Location
Perched high up on the mountainside, the Villas are just metres from the edge of the ski slopes above Goryu Escal Plaza, offering rare ski-in, ski-out access to the amazing snow resorts of Goryu and Hakuba 47 (including one of the few night skiing slopes in Hakuba). The ultimate paradise for skiiers and snowboarders!
These spacious and luxurious 3-bedroom and 4-bedroom villas have been individually created to capture this incredible natural beauty, with huge windows offering the most amazing views. You might wake to find animal tracks in the snow outside your bedroom!
While in close proximity to the action on the slopes, the Villas are in a tranquil and exclusive enclave, surrounded by the sheer wilderness of the river flowing by, and the untouched forested mountains.
The entrance to Alpine Tenshi Villa is set back about 10m from the slopes, allowing you to ski down to the lifts at Escal Plaza to start your day, or when returning, ski right in all the way to your front door!
Just a few minutes walk down the hill to the bars and restaurants of Goryu.
Due to the slope-side higher elevation location, during winter season the Villas can only be accessed by 4WD vehicles with snow tires.
