    It's kind of in the middle of nowhere, the bus comes here few times a day. But that's what you get for such a peaceful location.

    The view is amazing. Staff is very caring, restaurant is nice. Bathroom and makeup room are great! I recommend the tent (Kumo)

    Stunning location, beautiful views of the sea from my room. Staff were so lovely and helpful. Breakfast was tasty, as was the lasagne that they serve for dinner. Everything was very clean. Mount Ouijigatame Thank you!!

    Quality accommodation off the typical tourist Japan route

    Not dislikes, but things to be aware of. If using public transport, the buses serving the accommodation are very infrequent. There is a vending machine a few minutes walk away, but I didn’t find a shop so consider bringing supplies. I found the hours to access the bath a little confusing, so never actually used it in the end which was a shame.

    It is a very beautiful space to spend time. I was in the wooden hut with the big window, and it was a gorgeous place to relax and reset. The bed was comfortable. Plenty of space. Lots of natural light. Incredible sea view. Staff were super helpful. I had the best coffee in my 3 weeks in Japan here. Enjoyed dinner one night which was a good quality. I used it as a base to visit Naoshima. It works, but the connections for bus and boat can be infrequent so it ended up being a long day. For me it was nice to experience quality accommodation with character and attention to detail, a little off the normal traveller route in Japan.

    They had a shared bathroom with one bathtub that we have to share with other people. There's no set time that you can take a bath. Sometimes it's difficult to figure out the timing when you can use the bathroom.

    This place is located away from any major cities and towns. Very quiet and calm. I stayed in an ocean view Japanese style room. It was spacious for a single traveler and loved that they had a space to sit looking outside of the window.

    Perfect getaway by the sea

    Might be hard to access via public transport as buses aren't always very frequent but you can usually trust google maps.

    Perfect place for a getaway from the busier locations in Japan. Location has a beautiful view of the sunset (especially the Fune room). A great spot if you plan to visit attractions in areas like Naoshima and Shikoku, or if you want some peace and quiet in nature as it has good hikes and beaches nearby. Staff were great to talk to. They super friendly and helpful throughout the stay!

    Such a gem!

    The place is such a gem! First of all you wake up every day with a stunning view of the Seto Inner Sea. What’s more - everything is clean, towels are fluffy, air conditioning working tirelessly, sauna with cold bath if you want, and amazing food in the restaurant. If you mention any allergies or food restrictions, the cook will go above and beyond to make you something special that is not even on the menu. But it would not be possible without the host that not only speaks perfectly in english but is very thoughtful and caring, seems really interested in your experience, finds you transportation, recommends places to visit and makes you feel welcomed and taken care of, and that is a skill not easy to find. It was our second trip to Japan, we have been traveling for a few weeks both times and that was easily our favorite place. We’ve felt safe and there was not even one spider, and that is a quality in itself in that region. 10 out of 10.

    It was a little out of the way but that also added to the appeal. I would have liked to stay longer than one night to use the sauna and deck area. It would have been good to have breakfast included but understand it is a small place.

    The staff were super friendly, it was stylish and understated. I really appreciated the little touches, tea and sweets in the room, allowing visitors to try the denim, delicious lasagne and lots of other small touches.

    Room was clean, pretty and has a super nice view! Even though I was traveling solo, I felt comfortable as the staff were friendly and took care of me well. There's also a bus stop right outside the hotel.

    None sheltered parking lot which required to walk up a short 5mins hill. Not easy to deal with when raining. One shared bathroom only. Can be a long wait sometimes.

    Great sea view. Big bath tub.

    Shared Slippers was meh. toilet in a room with minimum sink was little inconvenient. As a hostel it’s good enough but because the room was like ryokan somehow ended expected more. Staff’s intro was little confusing so we were embarrassed when we were told that we can rent clothes for the day ended up returning some clothes we picked up for ourselves. Food selection at cafe was minimum, little more veggies would have been nice to have. Wine/drink selection was also minimum. It would have been nice if they had more selection.

    Ocean View, spacious room, shared bathroom (big bath tub), complimentary tea quality.
