Amazing isolated place in the arctic wilderness. High quality luxury cabin, with lovely staff. Loved every second spent here! Saw northern lights from our bed every night!

Sauna would have been expensive

Taking care of vegetarians/vegans. I loved the cat "Miuku" that lived there. Friendly service.

Location is perfect for the travellers from / to North. This is one great place to stay, as the room is very comfortable, kitchen is well equipped and wifi connection is strong -- the last one is very important, as the network signal is very weak at this region. There is a restaurant on-site that works quite late, until 9pm.

Charming location in the middle of nowhere, on the way to Norway. Our room was small but functional. The common areas were warm and comfortable with everything we needed in the shared kitchen.

Location in a beautiful location. The hosts are very nice and helpful. Comfortable beds, clean rooms. Good WiFi coverage. Kitchenette and fridge in common areas. We didn't use the breakfast as we left early but dinner in the restaurant was very good.

The employees are very kind, helpful and friendly. Especially Lots of love to Anita at the reception. Emma s reindeers farm is also located in the facility. You can pet, feed and take a tour with reindeers. Also emma can tell lots of details about Sami lifesyle and tradition. Husky tour was amazing. On the other hand, If you rent a car you can drive to nordkapp for 3 hours. Or santa clausvillage in roveniemi drive for 3 hours from the giellajohka. We catched up the Aurora borealis almost allnight during our stay. Just you need in here is clear sky to see northern lights. We treasured up great memories here. I hope we will meet again in future. Guys you are amazing. Facility is cozy. Note: Ski and snow shoeing equipment we used freely.

The only thing we thought could be better was the consistency of hot water during shower, but nevertheless, we enjoyed ourselves throughly during our 3nights stay.

The location was really easy to find, with clear signages, and the bus stop is right in front of the property! Check in was a breeze and it was easy to get around. The house was warm even though it was sub-zero outside. Kitchen was well furnished and comfy bed. The big glass windows was what we loved best. You can just sit by it to check if there's auora, and the auora alerts were really prompt!

Everything was perfect.

Our stay was absolutely perfect. Location is gorgeous. Hosts are available and nice. The bedroom was clean and perfectly comfortable with a private bathroom and a shared kitchen and living area with a fireplace (which was really nice to meet other guests). Absolutely loved the sauna and cold plunge in the frozen lake, as well as the hut with a fire to warm up while looking at the northern lights. The food at the restaurant was good and the activities offered were great. Bonus point for the free snow shoes and cross country skies, as well as the reindeers. Would recommend 100%.

Lovely place. Nothing to complain. Great staff. Wish to come back. Thanks for our stay

Nothing to dislike, really. A few little upgrades to the cabin, like a slighly wider bathroom counter to put all of your stuff and maybe a small coffee table in front of the couch to rest your feet. We improvised one and made do with it, so definitely not necessary but would be a nice addition ◡̈

The accommodation was amazing. We were staying in one of the three lakeside cabins and they were great. The cabin itself was as beautiful on the inside as on the outside. It was very cozy with the fireplace and the large windows. You have a lot of privacy and still have amazing views over the (frozen) lake. It came with a fully equipped kitchen (👍🏼) and a very comfortable bathroom. The bedrooms were cozy and the beds were comfortable. Small but nice detail was the visualized manual (with pictures!) they left on the table which included all the instructions on how to use i.e. the fireplace, sauna etc. Makes it easy to do things yourself without having to constantly ask for help ◡̈ Unfortunately it was cloudy during our 3-day stay, but the owners were very helpful in making sure we got to see the Auroras. They arranged a last minute tour for us and because of that we got to see them!! And on my birthday as well so that was very big plus.

Bus time schedule (1x day)

The 3 Cats! 🐈‍⬛ 🐈 🐈‍⬛ It was my very first time solo travelling & the Staffs were very nice & helpful. I tried to book a husky safari but it was fully booked & they helped me find an alternative options so i can do the husky safari in Inari instead. I only have 3 nights so my schedule were really cramped. I still manage to do the things i wanted to do. Whatapp group for Aurora borealis sightings within the property. you dont need to book an aurora hunting trip because it is directly outside of your window if the weather allows it. the food choices are great! I really liked the Fish soup & Reindeer sautéed! Reindeer farm within the property.

Everything was fantastic.

The host, Emma, warmly welcomed us after a long journey. She shared very useful information while showing great sensitivity towards animals and the environment. We especially enjoyed common areas, the comfortable beds and the delicious reindeer sandwiches! We cannot believe we paid so little for such high standards. Absolutely recommended for all types of travellers, from couples to families or groups of friends.

Very good hospitality, nice information for example the northern lights

the handle of the heater is loose, but that did not irritate us

Our Cabin was clean, cosy and included a heater. We had sight on the frozen river from the cabin. We could see the Aurora from our bed the whole night long. Lot's of nice walks to do in the area. We could borrow country-cross ski's and snowshoes for free. We als did the snowmobile tour. Would definitely recommend to stay here!

Amazing aurora that you could even see from your window. Staff and activities are great, super helpful, and fun. The sauna with an ice hole is a highlight!

The room was a bit small, so was our bed so we slept a little bad but it's the only thing to say about what didn't we didn't at this place!

The staff was incredibly kind, we spent Christmas' Eve dining all together with a great buffet (they put some vegetarian ham, which I liked a lot, since I'm vegetarian), the Reindeer slide was really cool as well we also fed the reindeers that was nice

The kindness of Anita/Emma and the rest of the team, the location, the common areas, the apartment, the activities, the food, the reindeers farm, the teepee… we loved everything 🥹

The Giellajohka is perfect the only bad thing is that our vacation ends.

It’s impossible to explain, everything is amazing, the staff, the place, the food, the cats, the view…
