Location and ambiance were great. Staff was terrific. The tasting at the Moss restaurant was great.
United States of AmericaPerfect location, great spa, beautiful view from the room, set of amenities, mini-bar included. Perfectly fresh food for breakfast.
RussiaThe blue lagoon is amazing and beautiful, the hotel has private way to go there and it is very warm. Custom service was very good.
United States of AmericaOf course THE location. The rooms are very comfortable and have a true luxury feel. We stayed in a Moss Suite and it felt very private and we enjoyed the view both day and night very much.
United States of AmericaYou will not truly appreciate how great this place is until you stay here. A bit strange for an American when a whole place slows down this much but wow. They do call it The Retreat
United States of AmericaI decided after much thought to treat myself to spending one night at the retreat. It was so worth it! From the minute you arrive, you are welcomed and well taken care of. I can say enough about this amazing retreat. I stayed on the 2nd floor facing the lava fields. It was so peaceful. There's also a large tub that can be filled with the lagoon water which the front desk can help you with. The room is large and you will feel pampered. I loved the more private pools as well. You can walk around in your robes too in the lobby area. I fortunately had a beautiful warm day to go into the outdoor pools. (August 2019). You do not need to leave the property. There are on-site restaurants. Breakfast is included and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I highly recommend staying here if you can swing it. I'm in my mid 60s so I treated myself. It was the best decision. I only wish that I could have afforded to stay two nights. You will feel totally relaxed.
United States of AmericaEverything! It's gorgeous, the Retreat Lagoon is incredible and private. The ritual is fabulous. Moss Restaurant is divine. And every staff member is attentive and respectful.
New ZealandMost luxurious hotel in Iceland. Unique. Great way to end a visit.
United States of AmericaThe setting is breathtaking but the team are out of this world. I am blown away by their kindness in resolving a small issue I experienced ,which I must say was not within their control, but they were determined to remedy it and in doing so went above and beyond. It made my experience even more unforgettable. Thank you so much
IrelandEverything. Very modern, stylish, food was amazing, fantastic friendly staff, relaxing atmosphere complete 10/10 - and then there was the lagoon. Worth every penny, would love to go again.
