Arctic Villa Aava is a kelo log cabin nestled by Kaunispää fell in Saariselkä — a place where the nature of Lapland is present in every season. In spring the fells awaken, in summer the sun never sets. In autumn the ruska ignites and in winter silence descends with the snow.

Days fill with experiences. Evenings settle into the warmth of the sauna.

Aava is more than accommodation. It is a feeling you remember.

Kelo wood, fire and the silence of the north

Kelo log building is the oldest building tradition of the north — wood that has already lived through everything, now carrying its story in the walls. Three bedrooms, a spacious living room, a newly renovated sauna and a terrace under the stars. Room to breathe, room to be.
