Todella "cool" paikka. Upea näköala huoneesta ja Kemijärveltä löytyy muutenkin kaikki mitä ihminen tarvitsee lomalla. Ystävällinen ja huumorintajuinen henkilökunta ja illallistarjonta herkullinen.

Sitio magnífico para unas vacaciones en familia. La cabaña está espectacular, justo en la orilla del lago. No le falta de nada, sales de la sauna y te metes en el lago helado...una maravilla. Lo mejor de Jauri, el personal del Resort. Päivi es fantástica, siempre atenta y cuidando todos los detalles. Hacen lo posible por complacerte. Nuestra guía Katia también es muy buena. Las actividades con Jauri están muy bien organizadas y personalizadas. Estás lejos del turismo masivo y se nota. Sitio perfecto, bien ubicado. El restaurante también es muy muy agradable y la comida estaba muy rica.

Me and my friend had an absolutely lovely Northern lights snowmobile safari here. We saw the prettiest aurora we've ever seen😍 The tour felt intimate and tailored to the guests wishes. It included plenty of snowmobiling with good time to take pictures as well. Our guide Jarmo was also wonderful. Go here if you want an authentic local experience!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ A big thank you specially to Kathia and Uula! Even though we didn’t stay at the resort and only came for the activities, they made our experience absolutely wonderful.They were incredibly kind, professional, and attentive, making sure we felt safe and comfortable the whole time. The snowmobile safari was perfectly organized, and the reindeer experience felt truly magical and authentic. Everything was handled with care and warmth. We are very grateful for such a beautiful and memorable Lapland experience — thank you again for all staff!From Ryan&Andra xx
