Sahoro Hokkaido Japan

We have stayed in all clubmed properties in Hokkaido that welcome kids and I have to say Sahoro is now my favorite!
Not only we still have amazing powder snow at the end of March and even first week of April, it's a more compact design where we don't have to walk so much like in Tomamu just from the room to the ski locker or restaurant. It's also a true ski in and out compared to Kiroro Grand where it's impossible for snowboarder to make it back to hotel without taking the gondola
However what impressed us most is the attentive service!
We especially thanks Tona for making arrangements for our meals and the nice setting for my husband birthday. Yang was also very helpful in getting us drink. The pettie club staff line fristy and sissy and Aldy are all very wonder and got on so with my kid.

My snowboard instructor Migual was also fantastic I enjoyed the tree runs a lot!

We also enjoyed the shows every nights all GOs have so much energy and dedicated to their performance !

Overall sahoro is definitely a hidden gem despite its the oldest clubemd but it's also a very cozy one with phenomenal service which makes it stand out from the other two properties. We will come back for more powder!

Excellent family experience with skiing and full-day activities for kids and quality adult ski lessons. The staff are super-friendly and keep kids occupied with shows and events until ~9-10pm if you want.

For adults, I skied with Diego in Club 4 who has lots of great technical advice for intermediate skiers. Try to keep up…!

Fantastic experience. Family has a wonderful time. Love the energy of all the staff. Logan and his team made it one of our most memorable holiday. We had great ski instructors - Craig, Dodo, Edu Diego.
Dogan F&B manager was wonderful. Especially Owen who was so attentive to all our needs

The Giant Slalom or GS Race is the signature of Club Med Sahoro Hokkaido.
Club Med Sahoro is the only Club Med in the world that offers GS races that are officially timed, and complete with a medal ceremony presentation in the same evening.
For some reason, no GS Race was conducted during the 2024/25 season.
But when Aina, the ski director of Club Med Sahoro and Stefan, the assistant ski director learned that I am very passionate about the GS race, they organised a GS race within 36 hours!

The logistic involved, especially when setting the first GS Race of the season, is laborious and humongous. The racing gates have to be moved from the storage facility to the designated racing slope. The Club Med ski team needs to meticulously set up the racing gates within the skiers' ability.

The impromptu race went remarkably well in the morning. There were about 25 racers out of 40+ eligible participants. Only those in the Class of level 4 to level 6 are permitted to race.
The medal ceremony in the evening was well presented even at such short notice and preparation. About 2/3 of the racers, both skiers and snowboarders, managed to finish within the medal category.

This visit was my 10th trip to Club Med Sahoro. I first put on my skis there in 2001. I have since risen from a level 1 skier to level 5 over the 20+ years. I have participated in 5 races over my last 5 visits to Club Med Sahoro. In my first GS race back in 2015, I was overjoyed after I won my first bronze medal. I went on to win another bronze medal in the following season, followed by 3 more silver medals to date as my skiing ability improved.

It was an honour indeed for me to participate in the one and only Trident GS race of the season which was organised upon my request.

Many thanks to the Club Med Sahoro Hokkaido ski team!

First of all, what a wonderful club med, food is great, the rooms and hotel is really clean for a Ski in Ski out. After discussing with a few of the GO’s, you quickly understand how lucky everyone is to have Logan has CDV. The man gave me and my 4 friends such a warm welcome, always happy to help whatever your situation is and quick to find solutions. However, Logan itself will keep saying how lucky he is to have such a wonderful GO team. He was not wrong. The ski/snowboard instructor team was wonderful. If you’re doubting what level you should sign up in, asking Alex V. at the ski instructor counter is always ready to help!
We were lucky to be part of group 6 with wonderful instructors. Big shout out to Aly, Edu, Luca, Miguel, Figo, Stefano but most importantly Manu!!
If you ever get any of these instructors, YOU ARE BLESSED!
I could go on and on, on any of these people, they are truly amazing, passionate, smart and amazing teachers. Always willing to give you advice or simply show you their personal “hidden spots”. I have so much positive things to say on all of these peoples, it would be easier for you to simply experience a day with them!
These wonderful people most definitely made this a wonderful experience!
Desempeño Increíble!
