Guest reviews

Thank you for a lovely visit! We immensely enjoyed the sea and the lovely cottage!

Guests, August 2024

Thank you for a relaxing holiday week on the island of Korppoo…. The cottage is very cute, just perfect for us, lovely rocky shore and cottage close to the sea that we love…. We have swam, fished, got to know the area and just sat in our “living room” outside and admired the archipelago and the sea…

We have had a relaxing holiday week. The weather was on our side and we have enjoyed relaxing in the sun, having saunas and swimming. We saw a white-tailed eagle, a deer with babies in the yard and a fox. The cottage is very cosy and we had everything we needed.

Strandberget Retreat was a great “base” for many excursions. We got to enjoy fine weather and great views, starting from the cottage shoreline. We spotted 15 different bird breeds by the shoreline + heard some others. Very successful holiday week!

Oh, what a lovely place this Strandberget is! Everything was well and thoughtfully arranged. We had a luxurious holiday week. Thank you!

We had a wonderful time in this small paradise hidden in the Finnish forest. Morning baths in the cold sea water, lazy breakfasts with a splendid view, the best private “television” of wild nature: eagles, swans, herons… Plenty of sun, boat trips, walks in the forest, far from the crowd and noise of everyday life. It was more than we could imagine. Thank you Krister for your huge generosity, helpful advices, on every topic and friendly attitude. We will think about you very warmly from Poland and Slovenia. Kiitos!

Guests, August 2023

We spent 4 days here celebrating our 28. anniversary and 37 years since our engagement. Such a lovely place, where you can admire the views indefinitely. The weather was good and we enjoyed warmth and sun shine. Sauna, swimming, barbecuing and fishing were in our programme. Caught fish was guaranteed, thanks to the local supermarket. Big thanks to the owners!

Guests, July 2023

We spent lovely and relaxing two weeks at Krister’s lovely cottage. We spent a lot of time just admiring the views. We experienced Korppoo Jazz and saw the Putin exhibition in Turku. I was surprised how well we could cycle here along nature trails and sandy roads.

Guests, July 2023

Thanks for having us here in your wonderful mökki 🙂 Peaceful, relaxed, laid back and easy.

Guests, August 2022

We leave this place very relaxed. This is really a place to forget all about how it goes on in 2022. We had a good time in this very fine place – enjoyed every sunset, swimming, boat, hiking or just sitting on the veranda until the dark night… We are back after 2003 and will be back again for sure!

Guests, August 2022

The views were great! Everything was nearly perfect, the only negative was mosquitoes! 🙁 Lovely warm water and nicely humid sauna. It was fun to add forest and tar scented drops to the sauna water. A swan came up to the pier with her baby. We might have also spotted a stork / white-tailed eagle! Did not have time to use the boat 🙁 PS. We did not see any snakes! 🙂

Strandberget Retreat charmed us with its magic. Words are not enough to describe our experiences. We felt like we were breathing together with nature here. We expanded and recharged. We were so happy to get to experience this kind of beauty.

Guests, August 2020

What a wonderful week in your peaceful paradise near forest and water… Sunset boat trips, sounds of nature all around. We feel so rested… Thank you!
