“Our villas are handpicked, premium quality and combined with the best local experience Lapland has to offer. We leave the package cliches to the other guys”

— Jussi Vatanen, Actor and Founding partner, HillaVillas.

We’ve all had holidays before, and some of us have even booked villa rentals in Lapland, so what makes Hilla Villas any different?

Here’s the story: eight friends, all living in Finland and all part owners of villas in Lapland, realised there was a gap between the region’s exceptional villas and breathtaking surroundings and a wider market of international and domestic travellers hungry for a complete experience holiday.

From cosy rural hideaways to picture-perfect stays in the fell villages to night skiing under the Northern Lights, we wanted to let a wider community of experience travellers in on Lapland’s too well kept secrets.

So, we created Hilla Villas. A service designed specifically to match travellers with a carefully selected collection of premium properties in Lapland.

After reaching out to our network of villa owners, partnering up with experts in business development and travel – and drawing on our insider knowledge and love of Lapland – we’ve designed a full service built around exceptional places to stay. We also see it as important to raise Lapland’s profile as a unique travel destination and to support local entrepreneurs.

Hilla Villas has grown fast, and today we are the premium segment market leader, offering hundreds of the best rental accommodations in Lapland. For villa owners who rely on us for their rentals, we see ourselves as villa asset managers.

We follow customer feedback very closely, and it has mainly been extremely positive. We are most grateful, however, to receive ideas for improvement, which we will – together with the villa owners – act swiftly on.

This is what Hilla Villas is about. Come find us – and stay amazed.

Our mission is to utilise digital opportunities to connect individual travellers with high-quality accommodation and unforgettable experiences in Lapland, in a brand new way.

We promise:

THE HIGHEST QUALITY ACCOMMODATION  
The quality of our villas defines us. We handpick villas based on our meticulous selection criteria.  
TO SUPPORT SUSTAINABILITY 
Premium can’t come at the cost of sustainability. We look for villas powered by renewable energy, furnished and built with materials sourced from local or eco-friendly suppliers.
A WHOLE NEW LETTING EXPERIENCE 
We live local to Lapland—a world away from impersonal travel algorithms. We care about people and place, and we treat our guests and owners as we’d like to be treated ourselves.  
TRANSPARENCY & HONESTY 
Nothing but the best quality villas. It’s that simple. What you see is what you get: premium accommodation and honest pricing. No filter needed.
