Põnka Guesthouse

I stayed there 14-15 Of November 2020 together with 4 friends.. We love the place. 
The host (Raaivo)  is super super nice, he loves to talk and gives nice advices to what to do. 
There is a dog also in the place that is a plus!
Breakfast was good, nice fresh eggs !!

We stayed for 2 nights at this wonderful farm stay in May. We accidentally came upon it so had no expectations. Look out for the sign, it's not that obvious. The absolute highlight is the sauna and the host. He has a ritual with the sauna that you follow, you don't think you will when he first tells you. It involves jumping into a freezing pond after the hot sauna and doing it again and again with a beer after each plunge. It was such fun. It is well worth the extra cost.
The accomodation is simple but comfortable with the use of a kitchen. His breakfast in the morning is delicious. It has taken us this long to write the review but we have never forgotten our time there.

Best location to explore Soomaa National Parc. The owner Raivo is a great host and sauna expert, very helpful. Rooms are comfy and clean and breakfast served with heart. We hope one day we have the chance to come back.

The host was super, there was plenty of food all the time, the area is nice and awesome/bold fish in local small pond. Great sauna. Lot of animals around.  Would like to go back in a business trip or just for vacation.

Every guesthouse has its own face. Owner of Põnka guesthouse is deffanately very polite man, welcoming and full of energy. He can make you jump in winternight after sauna to 5 degrees pound and tell you stories til morning. Laughter is guaranteed! Spending night there gives you peaceful sleep, food is local an healthy, the nature around is just amazeing.

We couldn't believe it.

Very energetic owner

Excellent option or Sooma Park visit and to feel Real Estonia

Charming Farmhouse

Great experience

Based on reviews of other travellers we had high expectations of Phonka. What a disappointment ! 
Although from the outside the house(s) look inviting, the inside is another story. Rooms are very small, 2 beds + 1 (!) wall-outlet+ 1 wooden chair. Nothing else. Beds are narrow and creaky. Sanitization has to be shared with 10 other rooms. 2 small showers (in one I couldn't stand-up straight), 3 toilets (one broken) and doors that get jammed (a woman had to be freed at night because the door of the bathroom got jammed). 
Rooms were very hot during our stay (directly under the roof). Only a small skylight that could be opened to a certain degree. No airconditioning. 
Beneath a small kitchen that had to be shared and a large, cheerless living space. 
Although in a lot of reviews people spoke about the possibility to have breakfast or even diner, it appeared the cook was on vacation (during high-season !), so we were not that lucky. Only place nearby where we could eat was closed. 
In short: even 50 euro a night for this accommodation is overpriced. We understand that this business model is for the owner attractive, but as a guest we felt ripped. Never again !
