点评:Neither of us thought we'd be huge fans of the Icelandic thermal spa experience. I like a good soak in a hot tub, but perhaps not in 50 degree weather (11 C). My wife even less so. And neither of us was crazy about the whole public changing room experience followed by naked showers and all that (thankfully sex segregated at least). But... to our surprise, we liked it a lot more than we thought we would.
First, it was very uncrowded, at least at 1:30 PM. Later in the afternoon, it got a bit more crowded, but never overwhelming. Did not feel like a tourist trap like some of the more popular ones in Reykjavik.
The facilities are very clean. We got over the whole naked shower part, and my wife said that there are private changing rooms (though I didn't see one).
The drinks are decently priced for Iceland. And the water felt good after a half day of hiking. I wasn't cold at all, even walking between pools. But unlike the larger facilities, you don't have to walk far between pools anyway, as there are only three pools (plus a cold plunge).
Best of all, the views are beautiful. Very pleasant and serene experience.
翻译:我们俩都没想到自己会如此喜欢冰岛的温泉体验。我虽然喜欢泡在热水浴缸里,但在50度(11摄氏度)的天气里就不太想这么做了。我妻子更是不喜欢。我们俩也都不太能接受那种在公共更衣室里换衣服、然后裸着身子淋浴的体验(好在男女是分开的)。不过……令我们惊讶的是,我们喜欢这次体验的程度远远超出了预期。
首先,那里人很少,至少下午1点半的时候是这样。到了下午晚些时候……虽然人稍微多了一些,但也并不算拥挤不堪。这里并不像雷克雅未克其他一些热门浴场那样像是专门吸引游客的地方。
设施非常干净。我们克服了对于“裸体淋浴”的顾虑,我妻子还说这里有私人更衣室(不过我没见到)。
在冰岛来说,这里的饮品价格还算合理。徒步半天后,泡在水里感觉舒服极了。即便在各个泳池间走动,我也完全不觉得冷。不过,与那些规模更大的浴场相比……反正各个泳池之间不用走太远,因为总共就三个泳池(还有一个冷水浴池)。
最棒的是,这里的景色十分优美。真是一次惬意又宁静的体验啊。
