The owner runs the place alone, but he still went all the way to the airport to pick me up. Despite my very limited Japanese ability, we were able to communicate quite well.. But the most important thing was he helped me rent a small scooter that I surely would not be able to rent without a local person vouching for me. This made my Amami trip really unforgettable and I'm forever grateful for the help I have received here! Also the evening of tasting local shōchū and stargazing was amazing. I will be back!

The best place we stayed during our month-long trip around Japan. It’s a true traditional Japanese home full of character. The rooms are large and spacious, and downstairs there’s a cosy kitchen and living room. The wonderful and warm host, Barbara, took amazing care of us, and we spent a lovely evening together. She introduced us to Japanese calligraphy, as she’s a talented artist herself. This place is truly a hidden gem.

Everything was amazing! The host was incredibly kind and helpful. Every time I had a question—both before and during our stay—the response was instant and clear. We truly felt welcomed. The house itself was absolutely charming, with a magical atmosphere that perfectly suited the surroundings. When we arrived, the fireplace was already lit, offering us a warm and cozy welcome. We were genuinely sad that we couldn’t stay longer. Highly recommend!

Hosts were incredibly kind and hospitable. Despite a language barrier, they asked us what our plans were, whether we needed breakfast or a packed lunch, and they made sure we had the necessary information to plan our trek out to Jōmon Sugi. They also provided tea upon our arrival!

The accomondation is only 35 minutes away from Naze and super close to the seaside. Various beaches are close by and you can rent all kind of beach equipment from the hosts. The hosts themselves are incredibly welcoming, kind and helpful. The accomondation is modern, clean and has a view on the ocean.

We stayed for 3 nights in this brand-new guesthouse, which opened in June 2025. The rooms were very comfortable and spotless, and the bathrooms and common areas were also impeccably clean and well equipped to make guests feel at home. The value for money is unbeatable. The host is a wonderful person: kind, respectful, and very welcoming. One evening he even invited us to join him at a local restaurant where we could try unique island specialties (such as goat sashimi and other delicacies). Overall, we highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a warm and authentic stay.

The host was absolutely lovely! Even though she knew limited English, she tried her best and was extremely charming and welcoming. The facilities are very clean and it was easy to meet and socialise with the other guest. The bathroom is very good too, and you could use the shower if you're not comfortable with the Japanese bath culture of using the same water. Plus, cats are very cute too!

It's absolutely an alright place to stay. Don't go if you're desperate to meet new friends. Although we had a couple of fun talks, it's mostly a quiet hostel. 100% value for money and super conveniently located near the train station. Staff is friendly and accommodating. Cheap washing and drying.
