Beach Hotels in Ivalo

Had a lovely stay — the host was absolutely awesome! The place was super clean, spacious, and had such a nice vibe throughout. Would definitely recommend.

Very calm, quiet, privacy and beautiful amazing location.

Great studio, equipped with everything you could need. Short walk to town and fantastic host. Would stay again.

Cozy apartment with all you need included. Great views and friendly staff.

Beautiful cottage. It’s a way out of town (check the map) we didn’t have a car but Miia kindly arranged pickup and drop off with a stop at the shops for food. I absolutely loved my stay but I’ve detailed a few differences with this cottages to what you might expect so that you can get an accurate impression. The most important thing is the cottage does not have running water or a bathroom. You will need to bring drinking water, and water for washing/dishes/sauna is hand pumped from a well outside. There is an outside composting toilet, which is perfectly fine and was not difficult to use even as I was there in winter… I just needed to put on a jacket and shoes and was comfortable. The stairs are very steep, not suitable for anyone unsteady on their feet. Downstairs is the bunk bed. Upstairs has a double bed and a single bed (no walls or doors though, it’s an open mezzanine level). Wood for the fire is included and you use dried bark as the firelighters. The central heating kept the house warm even without the fire. The Sauna is attached to the side of the house and uses a wood fire. It takes a couple of hours to heat up. There is also a big water tank in the sauna which uses a wood fire beneath to heat up, you can use this water for washing in the sauna. The instructions state only to use one lot of wood under the tank which was good advice as it got very hot and any more would have made it boil which would be dangerous. Miia also gave us use of a battery powered camping shower so we could wash easily. The cottage is on the river which is completely frozen over winter. It is walking distance from Villa Karhukumpu which we used for activities, where Jrki the owner was very kind and helpful. Overall I found Miia to be extremely helpful as a host, and the place is as beautiful as the pictures.

Very clean, nice and comfortable.

Semi remote area, wonderful views, peace & quiet, great Hosts

The house really was a home and had so many homey amenities. We loved the sauna and the views of the river. It was quite and felt secluded but only about a km from town. As it was -5 to -14 we had a hire car and if you want to do some of the activities highly recommend a hire car

The apartment was amazing. Spacious and quiet. A good distance away from the city: 50min walk to the supermarket in Ivalo. Also we were lucky enough to see the northern lights right over the house like in photos shown. The host was fantastic as well very friendly and helpful. The apartment is supplied with everything you need and check in/out was very easy. We couldn't recommend this place enough.

Our stay in Väre home was absolutely outstanding and exceeded all our expectations. The property was beautiful and homely with a well-equipped kitchen that made it easy to prepare meals and enjoy the cozy evenings indoors. The highlight of our stay was the private sauna house, where we enjoyed a truly unforgettable experience of relaxing in the sauna and dipping into a frozen lake—a perfect touch of Finnish tradition. The location was ideal, just 5 minutes from the airport and 15 minutes from the city, yet wonderfully peaceful. We could watch the Northen lights from the property without the need to travel. The host was incredibly welcoming and went above and beyond to ensure we had everything we needed. Overall, this accommodation was worth every penny, and we highly recommend it to anyone visiting Ivalo!
