Latest developments in wellness travel

A new 5-star hotel and spa has opened at one of Iceland’s most popular tourist destinations, the Blue Lagoon. The Retreat Hotel features a minimalist and modern design, with each of the 62 suites offering remarkable views out to the surrounding lagoon and volcanic landscape. As well as a more secluded access to the geothermal lagoon, the Retreat Spa offers guests a range of luxurious in-water massage and beauty treatments. At the top of the list of spa treatment must-tries is the Blue Lagoon Ritual which involves journeying through three cavernous chambers at the Retreat, while polishing and exfoliating your way through with the natural silica, algae and minerals of the geothermal water.
