Ounasvaaran Lakituvat

Ounasvaaran Lakituvat chalets are located in Rovaniemi, on top of the fell Ounasvaara, near to the Arctic Circle. The chalets are in the middle of a network of hiking trails and cross country ski tracks. Ski slopes are only 200 meters away. Santasport Center with it's modern well being services and spa facility is within a walking distance. Although the chalets are surrounded by the nature where also a pack of reindeer is commonly seen on the yard, the chalets are only about three kilometers away from lively Rovaniemi city center.

Beautiful quiet place

Reviewed By Merino S

I stayed 10 days solo. The location was perfect as I could take the running trail straight from the door. The accommodation is located in Ounasvaara Park, which is an endless forest with well maintained trails. At the same time I was about 3 km away from the city center, and maybe 1km away from a big grocery store. I wish I could afford to stay longer.

Lovely area

Reviewed By Marja82

We stayed here with tents for 2 nights. The lady at reception was really sweet and helpful. The area for tents was a lovely grass area which is level with soft soil which made it easy to put the tent pegs into. The showers had good pressure and hot water. There are only two toilets for ladies and 2 for men, so sometimes one had to wait for their turn. There are no hand towels, so you need your own. The kitchen block was small but neat. You can borrow bikes for free to ride up town which was great! The only thing we would change is to pitch our tent away from the cabins. We were unfortunate to have rude people stay up on the first night talking in loud voices while they sat on the verandah of their cabin which was only a few metres away from our tent. We like our peace at night and couldn't sleep. We asked them several times to keep the volume down but they didn't care, and they finally stopped talking about 3am. Why book a place to sleep when you intend to stay up all night and ruin everyone else's sleep? If you're lucky with peaceful campers, it is a lovely place to stay.

Northern light

Reviewed By rolandfF9723BX

The cottage is very nice and comfortable, very well equipped. We were 8 people and there was plenty of everything in the kitchen. It is in a very quiet location but everything is close by for sports activities and shopping. It was a relaxing week with snow scooters, dog sleds and the Northern Lights. I'll definitely come back ? thanks to Nicola and Tanja

Sallainen Caravan and Cabins

Beautiful caravan area with over a hundred electric places and twelve cabins with sauna for 2+2 persons. Sallainen Caravan and Cabins are located by lake Keselmajarvi and in the heart of Sallfell and ski resort. Spa, restaurants and other services are all less than half a kilometer away. Ski and hiking tracks burst the area and you can ski right to your cabin door from the slope. There's an idyllic fireplace by the lake and only few steps from the area a peaceful, sunny beach.

comfort in the middle of nowhere

Reviewed By PeasmoldWW

My three night stay in Sallatunturi was a bit of a washout in an otherwise record-setting hot summer, but Sallainen Cottages somehow made up for it. The weather on my arrival day was horrendous, but the management granted me complimentary early checkin so I could journey early and avoid the worst of the poor driving conditions: hugely appreciated. Once there, the cottage was lovely, just the right size for a solo traveller or a couple, recently built with a separate bedroom, well-equipped kitchen, comfortably furnished, good wifi and a welcoming sauna to compensate for the miserable weather. Linens and towels were spotlessly fresh. The location, just beside the fell, is also perfect for hiking, and the town of Salla, just 10 km away, has decent supermarkets in case you forgot to stock up en route (Salla also has petrol stations). The owners kindly provided a detailed local map, showing all services, attractions and trails If you are touring around Lapland this is an ideal place to relax in comfort in a location that proudly announces itself as ‘the middle of nowhere’.

Ollilan Lomamajat

Ollilan Lomamajat has eight well-equipped cottages located around the shore of Lake Valijarvi. All the cottages have their own sauna, which is heated with wood. Restaurant Juomuskota is great for weddings, family gatherings, birthdays and meetings.

Rip off place, too high price, no actual toilet, and a very bad customer service

Reviewed By mrosh80

This property hides important information from its booking page and charges you extra to upgrade if you want on the spot. I booked this property from booking.com and it claims that it has "private bathroom" and posts pictures of shower and sauna with washing basin that makes a wrong impression that it is a normal bathroom. But when we arrived we noticed that there is no proper toilet and instead it has a compost toilet across the yard like 20 meters from the cottage with no running water (no flush). We were shocked because we had previously booked similar cottages with normal bathrooms, and we were so bummed that this cottage's pictures and information were misleading us. The owner told us he could upgrade us to the next level cottage and we paid extra 20 euros for one night for it. If you want linens it costs 8,5 euros (per person) and if you want towels too, the cost will be 12,5 euros per person - which is quite high price in comparison to similar places (e.g. 7,5 euros for both towel and linen in our previous cottage). They also charge a cost for cleaning if you do not clean after yours. We could find long hairs from previous residents in the cottage. I have been in similar types of cottages before and they had better quality/price ratio. The owner did not apologize for any inconvenienece about the missing information and kept saying that he does everything absolutely right but I talked to booking.com and they said owner was responsible for misleading information. I am not the only customer who fell in this trap! Long story short, I would avoid this place becuase of the total high price, hiding important relevant information, and the attitude of the owner. There are so many alternatives in the region, I would choose one of them and definitely NOT this one.

Unsauber und unfreundlich

Reviewed By worldtravelerju

Wegen einer Verletzung wollten wir die Unterkunft über zwei Woche vor unserem Trip stornieren, der Host reagierte darauf sehr unfreundlich und hat nicht versucht einen guten Ausweg für beide Parteien zu finden. Daraufhin entschieden wir uns doch hinzufahren, weil wir unseren Trip nicht aufgeben wollten. Leider konnten wir uns auch kein Auto ausborgen und mussten deshalb den ganzen Weg vom Bahnhof zur Villa Virpi zu Fuß gehen (mit 25kg Koffer und mit Schnee und Eis auf der Straße!!). Als wir ankamen hat uns der Host eher überrascht empfangen (mein Freund hat exlizit geschrieben, dass wir doch kommen würden). Auf der Tagesbettdecke in unserem Zimmer waren Flecken und Haare. Außerdem waren im Kleiderschrank ebenfalls Haare und Staub und sonstiger Dreck (der Spiegel wurde auch seit ewigkeiten nicht mehr geputzt). Im Wasserkocher war noch Wasser drinnen (von Gästen davor?). Um die Tür zu unserem Zimmer öffnen zu können musste ich mich mit vollem Gewicht dagegen drücken. Zum zu sperren gab es nur ein kleines Vorhängeschloss (von außen) und eine Türkette von innen(konnte man von außen auch aufmachen also nicht sicher!!). Im Klo ist bei unserer Ankunft und bis am Tag danach ein Müllsack am Boden gelegen. Das Badezimmer war generell sehr dreckig (siehe Fotos) und die Dusche war sehr rostig und hat auch nicht sauber ausgeschaut. Der Kühlschrank in unserem Zimmer war extrem laut (vor allem in der Nacht störend) und ebenfalls sehr schmutzig (siehe Fotos). Es gab keine Covid-19 Sicherheitsmaßnahmen und kein Handdesinfektionsmittel. Der Host spricht nur sehr brüchiges Englisch Die gemeinsam benutzte Küche war jedoch gut ausgestattet.

Perusmökki Kumpula

Reviewed By Terhi8

Mökin hyvä puoli oli sen sijainti Tahkolla. Huono maku jäi monesta seikasta: tullessamme mökki oli todella likainen, tahmainen ja pölyinen. Esimerkiksi wc haisi todella pahalle ulko-ovelle saakka (ihmiseritteelle) ja sohvalla oli mm. spaghettia. Mökki tultiin pyynnöstämme siivoamaan, mutta tilanne ei juurikaan muuttunut, sillä käytössä olleet siivousvälineet olivat nekin likaisia. Siivousrättien ja pyyhkeiden peseminen yöpyjien välillä olisi ollut helppoa, koska mökissä on pesukone. Mökkiin oli tuotu puhtaita pyyhkeitä ja laudeliina, joten mökin kunnon olisi voinut huomata jo sillä käynnillä. Lopulta siivosimme mökin itse uudelleen, mutta wc jäi haisemaan, koska siivousvälineitä sen puhdistamiseen ei ollut, emmekä toisaalta kokeneet, että se kuuluisi saapuvien asukkaiden tehtäväksi. WC:ssä oli myös pitkänukkainen matto, joka varmasti oli osasyy hajuun. Mökistä puuttui tavaroita, mm. käsisaippuaa, tulitikut (mökissä puukiuas), kahvimitta ja palovaroitin oli poissa katosta hyllyn päällä, jolloin sen toiminta estyy/viivästyy. Äänieristystä ala- ja yläkerran välillä ei ollut, vaan kaikki kuului molempiin suuntiin.
