Evocative and ancient geothermal pool - Charming and charming geothermal pool, the oldest in Iceland. Immersed in a beautiful landscape is a must-see. It is open until 8pm and after a busy day exploring the wonders of Iceland it was really pleasant and relaxing to spend a few hours in the warm waters of this natural pool. The price is 24 euros. Very well organized changing rooms and communal showers.

Warm all year round - A perfect end to an active day in rain and wind. We were wet and cold but with good team and sank well into the warm water with low rock bottom. The bathroom received continuous supply of hot water from geysers around. There is made a tree-path around so you can walk to see, get with you an outburst from the active geyser and feel the acid smell of sulfur. The shower, however, was small mtp the large facility but the wardrobe was large. Lots of room. We recommend bringing your own towel as this (of course) costs extra. Would like to come back here as I consider this a family friendly place

Mandatory stage - Great place, Recommendation to everyone to go here to relax. Ample parking, friendly staff. Before entering the lagoon you have to take a shower completely naked, the showers stocked with shower shampoo and conditioner, spotless changing rooms with personal lockers, I found the dryer for costume and towel very comfortable. As for the lagoon, what can I say, I was speechless, after a long way traveled to visit Iceland we relaxed a lot, the place is fantastic and Recommendation to everyone, mandatory stop❤️

Really nice place - Not crowded - It was a relaxing experience. Didn’t feel crowded. Can’t compare it to anything else as it was the only hot water bath we went to. Great experience.

Great place - Nice out of the way lagoon. Facilities were very clean and staff were welcoming. Nice alternative to fancy big spas. Really enjoyed more rustic environment on the Golden Circle.

All right. - Little, but okay. Good and warm bath, but could have been cleaner. The service was nice, but would like to smile a little occasionally.

Must visit if your first time - It was very crowded. We paid for 8 people and no one was there to even check who all went in. Bathrrom were also very crowded. But they were clean.

Beautiful Place But Too Crowded - This place is beautiful and charming. However our family of 4 arrived just before opening at 10:00 and 3 tour busses pulled up behind us. I’m not sure what the place’s entry capacity is but it was way too crowded to be enjoyable. We left after around 20 minutes. Can’t fault the Secret Lagoon except maybe don’t allow so many people in at a given time. Would have gladly paid double the entry fee (or more) to have had fewer people. But I understand that being on the Golden Circle that might not be possible.
