When I first booked this stay, I had a look at some of the reviews and almost changed my mind. I am so glad that I didn’t! It seems that all of the previous issues have been fixed. There is a reception on sight that offers a lovely breakfast and small selection for dinner. We cooked in our igloo the first night. The kitchen area is small but has everything you need to make a dinner on the hob (no oven unfortunately). The privacy was not an issue as there are curtains and blinds available however we opted to sleep without them to get a full view of the night sky and even managed to sleep under the northern lights. If you get lucky, the lake offers an incredible view of the lights- the reflection makes it very magical. We stayed in the lakeside igloo which had an unrestricted view and meant that we didn’t have to leave our igloo to notice the northern lights to begin with. The other igloos are very close to the lakeside ones though and the best views are outside anyway. The staff were friendly and helpful. They helped us to book a husky experience which was €85 each. It sounds expensive but I couldn’t recommend it enough. You get a whole hour husky ride. We went on carts which we controlled ourselves but were told that they use sledges when it snows. I would recommend hiring a car to get to the igloo but it’s also helpful to have in Lapland in general. Most places are a drive away. The car also gave us the freedom to travel in search of the northern lights late at night. We were recommended to go to Honkivaaran, which is a secluded spot in the forest with an outside toilet, fire pits and viewing point. It’s a good spot for viewing the lights away from any light pollution. Having the car meant that we didn’t have to pay for any of the northern lights chasing trips and had freedom to go on our own. I don’t often write reviews but I honestly couldn’t recommend this place enough!

We wanted to visit Ranua wildlife park to see Finnish animals and found it very easy to book an overnight stay in Villa Gulo Gulo. This included a free buffet breakfast as well as access to the wildlife park for 2 consecutive days for the price of one. We went on the afternoon on day of arrival and again the next morning, and saw all the animals over the two days. We stayed in Ahma which was perfect for a family of 5, and had excellent facilities, including a nice sauna, wood-fired heater and particularly nice lighting. We also booked an experience via Villa Gulo Gulo and went on an Aurora hunt by snowmobile at night. The warm clothing provided is a must as the temperatures are well below freezing and the wind chill factor is significant. Our Spanish tour guide was friendly and informative and we enjoyed hot Glögi and toasted marshmallows by a fire in the wilderness. Seeing the snow-laden trees at night was a special experience and this tour exceeded our expectations, even though we did not see the Aurora on the tour (due to cloudy weather). We would highly recommend staying at Villa Gulo Gulo with a family.

Lovely property a drive away from Ranua Zoo. This place is in the countryside, on a farm with dairy cows, and hosted by a really friendly family. The property is comfortable and spacious with all of the basics you will need (do go to the supermarket/shops before arriving as otherwise you have a long drive there and back). We slept very well, with no noise or disturbances (we were a family of 4, with 2 small kids). The sauna, overlooking the lake, is *really* something. Bring your swimclothes.

My fiance and I stayed a week in the glass igloo, and it might have been the best holiday of our lives. Lapland in winter is simply stunning, and the glass igloo made our experience really special. It's nice and warm inside, the bed is comfortable, there is plenty of storage space, and the kitchen is great for cooking up small dishes (like hot dogs or breakfast). The freely included sauna is a nice bonus too, which we made use of almost every day. :-) We saw the northern lights twice! And this is where the glass igloos excel: You don't have to be out in the freezing cold to wait for the auroras to show up. Instead, you can just stay warm and wait inside and enjoy a glass of wine. It was perfect. The activities they offer are great as well. We went on a husky sled ride which was fantastic, and their partner Luplandi offered amazing tours too! (snowmobiling was another highlight!) All in all, I couldn't be happier with our stay here. Compared to other glass igloos in Lapland, I believe this one offers (by far) the best value for your money!

    Ranua was everything we imagined it to be.

    Ranua was everything we imagined it to be. We got to witness northern lights and had some exceptional snow during our stay. The Ranua zoo wasn't all that great and the food in the wildlife park was very overpriced. But except that, Ranua was wonderful.

    5 Stars service provided by Kimmo and his team. The house is amazing, we felt like were in home there. We opted to get a chef in the house, who prepared the most delicious Finnish food. Ranua is a nice spot for Northern Lights, we could see it from the house yard. Kimmo arranged all the attractions to us, which were amazing and unforgettable. Thank you Kimmo and all the team for the wonderful days in Finland.
