Nestled along a serene snow-laden trail in a tranquil forest clearing, Apukka Resort, though seemingly secluded, is conveniently only a short drive from Santa Claus Village and Rovaniemi International Airport. The dedicated staff ensure an array of excursions are always all day long, from snowmobile tours and horse-drawn sleigh rides to private sauna sessions and guided snowshoe hikes.
The accommodation options include the Aurora Cabins, notable for their Scandinavian design, which boast full heating and en-suite facilities. Nestled away from the main resort, these cabins strategically position guests to embrace the Arctic night, offering optimal views of the mesmerizing Northern Lights.
Introducing the newly unveiled Lappish Kammi Suites—a harmonious blend of authenticity, ecological consciousness, and historical narratives. These rooms seamlessly merge age-old traditions with contemporary Finnish innovation. For those seeking more space, the Lappish Kammi Family Suites provide two bedrooms and a generously sized living area.
The resort’s Ice Log Cottages offer a local interpretation of the classic ice hotel design, incorporating the simplicity and sturdiness of Finnish log cabins. Similar to traditional snow and ice hotels, guests will rest on a block of ice, wrapped in Arctic-performance sleeping bags and the comforting warmth of reindeer hides.
Enter the Aurora Wagons, four mobile carriages complete with heating, double beds, and kitchenettes. Guests have the unique opportunity to spend a night in these wagons at various picturesque locations, from frozen lakes to snowy hilltops—each an ideal setting to witness the dazzling displays of the Northern Lights.
For those preferring a more conventional stay, the resort provides an array of stylish rooms, suites, and apartments. Equipped with flat-screen TVs and complimentary WiFi, these accommodations are ideal for extended stays, ensuring both comfort and modern amenities.
Although dining may not be the primary focus of this resort, Apukka Café on-site fills the culinary gap, providing breakfast, lunch, dinner, and an assortment of snacks. The cuisine is fresh, seasonal and locally sourced from the nearby lakes and forests.
