MAGICAL EXPERIENCES
Meet Santa & Santa's Little Pearls Club
During the Christmas weeks, a little festive magic settles over Merihelmi. One of the highlights is a private meeting with Santa Claus in a traditional Finnish kota hut by the sea. An elf guides each family or group individually to the hut by lantern light, where an unhurried encounter with Santa becomes a Christmas memory to treasure.
For younger guests, Santa’s Little Pearls Club brings extra festive fun. Merihelmi’s own complimentary children’s club runs daily during Christmas week, with activities ranging from making gingerbread houses and baking Finnish Christmas pastries to playing in the snow. A small playground and a long slide add to the fun.
