Michelin Key Hotel

"Everything about our stay was wonderful: the location, the staff, the onsite restaurant and bar was everything we expected and more. The sauna was a highlight and the short walk to a deserted black sand beach was amazing. They also offer a northern lights wake up service. Wonderful and would definitely stay again."
Anastasios
“A truly delightful experience! The atmosphere was so inviting, it felt like visiting a dear friend rather than just a hotel.”
Yuki Tanaka
"There is something very special about UMI. The views, the stillness and the attention to detail made it feel completely removed from everyday life. Exactly what we needed."
Isabella Rossi
