Tsubasa at Hanaridge

Experience the epitome of alpine elegance at Tsubasa Chalet, an award-winning chalet situated within the exclusive Hanaridge Estate in Hanazono—the 530 sqm property has been named Japan’s Best Ski Chalet 2024 at the World Ski Awards.

This five-bedroom property melds refined luxury and utmost tranquillity in one masterful stroke. Managed by a dedicated team, including a concierge, every aspect of your stay at Tsubasa Chalet is overseen with meticulous attention to detail, setting the stage for your perfect winter getaway. More than just a beautiful setting, the property offers the luxurious convenience of having up to two drivers, both in the morning and evening during your stay. Wellness is also paramount here, with amenities including a 40 sqm private natural onsen with indoor and outdoor bath, a modern gym and a yoga studio.

Designed by the acclaimed Riccardo Tossani, Tsubasa Chalet stands as an architectural marvel that blends harmoniously with its forest surroundings. Spanning three levels, its distinctive Y-shaped design allows you to enjoy breathtaking views of Mount Yotei and the nearby ski resort from every angle. The chalet features five spacious bedrooms, each with an ensuite bathroom, comfortably accommodating to 10 guests.

The modern chalet boasts large picture windows that let the light in and an ingenious layout that creates a seamless flow throughout the space. Culinary enthusiasts will appreciate the state-of-the-art kitchen; the adjoining spacious dining room is a stunning setting to savour meals. The luxury property boasts an expansive living area complete with designer furnishings, stylish wooden accents, and accented with a cosy fireplace and grand piano that provide a stylish setting for unwinding after a long day on the slopes.
