The Retreat at Blue Lagoon is so wonderful.
A lot so that each time we go to Iceland we all the time make it some extent to remain on the Blue Lagoon.
It’s truly one thing of a convention now as a result of it’s what we did on the primary journey and as we now have such fond recollections of it, it’s develop into a must-do on each journey to Iceland.
It’s additionally actually near the airport so it additionally feels fairly sensible too.
Our relaxed day earlier than turned out to not be so relaxed however having the ability to see puffins so shut (and without cost – with none excursions) and in addition Dyrhólaey (lastly!) meant that downtime in The Retreat at Blue Lagoon was one thing we had been trying ahead to a lot that we confirmed up 3 hours earlier than check-in even opened.
Let me present you across the room and the final space right here.
The rooms are completely beautiful however in that stripped-back minimalist manner Iceland and lots of the Nordic international locations are well-known for.
There’s champagne to welcome you within the room and every thing within the minibar is included together with your keep – even the alcoholic drinks.
And all of it will get topped up/changed within the night with the turndown service.
On this journey, we truly initially tried to e book the Silica Resort at Blue Lagoon however as I discussed in this put up right here, resort bookings in Iceland in summer season are wild.
So many had offered out and the Silica Resort at The Blue Lagoon was certainly one of them.
This left us with The Retreat at Blue Lagoon to e book and in order that’s how we ended up staying there.
The Retreat at Blue Lagoon nevertheless simply take issues up a notch in comparison with The Silica Resort at Blue Lagoon.
A number of notches truly.
For starters, you might be welcomed with champagne whereas the check-in workers all flutter round you to be sure to have every thing you want.
The primary spa is right here and it has this factor known as The Rituals which is sort of a pores and skin cleaning and rejuvenation therapy which, to be trustworthy, I kinda initially rolled my eyes at.
I believe I used to be simply sceptical as a result of I’ve been to so many spas the place individuals attempt to promote this concept of providing you with this unimaginable therapy that’s distinctive to them however truly has you feeling no completely different to some other spa and even such as you had been to a spa to start with.
Nonetheless, we had been right here and I made a decision we’d should attempt it.
It’s so value it by the best way.
Your pores and skin feels so unimaginable after and even for days after, I’d neglect that we’d performed it and marvel why my pores and skin appears and feels so good after which the recollections of the therapy we’d had right here would come flooding again.
I can’t advocate it sufficient.
You aren’t allowed to take images within the spa so I can’t present you a lot there.
There’s additionally a non-public blue lagoon space that solely friends of The Retreat at Blue Lagoon can go to (you can even if you’re paying to go to the spa) and I realise now that you’re not allowed to take images there however we truly did whereas we had been there.
To be honest, it was pretty late and there was nobody else round so it didn’t actually make a lot of a distinction.
It did really feel so good to have nobody else round although as a result of it kinda felt like we had the entire place all to ourselves.
Afternoon tea can also be offered as a part of your keep right here and except for that and a go to to the restaurant for dinner, we just about spent your complete day simply enjoyable within the slightly heat waters of The Retreat at Blue Lagoon.
It was magnificent.
It was additionally the proper relaxation cease earlier than re-attempting to hike to the close by erupting volcano.
