The Retreat at Blue Lagoon
HotelEurope, Iceland
From $1,800
The Retreat is a 62-suite hotel built into an 800-year-old lava field on Iceland's Reykjanes Peninsula, less than an hour from Reykjavík. Its architecture follows the landscape, with floor-to-ceiling windows looking out over moss-covered rock, and some suites so close to the lava that you can touch it from the terrace. Guests have access to a private geothermal lagoon reserved for the hotel, as well as the main Blue Lagoon. Below ground, the Retreat Spa offers the Blue Lagoon Ritual, a treatment using the lagoon's own silica, algae and minerals. Moss, the hotel's restaurant, serves seasonal Icelandic cuisine. Each guest has a personal host, who also lets them know when the northern lights appear.
Deplar Farm
HotelEurope, Iceland
From $4,000
Deplar Farm is a remote adventure lodge set in Iceland’s Fljót Valley, surrounded by the mountains of the Troll Peninsula. Once a working sheep farm, the property has been transformed into an intimate 13-room retreat combining Icelandic architecture with an extensive wellness area, including an indoor-outdoor geothermal pool, sauna and flotation tanks. The landscape drives the experience, with heli-skiing in spring and hiking, mountain biking and horseback riding during the warmer months, while its highly inclusive approach covers meals, drinks and most guided activities.
