Villa Hiisi Lapland Aurora Riverside

Sauna ja rauha

Tucked away in the heart of snow-covered wilderness, this wooden cottage felt like stepping into a winter fairytale. Surrounded by nothing but a pristine white meadow, forests, a frozen lake and endless sky, the sense of peace and seclusion was absolute. If you’re looking to truly disconnect and breathe, this is the place. The cottage itself was exceptional — beautifully built from warm, solid wood that glowed against the icy landscape outside. Every detail felt thoughtful and authentic, combining rustic charm with complete comfort. The fireplace was the soul of the cabin and we enjoyed sitting around the crackling fire. The villa also boasts a beautiful wooden sauna. Juho is a great and accommodating host. And immediately made us feel welcome. The location is wonderfully remote and secluded, offering total privacy without sacrificing comfort, but still in close reach to Ranua. At Ranua zoo we saw many animals. For me personally the polar bears, wolves and the snow owls were the highlight. This cottage wasn’t just accommodation; it was an experience. Absolutely perfect in every way and made for a memorable stay.

I had an amazing holiday staying in a truly beautiful villa. The place was very warm, cozy, and perfectly maintained, which made it ideal for a winter stay in Lapland. The atmosphere was magical, peaceful, and incredibly comfortable — everything we needed for a relaxing and memorable vacation. The owner was absolutely wonderful: very responsible, kind, and caring. He went above and beyond to help us, including assisting with reserving the jacuzzi and later helping us book amazing experiences such as reindeer tours, husky safaris, and snowmobile adventures. His support and local guidance made our trip truly special and stress-free. Communication was excellent, and he made sure we felt welcome and well taken care of throughout our stay. I would highly recommend this villa to anyone looking for a perfect stay in Lapland. An unforgettable experience, and I would happily return without hesitation 🤍❄️

Lapin Villa is the most cozy place we have ever been, it looks like the gingerbread’s house 🥰. Inside they have everything you need and it’s very comfortable, especially for kids. The shower is outside, inside the sauna. Something very new to us, but is worth the experience! Right next to the lake, with an amazing view, we even got the chance to see the Auroras.

Everything was perfect!
