Wonderful staff, peaceful. In the middle of the woods on the lake

Beautiful location & view of nature (in our case snowy trees.) Modern, well-appointed with nice appliances. The heated floors were wonderful! Very comfortable beds. Lovely sauna and showers. Kimmo was kind and quick to respond when we needed him. Highly recommended!

Our December stay at Villa Paadar was truly unforgettable and exceeded all our expectations. Nestled in a serene, snow-covered landscape, the villa offered an unparalleled combination of luxury, privacy, and comfort, making it the perfect destination for a winter retreat. The peacefulness of the secluded location allowed us to fully disconnect from the hustle and bustle of everyday life and immerse ourselves in the beauty of nature. The villa itself was immaculate and thoughtfully equipped with high-quality amenities. The electric sauna was a highlight—perfect for warming up after exploring the icy surroundings—and the outdoor jacuzzi on the deck was absolutely breathtaking. Relaxing in the bubbling hot water, surrounded by a quiet forest blanketed in snow, was a surreal experience. It felt like a scene straight out of a winter postcard, and we spent hours just soaking in the stunning views and crisp air. The interior of the villa was just as impressive. The attention to detail made it feel warm and welcoming, from the beautifully decorated Christmas tree glowing in the window to the cozy fireplace that created a perfect ambiance. It truly felt like a home away from home, but with a luxurious touch. Every corner of the villa was spotless, and the furniture and decor were of the highest standard. One thing that stood out was the hospitality of the host. Their regular, friendly check-ins ensured that we had everything we needed and felt completely taken care of throughout our stay. This level of attentiveness added a personal touch that made our visit even more special. That said, the villa is quite remote, which is part of its charm, but it’s essential to have a car. Inari, a quaint village about 27 minutes away, has a few restaurants, a souvenir shop, gas stations, and grocery stores. For more extensive options, Ivalo is about an hour’s drive. We recommend stocking up on supplies on your way to the villa to fully enjoy the peaceful seclusion once you arrive.

Everything was absolutely great. Kaya the wonderful host welcomed us with kindness. The house was amazing. We'll equipped, very clean, had everything we needed. Hitted floors was an amazing bonus! The location is great right by the river. No disturbance. Just perfect.

We didn't have enough time, but there are lots of free activities you can do.

The villa was really exactly as the photos and spacious enough for a group of three. The amenities were complete, especially the kitchen. The wifi works perfectly and the TV can even play Netflix. The heating works great! Tero and Kimmo were very quick to respond to our questions. It was also nice to have a touch of Christmas with a tree decorated inside the villa.

This is our standard against which we will evaluate all other places in northern Lapland. Unbelievable. It has both a minimalist vibe while providing everything you need. We even approached Tero about buying the place. Superbly sited, quiet, northern lights on both the front and back of the house, a reasonably short drive to buy provisions in Inari or hike around Lemmenjoki.
