Hoshinoya Fuji

Hoshinoya Fuji manages to seamlessly deliver Japanese minimalist design in a pristine landscape of fragrant woodland, a clutch of white cabins and raised platforms peeking out from between the trees to look out over Lake Kawaguchi towards mighty Mount Fuji. Upon arrival, you’ll be welcomed by the friendly Glamping Masters, who are at your beck and call to help make your stay everything you wish for. Ask them which hiking routes to take, have them organise a horse riding expedition, or listen as they point out constellations on a star-gazing trek. Between forays into the forest or lake, put your feet up in the Cloud Terrace and cosy up by the wood-burning stove, a cup of steaming tea or coffee in hand and perhaps a s’more or two roasting over the firepit. When it comes to mealtimes, fill up in either the open-air kitchen elegant dining room; for something more intimate, you can also request your meal be delivered to the privacy of your own cabin terrace, with the views stretching out before you for company.
