Apartment on the shores of Lake Ranuan

5 out of 5 average rating, 43 reviews1 month ago

We had a great time at Eija's place. It's as nice as the pictures suggest and a good starting place for exploring northern Finland. As a general tip, I'd recommend traveling by car, then you can easily reach several national parks and other sights in the area, as well as Rovaniemi. The area is calm, the frozen lake and snowy scenery make for a serene retreat. Eija was always quick to respond, helpful and friendly. Definitely recommended!

“Wonderful stay in Maula” We had a fantastic stay at this cozy Airbnb! The place was just as described – modern, clean and very well equipped. We especially liked the breathtaking view of the Finnish countryside and the tranquility of the surroundings. The hosts were incredibly kind and helpful. They gave us great tips for activities in the area and made us feel comfortable at all times. We would particularly like to highlight the sauna, which was a real highlight – ideal for relaxing after an active day. The location was also excellent. We were lucky enough to see the Northern Lights several times. We highly recommend this place and would stay here again anytime!

Villa Salmijärvi

4.91 out of 5 average rating, 23 reviews3 months ago

We recently stayed in Minnas house and it was just perfect. The house is beautiful inside and is very cozy and homely. It has fantastic views out the back looking over the frozen lake and there is a little hill down to the lake which the kids used for sledding (Minna had lots of sleighs left outside for the kids to use which was very kind). The location is great as its in a little quite neighborhood in nature but also only a short drive to shops and the centre. Minna is a great host and is very reachable and quick to answer any questions. Thanks for having us.

We had a great stay at Aapo's place. The location directly on the Baltic Sea coast in connection with the grill hut and the sauna is unique. The property is very well equipped. Aapo responded flexibly to our need for a baby bed and provided it to us - thank you very much for that. We 100% recommend the place.

Emppu was a fantastic host! For starters, the house is typically equipped with one full bed. I advised him that my son was coming with me and that I would need more than one bed. He rearranged the room brought in a second mattress and it was perfect. I had hired a car service to pick us up at the airport and advised him what time we would be there and he offered to pick us up at the airport which he did and he also brought us back to the airport when it was time for us to go. He knew this was the first time in many generations that my family has gone back to Finland as we are Finnish. He knew how important and special this trip was for my son and I and he went out of his way to make sure we had everything we need often a ride so we wouldn’t have to take Ubers and gave us wonderful recommendations. I cannot say enough about how kind he was and made the trip with my son very memorable! When I go back to Finland with more of my family. I will definitely be staying with him again.
