Tahi Chalet – 4-Bedroom Modern Luxury Retreat in Rusutsu

Designed by OM Studio and built in 2019 using the modern Lindal Elements system, Tahi Chalet (meaning “together” in Māori) offers the perfect blend of alpine elegance and practical design. Nestled in a private forest setting yet minutes from the heart of Rusutsu Resort, this spacious chalet has become a popular rental for ski holidaymakers and year-round visitors alike.

Set across two levels, the home features four ensuite bedrooms plus a versatile multipurpose room that can serve as an extra bedroom, media room, or study. Upstairs, the open-plan living, dining, and kitchen area is framed by dramatic floor-to-ceiling double-pane glass windows, flooding the space with natural light and forest views. Beautiful exposed wooden beams and high ceilings add true alpine character, while a cozy gas fireplace brings warmth and atmosphere with easy maintenance.

The large kitchen is thoughtfully equipped with a gas stove (perfect for cooking enthusiasts), oven, microwave, and dishwasher—ideal for hosting family or groups of friends. The dining area easily seats 10 guests, complemented by a long counter that works beautifully as a breakfast bar or cocktail spot for another 10.

Downstairs, a spacious dry room doubles as a laundry area and is directly connected to a generous double garage—allowing residents and guests to come and go easily with quick access to ski gear and outdoor equipment.
