A FIRST TRACKS INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITY
Furano, long since established as Hokkaido’s foremost Summer destination is the perfect setting for investors seeking strong returns based upon year round occupancy along with access to the very best of Hokkaido lifestyle. The Vale Furano will build on the simple yet successful model that the Vale introduced to Niseko, stunning Ski in - Ski out apartments enhanced with a suite of facilities and services to ensure comfort and convenience “in-house” and year round.

Niseko has certainly caught the attention of the International ski market in recent years and whilst growing, it will be some years until it enjoys an equivalent level of summer tourism to the well established Furano market which has been developed over the last 20 years. Furano by way of contrast, enjoys an accommodation crisis during the Lavender viewing peaks of Summer when demand simply outstrips supply. Furano, long since established as Hokkaido’s foremost Summer destination is the perfect setting for investors seeking strong returns based upon year round occupancy along with access to the very best of Hokkaido lifestyle.

Currently, the controlling factor on that Furano Winter interest as was the case in Niseko back in 2002, is the sheer lack of accommodation suitable for the well-heeled International visitor. Situated in the best site possible next to the Gondola, The Vale Furano will fill that niche and in turn provide investors with many years of great holidays and an investment opportunity limited to the few who are early enough for ‘First Tracks’.
