12 Historic European Spas and Bathhouses for a Wellness Getaway | Condé Nast Traveler

"Providing all-day amusement and relaxation in the form of a capacious milky—and mineral-rich— blue lagoon (about 100 degrees Fahrenheit), steam baths, and a swim-up bar serving both hard and soft drinks, this bathhouse is popular among visitors and locals alike. Located less than 300 miles from Reykjavík , Mývatn is a worthy stop and stayover on the Iceland trail, and the geothermal baths of Mývatn, a designated nature reserve, provides a deeply edifying respite from some of the country’s more active pursuits. Although you’re unlikely to be surprised by the stunning Northern Icelandic scenery at this point, the peaceful, pleasant surroundings with views for days doesn’t hurt." - Stacey Lastoe

I would probably have rated this higher if I hadn't experienced how great the spa named Vök was. Because the contrast between the changing rooms between the two was impossible to ignore. Mud on the floor, no dry spaces, no private changing booths, and people everywhere. The smell of sulfur was tolerable and worth it for the color and experiance of the nature bath, and once in the water the place was spacious enough for relaxation. The surroundings are also very pretty. We were not bothered by the renovations at all and I do hope the new building will offer better changing rooms.

Enjoyed our trip to the Myvatn Nature Bath which is a mid-level nature bath. There are two large pools and two small pools and steam rooms. This is definitely good for families with kids. It's nice that they provide drinking water everywhere. You can also order drinks from the swim up bar.

I liked this place. They have two pools and one smaller that’s very hot! Loved it. They offer shampoo and conditioner so you can shower afterwards There is a nice mini market and coffee shop. I think its worth it but hoped a rental towel was included in the price

The Blue lagoon in iceland was closed due to a volcanic eruption near by. And then we found Mývatn Nature Baths. Much cheaper and in a beautiful location. You get the same experience and not as much crowd. It is a fantastic experience of geothermal spa. There are two big pools and the views from the pools are pretty cool. We did not need to pre-book. We loved our experience here.

Drawing on a centuries-old tradition, Mývatn Nature Baths offer bathers a completely natural experience that begins with a relaxing dip amidst clouds of steam rising up from a fissure deep in the Earth's surface, and ends with a luxurious swim in a pool of geothermal water drawn from depths of up to 2.500 meters.

Compared to the Blue Lagoon, this is smaller but feels cleaner and cozier, with a more beautiful view. However, towel rental costs extra, so it’s better to bring your own.

An Incredible Geothermal Experience Visited today and had an amazing time at Mývatn Nature Baths. I purchased the regular entrance pass with a towel online from the US, and check-in was seamless—they scanned my QR code, gave me a locker coin, and clear instructions. The atmosphere was peaceful and relaxing, with friendly, welcoming staff and very clean facilities. The highlight was soaking in the warm geothermal waters while overlooking the lake—absolutely stunning views. It was a rejuvenating, calming, and thoroughly enjoyable experience. If you're in the area or looking for an alternative to the Blue Lagoon, this is a fantastic choice—less expensive, less crowded, but equally memorable. Highly recommended!
