Kamakura Living
Fully immersed in peace and privacy at the Kengo Kuma-designed Elevation Estate, Kamakura invites guests to enjoy Niseko’s beauty to the fullest. The chalet is impressive in its proportions alone: with living areas and five bedrooms spread over three floors, each guest gets to have the personal space they need. Likewise, there is plenty of opportunity to come together and relish each other’s company. The large living areas and impeccable kitchens (no, that plural is not a typo) make Kamakura perfect for marking a special occasion – or simply enjoying life to the fullest with all of your favourite people.
Living Room
Positioned on the chalet’s middle floor, the living room is a large and lavish hub that brings the whole group together. This space was made for socialising and to emphasize this, there is no TV to distract from your companions – don’t worry though, as each bedroom has a huge TV. The living room features beautiful white sofas and elegant armchairs, with a sleek fireplace and gorgeous snow-covered views vying for your attention.
Dining Room
The dining area is also incorporated to the chalet’s luminous living room. The dining table is positioned in the centre of the room, framed by glass doors that lead out to the balcony. The dining area is flanked by an impeccably well-equipped show kitchen complete with a well-sized wine cellar, with a further chef’s kitchen tucked to the back. This chalet truly was made for entertaining in style!

Location
Kamakura is located at the prestigious Elevation Estate in Niseko, Japan. Masterminded by Kengo Kuma, Japan’s preeminent architect, this gated community is home to some of the most luxurious chalet’s in Niseko. The chalet offers a peaceful and scenic setting away from the crowds, yet it’s within easy reach of everything Hirafu Village has to offer. The centre of the village is about a 10-minute walk away, or less than five minutes driving. The Hirafu Gondola and the ACE Family Quad Lift are also within a five-minute drive.
Niseko Travel Guide
Niseko has fast emerged as the premiere ski destination in Asia. Known for offering the best powder on the planet, Niseko is made up of four interconnecting ski resorts located at the imposing Mount Annupuri. What was once the stomping ground of powder hounds travelling on a budget has been transformed into an enclave of luxury ski chalets and condos, with vibrant dining and nightlife paired with serene onsen hot springs and endless natural beauty.
