I used to play tennis here, “Viktorija Zaleckienė, director of Auska, told reporters.
R. Galvonas, who rented this villa in the municipality of the city of Palanga for two years, shared his story of its origin here.
Auska is exceptional. I came to Auska a good year ago. I had an event here and from time to time I fell in love with it: I always talked about it, I wanted to work here, have as many events as possible. Just by watching the public contest, I entered and it happened that I accidentally won it and I am here. “Auska was involved in many scandals, I had many various problems, you will probably also read in the media,” said the new tenant of the villa during the event.
Introducing V. Zaleckienė, the director of Auska, he said: “She has been working at Auska for 10 years. We always joke: “Auska” was stolen furniture, some were left and we found it on that piece of furniture. We stayed and we love her very much. I think Victoria will “hold Auska firmly in her hands.”
To his speech, V. Zaleckienė replied: “I thought, I closed everything here, I went out and all my 10 years were here, it would be enough … But when I met Roka and she offered me a job, I saw his enthusiasm, confidence, inspiration, he here no one collapses, no one falls, so I realized that simple, non-troublesome objects are not interested at all. The more problems, the more challenges, it is for him ”, said the director.
The village is full of scandals
When R. Galvonas, the owner of the 21-year-old Roko Kitchen, became the new tenant of the villa, Auska’s name was already appearing in criminal records and on the pages of newspapers.
In mid-May, an ambulance and the police rushed to the famous presidential village of Auska; a message was received that a girl had fallen out of the window. Doctors who arrived at night found a girl lying on the ground floor terrace.
It was later revealed that the new tenant of the villa was holding a party for his friends, and the girl victim was said to be his acquaintance.
The girl explained to poetry that she had fallen asleep when the idea of going out into the hall occurred to her and that she had supposedly mistaken the hall door for a window due to her drowsiness. He said that the windows in the rooms in the villa were large, glazed from ceiling to floor, and as a result, they were fuzzy and therefore fell from the second floor onto the terrace.
Explain about furniture.
Even before that, there was a scandal over the previous tenants’ takeover of the villa, with an expensive property being sold for supposedly residual value.
“Everything that is sold is for the residual value. I want to mention that things like handmade rugs, a litas each, 47 chandeliers, a few cents each and many other items, including a statue outside. It has not disappeared, is of foot, but in the bills we see that the former tenant has acquired it, ”said Palanga Mayor Šarūnas Vaitkus during the Seimas Anti-Corruption Commission meeting on Wednesday.
Finally, the prosecution launched an investigation into the possible misappropriation and damage to Auska’s property.
Among the sold properties is the painting “Three Virgins” in the sauna, which is known throughout Lithuania.
It is said that at the moment not all the items sold are removed from the villa, but part of the property is missing.
Since 2011, by decision of the Government, the villa located next to the Baltic Sea has been rented to Ambra Investicijos for ten years.
It is claimed that Ambra Investicijos bought the missing items from the Baltija vacation home in 2014. It was reported in the media that in 2011 the book value of the movable property was 441 thousand. LTL (about 127 thousand euros). According to the invoices, Ambra Investicijos bought items for 40 thousand. LTL (around 11 thousand euros). Representatives of the municipality of Palanga, before taking over the property, stated that there are no brass bars, stained glass windows, cupboards, cupboards, shelves, tables, chairs, upholstered furniture, various kitchen utensils, as well as irons, kettles, televisions, floor lamps, air conditioners, lamps, etc. were found. In addition, it has been recorded that the winter garden inside has been removed, the room by the pool has been demolished and tidy, the smell of mold can be felt inside, etc.
“To open Auska to tourists to this day, we have invested tens of thousands of euros. I have only been here two weeks and have managed to do a lot of work. I have an incredible team. We were able to resurrect” Auska “in two weeks for it to have changed beyond recognition, “said R. Galvonas.
Now he is not turning his head to the prosecution investigation, but is trying to focus on other work.
“That it is proved until today who owns that furniture and then it will be clear. Now we are working, serving customers and the restaurant will begin operating on June 1,” said R. Galvonas.
According to him, there are still some pieces of furniture that are in dispute between the municipality of Palanga and Ambra Investicijos.
“Now we can use that furniture. You ask, what would happen if that furniture was removed? We have brought a lot of our furniture, so due to various pieces of furniture, our work would not stop, just maybe some rooms would be left unoccupied, ”said Auska’s new tenant.

“Everything is ready, the equipment is in order. All that was left was to add water. It is a matter of a few days and the pool will work. Vacationers will be able to row in early June,” said R. Galvonas.
History of Villa Auska
In 1979, on the outskirts of Palanga, in a 22-hectare fenced, spiked and wire-protected forest area, a particularly luxurious village “Auska” emerged. From the beginning, it had two names, and people immediately called this project “Villa Brezhnev”. And not unnecessarily. This building would become the resting place of the then Soviet leader Leonid Brezhnev, more precisely, the complete rest residence. However, at least according to official sources, he never settled here to rest.
Delfi.lt’s travel ambassador, Orijus Gasanovas, had already said that the architect Juozapas Šipalis at that time put everything that was more progressive here. A lamp in a sauna that does not need electricity only needs solar energy; to the people of that time it seemed like a miracle. The sliding windows on the terrace were also like invisible magic.
Natural wood, granite and marble, all the best, were brought from Moscow. Much attention was paid to safety during the construction of the villa. The militia accompanied the carefully selected and repeatedly inspected materials, and the guards supervised the construction and, in particular, the builders. No one escaped their eyes. It is said that all possible connections were even blocked in Auska, because the government was terrified of eavesdropping. During the Soviet era, it was exclusively the headquarters of the main leaders of the Communist Party. In Moscow, there was a time when one or another official could enjoy luxury and comfort in Auska.
In 1989-1990, there were many changes in the country, the political system changed, so the fate of the town was hanging by the hair. The building was destroyed, much of it is said to have been looted, but eventually everything got back on track and the political elite began to dominate here again. After Lithuania regained its independence, Villa Auska became a resting place for the presidents of our country. In other words, a presidential cabin with an area of 3.5 thousand square meters. The entire building, all the amenities and the entire surrounding park, and of course, a separate access to the Baltic Sea, was an elite beach for presidents only.
Until 2012, ordinary mortals could not enter this area. Then a transformation took place and the presidential villa was converted into a four star hotel.
The hotel has a conference room for events, which is said to have seen meetings of influential people not only in Lithuania, but perhaps even throughout the Soviet Union, where many decisions were made that determined the life of the country, including the decision to the Baltic States. to join the European Union.
