About the property

Luxury chalet with sweeping mountain views


Azalea Lodge is a luxury four-bedroom chalet sleeping up to eight guests, with panoramic views across the valley and an easy walk to the village, restaurants and onsens. Sparena, with its onsens, gym and restaurant, is right next door.

Fully renovated in 2025, the lodge combines original exposed timber beams with walnut floors, original artwork and beautifully finished interiors. Underfloor heating, rainfall showers and pellet stoves make it especially comfortable after a day on the mountain.

The house has a spacious dining kitchen and a separate lounge, giving families and groups plenty of room to spread out. The connecting slope to the Karasawa lifts is just 50 metres away, Nagasaka Gondola is around six minutes on foot, and the centre of the village is an easy walk.

Azalea Lodge welcomes guests aged six and over.

Luxury that feels like home.

Guest experiences

“The host was outstanding and made everything smooth. Stunning, impeccably maintained, and furnished with real care. We skied home every single day — clicking off our skis right at the door.”

“Stayed at Azalea Lodge in late Feb and honestly it was one of the best snow stays I’ve ever had. Modern, spacious and super comfortable, but still with that cosy alpine feel. The beds were proper Goldilocks beds. Couldn’t fault it.”

“There are many inns in Nagano and Nozawa. The most calming, beautiful and nostalgic. It was a great place to stay. I want to stay consecutive nights next time.”
