Rantakari Guest Reviews
“The scenery was BEAUTIFUL. And in addition to the wonderful morning views, we managed to see wonderful sunsets and sunrises + nightly lightning and good rumbles on top – in December 🙂 The only thing I missed (and only for a while), was a dish drying cabinet or rack, because I like to wash dishes by hand. But the dishwasher worked well and there were enough dishes” (Booking.com)
“Spacious cottage with wonderful scenery. A very good Finnish sauna and the possibility of ice-swimming right at the end of the pier. A spacious cabin and many nice roads for walking the dog. It was difficult to go into the opening without a ladder, but we understand that they would freeze in place in the winter when they are not used… It’s just good to remember that getting into and out of icy water without a ladder is a bit of a challenge!” (Booking.com)
“Wonderful glazed terrace for bad weather and an open terrace for good weather. You could have sat on the terrace for hours staring at the sea and watching the birds. A really good and fast wood-heated sauna. The head of the kitchen would have liked a bigger kitchen, but yes, we managed by organizing it. (Booking.com)
