Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort Glass Igloo Finland

Glass igloos are a unique and ideal option for getting away from it all. While each log chalet features a private sauna and log fire and there is also the Queen Suite which is ideal for celebrations and has a private hot tub.

Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort is home to the original glass igloos: a special design of thermal glass so you can view the Northern Lights from your bed without the chill. You can also stay in a Kelo Cabin with a glass igloo bedroom which are available if you prefer the best of both combining space and comfort with the perfect opportunity to see the starry sky and Aurora. Activities are in small groups and we also include thermal clothing for the activities, so you don’t need to worry about getting cold.

If you’re looking for a short break to see the Northern Lights or an aurora mini break, then this package could be perfect for you.

Package Overview

Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort is a winter wonderland. Imagine spending the night in a warm glass igloo where you can lie on your soft reclining bed and look through the thermal glass as you wait for a glimpse of the magical Northern Lights. Picture log cabins dotted around the forest. Snow covered trees glisten. Breathe in the crisp, fresh air. The original Glass Igloo holidays.

You step into your cabin where you can smell the roaring log fire and hear the crackle of the wood. After a daytime activity of a husky sledge safari you come back to enjoy the private sauna in your cabin. Following dinner you have a reindeer safari to look for the Northern Lights, the reindeer are slow and steady through the forest as you cosy up underneath the blankets and glance to the sky looking for the magical aurora. Tomorrow you have a snowmobile safari through the forest and you may see arctic hare or moose.

Maybe it’s your anniversary, honeymoon or a special birthday you’ve chosen an upgrade to the fabulous Queen suite and you have your own private hot tub to enjoy. Either way you’ll love your magical stay at the Igloo Village.
