The Ylläs Log Cabins are located in various areas around Akaslompolo, typically between 500 and 1500 metres from the Äkäs Hotel and the nearest ski bus stop (around a 5 to 30 minute walk), depending on the cabin's location. 

The ski slopes and ski school are approximately 3 kilometres away. The ski bus stops just outside the Äkäs Hotel. You’ll also find a number of excellent cross-country ski trails beginning nearby.

The large village supermarket is up to 1 kilometre from the cabins (around a 5 to 30 minute walk). There's also a selection of cafés and restaurants for those who prefer to dine out.

For guests with reduced mobility, we recommend the Villa Armas Cabins, which are situated closer to the resort amenities including the Akas Hotel.

The Ylläs Log Cabins are offered on a self catered basis. You can choose to upgrade to half board, which includes a hearty breakfast and a three-course buffet-style dinner, served at the Äkäs Hotel.

Each cabin features a well-equipped kitchen, so you can prepare delicious meals from the comfort of your own space. A large supermarket is located in the village centre and is open until 9pm (opening hours to be confirmed locally). You’ll also find a handful of cosy restaurants dotted around the village.

To make your holiday even more relaxing, you can pre-book the optional half-board supplement. Start each day with a generous breakfast buffet and return in the evening for a satisfying three-course dinner, both served at the Äkäs Hotel.

You may request a specific cabin name at the time of booking through our Inghams Reservations Team. We will pass your request to our cabin rental agency, who will confirm if your chosen cabin is available. If it is not, the exact cabin will be allocated and advised upon arrival.

Your request will be shared with our cabin partner, and we’ll contact you closer to your departure date to let you know if it has been granted.
