As summer fills us with life, fall takes over. Strengthened by rest and lazy days, it is time to rediscover our relationships. The landscape shifts to a warmer scale, leaves cover the ground and the smell of apples and mushrooms fills the air. We harvest, store and cook everything nature provides, serving slow cookery and apple pie with salty caramel sauce.
We light lanterns and candles, play board games by the fire and wrap our scarves several times before going out for an autumn walk. The reeds are blooming with violet shoots.
When the reeds bloom, it is autumn.
Right now, Marholmen is undergoing a transformation. While the rebuilding is going on, we are offering a 20% discount on all hotel packages and rooms until December 21st - our way of saying thank you for your patience.

A guided Sauna Master session is so much more than just a sauna. It's an experience that engages all your senses and leaves you feeling renewed.
Black root, pumpkin, beetroot, scallop and apple and almond cake are just a few examples that we serve on our fall menu until November 27. Yum!
In 1924, wholesaler Nils Berg and his wife Hanna donated the island to the labor movement to give workers a place to rest and recover. Now we offer you who are 65+ a relaxing time with us.
Marholmen is undergoing a transformation. Are you curious about what it will look like in the future? Check out here to follow the construction, see pictures and read all about the changes we are making.
This year, nothing will be quite the same over the Christmas and New Year holidays here at Marholmen. As we are moving back into our main building after the remodeling, we will keep the restaurant, hotel, activities and other services closed over the holidays.
However, as usual, you can book cabin and villas with self-catering and bring your own food and drinks. Villa Berg is booked as usual with its own chef and service staff.
Book the entire magnificent Art Nouveau villa for a family gathering, a celebration, a conference or a board meeting. Or why not celebrate Christmas or New Year together here? Your own chef is included in the price!
You choose how comfortable you want to be. Do you want to stay in our hotel with sea view and live all inclusive, or stay in one of our nice cabin or villas with self-catering? Or why not combine the best of both worlds - indulge yourself in your own cabin and luxuriate sometimes. Because that's how it is here on Marholmen - you shape your stay exactly as you want it. Life is simple on our island.
Winter baths, hot drinks, fire. Snow, hoarfrost, sparkling morning after cold night. Frost-soaked cheeks and hot chocolate with whipped cream. Sofas, blankets, armchairs. The wispy lashes of the reeds remain all winter.
Buds burst, sprout, wake up. Light filters between newly emerged leaves. Feelings of spring, a word that tingles the body.
Spring rush, spring bathing as an awakening, fresh.
The reeds are bright green.
Summer makes us wild and beautiful. Swimming in smooth and soft seas, sun-dried on the dock wrapped in terry cloth. Strawberries, flowers, bright warm evenings. We serve ice cream with strawberries. The reeds are straw yellow.
