A winter wonderland on Japan’s rural, northernmost island of Hokkaido, sophisticated Niseko is actually a collection of four distinct, world-class ski resorts on the southeast face of Mount Annupuri. International visitors feel exceptionally welcome here with English-speaking access on the slopes and in the charming villages. While Niseko’s legendary powder gets most of the attention, families will find enticements off the mountain, from scenic hiking trails and championship golf courses to traditional Japanese activities like onsen and geisha banquets.
Sleek Japanese design meets the most modern Western comforts at this rare ski-in and out property in Niseko Village which offers the luxury of flexibility, for your family to enjoy as a three-bedroom townhouse or six-bedroom villa. Some will especially appreciate the master suite’s Japanese cedar wood ofuro bathtub. For others, Apple TV in each bedroom will delight. Under-floor heating welcomes everyone home after a day on the slopes. Your dedicated Destination Concierge has our favorite shiatsu massage therapist and sushi chef on direct dial for you, or let the on-call driver bring you to Hirafu for Hokkaido seafood hotpot.
Niseko’s ultra-dry, light powder is legendary. At this wonderland for snowboarders and skiers of all levels, six complimentary passes give your family unrestricted access to 1,308-meter Niseko Annupuri Mountain. Ski straight out of your villa in the morning, swish down the slopes then leave your gear with the ski valet at nearby Greenleaf Hotel, stopping in for an onsen soak. Springtime sees blue skies meet the vibrant greens of world-class golf courses as Niseko’s famously delectable fruits ripen for harvest. Summer is all about family fun, on foot, horseback, mountain bike or river raft.
