Had an incredible stay at The Maples Niseko with my family. This apartment-like resort deserves all the praise:
1. Perfect location, just a few minutes' walk to the base of Hirafu, where we had our ski lessons. The street is lined with plenty of restaurants and shops.
2. The resort staff are exceptionally friendly and helpful. Special shoutout to Kayne, Brendon, and others who went above and beyond, offering food recommendations and even helping with carrying our skis to the lockers.
3. The collaboration with Rhythm Ski Gear rental is fantastic. The pick-up and drop-off service for ski equipment rental made our experience even more convenient.
4. The rooms are nothing short of amazing – beautiful, spacious, and fully equipped with household amenities like a personal washing machine with dryer and kitchen facilities. It truly felt like a home away from home.
5. Even on our departure day, the resort exceeded our expectations by sending us to the train station when the taxi company was fully booked.
The Maples is hands down one of the best vacation accommodations we've experienced. Highly recommended, and we'll definitely be back on our next visit to Niseko!
