Hyvää Juhannusta - Happy Midsummer

If you ask a Finnish person which date matters most in the year, most will say “Juhannus” before they finish the question.

Juhannus = Midsummer. The longest light. The one weekend where everything stops and everyone goes to the lake.

Juhannus is about “kokko”, the midsummer bonfire built tall and lit at the water’s edge as the sun refuses to set. It is about swimming in a lake that is finally warm enough. It is about the sauna, long and unhurried, with the people you love most. It is about sitting together with nowhere to go and nothing to explain. It is the one time of year Finns collectively agree that this, right here, is enough.

We are far from any Finnish lake today. But our saunas are warm, the birch is ready and the spirit of Juhannus travels well.

If you know what today is, happy Midsummer! If this is the first time you are hearing the word, now you know. You are welcome here too! 🌿

Juhannus is coming. The most important day in the Finnish calendar.

Before we tell you what it is, we want to make sure you know how to use the sauna. Because at Villa Hygge the sauna is yours for your entire stay and most people have never been in a real Finnish one before.

You know the Nordics for long dark winters, northern lights and cold that goes straight through you.

But that is not the whole story.

Right now, in the far north, the sun does not set at all. For the next two months it circles the sky, dipping low toward the horizon around midnight and then climbing back up before anyone has decided whether to sleep. This phenomenon is called the ”midnight sun” and it turns the Nordic world into something completely different in summer. Magical in a way that is hard to explain until you have seen it.

North Conway does not get the midnight sun. But everything we have built at Villa Hygge is an attempt to bring that Nordic atmosphere here. The birch trees, the saunas, the stillness, the way the light comes through our big windows and sits warm on your skin in the late afternoon.

Find a chair in our lobby or settle into your room and let the sun do what it does.

Have you heard about the midnight sun before? 🌿

Did you know that you don’t need to travel across the globe to find that deep sense of calm and the scent of fresh pine?

We have brought the heart of Scandinavia to the White Mountains, creating the perfect weekend getaway to escape the hustle and bustle. But don’t just take our word for it, one of our guests (who lived in Finland for two years!) had this to say:

”It was such a pleasant surprise to see how wonderfully authentic the Scandinavian experience is at Villa Hygge! ... The sauna and massage was exceptional!”

Whether you’re here for the authentic sauna or the mountain air, your Nordic retreat is waiting. Take a look at our offerings in the photos and book your getaway to Scandinavia!

P.S. Have you visited us already? Did you feel that Scandinavian atmosphere? We would love to hear your thoughts about it!

Finland has been celebrated as the happiest country for the ninth time in row! It can’t just be luck anymore! Here are three cornerstones that the Finns swear by:

1. Prioritize time for yourself and loved ones: Finns place a high level of trust in society and one another. Although their inner circles may be small, they truly cherish their time together. If you are worried about your work-life balance, you’re missing the point. There is just life.

2. Sauna culture: Did you know that Finland has just over 5.5 million residents and more than 3 million saunas? There’s a lighthearted joke that Finns have more saunas than cars! The sauna culture is deeply ingrained, playing a role in almost every aspect of Finnish life from work meetings to significant life events, and everyday routines.

3. Connection to nature: Renowned for its forests and countless lakes, nature holds a vital place in Finnish life. Finns enjoy taking walks in the forest as part of their daily routine, embracing the tranquility and beauty of the great outdoors.

You should certainly include the Scandinavian countries on your travel list. In the meantime, why not visit the Scandinavian Spa and Hotel in North Conway? We promise you quality time for yourself or with loved ones, surrounded by a nature-rich atmosphere and private saunas!

Optimizing your sleep pattern is not only good for your health, it can also give you a competitive edge. One of the first industries to realize this was Formula 1. Professor Steven Lockley, Associate Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School “The leaders in business are realizing that to get the most out of themselves, and to get most out of their staff, we need to prioritise sleep, prioritise recovery, so that we can come much more efficient in our working lives.
