Tomamu Hoshino Resort - Amazing kids activities and mountain terrace!

Here are my top recommendations for Tomamu Hoshino Resort!

Tomamu is on the east side of Sapporo (opposite of Niseko), so it is a great resort to visit if you wish to go to a different part of Hokkaido.

Tomamu is very family friendly, with extensive services for children and activities.

Two unique highlights of Tomamu is the spectacular view from the mountain terrace and the huge indoor heated pool which is especially designed for families.
