All-inclusive ski & snow resorts - Japan

Nestled amid Hokkaido's majestic mountains, Club Med Tomamu offers an All-inclusive retreat perfect for families and friends. Winter sports enthusiasts can carve through pristine powder on 29 diverse slopes, suitable for all skill levels, with expert instructors guiding both novices and seasoned skiers. Beyond skiing, the resort neighbours unique attractions such as Mina Mina Beach, Japan's largest indoor wave pool, and a gorgeously-illuminated Ice Village to explore. Head to Itara restaurant for fresh seafood and international cuisine, or try our speciality: Haku serves premium Japanese beef prepared yakiniku-style, grilled to seared perfection at your table.

The Hidaka Mountains are home to Club Med Sahoro, a gorgeous resort that’s ideal for couples and small families. Lessons are available for skiers of all levels on the 21 uncrowded slopes, and there are exciting off-piste opportunities for adventurers too. Snow trekking, horseback riding, and an outdoor Canadian bath, where you can soak amidst snow-covered landscapes, are just a few of the ways to spend your time away from the slopes. Our skilled Japanese chefs prepare a variety of local delicacies daily, such as delicious sashimi and sushi. The resort's immersive design reflects traditional Ainu culture, with authentic carvings and textiles integrated into a contemporary aesthetic.

Enjoying an incredible 160-day winter season annually, our latest Japanese resort provides ski-in, ski-out access to 23 ski runs for all ability levels. Kiroro Grand, with access to some of the best powder snow in the world (up to 21m coverage on average), is the destination of choice for those seeking extraordinary winter thrills. In our stylish resort, immerse yourself in traditional Japanese wellness with the resort's onsen facilities, including an outdoor Rotenburo bath with a breathtaking view. The four vibrant restaurants each offer something different – we always make time for a sushi night at The Ebisu. Catching the entertainment and buzz of conversation in Yotei Bar is the perfect way to end each day.

For more than just a touch of luxe, it has to be Kiroro Peak, our Exclusive Collection resort in Hokkaido. As well as access to the vast and impressive Kiroro ski domain, experience gorgeous accommodation and unconventional experiences surrounded by the magnificent Japanese mountains. Book in for a glass workshop, ride through frosted forests on horseback, or take an excursion to a local distillery to try fresh sake and craft beer. When you return to the comfort of the resort in the evening, enjoy delicacies and unlimited champagne by the glass from 6pm.

Japan’s ski resorts are famously family-friendly, with numerous beginner slopes, training areas and snow gardens that are ideal for families with kids of all ages. Tomamu, Sahoro and Kiroro Grand resorts all provide childcare and activities for little ones aged 2-17, leaving you free to enjoy the slopes before coming back together to share exciting stories about your day over a tasty family dinner.


If you’re not sure what to look for when booking ski packages with kids in Japan, here are few things that could help your trip run more smoothly.

Club Med G.O.s are trained to provide expert childcare in our well-equipped spaces, with wholesome and engaging activities including crafting, group games, or putting together an impressive performance for an evening show. From the age of 4, kids can enrol in ski lessons led by professional instructors, with a safe practice area in which to learn and improve.


If you have kids of different ages, these childcare facilities – where you can confidently leave younger children to have fun for a few hours – will give you a chance to spend quality time skiing with your older kids, too.

Although Japan is known for its family-friendly credentials, each ski resort is different in terms of its facilities. Look for resorts that have snow gardens, where kids can get comfortable on their skis and practice at their own pace. All our resorts have outstanding facilities for learners; in particular, we love Tomamu for its dedicated zone for first-timers and three easy ‘magic carpet’ ski lifts.

Even if you’re an experienced skier yourself, ski lessons will help your kids build a solid foundation of skills. Taking a few lessons as a family can also be a lot of fun, so look for resorts that have ski schools with group lessons. All Club Med resorts in Japan offer adult group lessons for those aged 12 and over – perfect for bonding with your teenagers.

Beyond the slopes, our resorts have so much to offer families. Choose a ski resort that has additional activities you can enjoy together, such as indoor swimming pools, snow tubing, tobogganing or outdoor playgrounds. Check each resort page for details of what's available. For example, Sahoro resort offers cooking classes and indoor rock climbing, while Tomamu boasts direct access to Mina Mina Beach – Japan’s largest indoor wave pool.
