Ööbikuoru Villa smoke sauna

Rõuge vald, Võru maakond, 66296

A smoke sauna is a traditional Estonian sauna that doesn’t have a chimney. The fire heats the stones, and the smoke fills the surrounding room. After the sauna is heated, the smoke is let out through the door before the sauna-goers enter.
At Ööbikuoru Villa’s smoke sauna, you can take your time and cleanse your body and soul while enjoying peace and quiet. The sauna steam room can accommodate up to six people, and some visitors can enjoy the hot tub at the same time.
If you wish to stay overnight, you can stay in the romantically furnished rooms at Ööbikuoru Villa.
