Celebrate love and connection in the quiet beauty of the Arctic.
Our Heart of Winter Retreat is a three-night escape designed for couples seeking to share meaningful time together, held in the embrace of Lapland’s midwinter.
February in Lapland is a month where the cold remains, but the days grow slightly brighter, creating space for shared memories in the daylight, with time for reflection in those adventures. It is a season for drawing near, for sharing quiet intimacy while the frozen world outside stands still. At Skýra, we embrace this moment as a chance to slow down together, savoring not just the landscape but one another.
To enrich this retreat, we have curated experiences designed to nurture connection and celebrate intimacy. Champagne and handmade chocolate hearts await in your room, setting the tone for your stay. A Couple’s Massage invites you to relax together, while a Private Love Coaching Workshop offers space to deepen your connection. A thoughtful couple’s gift gives you something to take home as a memory of your time here. A curated day out adds a sense of adventure, whether wandering through Rovaniemi, visiting Santa Claus Village, or choosing an outdoor winter experience, all arranged with care by our team.
Your days follow the natural rhythm of Skýra: table served Nordic breakfasts, awakening morning yoga, and guided forest bath sessions, balanced with time for yourself in your private suite or villa. By afternoon, the Finnish ritual of Pullakahvit — coffee and fresh pastries — invites you to pause. While evenings bring Folklore Sauna Sessions and thermal spa cycles at the Nordic Spa. To end the day, a meditative sound bath lulls you into restful sleep.

Still, we reserve a handful of places for those who feel called to connect with us directly.
