Worth the hype! The building and facilities inside were so clean and neat. The lagoon itself was so large you did not feel on top of other people and had plenty of space to explore. We got there first thing on a Monday morning and noticed the huge tour buses of people coming in the afternoon as we were leaving. Thankfully we had beautiful weather too to fully enjoy the experience.

About 30 miles from Reykavik is the Blue Lagoon thermal water spot. Package deals are easily found with transportation and on site amenities if desired. The water is about 100 degrees F, and the water feels good after a short dash from the door with your robe. The water is about 3-5 feet deep and feels really therapeutic. You are provided with 3 different facial masks that is suppose to cleanse and stimulate your skin. Cant get into your eyes or hair as it feels icky. After about one hour and numerous pics, one can have enough and go into the sauna, restaurant or other chill spots on location. Not easy to get to so that is why tours are the best means to access this attraction.

This is truly a must-do if you are visiting the Reykjavik area. There are many tour companies that can get you there so the travel is easy. The facility is lovely, although could be a bit more organized. At first it feels a bit weird putting everything you have with you into a locker and leaving with just a swimsuit and a towel. However, trust the process. The water is absolutely lovely and refreshing. It's a unique experience that I can't recommend enough. Minor issue: the staff is not the most helpful or friendly but they are clearly working hard to keep things moving.

Blue Lagoon is just beautiful and so well organized. You are given a towel, you find a locker, you change and shower, you hand back your towel and enter the hot pool. You get your mud for your face, you have a drink (the blue slushie was fantastic!), you leave the pool, you get a new towel, you get dressed and leave (first going to the cafe or gift shop should you wish). So well organized and so clean. We had a great time!

Last minute trip to Iceland arranged so pre booked visit before arriving as wanted to make sure we were able to visit this natural wonder. We booked a premium package which gave us a robe, choice of 3 masks in the pool and 1 complimentary drink at the bar. Changing room was a little busy upon arrival but there were a few private changing areas available. Loved the pools, so clean and staff on hand to make sure everyone is safe. Trying the different masks was fun and a welcome drink at the pool bar was enjoyed. We didn’t bother with the hassle of taking our mobile phone in, there is a quiet area where no mobiles are allowed which is nice as sometimes you were surrounded by them, staff also asked some members with younger children to observe the rule of being quieter in that area. We had lunch in the cafe afterwards and this was delicious and good choice available. Had a little walk around outside where you can view the waters. A must visit place when visiting Iceland!

I went to the Blue Lagoon with a 2:00 PM reservation. I arrived a little late, maybe 2:30, but no problem. Check-in was east, I got my wrist band (color coded based on which package you purchased), and was told where to go from there. In the locker room I was expecting naked women all over and in the showers but this was not the case at all. There are private changing rooms, put on your bathing suit then off to the private shower where you just pull down your suit to bathe all by yourself in your own shower stall. You can either go I to the lagoon through the outside or there is an indoor entrance and then walk outside in the water. In the water, you get 1 free drink and you face mask(s). They do check your band to see what package you have for the masks initially and I was surprised and impressed that they remember you, they remember which package you have, and they remember which mask you are up to get. They gave you directions as to how long to keep the mask in for and where to rinse it off. I do admit the only thing I was put off by was that the masks all go into the water that everyone is swimming in. The mask area and the drink bar both had lines but they moved quickly. Lava restaurant: nice menu, good food, but I found it overpriced for the taste. For the cost I expected it to be better. Throughout my entire time at the lagoon I never felt rushed. Very relaxing! J lost track of time there which I guess is the point.

I decided to do the public side even though I dislike lines and crowds and loved it. I was with my 15 year old son and was worried if it was too quiet on the private side he might get bored. On the public side there was just enough to do: get your drink, get your face mask, go under the waterfall, go into the steam caves, then repeat. There was even a geo-thermal pool lecture that I enjoyed (he probably did not). If I was with other adults I would have done the spa side for sure. If you go with a Disney-land understanding (expensive, crowded), it's a fun experience. We ate at the restaurant which was ridiculously expensive but was also pretty good. Pro-tip: my hair felt awful for days. I wished I had brought some serious hair masks to undue the drying effect of the minerals.

This is the place if you want to expereince Icelandic hot spring culture, but only if you want to do so with hundreds of your closest friends. We stayed at a nearby hotel and walked here, but most come by the coachful to this iconic spot. The lagoon is quite large, so although there are many people here, you can still enjoy it. The multi-station facial treatment (included with entry fee) is worth doing, as is grabbing an adult beverage (extra fee).

Booked close to our trip so paid more, try book well in advance to save yourself money. You have to put conditioner in your hair before you enter the lagoon. The one they provide isn’t great so bring your own. Everything is paid through the bracelet that you get at the beginning which is great. You can spend as long as you want there so we spent three hours.

So many coaches in the car park on arrival we were worried this was going to be overcrowded. We were wrong! It is so big that there is plenty of room to be spaced out. It is so beautiful, natural hot springs which were breathtaking. The silica mask and drink included in the comfort package were great. Personally, I don't see the need to do the premium package, comfort was enough. I was also worried there would be a hard sell for add on items, I was wrong again. There was no pressure at all. I had read some reviews that it was dirty and looked tired- these reviews are wrong. Not dirty or tired at all. The staff are friendly and so willing to make your time there enjoyable, one lady went out of her way to get us a good photo whilst we were in the water. Overall, a beautiful lagoon that is simply magical.
