Amazing property and experience- and would highly recommend! We came during the off season but the staff were so energetic and accommodating! The reindeer weren’t out yet so they had the hearder put them in the penned section so we could take pictures. Dinner at the resort was fantastic each night! We didn’t get to see the northern lights but the overall experience was 11/10!

Arctic Dreams and a €600 Nightmare: My Kakslauttanen Review My week at Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort East Village March Arctic experiences abruptly interrupted by a discordant, and frankly, insulting note. The High Notes: My arrival was seamless. Despite a late flight, a friendly, English-speaking driver awaited me, even sharing some Finnish phrases – a warm welcome that set a high bar. The resort truly shines in its curated experiences. The Aurora Hunting with Snowmobile Sleigh was a thrilling introduction to the Arctic wilderness, with a knowledgeable guide who brought the landscape and its history to life. The Reindeer sleigh ride was pure magic, a serene journey through snow-laden forests that I enjoyed so much, I booked it twice! The Kakslauttanen Planetarium offered fascinating insights into the aurora, and the Husky Safari was, without a doubt, the highlight of my trip. The connection with the dogs and the thrill of the ride were unforgettable. The resort's consistent accommodation of my disability throughout these experiences was truly commendable. The Crashing Low: The €600 "Aurora Hunting by Car" Rip-off Then came the 3hr "Aurora Hunting by Car" excursion, a €600, three-hour travesty that shattered the illusion of Arctic perfection. This single excursion cost double all my other activities combined and matched the price of a business class flight with all its perks to the UK. This was not a "tour" or a "hunt." It was a grossly overpriced taxi ride.

Kelo-Glass Igloo was fantastic!

Fantastic resort! Only one restaurant was open and the food wasn’t great (it was fine, just not great) but everything else made up for it. We stayed in a lovely Kelo-Glass igloo and absolutely loved it. The activities were fun—best were snowmobile, dog sledding and feeding the reindeer.

Stay on the west side!

When we arrived we found that we had booked the east side igloos that have to shower facilities & a long walk through the snow to get to a shared shower room. This was not what we were expecting for such expensive accommodation! Luckily we got help from a great guy named Anastasios who got us into the west side of the property with an upgrade to an igloo with great facilities, where we saw the northern lights! Thank you so much Anastasios for saving our bucket list trip from being a disaster! You have great understanding & very helpful customer service skills! The resort is much better in the west side…east side I would rate not much higher than back packer accommodation at a ridiculous price! The food could be better too for the price!

We stayed 2 nights in Feb 2025. First night was at the Glass Igloo then Log Cabin at the East Village. Pros: We chose the East versus West for a more authentic experience. Anastasio at the reception desk was accommodating and welcoming. Food selections at the restaurant for Breakfast and Dinner were great as are the ladies, Mailyn and Rochelle, the servers who always had a smile when you walk in. I see all workers really work hard in doing their jobs including the shuttle drivers and the guy who lit the fireplace in our cabin. CONS: East village Glass Igloos could use some renovations. There were some bugs on the floor. Whoever is in charge of booking is a huge let down. When I booked my Glass Igloo reservation, I mistakenly booked for 2 nights. I immediately sent a message to Kaklaustannen and later with help of Expedia reps to have the 2nd night, NOT CANCEL, but switch to Log cabin for comfort of my husband who is 72 years old. They repeatedly denied even though for it’s for medical reasons since my husband has a bad knee and heart issue. I end up purchasing an extra reservation for the 2nd night so he could be more comfortable at the Log Cabin. So I had 2 reservations for the 2nd night!! The management is downright callous, inconsiderate and greedy.Log cabins are actually cheaper than Glass igloos and I initially booked in Oct ‘24. Plenty of time to switch. Even the Expedia reps tried to help and advocated since it’s for medical reasons but to no avail.

No accommodating at all. No shower in the igloos. We have to walk so much to find the shower cabin in a negative degree weather. Then there were no signs to follow the route. The cancelled one of plans Husky last minute and did not really accommodate us with any other option. We wasted our whole day and a lot of time staying at this place.
