Niseko Alpine Developments [Nisade] has almost sold out of its private onsen apartments in The Vale Niseko.

Apartment 201
The rare 01 series apartments boast Niseko’s best ski run view. Almost sitting on the ski run, Apartment 201 is one of only five apartments in the whole of Asia with such premium ‘beachfront’ views.

Skiing in Niseko is all about the powder, the exquisite local cuisine and the post ski onsens. North America has its buffalo wings and Jacuzzi’s, Europe its Schnapps, and Niseko its onsens.

The Niseko onsen is a bathing experience like no other. Like a Jacuzzi, but 100% natural. Drilling over 300m into the water table under Japan’s volcanic mountain range, these thermal waters are said to have healing and relaxing properties. The natrium rich waters are naturally heated from deep underground making an unequaled après ski experience.

UPDATE 17 MAR 2010: This apartment is now SOLD.

The Vale Niseko hosts Niseko’s best après ski experience.

Every Sunday at 3:30pm the Taiko drummers will be out on the après terrace complete with a BBQ by the Vale Bar & Grill, outdoor fires and selection of Japanese beers.

Come get your Niseko post powder kick on!

Five sales in two days.

Just recently relaunched, the ski in ski out properties in The Vale Niseko are selling quickly. We are seeing interest from both overseas and in-house guests who have stayed and bought on the spot.

Nisade views this buyer splurge as confirmation of the rarity of quality, luxury, ski in ski out properties in Asia. Buyers are purchasing not only because of location but also due to amenity. The Vale’s outdoor heated pool (only one in Niseko), private onsens, international restaurant, chic lobby and apres ski terrace have been a driver in reason to purchase over other typical Niseko apartments and houses.

With Chinese New Year fast approaching, buyers have a limited time to get in before they sell out.

NISADE Chairman Jonathan Martin enjoys the moment at the opening ceremony three weeks ago.

NISADE President Kal Bragg, thanks sincerely the construction partners whose have shown committment to the project throughout and placed their confidence in NISADE that we could deliver on our objectives.

Jonathan Martin bows respectfully to Shibata San, the former owner of Snow Universe, the ski-in ski-out onsen hotel which stood on the spot of The Vale Niseko being been demolished just 18 months ago to make way for NISADE’s masterplan project. Several timbers were rescued from the old hotel and have been used to make the reception desk and onsen door - much to the surprise and delight of Shibata San.

Several Shacho (CEOs) of our partner firms smash open an enormous sake barrel to start the evenings festivities.

Sake to glasses for all the 140plus invitees in attentendance.

Amongst many flowers in water we received from members of the local business community (as is custom in Japan when a new business opens in an area) we received some flowers in ice, which still grace our ain entrance today.

Jonathan and Kal blessing the completed building with local Shinto priest, Project Architects Hokkaido Nikken Sekkei and Builder Nakayama Gumi.

The crowd were wowed by a very unique tribal dance from an authentic Ainu tribe. The Ainu are the indiginous tribe of Hokkaido, and feature in much of the comissioned artwork through the building. We were honored to have the tribes chief come with his tribe and partake in our opening cermemony.

The partying truly began after a powerful 12 person Japanese Taiko drumming performance accompanied by an exciting fire spinning performance. After property tours of stunning condominiums upstairs, an open bar and three course meal at the polished and professional Vale Bar & Grill (VBG) went down a treat with all.

NISADE staff at the party, proudly wearing their uniforms, excited about welcoming out guests to Niseko this winter!

Niseko’s new ski-in ski-out property The Vale Niseko is less than 2 weeks from its grand opening. NISADE Chairman Jonathan Martin takes you inside the designer lobby and bar area to show you present the final project update on the construction of our flagship Niseko development.
