川辺の一軒宿 Togu tsubakiyama

We have set checkout for 2 PM so that you can enjoy a relaxing stay. Located on a stone embankment where two rivers converge, this renovated traditional Japanese house is surrounded by trees and is a private room-only accommodation. There are no buildings in sight, and you can enjoy the sound of the river, the sound of birds, and a sense of unity with nature. The water is spring water (water quality has been inspected). Depending on the season, people come to the river next to the inn to play in the river or to go to the Kappa Falls. If the weather is nice, you can enjoy playing in the river, as well as a BBQ or a campfire (depending on the season and weather, we may ask you to refrain from these activities) using the food you bring. (Please be careful when handling fire.) Please rest assured that cooking utensils, a microwave, and tableware are also provided. If you walk upstream along the riverside path, you will find the Kappa Falls about 150 metres ahead. Please ensure you have food and drinks, such as dinner, prepared before check-in.(It takes about 20 minutes by car to the supermarket) The last 400 metres to the accommodation are narrow and difficult to navigate, Once you arrive at "Camu Tsubaki Mountain", we will be happy to show you around.

『Slow&Cozy resort on the hill』 Phoenix inn

A private inn quietly standing on a hill overlooking the Pacific Ocean The room is 70 square meters in size, and from the large windows you can see the symbolic Phoenix tree and the trees and flora and fauna of the Pacific Ocean, and in the open panorama, the sound of wild birds and the rising sun in the morning, and the sky turns scarlet at dusk when the sun sets... At night, the sound of insects mixed with the roar of the tide is the natural rhythm of this place. The "Moonrise" that shines when the moon is full shines over the sea I think you can feel "a reward for yourself" and "the preciousness of nature" while looking at the moon path and the starry sky. The owner himself designed the house where he lived for many years, and with the help of craftsmen, he has just completed a full renovation [completed R7/September] using natural materials. He created this place with the idea of a place to weave together memories and stories of family, friends, and lovers, away from everyday life on the hill. There is a small beach right down the hill where you can enjoy fishing and swimming. There are also great places for marine sports, golf, touring, and cycling in the surrounding area.

Beachfront Traditional Japanese House – IBII STAYⅡ

Wake to the sound of waves, and dive into the sea. Fall asleep to that same sound each night. This coastline is Japan's "nangoku" — sunny, palm-lined, and warmed by the Kuroshio Current. Surf, walk the shore, or simply breathe in the sea air, and watch the sun rise over a quiet fishing village at dawn. The house is a little old, with limited air conditioning and the occasional insect — but cozy under the kotatsu in winter, cooled by sea breezes in summer. An undiscovered side of Japan awaits.

Private Beach House. Panoramic Deck Views 110sqm

The house was built in 2005 but the first floor was partially renovated in October 2024. There is an outside deck that has panoramic ocean views. Bedding is one queen, one double and two single beds. There is also a futon mattress if needed (not super comfy). The house is in a residential area so refrain from making loud noise especially after dark. Being surrounded by nature near the ocean, you may occasionally encounter seasonal insects outdoors, particularly around lights at night.
