One night stay outside season

Family visit in April. As we were at the end of the winter season we have missed out on the most of activities what village has to offer. Also everything is at the extra cost , no activities included with Santa stay. We didn’t realise how little to do once the season is over, also little cottages are comfortable enough , but done to the minimal just to provide you basics. I personally would stay in near by A&B with more personal touches and catch a bus to the village just for a visit. Best experience in the area was “Santa Salmon” ! That is 100% a must!

Great space for the family with an extra bedroom, sauna and a small kitchen. Easy access, friendly staff and quiet. Most of the shops and restaurants close by 5 pm, including Santa visit so we missed them. Would have done some of those before check-in if we had known.

The sleds most of them are broken so I feel like they need to be replaced, the pot and pan I. The room needed to be replaced. I would like to have the room cleaned every day or at least have them pick up the trash specially since we have a baby and diapers were piling up.

Ok place to stay

Cute place to spend a couple nights if you have children. Could do a better job on the decorations and area cleanliness. Very limited dining options and since you are stuck in the area you cant venture out unless you get a service. Numerous shops everywhere ready to sell you trinkets. Rooms are basic but comfortable. I would say its a ok place to stay as long as you know its a tourist trap with basic accommodations and not really holiday/winter themed decorations.

Don't Have to Leave the Resort!

Absolutely MAGICAL and charming place to stay! Everyone is so nice, friendly, and helpful! There are several things to do in the area and all of them are walking distance from the resort. We had so much fun with our littles, but there were children of ALL ages.
