North Resort

Opening on 1 December 2026, North Resort is a new adults-only luxury retreat set on the peaceful shores of Lake Miekojärvi in Finnish Lapland, approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes by car from Rovaniemi Airport. Located close to the Arctic Circle, the resort combines contemporary architecture and personalised service with a secluded lakeside setting, providing a base for exploring the surrounding wilderness and experiencing seasonal Arctic activities.

Room options

North Resort offers 14 private villas and two spacious premium suites, all built using northern timber and designed to complement their natural surroundings. The 39.5-square-metre villas feature a lounge area and views of either the lake or forest. For a more indulgent stay, the 71.4-square-metre premium suites include a private sauna, jacuzzi and fireplace, alongside a comfortable living space and scenic views.

Dining

The resort’s restaurant serves seasonal menus showcasing local produce and northern Finnish flavours. Created by chef Kim Mustonen, the three- and five-course dining options combine regional ingredients with contemporary cooking, accompanied by carefully selected wines. With floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the surrounding landscape, the restaurant provides a relaxed setting for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
