This Nordic nation boasts innovative cities surrounded by endless stretches of unspoilt nature. Around 10% of the country is covered by water, with around 180,000 lakes making it a great destination for swimming, boating or fishing. Finnish tourism is very much a tale of two seasons, with the winter period (typically December–March) offering wonderful skiing in Lapland, snowmobile treks and a chance to catch a glimpse of the other-worldly Northern Lights. Summer sees the arrival of the midnight sun and a huge variety of diverse music festivals and wacky events. Keep an eye out for the Air Guitar World Championships and the mobile phone throwing contest. Nicknamed the ‘Daughter of the Baltic’, the capital Helsinki is a hotspot for design shopping, cultural sites and striking architecture. Finland is awash with hotels, lakeside cottages and hostels. Helsinki features the widest range of choice including a number of self-catering apartments. The more remote accommodation options tend to be open in the summer season only.

We got upgraded as we were the only tourists at that time of the year, which was very nice. The cottage was very comfy and clean.
Views are amazing and the location is very quiet.
The owner is adorable.

Guest review
Glass igloos were right choice because three days in a row we were watching Aurora from our bed. There is also frozen lake right next to us with no people around and no light so watching Aurora was amazing.
Apartment is modern, clean, warm, we had a great time.
Breakfast was served night before for tomorrow and it was really good
Hosts are helpful and very polite
Overall we had a great time and i would absolutely recommend this property

Offering an outdoor hot tub and a sauna, this adults-only, wilderness boutique hotel is set in Meltaus, 48 km from Rovaniemi.
Guest review
From the moment we arrived at Beana Laponia, we were welcomed with warmth and kindness by an exceptional team who made us feel right at home. A special thank you to Filippa, Katja, Johnathan, Noel, and Isabel—their attentiveness, professionalism, and genuine hospitality really elevated our stay beyond expectations.
The food was simply next-level amazing—every meal was a delicious, different each day, and bursting with incredible local flavors. The Jerusalem artichoke soup was an absolute standout, and even the meals served during the safaris were delicious and thoughtfully prepared, making every experience feel extra special.
The variety of activities and tours was fantastic, offering a perfect mix of adventure and relaxation. From snowshoeing to snowmobiling, everything was well organized, ensuring we could fully embrace the beauty of Lapland. But without a doubt, the highlight of our trip was the husky tour—the dogs completely stole our hearts! The thrill of gliding through the pristine, snowy landscapes with these incredible dogs was pure magic, they’re all so loveable!
A huge thank you again to Filippa, Katja, Johnathan, Noel, and Isabel for their outstanding hospitality, knowledge, and passion. If you’re looking for an authentic, cozy, and unforgettable Lapland experience, Beana Laponia is the place to be. We can’t wait to return! ❄️🐾🔥
