KUUMA Sauna Brand Partners with Little Retreat Depot

In a significant development for sauna enthusiasts, the KUUMA sauna brand, a product of the innovative company the HOUSE, will be installed at the upcoming outdoor complex, Little Retreat Depot. This facility, a collaboration between East Japan Railway Company and JR East Urban Development, is poised to open its doors on November 29, 2025, in Saitama City, just a short walk from Omiya Station.

What is Little Retreat Depot?

Little Retreat Depot, affectionately known as 'Lit Depot,' is designed to be a dual-purpose outdoor space offering relaxation and adventure. Located on the site of the former Omiya Depot, this facility will feature seven different sauna cabins, making it akin to a residential sauna exhibition. Visitors will not only indulge in sauna experiences but also enjoy day camping and barbequing, making it the perfect retreat from bustling city life while remaining easily accessible from urban Omiya. This initiative aims to create an extraordinary outdoor experience tailored for relaxation and recreation.
