Terva-Karko torppa in Suvanto Museum Village

This is not often the kind of place to stay on Airbnb. A more than 130-year-old log cabin in the cultural heritage landscape of Suvanto takes its residents on a time journey to a 19th-century Ostrobothnian village. The destination is best suited for lovers of Lapland's nature, history and silence, who are not afraid of the dark in winter or mosquitoes in summer. Please note: there is no public transportation to the village, no toilet in the main building, nor a shower. There is a separate sauna building outside and a traditional outhouse behind the sauna.

Cottage in the middle of nature

IdaRating, 5 stars2 months ago

Very lovely and cozy setting. The cottage was clean and also very beautiful, both outside and inside, as was the whole of Luosto's log village area. There were beautiful views of the fell from the windows. You can get to the ski track within walking distance and other Luosto services just a short distance away. Also a big plus for bringing a pet, my cat was great at the cottage like we did! I recommend for those who appreciate peaceful nature travel. Thanks to the host too, communication worked and the setting was the best! :)

Chalet Charmant in Rovaniemi by the lake

AndreaRating, 5 stars2 months ago

Hanna’s place was absolutely dreamy 💛 beautiful private cottage right on frozen lake where the ice was constantly making noise depending on what the weather was doing (deep freezing or warming up) - we could easily walk across the lake as other people were snowmobiling on it. Hanna even had a device there to create your own hole in the frozen lake to soak after sauna - or possibly ice fish. Sauna, fireplace, billiard, northern lights and husky ride were our highlights. Hanna was extremely easy to reach, sent easy to understand instructions, and was very helpful anytime we had questions. Many times went above and beyond just to make our stay more memorable. We created the most amazing memories there from our family vacation in Finland. This was our first time and most definitely not the last!

A spacious living area is displayed, featuring a large couch positioned along a textured rug. Natural light floods through a floor-to-ceiling window, revealing a snowy landscape outside. A few small tables are visible, creating a cozy yet open atmosphere.

Kimmelvilla - Wilderness in your living room

MarinaRating, 5 stars6 months ago

We arrived late, having the coded door for check in was a great start. The home was warm and inviting. It had everything you will need, the owners even left us a welcome bottle of Prosecco 😍. Communication from the owners before, during and after was excellent. Highly recommend this accommodation… we saw the northern lights from our bedroom window and I can’t tell you how close you are to the ski slopes. The sauna is like something out of a movie…. We enjoyed an evening in here while watching the kids play in the snow …. Bliss 🙌🏼….Amazing stay start to Finnish

Kuuru Lakeside Suites

AnnaRating, 5 stars3 months ago

The accommodation is a dream and the view from the bed was special. The communication was good, it was a very clean and modern accommodation. The check-in and communication went smoothly. The accommodation is also perfectly located for excursions in Salla. We would book the accommodation again anytime! Unfortunately we have to deduct one point at check-in. When we arrived at the accommodation in the evening, all the heating was off. The flat felt as cold as outside. We first had to deal with the heaters and see how they turned on. It would have been nice to have some basic warmth in the flat and not end up in a freezing cold flat. Therefore, the arrival was unfortunately not relaxed and it took some time for the flat to heat up. This could definitely be improved for future guests. Nevertheless, we had a great stay and can recommend this accommodation.
