Villa in Rovaniemi
Reasons to book
About this villa rental
Hand-carved log walls, a wall-sized window to the lake, a real Finnish sauna, fireplaces indoors and out, and a terrace with no artificial light — so the northern lights appear in full.
135 m², 3 bedrooms, sleeps 9.
Willa Lumia is 135 m² designed by architect Jouko Rytkönen for this exact spot on the shore of Lake Norvajärvi. The interior is Scandinavian calm meeting the traditional Finnish log house: hand-carved log walls — rare today — quality materials, craftsmanship and design classics.
LIVING AREA
The kitchen, dining area and living room form one open space, so nobody is left out of the conversation. One wall is almost entirely window, framing the lake and the changing Lapland seasons. A fireplace warms the room on dark evenings.
BEDROOMS — Sleeps 9
- Bedroom 1: one wide double bed
- Bedroom 2: one extra-wide double bed + 2 single beds
- Bedroom 3: one extra-wide double bed, with heated skylights above the bed — watch the stars, and the auroras, from your pillow
- Living room: 1 sofa bed
SAUNA
An authentic Finnish sauna with dark timber walls and an electric stove — ready whenever you are, no firewood, no waiting. Step straight from the sauna onto the terrace: swim from the pier in summer, or roll in the snow in winter.
TERRACE & SHORE
A large terrace with an outdoor fireplace and grill, 15 metres from the water. There are no artificial lights in the yard, which is exactly why the northern lights look the way they do here. Your own private sand beach are steps away.
PRACTICAL COMFORT
- Room-by-room heating and air conditioning
- Warm garage and an EV charging point
- Free Wi-Fi throughout
- Fully equipped kitchen
- Bed linen and towels included
Willa Lumia sits in its own quiet on Lake Norvajärvi, a little above the Arctic Circle, yet everything in Rovaniemi is close:
- Rovaniemi Airport — 7 km (15 min)
- Santa Claus Village & Santa`s Main Post Office — 9.5 km
- SantaPark — 10 km
- Rovaniemi city centre, Arktikum, Korundi, Lordi`s Square — 14 km
- Arctic Golf — 13.5 km
Winter brings husky and reindeer safaris, snowmobiling, ice fishing and aurora hunting — all bookable nearby. Summer brings the midnight sun, swimming straight off your own beach, berry and mushroom forests, and evenings by the fire that never quite turn to night.
A rental car is the easiest way to enjoy the area, and parking is free and private at the villa, with an EV charging point on the wall. Taxis from the airport take about 15 minutes. Most tour operators in Rovaniemi offer pick-up.
The entire villa, sauna, terrace, garage and private shoreline are yours alone — no shared spaces, no other guests, no neighbours in sight.
We are a local team and we answer messages 24/7 if you need anything at all.
- Willa Lumia is a home for quiet holidays and time in nature. We do not host stag/hen parties or other party groups, and events are not permitted.
- No pets, and the villa is entirely non-smoking.
- Check-in starting at 17:000, check-out by 11:00. Please let us know your estimated arrival time in advance.
- Children of all ages are welcome. Cots and extra beds are not available.
- Ice swimming, snow rolling and use of the lake are at your own risk.
- The northern lights are a natural phenomenon — we cannot promise them, but with no artificial light in the yard and a clear night, your odds here are excellent. September–March is the season.
