Starry 8
Welcome to Starry 8, a comfortably appointed Western style chalet nestled in the heart of Echoland—Hakuba’s lively dining and après-ski district. This spacious, three-story retreat offers a blend of alpine charm and modern comfort, making it the perfect choice for families or groups seeking a relaxed yet refined winter escape. With flexible configurations available as either a 3-bedroom or full 5-bedroom home, Starry 8 caters effortlessly to both small groups and larger parties of up to 10 guests.
Set on a quiet, tree-lined street just steps from Echoland’s best restaurants, cafes, shops, and bars, Starry 8 provides unmatched convenience while maintaining a peaceful, private atmosphere. The nearest ski shuttle stop is only a one-minute walk away at the Courtyard Marriott, offering direct access to all of Hakuba Valley’s major ski resorts.
Inside, the chalet welcomes you with warm timber finishes, soft lighting, and an open-plan living space designed for comfort. The main level features a cozy lounge, a fully equipped kitchen, two toilets, and a bathroom with a bathtub—perfect for relaxing after a day on the slopes. The master bedroom offers a plush king bed, while additional rooms include a queen and a semi-double, ideal for groups or families.
On the lower level, you'll find a second lounge area and two more bedrooms—one with a king bed and the other with three singles—making this level ideal for kids or a second family. Guests booking the full house enjoy the flexibility of two separate living spaces across three levels, ideal for both social gatherings and quiet downtime.
Outdoors, a spacious deck surrounded by pine trees invites you to enjoy the crisp mountain air, while indoors, thoughtful amenities like Apple TV, Wi-Fi, a dry room, full laundry facilities, and a dishwasher ensure all the comforts of home. Concierge services, including arrival support, station transfers, and WhatsApp assistance throughout your stay, are available to make your Hakuba holiday seamless and stress-free.
Whether you’re curling up by the fire with friends or setting off to explore the slopes, Starry 8 offers the perfect balance of rustic charm and modern convenience—a true home away from home in one of Japan’s most beloved winter destinations.
