A plethora of activities are on offer at Sahoro Club Med including yoga, stretching classes, a swimming pool, Jacuzzi, and nightly G rated entertainment. There is also a day spa and lots of outdoor activities.
Dining and Bars The meals at Club Med are somewhat multi-cultural and buffet style, so you’ll need to ski or snowboard hard during the day if you want to sample all the food! Western food is available for the kids, and they have a baby corner with food and amenities for babies.
Club Med Sahoro has a couple of bars and most alcoholic beverages are included in the package, so got for it!! There is even a dance floor (!) but keep your expectations for a raging nightlife pretty low. This is a Japan ski resort after all!
Why Stay at the Sahoro Club Med? The Club Med Sahoro is fantastic if you want a holiday where you’ll know how much the total package will cost ($250-$530 per person per night depending on the season), and provides good value if you want to take all the ski lessons and fully utilise the kids’ facilities (and drink lots of grog!).
