Havas Lodge - Rare Arctic Luxury

A once-in-a-lifetime off-grid experience for 2–8 guests

Travel across a frozen lake to a secluded island, where a handcrafted log lodge awaits in the silence of the Lapland wilderness.

Havas Lodge offers a rare opportunity to stay in the heart of Arctic nature, away from roads, crowds and everyday distractions. Although the lodge feels wonderfully remote, you are never truly alone. Your hosts at Lapland Deluxe live nearby at Saariniemi Estate. They personally prepare the lodge, arrange your transfers, welcome you on arrival and remain available throughout your stay.

This allows you to enjoy the silence, privacy and adventure of the wilderness with the comfort and reassurance of experienced local hosts close by.

The spacious log lodge accommodates up to eight guests and includes three bedrooms and a spacious traditional Finnish living room. Large floor-to-ceiling windows face north, opening onto the winter landscape and offering the chance to admire the Northern Lights directly from the warmth of the lodge.

The lodge is heated traditionally with a large Finnish baking oven and wood-burning stoves. Soft LED lighting creates a warm and peaceful atmosphere, and electricity is available for lighting and charging small personal devices.

A separate traditional wood-fired sauna completes the experience.

Your transfer to Havas Lodge is personally arranged by your local hosts using professional winter equipment. Every journey is carefully planned according to weather, ice and snow conditions to ensure a safe and comfortable arrival.
