10/10 Exceptional! (20 reviews)
The best part of our Lapland trip was staying at this house. It truly had everything we could have wished for — a sauna, beautiful snowy surroundings, peaceful forest views, fully equipped kitchen, and even drying machines, which were extremely useful. The two-bedroom layout was excellent. One of the bedrooms, located under the roof, offered a stunning view of the aurora — such a magical experience. The kota was also a lovely highlight, especially on the night we went out and were lucky enough to see the northern lights. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful throughout our stay, making everything smooth and comfortable. The location is quiet and relaxing, yet still convenient if you have a car and want to go into the town center. Breakfast was simple but good, and we really enjoyed our easy mornings over the four nights we stayed. The kids especially loved the sledges provided — they had so much fun playing in the snow. We would absolutely love to come back again!

We had a great stay at this apartment and would absolutely recommend it, especially for families traveling with kids. The apartment was very clean, comfortable, and exactly as described in the listing. Everything we needed was provided, which made the stay easy and stress-free. The location was excellent — safe, convenient, and close to restaurants, shops, and nearby attractions. It was easy to get around, and having everything so close was a big plus when traveling with a child. The space itself was spacious and well laid out, giving us plenty of room to relax after busy days out. The beds were comfortable, and the apartment was quiet at night, which is always important when traveling with kids. The host was responsive, kind, and very helpful, providing clear instructions and quickly answering any questions we had. Check-in and check-out were smooth and hassle-free. Overall, this apartment made our trip even better, and we would definitely stay here again. Highly recommended!

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.
