For Japan-Finland stopover travelers
Helsinki stopover with a private Finnish sauna and villa stay
Add a quiet Finnish nature, sauna and villa experience to your Helsinki stopover. Villa Långstrand is about 90 minutes from Helsinki Airport and can be arranged in advance for private groups of up to 5 guests.
A prepared private experience
A different way to spend one or two nights in Finland
Many travelers from Japan pass through Helsinki on the way to or from Europe. Instead of spending another night in a city hotel, Villa Långstrand offers a private Finnish villa stay with sauna, smoke sauna by advance arrangement, outdoor jacuzzi, clean air, quiet nature and access to the shoreline.
This is not an ad hoc service or a same-day activity. The stay is prepared in advance around your flight times, group size and wishes. Transportation, food arrangements, sauna, smoke sauna and optional private chef service can all be planned before arrival.
What makes it special
Real luxury in Finland is quiet, warmth and clean air
For many guests, real luxury in Finland is not formality or excess. It is quiet nature, clean air, warm sauna, a private outdoor jacuzzi, unhurried time and a peaceful place to sleep well after a long journey.
Finnish sauna and smoke sauna
A traditional Finnish smoke sauna can be arranged as part of selected stays when reserved in advance. It offers soft heat, deep calm and a sense of Finnish tradition that is difficult to experience in a hotel.
Private villa atmosphere
The stay is private and quiet, prepared for your group only. It is best suited for guests who want nature, privacy, comfort and a calm Finnish atmosphere.
Nature close to Helsinki
The property is close to the sea, with access to shoreline areas, piers and coastal nature. The villas are not directly on the shoreline, but guests can enjoy the wider private coastal setting.
