Octola Private Wilderness

Having hunted for the right place to accommodate the discerning guests of our Luxury Action travel company, I eventually realized that the right property did not exist in the right location. That’s when I decided the only option was to build our very own log chalet. Traditionally, we have managed or rented private chalets in various locations around Lapland, then refurnished them to meet the individual standards of our guests. As fun and instructive as this concept has been, implementing the interior design on a one-by-one basis was costly and time-consuming. In addition, regardless of our efforts to upgrade the existing chalets in Lapland, although of excellent quality, they tend to have very small rooms and only a few properties have en-suite bedrooms with shower and toilet. I felt it was time for a revolutionary change to provide exclusive accommodation in the Arctic that meets the needs of our experiential guests.

In this project, colleagues from the world’s leading luxury travel companies have helped us with contributions to design and ideas. OCTOLA was built for frequent, global travellers accustomed to luxurious five-star hotels. Being accommodated in a wooden chalet is the essence of Lapland, providing the most authentic stay in the Arctic. We offer total privacy in our own secluded wilderness area and all the exciting outdoor Arctic activities are on your doorstep. Our wilderness guides, chef and butler ensure that all your requirements and wishes are attended to.
