Who should stay here
Blue Bird Apartments are great for groups looking for self-contained accommodation at Hakuba village and Happo-One ski resort.
Location
The Blue Bird Apartments are located just out of Hakuba village centre with great views of Happo-One ski resort. Although you cannot walk to the slopes you are situated just 150m from the closest shuttle stop. This can take you to any of the 11 local ski areas. The owners are happy to arrange pick-ups and drop-offs for arrival and departure and can organise supermarket trips so you can buy provisions. It is an easy 5-10 minute walk to the main part of the village.

About Hakuba
The Hakuba Valley is one of Japan's most popular ski destinations for Westerners. Made up of 10 ski resorts, including the most well-known Happo One, Cortina, Iwatake, Goryu, and Hakuba 47, there are plenty of options for skiers and snowboarders of all ability levels. Whether you're a powderhound in search of some epic pow turns, or just looking for some mellow cuisey groomers, you're sure to fall in love with the Hakuba region. Happo (the main village) and the surrounding districts of Wadano and Echoland have everything you need for your ski holiday, including international snowsports schools, rentals, guiding options, convenience stores, and countless restaurants and bars. The area is particularly Westernised to cater for the international skier, however, you can still experience glimpses of Japanese culture via local restaurants, onsens, and day tours. Close to Tokyo, Nagano and other ski resorts in the region, Hakuba is a perfect option for first time families, couples, and those who enjoy the Western comforts of home.
