Hirafu Village, Niseko, Hokkaido, Japan

Designed with families and groups in mind, Seshu Chalet offers an inviting retreat where guests can gather, relax, and enjoy all that Niseko has to offer. The expansive open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area sits under soaring ceilings with striking ash wood beams, creating a warm and social space. Lounge on the plush leather sofas by the gas fireplace, enjoy shared meals at the bespoke 12-person dining table, or head to the large basement media room, perfect for movie nights, games, or unwinding after a day on the slopes.

With five spacious bedrooms, including two master suites, two guest rooms, and a traditional tatami room, Seshu comfortably accommodates up to 12 guests. Each bedroom has its own ensuite bathroom, ensuring privacy and convenience for every member of your group. Some rooms also feature dedicated workspaces, allowing guests to balance relaxation with remote work if needed.

Families will love the kid-friendly layout and amenities, while larger groups will appreciate the multiple gathering spaces and generous storage for ski gear. After a day of adventure, unwind in the outdoor jacuzzi, which seats eight and overlooks the private garden—ideal for après-ski relaxation or summer evening soaks.

Multiple balconies provide quiet spots to take in the fresh mountain air, while the heated driveway and front stairs ensure safe and easy winter access. A large garage offers secure storage for skis, snowboards, and outdoor gear, keeping everything organized and ready for the next day’s activities.

Seshu Chalet blends alpine ski lodge charm with traditional Japanese elements, incorporating natural materials like timber, stone, and concrete.

Niseko, Hokkaido, Japan

A world-class ski destination, Niseko receives 14m of snow per season on average. Offering 38 lifts, 4 developed, inter-linked resorts, 47km of groomed slopes, 1000m of vertical, and the longest run stretching 5600m, Niseko is the largest of Hokkaido’s ski areas, and overall the most well-rounded winter resort on the island.
There is a good mix of groomed runs for all levels, from first-timers through expert powder hounds. There is also a terrain park with half-pipes, table tops, round quarters and rails etc… a variety of terrain to suit boarders of different abilities.
That being said, novices going down the slope for the first time may want to avoid the crowds in peak powder season and consider some of the quieter times (spring).
