KIJIMA House

Wake up on the slopes at KIJIMA House — a private, ski-in ski-out lodge for up to 11 in Kijimadaira, Nagano.

Your crew, your slope, and the view that comes with it.

  • KIJIMA House is a private whole-house lodge in Kijimadaira, Nagano. It sleeps up to 11 guests aged 6 and above — children under 6 stay free when rooming with an adult. Due to room sizes, we are unable to accommodate travel cots or additional bedding — if your child requires their own sleeping space, please include them in your guest count.

  • Yes. Children under 6 stay free when rooming with an adult, and the whole house is yours. The kitchen lets you prepare meals on your own schedule, and the quiet village setting gives little ones safe space to roam.

    Driving in Japan: most foreign visitors need an International Driving Permit (IDP) under the 1949 Geneva Convention. Carry it with your home licence and passport. Japan does not issue IDPs — get yours at home before you fly. Drivers from Belgium, France, Germany, Monaco, Switzerland, and Taiwan can use an approved Japanese translation of their licence instead.

  • Check-in is from 3pm; check-out is by 11am. Arrive between 9am and 5pm and the house manager will meet you, show you around, and answer questions. Arriving later? You'll get self-check-in steps in advance, and the manager will visit the next morning. Full arrival details are sent once your booking is confirmed.

    The house is entirely yours — we just ask that you respect Kijimadaira's quiet, rural character. Keep noise low in the evenings, follow Japan's waste-sorting rules (explained in your pre-arrival notes), and treat the lodge and its surroundings with care.
