Coronavirus information

The safety of our customers is very important to us!

Please remember to follow the instructions and regulations of the authorities!
You must not come to Santalahti if you have been exposed to the coronavirus or are in quarantine. It endangers the safety of other customers and staff.

Is it safe to travel to Santalahti?
The accommodation services of Santalahti Resort are open and we serve our clients in the best possible way.
Santalahti is surrounded by nature. All accommodations have their own entrance and guests do not have to contact staff or other guests.
Cleaning has been stepped up and we have increased hand disinfectant. Hand washing instructions are also available in all our public toilets. We strive to extend the time between guests at the accommodation.

We are actively monitoring the situation and following the instructions of the authorities.
