These charming apartments tick all the boxes for your perfect Finnish escape—especially if you're planning a magical Santa Break. Nestled right in the heart of Levi, you're just a snowball’s throw from the lively shops, cosy cafés, and festive bars. Each apartment includes a small living area and a handy kitchenette, but the real highlight? Your very own private Finnish sauna—perfect for warming up after a day of snowy fun or a visit to Santa's magical hideaway.
Each apartment offers everything you need for a comfortable and festive stay in Lapland. Designs may vary, but all share a rustic charm thanks to traditional wooden panelling that gives them that classic log-cabin feel. With open-plan kitchen-diners and lounge areas, there's plenty of room to relax with loved ones after a day filled with reindeer rides, snowball fights, plus your personal meeting with Santa himself!
After exploring Levi’s snowy trails or enjoying one of our unforgettable excursions, you can snuggle up in front of a crackling fire—or do as the locals do and unwind in the soothing heat of your private sauna.
If you’d rather not cook on your Santa Break, you can opt for our half board package. Start each day with a hearty buffet breakfast and end it with a delicious evening meal served at a nearby hotel—no cooking, no dishes, just time to enjoy the magic.
The Levi Central Apartments put you at the heart of the festive action. Everything you need is just a stroll away—from twinkling souvenir shops and supermarkets to cosy restaurants serving warming Finnish delights. This location is especially perfect for families during the holiday season, with Levi’s magical Christmas atmosphere filling the air.
Best of all, many of our festive excursions depart just a short walk from your apartment. Glide through the forests on a husky sleigh ride, zoom over the snow on a snowmobile, or enjoy the peaceful silence of the fells on a gentle snowshoe walk.
And of course, no visit to Lapland would be complete without a visit to Santa’s cabin, where children can share their wishes and families can make memories that last a lifetime.
