Highlight of our trip! - Highlight of our entire Icelandic trip! I did Blue Lagoon last time I was here and this was superior. Less people, the lagoon is more beautiful. We were there during a snowstorm and it was just pure magic. We loved the ritual. Especially the scrub followed by the steam bath. I highly recommend!

Loved it! - Loved this experience, especially the 7 step ritual. We went at 4.30pm in October which allowed us to see the spa at all times of day which was fabulous. Highly recommend both the sky lagoon and the time slot we booked in for. We got to see sunset as well which was stunning! ☺️

Calming, relaxing and refreshing - Beautiful and calm atmosphere. It was the perfect way to start our honeymoon in Iceland. I would highly recommend doing this activity the day of landing to refresh and relax.

Mature experience and great jjway to relax. Best lagoon - Strongly recommend Sky Lagoon for an elevated mature experience. I have been to the other popular Lagoon on a different trip and Sky Lagoon was much nicer. Very clean. Not over-crowded. No waits for drinks. 7 step ritual was great. Easy to get to by taxi, only 10-15 min from Reykjavik. If you’re going by taxi, I recommend having your hotel call and arrange a taxi for you to pick you up as we were told it is cheaper to have a standard fee taxi compared to metered taxi which are also available there. Regret not bringing my cellphone waterproof bag. They do sell the waterproof bags, hats, and sunglasses at the bar though. It was more than people just taking selfies, we were relaxing. No young children, maybe older mature teens with their parents, maybe.

Don’t miss it! - I can’t recommend this more! My husband was so unsure of what I was taking him to after a long flight and no sleep. When we got into the lagoon he became a believer. And when we went deeper in and saw how amazing the entirety of it was I didn’t think he’d leave. lol.
We did the 7 step ritual it was a wonderful experience. I had already put my phone away because the waterproof case I had brought- failed(they do sell phone bags on site if you didn’t bring your own) and quite honestly just being in the moment was so much better. For the ritual even if you have your case - they have you put your phone in a locker so you just experience it. I wish more of life was like that. They offer a bar in the lagoon for both alcohol and non-alcohol which was fun to share the experience when one of us was driving. I have a couple pics- don’t judge our enjoyment from our tired look lol We were relaxed and refreshed and my husband is already talking about taking another trip back.
I did do the Ser package as personally I don’t want to shower and change in a room with others. The private rooms were lovely

Worth every penny - This was the best part of our trip to Iceland. Highly recommend booking through Viator to get the full experience. We got to be in the couples side which felt more private and intimate and do the full 7 step ritual.

A great time - but a few smiley faces wouldn’t go a miss!!! - Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Sky Lagoon.
However, we would strongly recommend making it clearer that children aged 13 and 14 are required to present ID upon entry. This detail was not clearly communicated in our booking confirmation or on the website, which made the check-in process unnecessarily stressful (We later found it hidden away in the FAQ) . While bringing passports isn’t an issue, scrambling to locate digital proof of age on our phones at the entrance was far from ideal.
Once inside, the experience was lovely — though a few friendly smiles from the team in the sauna area would have added a warmer touch.
We arrived at 2pm, and by 4pm the lagoon had become quite crowded, so future visitors may want to plan accordingly.
We’re giving 4 stars overall, mainly due to the check-in experience. A heads-up to other families: ID is required for kids aged 13 and 14 — don’t forget it!

Little bang for your buck - Significantly overpriced for what is offered. can get more done at a kspa for roughly the same price. You do overlook the ocean, so you get a chance to see whales if you're lucky. Drinks and food are insanely expensive: 20,000 isk for a charcuterie board, 750isk for coco, and 1090 isk for Arizona ice tea. The bar in the lagoon is just as expensive.
