New Glass Dome Resort to Open at Bryce Canyon National Park - AFAR

"Opening August 1, 2024, this year-round glass-dome resort sits in a private 80-acre canyon about 15 minutes from Bryce Canyon National Park and is designed for stargazing, with 62 floor-to-ceiling geodesic domes that showcase the crimson hoodoos by day and the Milky Way by night. Each climate-controlled dome includes privacy curtains, a king-size bed, an en suite bathroom with a waterfall shower, a private patio, a coffee and tea station, a mini fridge, a microwave, and free Wi-Fi; guests can choose Standard (438 sq ft) or Deluxe (610 sq ft) domes for two, XL Deluxe units with a loft and two twin beds for up to four, themed Disco Suites (with dance floor, disco ball, laser lights, and sound system), and a single eight-person Deluxe suite (845 sq ft) with two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a loft accessed by a spiral staircase and a slide. On-site offerings include a glass-dome, futuristic-themed restaurant serving breakfast and dinner, yoga sessions, nightly live music, a Frisbee-golf course, yard and board games, a firepit with complimentary s’mores, stargazing tours, and a projection dome with planetarium-style movies. The resort emphasizes immersive night-sky viewing near several International Dark Sky Parks, operates year-round (including winter), is already taking reservations with rates normally starting at $525, and is offering a temporary 25% off two-night soft-opening special; it is the brand’s second bubble-resort property, joining a seasonal location near the Grand Canyon." - Bailey Berg
