- "The design of the igloo and the wonderful view, the friendly staff, the excellent food, the overall resort is perfect (not too big so that you have the impression to be the only guest there🙂) We had a wonderful snowmobile tour and Northern Lights tour - thank you, Bjoörn!!!" - "The hosts, the location, the views, the coziness" - "The igloos are exactly what they look like in the pictures, the main restaurant area is also great and v cosy with really nice food. The hotel is also only 15mins away from a ski resort, snow mobile hire and husky sleigh rides so loads to do. 10/10 holiday would highly recommend to anyone wanting to stay in Lapland."

- "This is one of the most magical places I’ve ever visited. Minna and Aarno are excellent hosts. The food was great, the cabin was clean and spacious, the surroundings were beautiful, and there were a ton of activities that Minna helped coordinate. My family had a great vacation and I can’t wait to come back." - "We really enjoyed our stay at this place. The breakfast was varied, delicious and healthy. The location was perfect for us. We looked into the snow covered forest from our spacious room. The suites were comfortable with a fireplace and a small private sauna. The dinner consisted of home cooked local meals which were very good. The hosts were very helpful and created a very homely atmosphere for us. We will certainly come back if we return to the area."

- "the breakfast was standard; dinner was very good!" - "We are vegetarians and hence apprehensive about the Vegetarian dinner at the Resort. However, the chef was amazing, he made European style vegetarian dishes but meeting with our taste and preferences. I think that it was the best food that we had in Lapland, except for the Indian restaurant at Rovaniemi. No other restaurant could come close to it. Special Thanks to the chef for the same. The reception staff was always smiling and helpful. Restaurant staff was attentive and meticulous. Great Experience. We booked the Snowmobile Tour and that was a great experience too. I think that Ivalo Village is a far better experience than Kakslauttanen, who are rude and do not care for their guests. I would recommend Aurora Village, Ivalo 110%."

- "This place is simply incredible! The ambiance, the staff, and the food is just amazing - amazing reindeer fillet, Arctic charr and perch - so local, so traditional but contemporary in presentation. If you are a foodie you will love this place! So refreshing not see Berger and chips on the menu! The surroundings are simply beautiful-we has a log cabin with a hot tub and sauna which was amazing! We did - snow shoeing, cross country skiing and the huskie ride - all pre booked with the hotel - we loved all of these - we also took a taxi up to the ski resort of Saariselka - which was 50 minutes each way - return in a local taxi was 250€ - this ski resort whilst small had epic snow and was a great day trip organised by ourselves. Totally recommend this place - the fact that it’s adults only is a massive bonus also."
