Time with Mt. Fuji

Mt. Fuji can be enjoyed from the living area, bathroom, and bedroom.

From the soft light of morning to sunset and the changing expressions of each season, the mountain becomes part of your stay.

A Minimal Space Surrounded by Japanese Wood

The interior is crafted with Japanese woods and rare solid timber slabs, preserving the natural fragrance, texture, grain, and character of each piece.

Every knot, grain, and subtle variation in color is left to speak for itself, creating a quiet space shaped by the beauty of the materials themselves.

Woods That Have Lived Through Centuries of Japanese Seasons

Each piece retains its own strength and delicacy, grain and color, carefully shaped by skilled craftspeople while preserving the individuality of the wood.

Take time to appreciate the expressions formed over generations and the warmth and texture that can only be felt through natural solid wood.

The kitchen is crafted from oak grown in Hokkaido, inviting you to prepare ingredients discovered at local markets and shops.

A Home for Happiness: The Design of「舎」Echoing Mt. Fuji’s Slopes

“MUKU” means solid, natural wood. “ten” evokes both “above the heavens” and “upon a wooden board.”

The character「舎」, pronounced “sha,” means a dwelling. For us, it represents a home where good fortune resides, its silhouette inspiring an auspicious design.

The pitch of the gabled roof echoes the slopes of Mount Fuji, creating a space reminiscent of the character「舎」.

Surrounded by rare Japanese woods, discover the thoughtful design and skilled craftsmanship that bring the architect’s vision to life—a welcoming retreat where good fortune feels at home.

With the opening of HANARE, our existing accommodation will be introduced as OMOYA | Main Lounge Villa. Combining a private lounge with guest rooms, OMOYA continues to offer an exclusive stay for just one group per day, with generous spaces designed for unhurried moments.

The newly created HANARE | Private Villa offers a more intimate and tranquil experience. Compact, private, and reserved for one group at a time, it is designed for those who wish to spend their stay in complete calm.

Two villas, each with its own character, offering two distinct ways to experience time at the foot of Mt. Fuji.
