“Stay at Suizenji, your 'second home,' as if you were living there” This space was created by an owner who loves the local area of Kumamoto and wants guests who come from afar to experience the 'everyday life' of Kumamoto. This isn't just a place to stay. This is a place to enjoy life. A 3-minute walk from JR Shinsuizenji Station. In the quiet Suizenji area, beloved by local residents, We have a two-bedroom unit available on the first floor. Right next door is a sun-drenched park. Next to it is a 24-hour supermarket. On sunny days, I enjoy a picnic in the park, just a 30-second walk away, with dishes prepared in my island kitchen. Even though I'm on a trip, it feels like a slice of “everyday life.” You can walk to Suizenji Park, and it takes about 10 minutes by tram or 5 minutes by car (if there is no traffic) to get to Kumamoto's downtown area. With free parking, Wi-Fi, and a work space, it's perfect for both sightseeing and workation. The bathroom has a dryer, so you can stay for a long time without any worries. All the facilities and fixtures were new.One year has passed since it opened in February 2025. From the moment you unload your luggage, this place will become “your home”—enjoy a stay like that.

15 minutes from Aso-Kumamoto Airport / Mountain hideaway / Entire building for rent / Over 120 m², 3 bedrooms, 1 dining room, 1 kitchen / Functional layout
MACOMO is named after "Makomo (true bamboo)". It is a plant of the Poaceae family that grows in colonies along the water's edge and is also called "Makomodake". Because it has a purifying effect on soil and water, it has been called "the grass where the gods dwell" and "the grass of fate" since ancient times, and is considered a sacred plant. It is used as a mat (mushiro) and a tool for purification in Shinto rituals such as at Izumo Taisha Shrine. We hope you have a pleasant trip to this inn. When you pass through the tunnel of autumn leaves (maple), the inn surrounded by trees appears, and the surroundings are very quiet. It is an area where birds (woodpeckers, cuckoos, thrushes, etc.) and animals (flying foxes, foxes, deer, hares, etc.) coexist and thrive. Please forget your daily worries and relax so that the birds are not startled. The tap water at Macomo comes from the beautiful water source of Shioi Shrine. The water is so popular that locals come to draw it, and you can use it safely for cooking and bathing, as well as drinking. Feel the abundance of nature! Once you arrive, refresh yourself with a walk in the woods or dinner using water from Shioi Shrine. Have a nice stay!
