Coming onto the property of Helsingfors it was love at first sight! This is where I could live I thought! The staff greeted us like old time friends! The rooms were on the small side,but good, besides we spent most of our times outside embracing the beauty that surrounded us! The lobby was so welcoming and we visited with our fellow travelers. This became our watering hole!
The meals were wonderful! We were serenaded one evening with songs of the gauchos! It didn't get much better than that! Helsingfors always has a place in my heart. Kuban Family

From the food to the setting, this is one of my favorite places on earth. They even let me play with the border collies. Our group hiked, rode horseback and dined on fabulous meals. I loved the fireplace in the lobby

Overall our experience was excellent. The rooms were underwhelming but the lounge and restaurant area were fantastic. The food and service experience was excellent. The staff always helpful. The barman maitre de and waiter combined (sorry forgot his name by now) was very good, always ready to help and an upbeat person. The meals were first class and the wine was good. We did a couple of other all inclusives of this trip a day Helsingfors would do well to offer the same. The cost may be no different but it was always awkward pi King from awkward expensive wine list awkward trying to keep track of the bar bill.

The setting and scenery are just magnificent. We had clear weather with el chaltern visible. The horse riding in to the hills and the walk to the blue lagoon (exhausting) was amazing. Despite the long gravel road to get there it is worth 3 or 4 days just to see the scenery
