Igloos on the Pier 2020
Igloos are popping up at Pier One again — and one of them has a hot tub.
Overview
Pier One's harbourfront igloos are back. And, once again, one of them has its very own hot tub. Yes, a hot tub. So if you've been hankering after wintry waterside drinks — but aren't quite willing to brave the cold — this should be a very viable option.
In case you're wondering, the igloos aren't made of snow and ice. They're transparent dome-shaped structures that you can hire for yourself and up to ten mates (socially distanced, of course), as long as you're willing to indulge in a few cocktails, glasses of Champagne and snacks from the Bar One menu.
To hire out the hot tub igloo, you have to spend $400 for 2.5 hours and pay a $200 hire fee (which will end up costing $60 a head). The hire comes with fluffy robes, towels and a change room. If you want to go all out, you can also book into the Dream Igloo Suite, with cosy decor, a day bed and some of the best harbour views around. It'll set you back around $600 all up (including hire fee). This year, all igloos will be on suite balconies, perched above the pier.
For those who want to truly indulge, you can opt for a luxe food hamper, including a cheese and charcuterie hamper, a seafood market basket and one filled with decadent desserts. Each hamper serves two.
You can hire out the igloos daily, from 12–2.30pm, 3.30–6pm or 7–9.30pm, between Friday, June 19 and Sunday, August 30. If you opt for the latter, you can add on a night's stay in the suite for an $350, which includes overnight accomodation for two, plus breakfast and parking.
Igloos on the Pier are available to book out at midday, 3.30pm and 7pm daily.
