Hotels with Parking in Portimo

Wonderful place in the middle of the forest. There is everything at home that anyone needs. The Ranua zoo is highly recommended. We enjoyed everything

Clean, amazing location, friendly and helpful staff

Location was fantastic, sauna next to the river was magical. Kitchen was well equipped.

The house was perfect. Very comfortable Living room, hot saune, spacious bedrooms...so much better than expected. We even had a Christmas tree :-) The location is close to Ranua (15 minutes by car) and Rovaniemi (1 hour).

Place is a great typical Finnish experience, me and my family loved it. Beautiful environment. Making the sauna with my father was a great experience and also being able to do some grill outside in winter was great!!! The house is really warm and Taking breakfast in the morning with that views is completely incredible.

Very cute house, we really enjoyed our stay, friendly host, big private property!

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!

A very spacious, clean appartment. Everything there that you need, incl. parking. Sauna was very nice. Directly on a lake, unfortunately no snow shoes to run on it.
