Location

SETTING / ATMOSPHERE

Yamakei Residences is located in a peaceful valley just off to the western side of Middle Hirafu Village. Surrounded by snowy forest, it has a lovely retreat feel while still be within arms reach of all that Hirafu offers.

LIFTS / TRANSPORT

The lifts are just a three-minute drive away and the property offers scheduled and on-demand shuttle services. Most people won’t want to walk to the lifts in ski boots, but there is easy walking access into Hirafu Village to eat, shop and explore.

There are countless bars and restaurants within walk and shuttle distance. It’s great fun walking into Lower and Middle Hirafu and finding a cosy bar or restaurant when it’s snowing. Upper Hirafu is also within walking distance.

    We enjoyed a truly fabulous time and an unparalleled experience at the Yamakei residences. The three-bedroom apartment was very comfortable, tastefully decorated and well equipped (including a private Onsen). The Concierge Team was unmatched. They were always available and helpful and made us feel like cherished guests with their genuine warmth. They made sure that our stay was stress-free and delightful.

    Yamakei apartments are truly a haven for Instagram-worthy moments! The standout feature is the private onsen in each apartment, which, in my opinion, is the highlight of Yamakei.

    Each of the apartments have an incredible onsen that overlook the forest which is incredible. The properties are spacious, well designed with beautiful locally made but Italian style furnishings. Incredible apartments with easy access to Hirafu. The penthouse also comes with two cars so you have easy access to the slops and ski lifts in winter!

    I believe these are one of the best new apartments in Niseko. I see why they are called residences. Each apartment has a private onsen which is a generous size. Spacious bedrooms, fantastic views make this one of my favourites in town!
