[2025 Akaigawa Hotels] Travel Guide for Club Med Kiroro Grand (Updated Jul)

⛷️ For adults who love skiing and are traveling with kids, there's no easier option than Club Med. Simply entrust your kids to the childcare services and enjoy carefree skiing! 😊 With free ski lessons 🏂🏻, exclusive ski lounges 🎿, five meals a day 🍣, post-ski hot springs ♨️, and a packed schedule of Club Med entertainment activities, it's both a ski trip and a vacation. Adults can relax while kids burn off their energy 🔋. Today marks the official opening of early bird bookings for the 2026 season at Hokkaido's four ski resorts. As many know, accommodation prices during the ski season in Hokkaido can be high and hard to secure 🥲. Booking a year in advance is the most cost-effective option, especially for those planning to ski during Christmas, New Year, or Spring Festival holidays. Early bookings can save you up to 35% compared to peak season prices‼️ Club Med has four ski resorts in Hokkaido: ⭐ Hoshino Tomamu: The largest of the four resorts, offering the most ski trails and a wide variety of activities beyond skiing. ⭐ Kiroro: Known as the "Powder Snow God" of Hokkaido ❄️, it boasts the highest snowfall in the region, allowing skiing for up to 160 days, even into spring. While the snow quality is excellent, additional facilities are limited, making Kiroro ideal for those focused solely on skiing. ⭐ Grand: Suitable for all ages, featuring more rooms and natural hot springs. ⭐ Peak: Exclusively for guests aged 12 and above. Located close to Grand, both resorts offer ski-in/ski-out accommodations. ⭐ Sahoro: Although the furthest away and with fewer ski trails, it has significant advantages. The resort is nestled in the mountains of Hokkaido, surrounded by national park-level scenic forests ⛰️, offering a private and tranquil setting away from crowds. With fewer visitors, you can ski from morning till evening, almost like having the slopes to yourself. Its 22 trails cater to all skill levels ❄️, and separate ski areas for adults and kids ensure a safe and family-friendly experience 👨👩👦. Sahoro also boasts a unique advantage: a 70% sunny day rate throughout the ski season 🌞. Apart from Sahoro, the other three resorts are all roughly equidistant from New Chitose Airport.

It is an all-inclusive resort hotel located all over the world. There are three in Hokkaido. Kiroro Grand opened recently. It was a short stay of two nights, but I was satisfied. Food, drinks, shows, activities, etc. are all included, so you can enjoy it without hesitation. In the summer, you can enjoy tennis, golf, park golf, basketball, badminton, pool, hot springs, billiards, darts, ping pong, yoga, trekking, biking, etc., and in the winter, skiing. It is close to Otaru and Sapporo, so it is recommended as there is little travel!

Expensive but great experience at the new Club Med Kiroro Grand. Loved the bracelet system which also act as the room key. My 9 yrs old daughter happily explore the entire facility with her new found friends before returning to her room on own. Only caution - the onsen, swimming pool and gym/sport facilities is in the next building, so be warned about braving the cold when going over.
