Vacation rentals in Purola

Finnish cottage dream at its best! Right by the water, the hammocks climbs in the wind and in the direction of the evening sun. The cottage has all the amenities and very clean. The wooden sauna had a soft steam and the sandy bottom of the beach crowned the experience. And best of all, just an hour's drive to Helsinki! Thanks to the hostess!!

We had a wonderful holiday season at Larissa's island vacation home. Our 3 families felt right at home in this large, very personal house in the southern archipelago of Finland, from the shot and yet quite close to Kotka and Helsinki. From the airport it is only an hour to the jetty and from there you will soon be on the island. The cottage is wonderfully located on the southern tip of the island. There is plenty of space to linger inside (4 separate bedrooms are really exceptional) and outside, sun and wind all day. This is how the weeks are (too) fast. The kitchen is very well equipped. Even with a large chalkboard, everything is not a test, again both indoors and outdoors. The new sauna gets warm quickly. It offers a beautiful view to the sea. Larissa is a great host and so we had very nice days. I fully recommend Villa Vonkka, assuming some experience in island life.

The interior architecture and design are very well-representative of the countryside houses in Finland. There is a wonderful wood-burning sauna and two fireplaces to keep the house sufficiently warm. The kitchen has all the necessary tools and amenities for cooking. One thing to note though is that the fridge doesn’t have a freezer. The house is by a little picturesque hill with pines, birches and rocks covered in moss. On the side of the house, there’s a yard and a grilling side with a nice view to the open fields.

A personal home in the peace of the countryside, and comfortable hosts. Thanks for the opportunity to have breakfast. Definitely could stay again.

We had a relaxing weekend with friends at this property☺️

Beautiful and cozy house by the sea with a great view. I loved a lot on the deck! Good kitchen equipment, spices, dry goods, etc., and comfortable beds. There may be traffic from the boat dock next door and in the summer, not very private. However, during our stay, we just didn't see anyone, and we were left alone 😊

An atmospheric home that fully matched the listing. Plenty of space, interesting decorating details, and peace of the countryside. I'd love to come back!

Great apartment in a great location. Communicate with the host seamless, host flexible on schedules. Highly recommended.
