Your Gateway to the Mountains

Satoyama Stays offers homes designed for large groups in Myoko and Hakuba, where traditional character meets modern comfort in the landscapes of the Japanese Alps.

Inspired by the Japanese concept of Satoyama (里山), meaning the place between where mountains and villages meet, we create spaces that invite guests to slow down, reconnect with nature, and share meaningful time in connection with one another.
