More about Midsummer on Marholmen
We invite you to yet another traditional Midsummer celebration here on the island, featuring the communal raising of the maypole and dancing to “Små grodorna” with local musicians. You’ll check in on Thursday for a relaxed start to the festivities and stay for two or three nights at the hotel or in one of our archipelago cottages or villas. On Midsummer’s Eve, we’ll raise the pole together with dancing and group games.
The Midsummer weekend offers peace and quiet and time to simply enjoy each other’s company. Our skilled chefs will provide delicious meals, and we offer a wide range of activities for the whole family, such as beach volleyball, boat rentals, soccer, tennis, adventure golf, nature bingo, forest bathing, and much, much more.
A warm welcome to a traditional Midsummer celebration for the whole family and across generations at Marholmen!
