Stayed at Kinta, which was lovely and the host was very warm and accommodating. A bit of a walk to the closet lift, (harder at the end of the day).
The snow was great. We had big snow falls while we were there. Great to be in very Japanese resort. The gondola rise to the neighbouring resort was fantastic. We saw monkeys and other wildlife.
We were pleased that we were not at The Prince!
Kinta: the food was excellent and Kinta helped us to arrange dinners out on some of the nights.
If you want to get a discount of lift passes from Kinta, you need cash!
The gear that we hired from Kinta was not so good. T
Would recommend!

Kinta is amazing. We have been twice and both types were fantastic. Great snow, lodge is easy walk to slopes, room is spacious with views, spotless and beautifully furnished. Owners are delightful and do everything they can to help you and make you feel at home. The food they serve up is sensational -4 course meals which were delicious. Lovely indoor/ outdoor onsen overlooking the slopes. This is a high quality lodge and is a very relaxing and enjoyable place to stay. I would recommend it to anyone and both times we went we were so impressed with everything. Loved it!

My friends and I have just returned from our Japanese ski holiday and I just wanted to let you know that we had an amazing time and also wanted to thank you for all the organisation you did for us before hand. Our stays at all of the lodges were fantastic. We were overly impressed by the hospitality, the accommodation and helpfulness of Kinta san at Kinta Naeba and the food they cooked for the evening meals was also amazing. Thanks again for everything you did to help us have a relaxing holiday.
