An igloo in the middle of Doñana, 50 minutes from Seville: this is how much a night costs in August.

Just 50 minutes from Seville, in the heart of Doñana National Park, lies Ardea Purpurea Lodge , a unique accommodation tucked away among pine forests that offers a unique experience: sleeping in an Andalusian igloo. An ideal getaway for those looking to unwind without sacrificing comfort.

This unusual accommodation is called ' Igloo ,' although it's actually a 40 m² semi-spherical dome with a traditional thatched roof. It features a terrace with lake and forest views, a minibar, shower, TV, Wi-Fi, air conditioning, ambient lighting, and a pool. The price? From €120 per night without breakfast for two people. With breakfast included, the rate rises to €148, and if an extra bed is added for a third person, it can reach €182 per night. All cancellations are non-refundable and payment must be made at the end of the stay.

Ardea Purpurea is located on a 9-hectare estate in Villamanrique de la Condesa , just minutes from El Rocío, Matalascañas, and Vado del Quema. Inspired by traditional marsh cabins, the complex features 17 lovingly decorated accommodations , a restaurant, a terrace, a garden area, and a restaurant serving rice dishes, fried fish, and salmorejo. Horseback riding and electric buggy tours are also available.

The accommodation does not have a 24-hour reception , so you must notify your arrival time in advance. Check-in after 11:00 PM is also not guaranteed. However, if you're looking for peace and quiet, natural surroundings, relaxation, and something different, this "Andalusian igloo" is one of the most original summer destinations... without leaving Andalusia.

Sleeping in an igloo in the middle of Doñana may seem eccentric, but it's actually a different—and increasingly popular—way to experience the Andalusian summer in peace, nature, and comfort. A perfect getaway for those looking for more than just accommodations: an experience to remember.
