Villa Armas Cabins (Santa Breaks) - Ylläs, Finland
The Villa Armas Cabins are excellent value, well-equipped, semi-detached log cabins which are all conveniently arranged next to each other in a peaceful area. These cabins are an excellent choice if you are part of a larger party wanting to book cabins close to each other, and for those of you who want the convenience of a short walk to the departure point of all the Santa Break activities.
One of the most authentic ways to see Finnish Lapland is to wake up in a warm and cosy log cabin. The cabins in Ylläs are a perfect place to stay for a short break as they are close to the village and excursion pick up point, so you can make the most out of your holiday. Each cabin has its own private sauna and fireplace, perfect for warming up after a snowmobile safari or reindeer sleigh ride. The cabins are furnished with all the modern conveniences you'd need for a comfortable stay in the arctic circle.
Our cabins all have an equipped kitchenette, making them a great choice for families looking to stay self-catered. There's an excellent, well-stocked supermarket in the village centre, along with cafes, shops and restaurants. You'll also have the choice to upgrade to half board, where you can enjoy hearty buffet style breakfasts and dinners in the Akas Hotel restaurant.
Lapland is one of the best places in the world to witness the Northern Lights and staying in the Villa Armas Log Cabins during the winter months provides an excellent opportunity to witness this natural phenomenon. The cabins are also a great base to enjoy our optional extra activities such as snowmobiling, reindeer and husky rides and snow shoeing. Plus after a day of exploring, you can unwind in your cabin's private sauna or by the fireplace.

The Santa Experience
All of our three and four night Santa Breaks include a visit to Santa's Elves Hideaway, which is a short drive from resort. Santa's Elves Hideaway is tucked away in a whimsical, snow-covered forest, adorned with twinkling candlelight. It's a magical place where the whole family can immerse themselves in an enchanting atmosphere. Join the fun at one of Santa's magical workshops and make delicious gingerbread with Santa's friendly elves, meet Santa's reindeer and even attend Elf school, where you'll learn the secrets of Santa's Elves. There will also be plenty of exciting snow games for you to enjoy including tobogganing. The highlight of the day is meeting Santa in his cosy grotto - each family will have a private meeting with Santa and children will receive a present during the visit.
Your Lapland holiday wouldn't be complete without some exciting winter excursions. We have a range of activities available to pre-book which allow you to engage in the unique Lappish culture and traditions of the region. You can race across frozen lakes and snowy landscapes on a husky sleigh ride, cosy up under a blanket and enjoy a reindeer sleigh ride through the scenic forests or whiz your way through the fells on an exhilarating snowmobile safari. Aspiring skiers and boarders are also in luck as you can add on a 'Ski Taster' package on our four night stays, which include lift passes, equipment and lessons. Ylläs is a great ski resort offering pistes for all abilities, with some fantastic beginner slopes, small classes and friendly English-speaking ski instructors. We also include arctic thermal suits and warm snow boots for all adults and children (3 years and over - as these breaks are not recommended for infants), meaning you can 'come as you are' with your normal winter outdoor clothing, and we'll do the rest, so you can relax and enjoy the Lapland snow. The representatives based in Ylläs are also on hand to ensure you make the most of your Lapland holiday - if you need any advice, tips or assistance while you're away, they're more than happy to help.
