FAQS & POLICIES

Reservations

We like to make your reservation process as seamless as possible. Make sure to book your reservation 48 hours prior to your arrival at Madarao/Myoko area, or 5 days in advance for rental delivery to other ski areas in Japan. Guests at La Colina Retreat can book at any time as long as equipment is available.
A minimum of two days rental is required for rental delivery service.

To rent from us, you must:

  • Provide valid identification (passport, Japanese driver’s license, or My Number card).
  • Use a credit card in the same name as the identification provided.

Payment policy

We require a credit card payment to hold your reservation. You can make any adjustments or additions throughout the reservation period, prior to 5 days before receiving the gear.

What happens if the equipment is damaged during my rental?

We expect a reasonable amount of wear and tear while using our gear – it lets us know you’ve been getting after it! Damage to equipment that requires labor or repair beyond a standard tune and wax will be charged. If you’re planning on pushing your limits or skiing or riding hard, we highly recommend securing insurance.

Why don’t you rent boots?

Boots are very personal and we recommend bringing your own to make the best of your experience. If you need boots contact us and we will introduce you to any of our preferred partners in your area.

Can I return my equipment early?

You must notify us ASAP if you wish to return your equipment before your pre-arranged return date. Equipment must be returned by 6:00 p.m. the evening prior to your requested refund date in order to be eligible for a refund for the following day. Same-day refund requests are not available. We do not offer refunds for unused days within your rental period.
For ski rental delivery, early returns do not qualify for refunds or reductions in rental fees.

Cancellation policy

You can cancel your reservation up to 10 days prior to your scheduled delivery at NO CHARGE. If you cancel within the 10-day window, you will be subjected to a 50% cancellation fee. One day before or on the start date, a 100% cancellation fee applies, plus applicable delivery fees if the equipment has been shipped already. That said, we know winter travel can be unpredictable. That’s why reservations can be rescheduled without charge.

Check our Rental Terms for more information.

Do you wax and tune your equipment?

All our skis and boards are waxed with 100% plant-based mountainFLOW eco-wax and tuned as they returns to suit the prevailing conditions.
