The Space:
💛 The Hyttekos experience
“Hytte” means a cabin or nature retreat.
“Kos” represents comfort, warmth, and togetherness.
Hyttekos is the perfect balance of both.
A place to:
- slow down
- reconnect
- enjoy the simple things
Fireplace evenings, shared meals, hot tub under the stars…
here, every moment matters.
🌲 Bright and peaceful living space
From the moment you step inside, you feel it:
- modern Scandinavian architecture
- cathedral ceilings
- expansive wall of windows
- direct views of the woods
A light-filled space where nature becomes part of your stay.
🛏️ Designed for gathering (without compromise)
Comfortably accommodates up to 12 guests:

🚨 Damage protection – peace of mind included 🚨
To provide a seamless experience, accidental damage protection is included as a fixed nightly fee.
It replaces the traditional security deposit and covers accidental damages up to $50,000 for eligible stays.* Very few properties offer this level of protection!
Result:
✔️ no security deposit required
✔️ simple and structured handling if something happens
✔️ a smooth, worry-free experience
Because true luxury is also peace of mind. 😇
While this protection typically replaces a deposit, we reserve the right to request an additional deposit in rare, case-by-case situations.
*Certain conditions and exclusions apply. Details available upon request.
