It is designed with the inspiration of stimulating adventure for guests whilst also creating a scenic view for them to enjoy in solitude. It has a [remote location](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/not-a-hotel-1) that can be found within a 3-hour car ride from Reykjavík. During more harsh conditions during the winter, the resort requires that guests schedule transport by a professional, taking them in a 4x4 super [Jeep](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bishops-lodge) in order to make their way through the snow and icy terrain safely. Due to this, the unique experience is for those who are seeking relaxation and a remote stay away from the city.
