At a glance

The Retreat is the only hotel with direct access to the Blue Lagoon’s geothermal waters, and Iceland’s most acclaimed luxury address. Set within an ancient lava field on the Reykjanes Peninsula, the 60-suite hotel is built around a private lagoon, a subterranean spa, and some of the most dramatic volcanic scenery on earth.

Suites are serene, minimalist spaces where floor-to-ceiling windows frame moss-covered lava and, in the higher categories, step-out access to the Retreat Lagoon itself. Every stay includes unlimited lagoon and spa access, gourmet breakfast, and morning yoga overlooking the volcanic frontier.

Dining reaches its peak at Moss Restaurant, which holds a Michelin star and draws on Iceland’s finest seasonal produce, making The Retreat as compelling a destination for food lovers as it is for those seeking serious wellness.

From Lapland to Iceland, these remote Arctic lodges deliver the Northern Lights with all the luxuries you desire.

Iceland 6 min read

Iceland sits on one of the world’s most geothermally active zones, a land where the earth literally steams beneath your feet. But beyond the dramatic geology lies a centuries-old wellness culture that harnesses these natural forces to restore body and mind.

Kenya’s most compelling honeymoon itinerary moves between two entirely different worlds: the wildlife-dense plains of the Maasai Mara and the ancient coral-stone quietude of Lamu Island. Together, they form a journey that is both dramatically varied and precisely calibrated for couples seeking depth over spectacle.

While the Masai Mara dominates Kenya’s safari conversation, Laikipia Plateau has quietly assembled one of Africa’s most compelling luxury wildlife destinations across its network of private conservancies. Here, exclusivity is structural rather than marketed; it takes the form of land, access, and a conservation model that keeps the crowds out by design.
