Cool Cabins

Cabins had a nice layout with good features. We were able to see Northern lights from our bed. Two nights they were a bit to our side, so 180 view limited our view a bit. Walked to lakeside and sat around the covered fire. Dinner was excellent as was breakfast buffet. Shuttle was relatively convenient except for late afternoon and early morning to train station which required 50 euro taxi. Also, pathways to room would have been safer with path lighting (fell one night).

Presented really well and was clean staff were friendly however EVERYTHING costs a fortune and is NOT included. $600AUD FOR 2 people to do any activity that goes for approx 2 hours. Breakfast is not served until 8am so if leaving early your told bad luck. Village is far away from reception and breakfast was mediocre

The resort was very pretty and clean, and the cabins were incredible. The included breakfast was international and included lots of different options. Make sure you have a car though. Otherwise, you'll have to take a taxi everywhere. You can not walk to attractions.

A fantastic resort located right on the shores of a large lake, offering plenty of activities—including both traditional and portable saunas—and a well-equipped adventure center. The cabins are beautiful, modern, and extremely comfortable, featuring large windows perfect for viewing the aurora borealis. The resort also provides a convenient (paid) shuttle service to Santa’s Village. The staff are exceptionally helpful and welcoming. The only downside is the hot water system: you get about 20 minutes of hot water at a time, and it can take up to two hours for the tank to fully refill.

Amazing , I don't want to leave

Amazng.....Accommodation Queen Igloos so comfy and cosy. Food delish, staff so friendly. Northern Lights snowmobile ride was such fun but cold, wear as many layers as you can, guides were great. Saw the northern lights from bed. Had only booked one nights as reviews were saying best to for staying in the Igloo but I'd stay longer, Igloos are spacious and u can control the heating.
