours were once-in-a-lifetime, can’t book it yourself off the internet experiences. The guides were all fantastic. Communications were prompt and everything worked exactly the way it was supposed to. What a pleasure! Already working on our next trip.

The best travel experience ever on every level you can think of during a Lapland expedition (food, activities, timings, accommodation, transport, service, equipment…). I highly recommend Off The Map Travel for their outstanding level of professionalism and detail oriented mindset!
