Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort East Village

A unique Finnish holiday destination offering glass igloos and log cabins for viewing the Northern Lights in a serene Lapland setting.

Tips from the community

The Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort is one of the world’s most distinctive accommodation choices and arguably the most luxurious way to see the Northern Lights. With its thermal glass igloos offering sensational sky viewing and insulated interiors that keep you warm and toasty, this place is both an indulgence and a genial convenience for those who dread the cold. Located in the heart of the dramatic Finnish Lapland wilderness, the Kakslauttanen offers igloos (with and without private sauna) and traditional wooden cabins — which are perfect if you plan to bring the whole family along — as well as a host of super cool daytime activities including husky safaris and snowmobiling. An in-house restaurant and bar complete the impressive picture, which offers a truly stupendous travel experience in what is a remote and unforgiving place.

Whether you’re chasing the Northern Lights or the midnight sun, you’ll have the best view from the comfort of Kakslauttanen Arctic Resort’s two- and four-person glass igloos. Classic glass igloos offer cozy comfort while the newer Kelo-glass igloos are a combination of glass igloo and log chalet made with Lapland Kelo pinewood and equipped with a private sauna and fireplace.
