Villa Taku Finland | 3-Bedroom Villa with Hot Tub in Lusmaniemi Inari

A luxury villa rental in Lusmaniemi, Finland places you on the edge of Paatari Lake, where the water’s surface mirrors the sky and dense forest surrounds your private retreat. Villa Taku Finland comprises two distinct residential structures—a larger primary villa with two bedrooms and a more compact secondary villa with one bedroom—connected by shared amenities yet offering separation that larger groups appreciate. Ten guests can spread across 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, each space designed for genuine comfort rather than compromise.

Inside Villa Taku Finland

Villa Taku Finland sleeps 10 guests across 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms distributed between two interconnected structures. The primary villa contains an open-plan kitchen, living, and dining zone that flows seamlessly into two separate bedroom suites. Bedroom one offers twin single beds; bedroom two mirrors this arrangement with matching twin beds. Both bedrooms connect to their own full bathrooms equipped with essential amenities including hairdryers. A second full bathroom serves the common living areas. The secondary villa maintains its own kitchen, living, and dining space—equally open-plan and fully appointed with modern appliances—alongside a single bedroom furnished with twin beds and one bathroom. Additional sleeping capacity comes via two sofa beds distributed across the villas, accommodating the full complement of ten guests.

Both structures feature sauna facilities and utility rooms housing washing machines and laundry essentials, eliminating the need to pack weeks’ worth of clothing. Dishwashers in each kitchen handle the routine that accumulates when cooking for groups. Central heating and air conditioning maintain comfort year-round; Wi-Fi and television ensure connection to the outside world whenever you choose it. This is the infrastructure of extended family time or friend group retreats—the kind of accommodation where practical considerations fade and genuine relaxation begins.

Outdoor Spaces and Living

Paatari Lake defines the outdoor experience at Villa Taku Finland. A timber pier extends into the water, providing direct access to a shared motorboat available exclusively to villa guests—the kind of arrangement that transforms casual interest in fishing into genuine pursuit. The lake’s fish populations support year-round angling, though summer months (June through August) offer extended daylight for evening expeditions. A sunken hot tub positioned on the private terrace of the primary villa overlooks the water, creating the kind of evening ritual that becomes central to the stay: sunset immersion in steaming water while the forest darkens around you.

The property includes a covered shelter structure ideal for alfresco dining during Finland’s brief but brilliant summer, and a garage providing secure storage for equipment, bicycles, or vehicles. The landscape surrounding both villas transitions from maintained grounds near the structures to increasingly wild forest as you move outward—hiking trails depart in multiple directions from the property, ranging from short lakeside walks (suitable for children) to more demanding forest routes ascending gradual elevations.

Location: Lusmaniemi and the Surrounding Area

Lusmaniemi occupies Finland’s far northeast, approximately 25 kilometres south of Inari, a town of roughly 1,600 residents positioned on Juutuanvuono Lake. Inari functions as the practical hub for Villa Taku Finland guests—a well-stocked supermarket serves basic provisions, and the Sámi Museum Siida (located within Inari proper) documents the indigenous heritage and contemporary life of northern Finland’s original inhabitants. The museum’s exhibits provide essential context for understanding the landscape and cultural traditions surrounding your rental.

Paatari Lake, on whose shores Villa Taku Finland sits, represents one of Lapland’s signature fishing destinations. Arctic char and pike inhabit its waters; local fishing guides operate from Inari’s waterfront if you prefer structured expeditions over independent boat exploration. The lake’s northern arm extends toward the Inari Reindeer Herding Cooperative’s winter pastures—during November through March, reindeer sleigh tours depart from Inari town centre, creating the kind of seasonal experience that defines Finnish Lapland for many visitors.

Winter transforms the region entirely. Cross-country skiing trails wind through forests around Lusmaniemi; the Pyhä-Luosto National Park lies approximately 120 kilometres south and offers downhill skiing at Luosto ski resort. Northern lights (aurora borealis) appear from September through March, with peak frequency and intensity occurring during December and January. Summer brings extended daylight—during late June and early July, the sun barely sets, creating 24-hour twilight conditions that enable evening boat expeditions and forest walks at midnight. The landscape supports foraging for cloudberries, lingonberries, and mushrooms during July and August; local knowledge from rental staff enhances these pursuits considerably.

Ivalo Airport, located approximately 50 kilometres southwest of Villa Taku Finland (roughly 45 minutes by car), serves as the primary arrival point for most international guests. Flights connect Ivalo to Helsinki (1 hour 15 minutes flight time), where onward connections to European and international hubs are abundant. For those seeking alternative routes, Kemi Airport lies 290 kilometres south and Oulu Airport 280 kilometres south, though Ivalo provides the most direct access.

Who This Villa Suits Best

Villa Taku Finland accommodates extended family groups numbering 8-10 people—multi-generational gatherings where grandparents, adult children, and grandchildren require private sleeping spaces yet benefit from shared kitchen and dining infrastructure. The dual-villa setup proves equally suited to two separate families combining their holidays, each occupying one structure while maintaining flexible access to communal facilities.

Couples seeking substantial space with integrated wellness facilities (sauna, hot tub) find Villa Taku Finland appealing, particularly those visiting during winter months when Lapland’s seasonal activities dominate travel planning. The property suits fishing enthusiasts—both casual hobbyists and serious anglers planning multi-day lake expeditions using the shared motorboat.

Families travelling with children (particularly ages 4-16) benefit from the combination of high chairs, cots for younger children, and activity options requiring no specialist equipment—hot tub use, boat exploration, forest walking, and sauna access all accommodate family participation directly. The property’s distance from Lusmaniemi itself (effectively a rural locality rather than a town) means quiet, low-pressure environments without tourist crowds or scheduled activities demanding adherence to timetables.
