    Loved it!! Very cozy with nordic interior and design. One of the coziest places I have ever been. We had an own cabin with a view to the woods and could watch the northern lights. Breakfast was perfect and healthy, staff was super friendly. Will definitely come back and can highly recommend!

    A little remote location, which I would keep in mind if travelling without a car. When travelling with a car, location was very nice as it was a little away from Saariselkä centre.

    Very nice and comfortable room with a great view. Breakfast was also good. Great location with direct access to the nature.

    After 10pm, there is no option to stay in the lobby. So you have to sit in your room while you would rather enjoy the lobby and the fireplace or the big sofa

    Very kind and helpful staff, excellent breakfast, cozy and romantic location in the real wilderness

    The breakfast was really below average. Two different kinds of cheese that tasted the same (like nothing). Not a good selection in general. The Jacobs coffee machine is the worst. Produces black instant syrup that tastes really bad. Please get some standard filter coffee

    Very friendly and helpful staff. Cozy lounge area and of course beautiful and stunning surroundings

    The cabins were a little difficult to keep at a stable temperature.

    Beautiful location - set directly in the woods. A special treat when you are looking for a calm and relaxing holiday. We saw the aurora on 50% of the nights. The food is amazing - the buffet is of great quality and very delicious. We stayed at an Aurora cabin and loved the quality of the resort. We definitely want to come back!

    The igloo had very limited storage, so once your outerwear was hanging up, it took over a large proportion of the storage identified.

    "The igloo we stayed in was warm and inviting, and having a sauna to ourselves was a luxurious experience. We had half-board and the food was tailored to our dietary requirements. The selection of food was amazing and there was plenty of everything. The staff were helpful, professional, and friendly, and were always willing to answer any questions we had."

    Nothing mentionable and standing out to dislike.

    The Breakfast and dinner spread were outstanding! The hall where the food is laid is very nice with lots of sofas around the fireplace, books, games etc. The Aurora cabins are fantastic! Private Sauna and bathroom were lovely. The space was large, beds were comfortable , heating was good and there was a thermostat. Excellent coffee!

    nothing really.

    we booked the igloo stay which came with a private sauna. The room also had wine and chocolate awaiting for us. We reached early and they were happy to accommodate us with an early check in. We dined in their dining hall and loved the food. Staff ensured our drinks were made just the way we like it. We also booked a cross country ski and the they were very patient with us cause we knew nothing about it and kept fall. We also booked a northern lights tour and though we din't spot the northern light on that day our guide ensured we were entertained through out.

    Despite the room being very large, there was no microwave and limited wardrobe size which are things that there was plenty of room to provide. These amenities weren't advertised for our room-type, but given how spacious the room was it was surprising they haven't added a few extras like a microwave/kitchenette which would make the more basic rooms perfect.

    The property is in a great, wilderness location. Perfect spring-board for nature-focused walks and tours, you really feel like you're in a winter wonder-land. The room was huge, albeit lacked some amenities. We saw wild Reindeer multiple times in and around the property which was quite magical. The staff were very friendly, the food was great, and there was adequate parking.

    Can’t recall a moment when I was not impressed

    It was the best decision to stay at this property far away in the wilderness. We opted for half board (food was delicious) and all activities offered by the resort and it made our stay super convenient and memorable. Highly recommend this property and their activities.

    A beautiful location. The view of the forest from the huge window in the log cabin was stunning. The woodfire made our stay there particularly cosy, atmospheric and comfortable. Since there is very little to do there in the evenings, no tv and it is quite far from town, it would be nice if the log cabins came with some boardgames. There are some basic games available at reception but the selection could be improved. The shower is nice and hot and the sauna in the log cabins is a nice touch. The staff onsite are very friendly and there is a good selection of good quality food available daily at the buffet breakfast and dinner. Overall, a very enjoyable stay in a stunning location.
