Know Before You Go

This ticket excludes anything not explicitly mentioned. Make sure to check local rules and weather before going. Plan ahead because there may not be many places to stay or things to buy nearby.

Review Summary
Customers generally say Hvammsvík Hot Springs delivers a spectacular, intimate thermal bathing experience that rivals or surpasses Iceland's larger commercial options like the Blue Lagoon. Reviewers consistently praise the stunning fjord setting, natural pools at varying temperatures, swim-up bar with quality drinks, and the exceptional professionalism of staff members—particularly Operations Manager Hákon. However, visitors note some operational inconsistencies including long wait times at the restaurant during peak hours, limited shuttle schedules (with 1:30 PM departures mentioned), occasional customer service gaps, and small changing facilities. Wildlife sightings like seals and dolphins add to the magic, and most guests recommend the Comfort package for water shoes and amenities given the uneven ground terrain. Overall, the facility excels as a less-crowded alternative to Iceland's busier thermal attractions, though operational improvements in dining service and scheduling would enhance the experience.
