Very nice, you can go in the cold lake and then in the hot pools! Great view as well. They also have a bar on the hot pools.
Not to be missed!

Vok Baths is a must stop if you're in the area. It is small, quiet but perfectly formed with three main pools adajacent to a lake (in which you can take a cooling dip every now and then) a sauna and cooling mist tunnel, as well as luxurious shower facilities and products. Vok also offers a free herbal tea before you leave feeling thoroughly relaxed.

Excellent bath experience. Was not crowded like at the Blue Lagoon. Very peaceful with 3 different baths at 3 different temps. If you are driving by on Ring Road, a worthy stop.
Amazing experience

Incredible experience. We decided to go here instead of the Blue Lagoon because we heard several unpleasant things from the locals about it. Loved being able toto go from the hot baths to the freezing lake! That is optional of course but amazing! Also loved being able to stay as long as we wanted. The tour offered by our cruise ship was very expensive and only allowed an hour at the baths. Be sure to book a taxi service ahead of time if you are going from the cruise port. The Vok baths website has info on the taxis.
