You Can Stay in a LumiPod Surrounded by 80 Volcanoes in France

After more than a year of border lockdowns and international travel restrictions, spending the night in a mini prefab dwelling surrounded by 80 volcanoes might sound too good to be true. But now, Airbnb and Volvic are teaming up to offer two guests a unique one-night stay in the Chaîne des Puys area of France’s Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region—the site where the French brand sources its natural mineral water.

On September 18, 2o21, two lucky Airbnb guests will enjoy a spectacular overnight getaway in a LumiPod, which is a circular prefab structure with curved glass windows that offer panoramic views of the tectonic setting. In addition to spending the night in the indoor/outdoor accommodation, the trip will include a guided tour of the natural park’s biodiversity, as well as a volcano hike planned by record-breaking mountain athlete, Kilian Jornet, who is the virtual host of the excursion.

The two guests will also be treated to a hot air balloon ride overlooking the Chaîne des Puys volcanoes (weather dependent), as well as a locally sourced dinner by French Michelin-starred chef, Adrien Descouls, and a private sunrise yoga session.

Booking will open on a first come, first served basis at 3:00 a.m. EST (9:00 a.m. CEST) on July 19, 2021. The Airbnb listing notes that "those who request to book must be able to comply with their country of residence’s international travel and COVID-related safety rules and share the same household to minimize risk." The overnight trip is priced at 1€, which amounts to roughly one dollar—however, guests are responsible for their own travel to and from the unique Airbnb listing.
