If you're looking to escape the hustle and bustle and get back to nature, consider a workation (work + vacation), in beautiful Niseko.
Choose your workation style and our recommendations for accommodation, activities and services.
A workation (work + vacation) is a new style of holiday, where travellers continue to work remotely while enjoying activities and experiences in a destination of their choice. With remote and hybrid work now being more common than ever before, more workers are choosing to take a break from their everyday work location and try somewhere new, while not having to compromise on their professional commitments.
Niseko is a great place to try a workation with a relaxing environment, plenty of self-contained accommodation options to choose from, and different activities for all kinds of travellers.
Niseko is a unique part of Japan, where professionals from all over the world gather to work together in a fast-paced, multicultural and entrepreneurial environment. Workations have become popular in Niseko, with many professionals enjoying the comfortable, self-contained accommodation, close facilities and range of activities to enjoy in their downtime.
Workation stays are available in all 3 of our self-contained properties: The Orchards, Country Resort and Akazora. All stays include a fully-equipped kitchen, linen, towels, Wi-Fi, bathroom facilities and regular cleaning service.
Start your day off right with a hearty breakfast prepared in your kitchen, and take a sip on your morning coffee as you gaze out the window to Mt Yotei. As you sit down to begin your morning Zoom meetings, you can feel comfortable knowing your accommodation has:
Study nooks with desks, comfortable chairs and power outlets
Full kitchens for making coffee and meals throughout the day
Various workspace options based on your habits: try the living area, balcony, bedroom or breakfast bar
After a day of work in your comfortable accommodation or a nearby cafe, you can explore the area by bike or rental car in summer, or take advantage of the convenient shuttle service in Winter. In summer, you can go for a walk through the forest, challenge yourself on a high-ropes course, go for a SUP on the lake, or drop into the local farmer's market to pick up some product for dinner. Keep the kids entertained during the day with EdVenture Kids' Camp, which operates onsite at The Orchards.
In winter, the mountains are calling - get fresh lines in the morning before work, or take advantage of night skiing and ride until dinnertime. There are also plenty of other snowy activities to enjoy like snowshoeing, snowmobiling, tubing and relaxing in the nearby onsens.
Filling up your itinerary is easy when you book your workation accommodation with MnK, as you have our experienced guest services team at your disposal. We can assist you with reserving all the services and activities you need in advance (or while you're in-house) so your trip can be as simple as showing up and getting started!
