Netflix Showcases Niseko's Cuisine in New Global Travel Show - "The World’s Most Amazing Vacation Rentals"
A new Netflix travel show featuring Niseko premiered to its audience of 200 million subscribers around the world this week.
The hosts and film crew of The World’s Most Amazing Vacation Rentals stayed at 5-bedroom luxury chalet Seasons Niseko in Annupuri last winter.
The theme of the episode featuring Niseko was “Gourmet Stays” and introduced Niseko as a gourmet food destination.
The hosts of the show enjoyed some of Niseko’s exquisite local produce prepared by Seasons’ in-house chef before they ventured out for soba noodles and kaiseki dinner at nearby Michelin-commended restaurant Rakuichi Soba.
Netflix producers were introduced and encouraged to visit the resort by Niseko magazine and website Powderlife.
Powderlife Magazine Editor Kristian Lund said this was an unprecedented opportunity to introduce Niseko to a worldwide audience, especially the North American market which is just learning about the world-class skiing on Japan’s northern island.
The show will be streamed onto TVs, tablets and cellphones of over 200 million subscribers worldwide.
As well as its powder snow, Niseko is famous for its fresh produce and vibrant restaurant scene which this show focussed on.
