Everything.
Check in was very quick and friendly and staff have a very good knowledge of the area.
Cottages are well equipped, maintained and spacious - we had our own parking space and sauna.
Cottages are in blocks of two joined by an internal porch/hall accessed via an external door. We had no neighbours so we had a very peaceful night. If you were in a group or big family if you had both cottages this would be ideal.
Breakfast was good and lots of variety.
The village itself has lots to see and do, but most faculties close at 5pm , but the large souvenir shop at reception is open until 11pm.
Check out was 12pm so we had time to visit the shops , Santa's post office and meet Ssnta before we left.
The restaurant would be very crowded during the peak season. But we see there is construction site to expand the hotel facility. The food and service at the the restaurant are good though.
Minuses:
The room is super spacious and cozy. The sauna in the room is excellent and it is an enjoyment to stay here. We wish we could stay one more night
Snowman World Igloo Hotel, Rovaniemi, Lapland, Finland

Pluses:
Staff are so friendly and willing to help. Our visit was on a snowy day so some parts of the outdoor playground was closed but we still got a lot fun ice-skating and ice-sliding. The sleep in the igloo was unexpectedly nice since you hardly feel the cold inside the sleeping bag.
First time sleeping in igloo, wonderful experience but it was really cold. Lucky we were given with the sleeping bags. There's a small hole at the top of the igloo to allow the air and the snow to flow in. It was snowing during my stay and my leg was covered with snow when we were sleeping. No bath room inside the igloo, have to use the shares bathroom near the reception.
Minuses:
It was not an individual igloo for each room. There are few rooms in one igloo.

Rovaniemi: The Home of Father Christmas
Rovaniemi is the capital of Lapland, in Northern Finland, and it is placed just a smidge over the line of the Arctic Polar Circle. Unsurprisingly, the climate is positively freezing during the winter months. The average temperature recorded in February 2018 was 13 degrees Celsius below zero. In the Fahrenheit world, this is more or less Alaska.

Originally from Nashville, Tennessee, we got married June 2013 and quickly caught the travel bug! We started “travel hacking” & finally decided we wanted to travel for one year. After 2 years of saving $ and over 2 million miles and points, we sold our cars and apartment and left home January 10, 2016. We started this YouTube channel to share our experiences with friends and family, then decided we really liked vlogging and traveling! So we extended our 1 year trip to now FOUR years :) Now we have a goal of traveling to 100 countries before 2020! We are incredibly thankful to do something we love every day. :)

Snowboarding in Levi, Finland, Lapland
Spent a week in Levi, Finnish Lapland. In the heart of Levi Ski Resort, Hotel Hullu Poro a.k.a Crazy Reindeer Hotel.
Known for its winter ski slopes and views of the Northern Lights.
Levi is a decent place, many slopes, easy access. The view was awesome.
We didn't get much of powder, fresh snow came on our last day which was not ideal, icy slopes.
Although they have an insane dedicated place called South Park which had insane jumps etc. Next time... Next time for sure you will see me frontbackneckflipping.
Can't beat the Japan, Hokkaido experience though. You can check it out here:
