Forbes identified One Happo as one of the most luxurious chalets in Asia and we wholeheartedly agree. This jaw-dropping luxurious James Bond Fantasy chalet made real offers seemingly every amenity imaginable. After entering the home and passing a large dry room for your gear, you walk into an Olympic sized gym equipped with a sauna and onsen bath all with floor to ceiling glass windows offering amazing mountain views. The second story boasts five bedrooms, two king bedrooms with hot tubs and again, incredible views of the Happo slopes. The third floor is the common space with a state of the art kitchen, a walk in wine room, a dinning and living space, and an infra-red heated balcony overlooking the mountain.
Insider Tip: There is a trail that leads from One Happo to the street leading up to the Happo Gonodola. This makes the walk to the gondola five minutes, but be careful as you walk down the snowy path.
