This is a special deal only offered to US military (and friends) located here in Japan. Anyone spent New Years at Hakuba before. Im so stoked! Link to post Share on other sites

I have seen deals from Japanese Travel Agencies for 25000yen that have the same features (3 of everthing) Dont know if the quality is the same for the accomadation or meals, but the price is mighty fine. Last season I saw deals for 19000yen (for 2 of everything) in Hakuba Link to post Share on other sites
likesDaPow 0 Posted November 28, 2006 Author Share Posted November 28, 2006 I thought it was a steal. I jumped all over it Anyone else going to be in Hakuba 30-1 this year. So far all the other people I know that are going are beginers so I will be exploring by myself. Maybe Im selfish but I hate waiting for slower people. I always feel like Im missing out.

skidaisuki 0 Posted November 28, 2006 Share Posted November 28, 2006 Yep - that's cheap, the downside is that you have to be in the US forces to get it...only joking.... Link to post Share on other sites

NoFakie 45 Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 Villa Hakuba is not a dorm!? It's hotel right on the slopes at Sakka. It's quite popular with overseas folk because its ski-in ski-out. People with kids sometimes insist on that. For New Year, that's a great deal. New Year should be when hotels make their money, but I can't see much of a margin at those prices. Link to post Share on other sites
