“The house itself is truly beautiful – a real loft-style wooden cabin nestled deep in the forest, with a dreamy path leading up to it. It feels like stepping into a different world. The bedroom is tucked away upstairs under the roof – very typical for Latvia – accessible via a steep, narrow staircase. We ended up sleeping on the sofa bed in the living room, which was unfortunately quite hard, so our sleep wasn't the most restful.
The kitchen is simple but functional – no dishwasher, no microwave, no TV: a real digital detox, with the exception of Wi-Fi, the connection was great. The fridge was quite loud, though.
The bathroom is spacious, with a great view into the greenery and a washing machine – plenty of space to hang clothes. But some details could use improvement: the sink is tiny, the shower door only opens inward (tricky for cleaning), no shelf in the shower.
The terrace is large and beautiful – we imagined spending a lot of time there, but road noise, highway in 1km distance, (possibly due to wind direction) and lots of mosquitoes in the evening made it harder to enjoy.
The village of Saulkrasti has plenty of shops, and the beach is stunning – peaceful, wide, and never too crowded. There are only a few restaurants, but the ones we tried were definitely worth it.
Final thoughts:
This is a place for those who truly want to disconnect, slow down, and embrace nature – imperfections and all. If you’re looking for luxury, look elsewhere. But if you appreciate authenticity, solitude, and a bit of wilderness, this place will stay with you long after you leave. We absolutely loved it – despite (or maybe because of) its flaws.”
“!
As a family with two children, we had to improvise where to sleep. The furniture was very old and dirty, uncomfortable, not clean, and the bathroom was moldy. It was very old and poorly maintained for the price of €130 per night. No cancellation, prepayment only. We were very disappointed and ripped off! The pictures on the website do not reflect reality.”
“Lay back and relax in the heart of nature.
The view from the porch or from inside is just great.
It is a perfect spot to explore Latvia: within 30 minutes to max. 1 hour you reach Sigulda, Riga, Jurmala etc. And the region of Saulkrasti is very nice as well.”
