Elsanranta Villa

Sahanlahti Elsanranta features ten luxury villas for two, set on a private peninsula that feels almost like an island. The natural surroundings have been preserved in their original state, and the peninsula is reached via a private road lit year-round.

At Elsanranta, guests can immerse themselves in the beauty of Lake Saimaa while enjoying first-class services, modern design, and sustainable choices — a combination that ensures a truly unique Saimaa experience.

Each villa offers unobstructed lake views that can be enjoyed from the terrace, the sauna, or the private Drop pool. The villas include a bedroom, a living area, a bathroom with an adjoining sauna, and a spacious terrace with outdoor seating. From the large deck and pool, guests can admire the starlit sky — and with a little luck, even spot the rare Saimaa ringed seal.

Designed for two, the villas feature interiors inspired by the surrounding nature. Built from sustainable materials with energy-efficient solutions, they are connected by wooden walkways and arranged to ensure complete privacy.

Guests have free use of bicycles, a rowing boat, and kick sledges to travel between Elsanranta and Sahanlahti’s restaurants and services. The restaurants are just a few hundred meters away — a pleasant short row in summer or a fun kick sledge ride in winter. Each villa also has its own spacious parking area with electric vehicle charging points.

During the winter season, villa guests can enjoy late check-out on Sundays until 16:00 (instead of the usual 12:00).

For added comfort, each villa includes a small drinks cabinet with coffee, tea, and mineral water, a minibar, pampering bath products, a sauna with an “always ready” stove, and soft bathrobes and slippers.
