Together with a dedicated, creative and skilled team, we want to bring a bit of a magic to everyone’s lives now with a complete concept including accommodation, luxury Suites with an Arctic look and feel.

VALUES OF CHRISTMAS ARE THE CORE OF THE COMPANY VISION

– INNER ELF –

We genuinely believe in Santa Claus. We are enthusiastic about new ideas and we believe in continuous learning about how guests perceive sensations. We believe in the reward of a simple smile.

– SHARING & CARING –

We do charity work both locally and internationally. Santa Claus from Finland conveys and promotes the Christmas message to the world. We help and encourage one another and grow as individuals, as a community and attempt to create positive and profitable results.

– AUTHENTICITY –

Local traditions and raw materials are strongly present in our activities, work and everyday life. We believe in pioneering and presenting the authentic experience that has been shaped through history.

– LOCALITY –

Our life includes crossing the Arctic Circle every day. We are strongly committed to Rovaniemi and we can express the best of Lapland–pure nature with the summer Midnight sun, the authentic culture and unique position of the Arctic Circle in all its magic.
