Akas Alp Apartments (Santa Break)

The highly recommended Äkäs Alp Apartments are located in a scenic and peaceful location in the traditional, unspoilt Lappish village of Äkäslompolo.

The comfortable apartments are in the most convenient location for reaching the centre of Äkäslompolo village and you'll be able to make the most of the facilities at the nearby Äkäs Hotel. Have a dip in the indoor pool, or unwind and rejuvenate in your private sauna- excellent for warming up after a day of exploration.

The modern apartments are designed to be your cosy home away from home, with a range of restaurants, bars, and a well-stocked supermarket are just a walk away. Your stay is based on half board, with breakfast and dinner being taken at the Äkäs Hotel (approx. 100 metres), meaning you can focus all of your attention on days spent exploring Lapland. Each day you can fuel up for a day of arctic adventures with a hearty breakfast buffet, and when it comes to dinner a delicious three course evening meal is served in the cosy restaurant.
