”Autumn mornings from Maininki beach. Yes, it’s an amazing place ❤ I feel privileged to have been able to come here to relax and calm down.” – Karoliina
”This is such a crazy place that my heart melted, shall we say that the best treatment for an artist’s soul is given by this and its entire milieu. Wonderfully decorated and respects its age, 10/10, can accommodate 3-4 families. Sulkava at heart and you can easily rent a church boat, one of the best vacations ever. I intended and will go again, as long as these exceptional times are taken seriously.” – Karoliina Siitonen in the Suomen Puskaradio Facebook group
