Our story: the jänkä mindset
In today’s hectic pace of working and living, it is easy to lose touch with what really matters. The Jänkä mindset is all about tapping into the feeling of being in the present and letting it reveal something new. At Jänkä, you can find something you didn’t expect – peace of mind.

preserving arctic integrity
We have deep running connections to arctic areas and understand the delicate balances of nature at play here. Jänkä Resort is built with respect towards the surroundings, without disturbing the traditional reindeer herding. Geothermal energy is used to heat the villas and keep the energy consumption in check.
revelatory stillness
To us, stillness makes sense. It can move something inside of you, if you let it. We wanted to create not just accommodations, but places that invite visitors to reconnect with themselves, being present for their loved ones and discovering Lapland’s tranquil nature.
Contemporary comforts
Our premium villas and holiday apartments cater to seasoned travelers who appreciate thoughtful details and ultimate comfortability. But that’s only half of the story. What makes a holiday truly memorable according to our guests is the warmth and hospitality they experience here.

At Jänkä Resort, nature sets the pace. Here, humans and animals connect through trust and respect. More than pets, our animals are partners and teachers, seeing us beyond words. We ensure our animals live in natural environments, with their well-being always coming first.
This approach draws inspiration from our co-owner, Michele Murphy-Kaulanen:
“We aim to offer authentic connections with animals, moments of stillness, and a deeper presence through them. Working with animals calms the human mind, fostering bonds many have never experienced before. The key is arriving as your true self, open to the moment. This is the experience we wish to share at Jänkä Resort.”
Ranch is opening for the Christmas Season 2025.
