Places to stay near Ranua Zoo

Villa Kuulas offers luxury and nature for your vacation!

Step away from everyday life and let nature take you away. Villa Kuulas is located in the tranquility of Simojärvi in Ranua – where the silence is deep and the stars brighter than anywhere else. You will experience all the seasons: the glow of autumn leaves, the magic of the polar night, the dance of the northern lights and the light of the sleepless nights. The villa offers a luxurious setting for relaxation - the glow of the fireplace, the warmth of the outdoor hot tub, the soft sauna and a refreshing dip in the lake. This is where the moments that are not forgotten are born.
