Wellness vacations – explore holiday offers
Hyvinvointilomat ry organises financially supported full board vacations for families with children, for the unemployed and for pensioners.
The financially assisted holidays can be applied for via the Hyvinvointilomat website www.hyvinvointilomat.fi during the application period. Applying or being granted a holiday does not require membership.
Application forms can also be printed from the Hyvinvointilomat website or they can be ordered by phone 010 830 3400 or by email [email protected].
The assisted holiday is granted based on financial, social or health reasons. Hyvinvointilomat ry makes the decisions about granting the holidays.
The price paid by you depends on the type of holiday and can be between 100 to 135 euros per adult for 5 days. Children under the age of 16 can holiday for free with a guardian or grandparent. Holidays for the unemployed cost 50 euros per adult for 5 days. The assisted holiday includes accommodation, full board meals (breakfast, lunch and dinner, as well as an evening snack for families with children) as well as a vacation programme.
The assisted holidays are made possible by Hyvinvointilomat ry with grants from the Ministry of Social Affairs and Health from gaming revenue.
