Located in the quiet Izumikyo 2 district, Annabel is perfectly placed for access to restaurants and the ski slopes but retains that all-important sense of privacy. From Annabel’s expansive windows, stunning views of Mt Yotei and the Grand Hirafu ski hill provide the chalet with some real, jaw-on-the-floor wow factor. The mid-level terrace adds a further vantage point.
The chalet’s design is expansive, right from the grand Japanese-style genkan entrance to the double-height reading room. Wide windows and plentiful glass welcome in warmth and light and allow for unimpeded views of the outside winter wonderland. State-of-the-art entertainment systems and complimentary high-speed internet compliment the indoor recreation itinerary.
The chalet is well served for bathing and relaxation, with a sauna, and a spacious en suite with a Japanese ofuro bath and twin showers adjoining the master bedroom. The fully-equipped kitchen on the middle level flows through to the dining and living areas and also opens to a generous terrace. The lounge features a welcoming gas fireplace, perfect for curling up on the sofa on a cold winter’s night with a cup of cocoa and a good book in hand. A laundry is on the lower level, along with a dry room and storage rooms, ticking the boxes for those creature comforts, too.

Location
SETTING / ATMOSPHERE
Annabel is quietly located in the private enclave of Izumikyo 2, just outside the main hub of Hirafu ski village. This enclave of chalets offers a peaceful environment but one that’s close to the all the village has to offer.
LIFTS / TRANSPORT
Despite its more quiet location, the village shuttle bus makes the ski slopes easily reachable. The complimentary 4WD vehicle which can be parked in the chalet’s private garage makes transport pain free.
RESTAURANTS / BARS
The Izumikyo 2 district is on the outskirts of the main Hirafu village and within easy reach of the two convenience stores and the village’s many restaurants and bars. The excellent shuttle bus service brings all destinations almost to the front door.
