Our holiday to Lapland was everything you want and more!
The hotel was lovely, we stayed in a spacious apartment with our own sauna overlooking a beautiful frozen lake 5 minutes walk away from the main hotel. We was on bed and breakfast basis, the breakfast was buffet style with plenty of choice. We ate in the O'Neill's bar in the evening and the food was lovely, my wife is gluten free although they don't mark intolerances on the menu they were able to cater for my wife. The hotel is set on beautiful grounds with frozen lakes, they had plenty of sledges you could go sledging around the hotel which was great fun, The TUI elves (reps) were brilliant and did everything to make our Lapland trip magical, playing games on the bus to entertain the children. The taster day was brilliant, we didn't do extra tours as they were very expensive but to be honest the taster day / Santa visit filled the time as there is plenty to do at the hotel (Sledging / Swimming). Two things the hotel is not near any town (just surrounded by trees) and the nearest supermarket is a long walk, there is a small shop on site. The Angry Birds park is not included in the package and you have to pay extra, but to be honest we didn't have time as plenty do to.

Magical holiday to Lapland we will treasure for forever!

Best trip ever. Hotel perfect, stayed in a outside bungalow which was perfect, heater oven to dry clothes fully stocked kitchen appliances. The swimming pool is amazing. Trips with tui fantastic no need to book more, tasters were a really good day out. Cant recommend enough perfect trip of a lifetime.

Amazing

Lovely hotel and apartments. Clean, tidy, helpful staff and everything you could possibly need for your duration of stay. 
Pool- was a nice pool but confusion over the changing rooms, how to get to the pool area, staff chasing people to shower before they get into the pool. Also after being in the pool, the changing rooms are freezing!! It felt like cold air was being blasted through the vents. Plus everyone was walking around in the changing rooms completely naked. It didn't bother us but can understand if it bothered some.
Angry birds land- kids loved it! Was clean, safe and had water fountains and cups for kids to help themselves whilst in there. It was free during our stay with TUI. Not sure how much it would usually cost thought.
Bowling- was fine and a friendly guy running it. Slightly expensive and then found out you also have to pay extra to hire the bowling shoes?! 
Olearys bar/restaurant- amazing food! Delicious and we thought it was a reasonable price for our family of 5. 
Hotel shop- perfect for milk, bread, snacks and treats etc. Expensive but handy to have it. 

Breakfast included with our package could have been a bit better. Would be nice to see items from a full English; sausage, scrambled eggs, baked beans etc. Other rhan that, was a nice choice. 

Apartments- equipped with everything you need for your stay. Lovely touch having a sauna in the rooms and the drying cupboard was well used by us. 

We went out for the day on Xmas, to Llamintupa Park. Hotel staff booked our taxi for us, it was €70 each way but was well worth it for all the cheap activities they provide. Was lovely for us to spend Xmas day there creating memories. 

Overall, I'd give the hotel a 9/10 and would definitely go back if I had the chance.

December 2021

Just home from an Xmas stay at this hotel and it was almost perfect in every way. I'll start with the very small amount of cons which are: we chose to eat b&b but the breakfast choices weren't great for our children. There could have been more of a variety of food; maybe to include pastries, baked beans, sausages etc. Me and my husband were fine with the food though. The other only con is, if you're staying in an apartment/cottage, you have to walk around 5 minutes with your Suitcases and bags of ski suits and boots when you arrive. Which can be quite an effort if you have children with you too. 
Now on to the pros: we stayed in a 2 bedroom annexe apartment which was so well equipped with everything you could possibly need for your stay. The apartment was spacious, warm and very well sound proofed (probably the best sleep we've ever had on a holiday). 
Luckily we got to use the pool before the guidance changed and we were very happy with it. Changing rooms are absolutely freezing though and most people walk around completely naked. 
Olearys bar and restaurant is lovely and the food tasted amazing! Added bonus that it had angry birds land and bowling attached to it so you can make a real evening out of it. Hotel reception area was always spotlessly clean and staff very friendly. 
We booked with Tui and the reps were great with everything. 
Overall we'd give the entire stay a 9/10 and would definitely recommend 

Christmas Stay 

We stayed here for 3 nights in December 2 adults and 2 children (7+4) ,this review is only about the hotel for more information of my experience with Tui there is plenty of help and support groups on Facebook.

Room
We stayed in a 2 bedroom bungalow, the hotel and bungalow had a centre parcs feel about it.
The bungalow was spacious, clean and modern with a sitting room with a smart TV a kitchen with sink, fridge freezer, oven and dishwasher. The room also had what looked like a fridge freezer when you walked in, but soon found out it was a cloths "oven", designed for drying and warming the cold weather suit you are supplied with by Tui
Our bathroom had a washing machine, walk in shower and a sauna.
The two bedrooms had single beds in our room they where pushed together and the children's room they where pushed apart. Both rooms had ample storage for a short stay.The only thing to be aware of with staying in the bungalows is they are the furthest from the main part of the hotel, reception, swimming pool and restaurant about a 10 minute walk, however the children loved being out in the snow

Hotel
As I said previously the hotel had a centre parcs feeling about it. The grounds are really big and looks beautiful covered in snow, with some large hills which my kids enjoyed sledging down
There where plenty of sledges available for the kids to enjoy and where really useful for moving the suitcases from the reception to the room and back.
the hotel was great in a secluded location about 25 to 30 minute walk from the nearest supermarket

Swimming pool

We found the swimming pool to be great the children loved it, the staff where not concerned with what you wore eg the men didn't need to wear speedo's, however they made sure you had showered before going into the pool.
In the locker room you need a card to lock the locker provided, these where big enough to put your cold weather suits in, however be prepared for a lot of nudity the locals aren't body conscious or as reserved as us Brits and where happy to walk around in the changing room, sauna and steam room in the buff, it was actually mandatory to use the steam room and sauna with no trunks on, but you where allowed to go in with a towel to cover your modesty.

Restaurant 

We stayed bed and breakfast so only eat in the restaurant in the mornings,
We found the food fairly nice with a selection, don't get me wrong it was no 5 star all inclusive breakfast, but was enough choice to set you up for the day.

Angry Birds and O'Learys 

We eat in O'Learys on the first day and my kids played in the angry birds fun park which they loved, it was supposed to be €10 each however when we went there was nobody to pay, so the kids just went in. 
The meal at O'Learys was very nice, just so you are aware Finland is not cheap and O'learys was no exception.

Thus was a once in a life time trip and loved every minute of it, and would highly recommend it to anyone

Family Trip to Lapland to see Santa

Arriving in Finland, it was extremely well organised with a Tui short coach trip to Hotel.
Family of four adults and two children, my husband and I booked a double room in the hotel which was very clean and warm, bathroom, shower very clean, lots of hot water, bathrobes provided but no kettle which we got from reception very easily. You need to take your own tea and coffee, milk can be purchased from hotel shop along with light snacks, drinks etc.
Family of four had an apartment, it was brilliant, two bedrooms two bathrooms, fully fitted kitchen well equipped with fridge freezer, washing machine, cupboard drier, log burner, sauna and balcony with seating area.
Went on a B&B and evening meal basis, food was excellent with plenty of choice, soft drinks, tea and coffee was provided and water is safe to drink.
Hotel has free to use swimming pools for their guests, a bit disappointing that the angry bird centre and bowling alley did not open until 2pm, therefore could not use as on organised trips, small arcade for children games.
Trips to see reindeer and husky ride tasters were very good, well organised and a light soup and bread was provided for lunch.
Trip to see Santa was excellent.
On a three night stay an evening gala dinner was provided which was  perfect lovely food and entertainment, fabulous atmosphere and evening fireworks
Hotel has a restaurant for people on just B&B not sure if this would have been cheaper than half board as you did get one evening meal in with your price. I would guess it would be around £50 to £60 per head for a two course meal and drinks are more expensive than at home.
Overall this hotel is magical with free sledges for the kids and it is in fabulous forest and lake surroundings for people who enjoy walking or cross country skiing.
Would recommend

Magical

We stayed here one week last winter, through RCI. Although it was between Kuusamo city and Ruka Ski center, it seemed to be an excellent location and choice for us. A bus goes both ways. One day we did cross country skiing to Kuusamo center and came back by bus and one day we took a bus to Ruka for doing alpine skiing.

We also found a market from a walking distance and there was a conditoria and café just opposite the road from our cottage! We had an own cottage and it was clean and spacious. There was a sauna in it but we also visited twice in the spa.

A spa, restaurant, etc. were on a walking distance and we used also a sled which they borrow in reception. Our kid enjoyed Angry Birds park three times.

I found only two minuses, one was closed gym -because of covid19 but everything else were open, so...?!? Another was a fire place, which can smoke a lot if you don't read instructions before ignitioning.

Everything you need

The hotel is located well, has good sledging directly at the hotel, caters for families really well and staff were very friendly.
The Angry Birds centre was a good extra touch, the bar was decent and I found breakfast good.
Probably could do with a few more options at dinner and the pool (whilst great) was a little colder than it promised to be

Good base for a winter/christmas trip

Visited here on a tui package over Christmas , arrived and was taken to welcome meeting, collected our snow suites - they have a great eye and matched us all with the correct sizes!!, we stayed in a bungalow about a 3 min walk from the main hotel. If you have a small family I would say stay in main hotel as you have all the facilities on hand but we found the bungalows perfect as we are a family of five and it gave a lot of room for us, they have everything you need, sauna, fire burner and an enclosed seating area right on the snow!
Hotel was perfect, clean, tidy, friendly, swimming pool, bar, huge indoor play park (€10 all day). We went half board and the food was lovely but my only gripe is that it was very limited choice- used to going A/I so might be me but some nights had to buy kids meal from the bar- no drama really. 
People say it’s expensive but to be honest I did not find it that bad, any sky resort you go to you will pay more and this is Lapland ! 
€10 kids meals
€20-€30 adults meals
€9 a beer (16:00-18:00 happy hour 😉)
Lots of places to sledge 🛷 around the lake. Tui had everything slick and organised to the letter, we did Santa’s day in the cottage, sledging, marshmallow roasting and hot berry juice. Sang Christmas carols and seen Santa 🎅 
Taster day was brilliant and all that was needed for a 4 day trip (would struggle to fit more in and the longer excursions are expensive but depends on you. We were more than happy, a husky sledge around the frozen lake, snowmobile sledge through the forest, feed the reindeer, snowmobile ride around a set lap, gingerbread making, soup and bread, then back to the hotel singing more carols
Christmas gala dinner was great, picked up and taken to what only looks like something out of Harry Potter, dinner, songs, games and a fire works display to finish it. 
Hotel is a little out of the way but we did not have a reason to leave! Bud can take you to town (not very reliable I’m told) taxi is around €60 each way. 
The hotel has a centre parks vibe to it, tui have activities through the day, kid’s entertainment after dinner and a pantomime 1 night. 
I would go back tomorrow!!

Santa’s magic holiday

We've just returned from a fab 3 night stay. The hotel is very clean, even with people walking around in snow boots there's no wet floors. 
Staff were very friendly and there was always someone about who was able to help.

The swimming pool was lovely and warm, you are expected to have your hair wet before going into the pool, I had showered but not done my hair and was asked to do my hair. There were lots of rocket floats for the little ones to use which was great and gave my little girl some independence in the water. 

Plenty of sledges to use. Some were broken but there still seemed to be lots around. We didn't have any issues getting any and our group used 3 a day. 

The walk to the lodges is easier with suitcases in sledges so grab one to pull your case. 

The lodge was very spacious, we stayed in A7. 
Lots of room and everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The rooms are very toasty. We had a sauna but didn't have chance to use it as we were either out on trips, sledging or sleeping! 

The breakfast food choice was limited for warm options, but overall there was lots to pick from, I just have fussy children! 

O'learys food was nice, OK portion sizes but as with everything, it is very expensive. We ordered 2 adult burger meals and 2 kids meals. 2 small cokes, 1 large coke and a beer and this was about €85. We knew it was going to be pricey so wasn't an issue. 

The shop has lots of basic items that you need. 

Overall a great trip and would definitely recommend.
