Excellent value and well maintained. The breakfast was simple yet filling and tasty. The bike availability was a huge selling point for me since I didn’t have a car (it was very hilly so I had to bike slow but there was no rush). It’s perfectly situated between Kabira Bay to the west and Yonehara Beach to the east with beautiful views in both directions. The manager was incredibly helpful in helping me with some last minute travel plans and notably responsive all around.

Its location in Kabira is secluded which is great for those seeking relaxation and quiet but can be tough to find restaurants that are open. If you plan to eat somewhere or need a taxi, call well in advance to make a reservation so you don’t make the same mistake I did.

Shige, our host was absolutely lovely. He was so helpful, kind and informative and we really enjoyed talking to him. He also made a real effort with our 11 year old son. The room was really well sound proofed despite having rooms either side. It was helpful having the air conditioned eating area and microwave available any time as well as the washing machine. We loved being on this side of island, really green, beautiful and quiet. While you can't swim at close by Crystal Beach, it's great for walking along. Nearby Sukuji beach was perfect for swimming with a safe netted area.

The nearest super markets, even small ones like Family Mart are on the other side of the island so you need to be aware of that if arriving later in the evening as we did. There is a basic shop nearby but very limited and not always open. Shige helped direct us to a nearby place we could find later dinner. The bathroom had a standard toilet rather than a hi-tech Japanese toilet.

The host was just perfect: nice, welcoming, ready to help and give advice and local info. The location is very remote: you have to organize to get food (there is a very small and expensive store at foot distance); awesome as there is a beach for snorkling as an extension of the mansion. we went in mid december: off season; a bit cold; not perfect weather; but there nobody in the hole island. we went there by bike from city center: 20 km; it requires a bit of muscle but doable for mmoderately fit people and the path is goregeous. Plus doing this around by bike is perfect

Shige is a pergect host, the place is really lucky to have him. Very helpfull, sincere, gave us a lot of tips, recomendations about the area and helped us a lot as we booked the place before finding out that we will not be able to rent a car in the island. We would recomend to have a car if staying in this part of the island. But even without the car and with the help of Shige our stay was perfect. The empty amazing beaches around and sirene rural atmosphere was the highlights what made me not willing to go anywhere else.

Nothing Rent a car as the public transport is quite rare and enjoy your stay

We booked this place with breakfasts. Breakfast are ok. There are free bicycles available for guests but they need to be fixed, the steering handlebar is very unsteady in almost all bicycles. This place is in the middle of nowhere, we were aware of this and we liked it and after Tokio it was nice counterweight but be aware there is very little stores in area. Rent a car.

The owner is incredibly friendly and helpful. The location of the apartment has been very convenient for us. The beds are very comfortable. The room has an aircon, small fridge, small TV and a table with a chair. There is a common room equipped with a toaster, microwave, cutlery and plates which was very convenient. The apartment was clean and a parking lot for our car has been available. We enjoyed sitting outside on the deck.

Lovely little spot a stone's throw from Yonehara beach. A mid/budget option run by a really cool couple. I've stayed a few times and I'll stay again. Nice breakfasts!

The road down to the hotel from the main road is poorly signposted and a bit rough'n'tumble. The first time I stayed, it was raining, I was on a (motor)bike and it was very hard to see the sign and find the hotel. The next time, the rough and scrabbly road had me very worried about the underside of the rental car I was in. Otherwise, no complaints. (Also. Yonehara bech isn't quite walkabale or swimmable from the hotel, but it NEARLY is.)

The location of this place is just perfect! Away from the city, you can enjoy the countryside at his best. This part of the island is beautiful. You have a rocky beach and a pond just few minutes away. Yonehara beach is just 5 minutes away by car. The manager is an amazing and very kind person. We had a problem and he helped us a lot. He also prepared a very good barbacue for us!

The bedrooms look even better than in the pictures, they are comfy and fully equipped and private bathroom. Also has easy deal for laundry. And last but not least least, the host was really kind and helpful. The breakfast was very good!!

All good :)

The breakfast was filling, varied and very good. It was homemade and was prepared when we sat down at the table.

The beds were a bit hard. Those who weigh less than 70 kg do not notice it, but if you weigh a little more, it became a small problem. There were no mattress pads.
