The breakfast was excellent. The staff were very attentive and polite. OK it's a little pricey but well worth the experience overall. The only negative for me was from the Lava restaurant where I had probably the worst steak ever especially given it's hefty price tag. ##### Andrew Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Anne Apr 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities This was the nicest hotel I have ever had the pleasure of visiting. It was beautiful and so nicely kept. The staff was amazing. The Blue Lagoon at The Retreat was very private and quiet. Truly amazing trip. The Retreat was $$$, but worth every penny. ##### Anne Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Brett Oct 8, 2024 Liked: Staff & service, property conditions & facilities One of the most amazing hotels in the world, hewn out of a 600-year-old lava field and connecting with the Blue Lagoon. This is not only Iceland’s number 1 hotel, but totally world-class. Stylish, fantastic service, fluent English by ALL staff, super-modern rooms (lighting can be a bit confusing), keyless entry to room via wrist device, extraordinary spa, good food - what more can one ask? Our only complaint: service in the restaurants is s.l.o.w. ##### Brett Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Tricia Jun 1, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities From the moment you enter, your stress dissipates as you see the blue silica waters and everyone walking around in spa robes. Your host provides you with a personalized check-in and itinerary review along with a tour of the retreat and spa. It is critically important that you reach out DIRECTLY to the retreat to book activities, meals and spas services as they don’t seem to get Expedia messages. Also, check-in is 4pm or after or there is an early fee of $500 (the sister limited hotel w/private lagoon does not charge for an early check-in). Check-out is at 11am or a fee applies. I would recommend 2 nights to enjoy in full. This retreat has a private lagoon that you can enjoy after hours all well. There is a meditation room with a ceiling waterfall and fireplace room that is so calming along with the spa fully body ritual. I would highly recommend the floating massages. A once in a lifetime experience. After you check-in you just need a bathing suit along w/robes and spa shoes they provide for the rest of your stay. A must is a room with the lagoon view as you will have seen plenty of lava fields. The shower in the room is one of the best ever. The stocked mini refrigerator is a nice touch and it is restocked with turn down service. The bed needs to be firmer with softer sheets. The breakfast was standard but eggs came out cold. The spa has nice food options for lunch. Moss is a safe and pricey Michelin star restaurant, enjoyed Ox and Dill way more. ##### Tricia Stayed 1 night in May 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tevin Mar 1, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Discover Tranquility at The Retreat at the Lagoon, Iceland: A Stellar Escape Nestled amidst the ethereal beauty of Iceland's landscape lies The Retreat at the Lagoon, a sanctuary that feels like a journey to another planet.

Its a lie! Inaccurate information considering how incredibly expensive to stay in this particular hotel. It is not worth to stay for four nights as we spent most of our days outdoor. ##### Edna Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ulana Oct 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Such a wonderful facility in aagical place! ##### Ulana Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Maranori Nov 13, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 最高のロケーション！ 自然を楽しみながら、リラックス出来ました。 ##### Maranori Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2024 ### 4/10 Poor #### Owen Jun 22, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Our so-called suite was tiny with a bathtub in the room. Our (reconfirmed!) dinner reservation was lost, though they honored it after I threw a fit. Restaurant was crowded with bused-in tour groups. Bed was very soft. Spa treatments were interesting but overall a disappointment. ##### Owen Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2022 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Konvin Hotel by Reykjavik Keflavik Airport](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-BB-Hotel-By-Keflavik-Airport.h3474914.Hotel-Information) > > [Log Cabin at White River](https://www.expedia.ca/Selfoss-Hotels-Log-Cabin-At-White-River.h44820097.Hotel-Information) > > [Sólvangur Farm, Icelandic Horse Center](https://www.expedia.ca/Eyrarbakki-Hotels-Solvangur.h46193775.Hotel-Information) > > [Eleven Deplar Farm ](https://www.expedia.ca/Skagafjorour-Hotels-Eleven-Experience-Deplar-Farm.h35065041.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Rangá](https://www.expedia.ca/Rangaring-Ytra-Hotels-Hotel-Ranga.h21428508.Hotel-Information) > > [DoubleTree by Hilton Hotel Nashville Downtown](https://www.expedia.ca/Nashville-Hotels-DoubleTree-By-Hilton-Nashville-Downtown.h26631.Hotel-Information) > > [Díma Studio Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/Hofn-Hotels-Dima-Studio-Apartments.h24004074.Hotel-Information) > > [Ásahraun Guesthouse](https://www.expedia.ca/Selfoss-Hotels-Asahraun-Guesthouse.h43985897.Hotel-Information) > > [Country Dream guesthouse](https://www.expedia.ca/Selfoss-Hotels-Country-Dream-Guesthouse.h23920102.Hotel-Information) > > [Nes Residence](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Nes-Residence.h29769531.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Calgary](https://www.expedia.ca/Calgary-Hotels.d178245.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hotel 1001 Nott](https://www.expedia.ca/Egilsstadir-Hotels-Hotel-1001-Nott.h27836354.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Vík í Mýrdal](https://www.expedia.ca/Vik-I-Myrdal-Hotels-Hotel-Vik.h35767873.Hotel-Information) > > [Snorrastadir Farm Holidays](https://www.expedia.ca/Borgarnes-Hotels-Snorrastadir-Farm-Holidays.h40054968.Hotel-Information) > > [Blue Mountain Apartments by Heimaleiga](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Blue-Mountain-Apartments.h10632146.Hotel-Information) > > [Guesthouse Brekka](https://www.expedia.ca/Husavik-Hotels-Guesthouse-Brekka.h32518101.Hotel-Information) > > [201 Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-201-Hotel.h20522120.Hotel-Information) > > [Fosshotel Núpar](https://www.expedia.ca/Kalfafell-Hotels-Fosshotel-Nupar.h7999374.Hotel-Information) > > [Móar Cottages](https://www.expedia.ca/Hvalfjararsveit-Hotels-Moar-Cottages.h48242812.Hotel-Information) > > [Aurora Hotel at Reykjavik-Keflavik Airport Terminal KEF](https://www.expedia.ca/Reykjavik-Hotels-Aurora-Hotel-At-Reykjavik-Keflavik-Airport-Terminal-KEF.h6567348.Hotel-Information) > > [Shakespeare Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Stratford-Hotels-Shakespeare-Inn.h9487682.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels near Silver Star Mountain Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Silver-Star-Mountain-Resort-Hotels.0-l6072713-0.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [Hotels in Orillia](https://www.expedia.ca/Orillia-Hotels.d9268.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [bestwestern Hotels in Kenora](https://www.expedia.ca/Kenora-Hotels-Best-Western.0-0-d6127353--bBestWestern.Travel-Guide-Filter-Hotels) > > [The Barn - Hostel](https://www.expedia.ca/Vik-I-Myrdal-Hotels-The-Barn.h32596142.Hotel-Information) ### Flights ### Packages > [Mammoth Mountain Ski Resort](https://www.expedia.ca/Mammoth-Mountain-Ski-Resort-Mammoth-Lakes.d6089235.Vacation-Attraction) > > [Antarctica Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Antarctica.d11700.Destination-Travel-Guides)
