A Cozy Mountain Retreat
with Coffee and Picture Books
GUESTHOUSE HO ALOHA
4SEASONS

“Ho Aloha” is a Hawaiian phrase that means “dear friend.”


We chose this name with the heartfelt wish that you will visit us with someone special
—or simply come to spend precious time with your truest self.
We added “4SEASONS” to reflect our deep love for Kurumayama Kogen in Nagano,
where we live surrounded by nature’s ever-changing beauty.

At 1,600 meters above sea level, we are reminded daily of the power and grace of the natural world, and we hope you’ll pause here to truly feel each season.
The colorful interiors and carefully curated furnishings are treasures gathered by the owner from travels around the world.

We hope they spark joy and a sense of adventure
—as if you were on a countryside homestay somewhere far away.
Whether you’re relaxing with a picture book and a cup of coffee,
enjoying an impromptu concert with your favorite instrument, savoring a quiet moment with wine, or reconnecting with the rhythm of nature,
HO ALOHA is a place where borders fade, and hearts connect.
We hope you’ll feel at home enough to say,
“I’m back,” “Welcome home,” and “I can’t wait to come again.”
