By now, it's an almost unanimously agreed statement that Niseko is the premier home of luxury alpine life in Japan and possibly all of Asia. The area, located on Hokkaido's western side, Japan's northernmost and snowiest island, is home to powder-soft snow, long winter seasons, incredible skiing and snowboarding trails, and world-class hospitality.

Panorama Niseko is one excellent example of Niseko's luxury ski life. It's a collection of 12 artfully built and meticulously designed villas and townhouses, surrounded by some of Hokkaido's most beautiful natural landscapes.
