What it’s good at
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
Framed by pine forest and the Baltic Sea, LaSpa is a Nordic retreat with wellness at its core.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
In a coastal pine forest on Laulasmaa beach, looking out over the Gulf of Finland.

The rooms
Main house rooms look out over the water. Steps away, the Beach House is quieter and set among the pines.
The water
Bring a swimsuit.
The pool and saunas
The 20-metre indoor pool looks straight out into the pines, and a sculpted pinecone tops the timber sauna.
Gym and yoga studio
Preserved moss accents the fitness room, and a dedicated wood-floored studio hosts regular indoor yoga classes.
At the table
Chef Angelica Udeküll shapes the menu at Restaurant Wicca around foraged Estonian produce, with tables looking onto the pines.
How it began
Bathing traditions here date to 1813, long before the pine forest hosted a Soviet trade union holiday home.

The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
