On the remote Traena archipelago in the Norwegian Sea, Ytri Island Retreat is a design-led retreat reached by boat, with sea-view rooms and suites, a seafood restaurant and chef’s table, a wood-fired sauna and an outdoor hot tub.
Ytri Island Retreat sits on the remote Traena archipelago in the Norwegian Sea, off the coast of northern Norway, in one of the country’s oldest fishing communities, reached by boat. Its architecture, by Vardehaugen, draws on old coastal fishing villages, with rooms from Superior up to Premium Suites with a fireplace, each provided with bathrobe, rain boots and a beach tote. Dining is a real focus, with Restaurant Alma serving a nightly four-course seafood menu and a chef’s table of twelve courses built on local seafood and kitchen-garden produce, alongside a lounge bar for seafood plates, pastry and cocktails. Wellness centres on a wood-fired sauna and an outdoor area with a hot tub and a sauna ritual. The setting brings northern lights in winter and the midnight sun in summer, with fishing, diving, boat trips and hikes along ancient paths, and a range of packages from Relax & Recharge to a guest-artist weekend. A member of Relais & Chateaux, it suits couples and small groups who want a remote, design-led island retreat focused on seafood and quiet nature.
