What a woman wants for the holidays: ice. 

What you’re going to give her: an entire igloo’s worth.

Igloo VillageIntroducing Kakslauttanen, quite possibly the most romantic igloo hotel on Earth, booking now. 

Nestled in Northern Finland, Kaks is the world’s only resort featuring luxury, glass-enclosed igloos for rent, offering you nighttime views of the Northern Lights without the nethers-nipping temps of a traditional Eskimo hut.

Although there is a refreshing ice hole right next door.

Besides your own personal igloo, Kaks keeps your powder dry with a smoke sauna and outside hot tubs, not to mention a husky-led snow safari

Bringing the kids? Drop ‘em off at Santa’s Resort, a year-round Christmas park featuring “Santa’s House,” reindeer-drawn sleigh rides and, slightly disturbingly, gold panning that’s “under the direction of elves.”

At least it’ll give you a good way to pay for your romantic getaway.
