Chalet of the Week: Shiyuki

Explore Furano’s beauty with this stunning Hokkaido chalet as your base.

Your dream Hokkaido holiday begins here. Witness the beauty of boundless mountainscapes at Shiyuki, a two-storey chalet in Furano with panoramic views of Furano Valley and beyond.

While Furano’s slopes are yet to be as well-known as Niseko, the ja-pow is arguably more mythic. Softer, dryer, powder falls in abundance and fewer crowds mean fresher runs just minutes away from the chalet’s doorstep. In summertime, the destination enthrals with lavender fields that appear to go on forever, and a whole host of outdoor activities.

But with winter soon approaching, you can bet that this Hokkaido chalet will be snapped up quickly. Make your reservation ahead of the ski season for the best deals available. Able to host up to 10 guests comfortably in four bedrooms, this chalet is just perfect for group vacations with family and friends.

Here’s why you should book this beautiful property, ASAP!


THE LOCATION: HEART OF THE ACTION

Enjoy prime access to some of Hokkaido’s best powder snow while having the privacy and tranquillity of Shiyuki’s exclusive neighbourhood. The chalet is just seven minutes by foot from the Furano Resort and close to the Kitanomine Gondola Station.

Shiyuki is also within walking distance of nearby restaurants and bars; it’s a perfect base camp for your Furano adventures. You’ll never be too far from the ski action or Hokkaido’s diverse year-round offerings.

THE DESIGN: LOCAL NUANCES

Admire the chalet’s elegant take on modern design. The wooden beams, reminiscent of Japanese kominka (a traditional folk house), draw your gaze across the balcony and out to the lush landscape of Hokkaido. Large windows face picturesque views of the wilderness that you can enjoy while lounging in this modern chalet.

THE AMENITIES: EFFORTLESSLY CHIC

Come back to the cosiest environment after an action-packed day outdoors. Rest easy in the stunning open-plan living room and catch up on your favourite series on the Smart TV. Then grab a drink or coffee in the kitchen. The culinary space is equipped with a wine chiller, Nespresso coffee machine and is well stocked with coffees and teas.

Then find comfort and respite at the four cosy mountain-facing bedrooms. Able to comfortably host up to 8 guests, each room features its own closet and a king-size bed that can convert to twin-size beds upon request. The spacious master bedroom on the second floor features a cosy living area with a sofa and TV, as well as a Japanese-style onsen tub made from fine Hiba wood; a perfect retreat after a long ski day.

THE SERVICE: ALL YOU NEED

Enjoy a Hokkaido holiday that has all the fun and no fuss. Reach out to the concierge and have them assist with making restaurant reservations and transport arrangements.

In winter, make pre-arrival arrangements for a complimentary driving service that brings you to nearby attractions in Furano; contact the team for more information. Summertime guests enjoy complimentary transfers between the chalet and Fenix Furano hotel; the latter is the check-in location for this chalet.
