If being completely disconnected from the world while being surrounded by mountains and snow is your thing, the Floating Glacier Hut would be perfect for you. Located in East Greenland, the unique accommodation is described as the most remote Airbnb on the planet. Boasting amazing views of glaciers and icebergs, it’s a one-of-a-kind accommodation. The hexagonal hut sits on a floating deck on an isolated fjord, anchored to nearby rocks by two ropes. The glass ceiling offers glimpses of blue sky and stars. Visitors can enjoy a variety of activities, including glacier walking, ice caving, and fishing. The Floating Glacier Hut is so remote that the only means of communication is by satellite phone, which can connect to orbiting satellites, as there are no cellphone towers in the area. Inside the hut there’s a small stove for cooking, a sink, and a composting toilet. There is no shower, so brave guests can take a dip in the freezing sea if so inclined. Kitchen essentials like utensils and dishes are provided. There’s also a small deck where guests can sit outside and enjoy the scenery, and may even catch a glimpse of the aurora borealis. The nearest settlement, 500 miles away, is Ittoqqortoormiit, which has a population of only 345 people. The hut rents for ￡391 ($510) per night, but is fully booked until July 2026.
