The good news for those seeking a high-end holiday in Japan, you’re in luck. With more luxury ski accommodations available in Hakubathan ever before there are plenty stays to choose from. Here are our top five luxury ski accomodations in Hakuba.
1. ROKA Luxury Apartments
One of the most desirable luxury ski accommodations in Hakuba is the ROKA Luxury Apartments. Every detail has been thought out in this collection of impeccably finished mountain residences. Seemingly secluded, these two to five bedroom apartments are actually very central to the best ski slopes in Japan. Located in a prime position on the Sakka Slope for ski-in-ski-out action. After a day on slopes, take a front seat to nature with glass windows that allow you to marvel at the snowcapped mountains. The apartments have thought out and spacious entertainment areas. But, if you’d prefer to spend your time out and about they’re also located within walking distance to several excellent restaurants. Plus, there’s no chance of waking up in the morning to wet ski gear. The properties are all equipped with a ski locker with integrated boot dryers. Toasty toes in the morning, yes please.

2. One Happo
When it comes to luxury ski accommodations in Hakuba, One Happo has to be one of the most impressive in the area, if not Asia. It’s a James Bond fantasy made real. And while it may be on the expensive side, boy it is worth every cent (if you’ve got them to spare). This chalet directly faces the Happo Ski Resort gondola, making it only 100m from your chalet door to the slopes.
Inside there is WOW-factor at every turn. With everything from a glass pool table (the first ever imported into Japan), to a floor-to-ceiling glass wine room and a stunning transparent fireplace. Use the iPads located discreetly throughout the property to control everything from the lighting to the retractable 3D plasma TVs. There’s even a 250-strong on-demand movie library! The list continues…. sleek marble cocktail bar, Teppanyaki counter, infra-red heated deck – we’re not lying when we say every element is top shelf.

Lizzie was so helpful, gave us some options and advice to help us pinpoint where we wanted to go. And once we had booked provided some really helpful travel advice and answering questions we had. Easy to deal with, everything was smooth and we had a great time.

Calum was awesome at helping us every step of the way with our trip. We got a great deal on the accommodation and ski lift, and we will definitely come back to Mountainwatch next time based on his excellent service.

Thanks Kirsty, once again your arrangements for us in Japan worked very well. We’ll have no hesitation about touching base with you before we make another booking….. not sure if we’ll be organised by June, but we’ll see. Have a great season yourself and keep up the good work at MountainWatch.

Our trip to Hakuba and Tokyo was so smooth and easy thanks to the help of Justine. Hotel was great and in a perfect location and it was very smooth having all our extras like lessons and rentals booked and sorted before we arrived. Would 100% book through Mountainwatch Travel again!

This is the second year that Kristy has organized travel arrangements for a skiing holiday to Furano in Japan, for us.
It is the second time that those arrangements have been fulfilled seamlessly.
No hassles, as planned and on time.
Perfect, and will use Mountainwatchj Travel again.

We booked through Anna O’Malley for our stay in Nozawa onsen Village in Japan. Seamless service, prompt, and pricing reasonable. The Shimataya View Hotel, was a lovely stay. Room size was large, great views, and Amazing service from Staff. Momoi and Eloisa couldn’t help enough- from dinner reservations to organising luggage to Tokyo. Property is older, though clean, well maintained. 10 min walk to slopes, 5 min walk to village centre. I recommend Mountain Watch, and this property. Photos are the view from our room.
