The nature-rich compound stands amidst vast forestland at the foot of Mr. Zao.
A total of 12 villas spread across five areas offers 18 guestrooms. The atrium-style design gives an open feel, accentuating Japanese cedar beams.
Guestrooms offer a sun-drenched private terrace, where you can relax amidst nature, feeling time and seasons go by.
Three guestrooms are offered at two villas on the Tsuki-no-Tori (moon path) passageway on the western side of the natural forest. The moon shines directly above these buildings just as you fall into deep sleep.
Enjoy sound of streams and greenery right outside the doorsteps in spring and summer, or overlook mountains and wild rivers afar in autumn and winter.
Three guestrooms are offered at two villas in the area facing Mt. Zao, which was once dubbed as the “unforgettable mountain.”
