Family adventures to enjoy every season, again and again.

 

We have a fantastic offer waiting for the T.I.S community.

 
Here is everything you need to know.

An exclusive offer just for T.I.S. (...and your friends)

 
 
Since our opening of Onpoint Madarao back in 2020, we have been extremely fortunate to build beautiful relationships with so many of the T.I.S community. We are now looking to continue to grow with T.I.S into the future and are eager to establish some new friendships.
 
The Mountain and surrounding areas are packed with family-friendly adventures and a weekend might not just be enough to do everything. The mountain itself offers an abundance of hiking trails and mountain activities including; zip-lining, archery, grass skiing, and e-mountain biking, as well as a beautiful lake, kayaking, and a botanical marsh
 
The local surrounding areas are filled with amazing examples of outstanding natural beauty, freshwater lakes, waterfalls, watersports activities, Japanese cultural hotspots, elevated tree parks, and even a beach and aquarium within a 60-minute drive of the hotel. This area has everything covered!

In celebration of our third season on the mountain and our bond with T.I.S we will be offering a number of exclusive deals for the community to save and enjoy over the next coming months.


From July through to October 2022, you can save 15% on all of our accommodation exclusively for T.I.S members and a huge saving of 20% off on a 2-night private hotel group booking.
​
* Hotel private group booking requires a minimum of 14 beds reservation.

​

But what's more fantastic is that you can invite friends and family from outside of the T.I.S community to participate in the offer when booking with T.I.S members.
