This island nation has intrigued travelers for countless generations, and although the name itself seems to say everything, the truth couldn’t be more different. From nightlife to incredible spa and wellness getaways, there is a lot to do.
I’ve often wondered what a spa vacation to Iceland would be like. It isn’t just about the infamous “Polar Bear Club” though, where what I would consider “crazy” people jump, dip and sometimes bath in frigid arctic waters just to prove… oh, I don’t think it proves anything.
But Iceland has incredible deals on Spa & Wellness packages that take advantage of the more sublime aspects of the island. Take for example the natural pools and geysers fed by very deep cracks in the earth that are heated by long-dormant volcanoes. The geothermal pools are said to have medicinal, and perhaps even spiritual powers to revive the world-weary.
Reykjavik has beautiful hotels, great restaurants, dynamic people, and because they aren’t the “typical” destination you’ll find fewer tourists, and even more chances to rub elbows with the locals and find out what makes Iceland so unique.
Iceland Air is extending their packages through April, so you can take advantage of their lowest pricing. Packaging air and hotel adds even more value to the off-season, and is accessible non-stop from Boston and Seattle.
