Welcome to Joiku Resort, where newly built villas blend clean design with the natural beauty of Lapland. Completed in October 2024, these villas feature high ceilings, glass walls, and cosy interiors with top-quality appliances.
Set beside the Ylläs swing and Äkäslompolo lake - a favourite Northern Lights spot, and with ski tracks right outside, it’s an ideal winter retreat. With the village’s supermarket and services just a short walk away, Joiku offers an exceptional, relaxed holiday setting.
This villa, crafted with attention to detail and style, features materials selected by an interior designer to create a harmonious blend of dark wood and limestone-inspired granite ceramics. The floor plan has been designed with a focus on gathering, relaxing, and experiencing the beauty of Lapland in a luxurious, functional setting.
