Upper Wadano — a single-level, 196 sqm chalet a three-minute walk from the Sakka lifts at Happo-One. Ski room, fireplace, no stairs.
Sakka Rocks sits in Upper Wadano, the forested pocket at the northern end of
Happo-One. The Sakka lifts are a three-minute walk, and the first thing you
reach is the gentlest beginner terrain on the mountain. Above it, the Sakka
Kitaone quad opens the whole upper mountain, so a mixed-ability group can split
at the bottom and still meet for lunch.
Three bedrooms, one level, no stairs
196 square metres on a single floor. Three bedrooms, each with its own
bathroom, each configured as one king or two singles. Sleeps six. No stairs
matters more than it sounds — with ski gear, small children or a bad knee, a
single-level chalet in deep winter is a different experience.
Built for a ski week, not a night
A dedicated drying room with ski and board storage, so boots are dry by
breakfast rather than damp by Wednesday. Hydronic underfloor heating throughout
with controllers in every room, air conditioning in all rooms including
bedrooms, and a Miele kitchen. Open-plan lounge and dining under high ceilings,
floor-to-ceiling glass onto the forest, and a fireplace. Free parking for two
cars.
Is Sakka Rocks ski-in ski-out?
No — and we'd rather say so here than have you find out in ski boots. Hakuba's
genuine ski-in ski-out properties are a handful of hotels sitting metres from a
lift line, and they trade forest, space and privacy for those metres. Sakka
Rocks gives you a three-minute walk, a quiet forest setting with no through
traffic, and 196 square metres to your group alone.
