Sakura 88
Stunning spacious villa with large garden

The Villa

Sakura 88 is a gorgeous and spacious villa offering guests the ultimate in comfort, space and luxury.

The owners of Sakura 88 wanted to maintain the charm, space and beauty of this architect-designed house. The result is an imposing structure with generous and light-filled living spaces in expansive grounds surrounded by gardens and forest.

The villa extends over two levels. The large lounge and kitchen/dining room are on the lower floor, together with two guest bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms, a luxury hotel-style hot tub, a separate toilet, a dedicated laundry, and a ski/drying room at the entrance. A further two bedrooms with ensuite bathrooms are located on the upper level, together with a large, bright multipurpose/gallery space.

The villa is immaculately furnished and fitted out to the highest standard, from the fully tiled bathrooms, to the custom dining table and luxury furniture.

Sakura 88 is located in Misorano forest, 10 minutes walk from lively Echoland with its numerous bars, restaurants and shops. The shuttle stop for free shuttle buses is also just a few minutes' walk away, allowing guests to explore and enjoy all the major ski areas in the Hakuba valley. There is also room for car parking outside the chalet for guests who have their own cars (recommended for maximum freedom and flexibility).

LOUNGE

The lounge was created so that 8 guests can relax in two comfortable areas: one next to the TV for chilling out on the deep body-hugging sofas, and the other closer to the front deck which is ideal for chatting, reading or relaxing while gazing at the mountains. The two separate lounging areas are perfect for kids and adults to enjoy their own space if desired. There is a large wood deck at the front of the house.

The large dining kitchen features a gorgeous custom-made dining table created by a local craftsman and designer light fixtures. The adjoining fully fitted modern kitchen allows guests to mingle while cooking and dining. The kitchen has a full set of appliances, including an induction cooker, oven, dishwasher and a huge fridge/freezer. There are also a wide range of smaller electrical appliances such as a rice cooker, a coffee maker, a kettle and a toaster. The dining area opens on to a second large deck on the east side of the house — perfect for enjoying the morning sun.

BEDROOMS

The villa features four bedroom, all with private ensuite bathrooms. Two bedrooms are located on the lower level and two on the upper level. The bedrooms all come with super-comfortable king-sized beds that can be split into two single beds if required, allowing flexibility for couples and single guests alike.

BATHROOMS

The four bedrooms each have private en-suite bathrooms which are tastefully tiled and equipped with washlet toilets. In addition, the villa has a large communal bathroom with a deep tub large enough to fit 2-3 people and offering views of the surrounding forest.

OUTDOOR FACILITIES

There are two large wood decks, one accessed from the lounge at the front of the house and the other from the dining/kitchen on the east side. There is garden furniture including outdoor sofas, a dining table and chairs and a BBQ — perfect for outdoor dining in warmer seasons. The surrounding forested garden offers complete seclusion on the east and south sides.
