This is a great place. Having a car really helps to visit local activities. It is perfect. I love the dog amenities

Not built for tall people. All doorway heights are very low.

Great to stay in a beautiful traditional Japanese house in a residential neighbourhood.

Feedback to the hosts - some spices / condiments in the kitchen would be nice, like soy sauce, salt, oil. If you're staying just one or two nights, you won't buy that stuff but then you can't fry an egg in the am, etc. Thank you so much for your consideration!

Great quiet place to hang with your family when you are biking on Shimanami Kaido. They lend you a nifty little car so you can buy groceries and then BBQ on the small gas grill that you can use. We went during good weather, but it might be a bit cold in the winter.

Everything was perfect except that my little girl forgot her camera on the small staircase between the garden and the house, near the outdoor air conditioning units. I hope the property manager who finds it can send it to us by mail — we’ll cover all the costs.

Great traditional Japanese home in a great location. The home is spacious, very quiet and well equipped. It is in the middle of the Shimanami Kaido Cycling road so it is ideal to explore it. They provide a small car to cover the 300 meters long road to bring your luggage since the road is too narrow. We found it quite fun to drive.

This is the perfect place to stay while visiting the islands on the Shimanami Kaido. It is very comfortable, spacious, clean, and stylish. The house and the surrounding area are very charming.

I'm 1.86m (6'11") and I had to pay attention to not hit doorways and beams.

Stayed there while cycling the Shimanami Kaidou. Very spacious traditional house, with a great backyard for dogs. They even have a grooming table and dog bed for those that bring their pets. There are laundry facilities and a comfortable living room. If you don't bring food, there are a few choices to buy in place (enough for a couple, not for a family).

Splendid house that we stayed during our Shimanami Kaido cycling mini-trip. Nicely renovated; softest futons we’ve ever slept on; having a washer and dryer was a plus, especially mid-cycling adventure. I can only imagine how nice the stay would be for dogs and their humans — there are so many amenities, from backyard to sofa steps!

Restaurants too far away.

The house is very nice renovated, everything was clean and prepared. We only stayed over night but we like it so much we will return for more days, the house is like dream house. Big, has everything, nice bathroom and toilet, the garden is very well made for dogs. We enjoyed every minute. 10/10 without any questions!

All is good!

The location is a little inconvenient as there are few restaurants and convenience stores nearby. The instructions to get to the rental car could have been clearer, although we were able to find it in the end.

Accommodation had a lot of space and was well-stocked with amenities. The beds were extremely comfortable and the attention to detail to decorations was cute. This property also provides a rental car which was greatly appreciated for getting around. The host was also very responsive to questions.

The traditional aspects of everyday life. Cleans and authentic. The car was an added bonus that proved itself useful for dinner. A great experience.

This was one of the best accommodations we've ever stayed in. We stayed overnight as a halfway point for our riding of the Shimanami Kaido. Everything was clean and clearly labelled. The futons were the most comfortable we've stayed on. The bath was also great. The towels were soft and fluffy. There was a washer and drier which was very convenient. There was even a first aid kit which was very useful as one of our members had an injury. We didn't have a dog, nut there were so many extra facilities for digs including a grooming station. There was even Netflix on the TV. It was a remote location, but we prepared beforehand by buying food and heating it up at the house. There's a BBQ you can rent if you let the host know beforehand. The host also owns a nearby popular lemon themed store called Limone. It's a lovely store which we would highly recommend stopping by. Owner surprised us with a box of puppies in the store which she had saved from being slaughtered. Would love to stay here again!

Of dozens places I stayed around the world, this is most definitely at the top of my list. Everything was amazing, including the price, place, house, facilities, help from the staff (especially at Limone!!), and of course the car.

Limited cooking equipment and no salt, pepper or oil, let alone a pan to cook with! They wanted to charge 3850 Yen for the use of a BBQ. Most properties provide use for free. Only 1 tea bag and coffee bag for person per day. Too bad if you want more than 1 coffee The toilet is old and doesnt smell or operate that well The basic dried noodle and drinks contained in property have a premium charge to them. Simply not value for money when you consider other AirBnbs we stayed - when the second bedroom is a blind in one room

Great location

Stayed in May 2025

All remote checkin, no personal contact. The 2 bedroom was really 1 large bedroom with a flimsy partition. Online ID check-in process did not work for us.

It was a nice house, old style Japanese, well appointed and comfortable. In an old rural village that was an interesting glimpse into life in rural Japan. Responded quickly to emails and provided quick troubleshooting with our check-in problem
