Pisavaara Strict Nature Reserve Vacations from $1,320

Room with a beautiful view of the forest. Very sound proof and comfortable beds!

Bring your own food if if travelling off season. Only one of the 2 restaurants will be open for dinner and it works with a massively reduced menu. No restaurant available for lunch, only room service. The "buffet breakfast" is actually only yoghurt, stale bread and green salad. Alongside that you can order one item from their breakfast menu of 5 options - most of which are eggs. No fruit/ porridge or other regular breakfast options that you would expect from a resort of this calibre (allegedly 5*). Nearest shop/ other restaurant is 40 minutes away so it really is quite unacceptable. At least prior warning of this situation would've enabled us to plan better for this but none was given. Otherwise the location is beautiful, there was a shuttle service into the city around 3 times each day which was appreciated. The spa is great but again not everything was functional due to the "off season" timing. We had emailed the hotel over a week prior to our stay to check what services would be available but received no reply so assumed everything would be as advertised on their website/ Expedia. This was not the case so whilst it was a relaxing and beautiful location which we did enjoy, ultimately it was a bit of a disappointing resort stay compared to what was expected.

The plane is spotless, great location, clean, comfortable and welcoming, my wife and I loved every minute of our stay, though it was short but memorable, Jim and Ninn from Ozz

I thought this was overpriced. Although the staff was friendly and popular I feel that it was a rip off for tourists. The igloos were not that comfortable. The angle of the ceiling was little bit uncomfortable and it was not ergonomic to see aurora. Their activities like Arctic bath sauna was too much of rip off - 199 euros? Wow.. it was too much for the value. I know other non private ones charge of 19 euros…

Our stay at Halo Igloo was incredible. The room was lovely, everything was very clean and the hot tub and sauna were an added bonus. The staff were very friendly and helpful and nothing was too much for them. Staff were very knowledgeable and went above and beyond to help. On one day when we couldn’t get a taxi to one of our activities the man on reception offered to take us so that we would not miss it. Lovely accommodation and people. We hope to visit again.
