Nature eco lodge holiday rentals in Japan

Mama-San and Papa-San are some of the best people I’ve met. They are very kind and very personable. I felt like I was at home or at my grandparents house. They gave me great recommendations on things to do in the area. They treated us like family. I would go back in a heartbeat. They also have great food

I’ve been staying at SunChild for almost 2 years now, and I always look forward to seeing my friends there. Even though it is primarily a surf school and outfitter, they always seem to have room for us and our seldom-used surfing skills. No matter your language, there is always exciting conversation there, and the eclectic mix of young and old, no matter your skill level, always leaves you with a sense of longing and nostalgia as you await your next visit. As always, thank you to Hiroki, Yuka, and the rest of the family!

2回目の滞在でした！前回と違うお部屋がいいという勝手なリクエストに対応していただき、さらに海の見えるお部屋を用意して頂き、本当にありがとうございました。 お部屋も、洗面台、お風呂も清潔に管理されていました。 1人でゆっくりするのが旅行の目的のひとつでもあったのですが、とても快適に過ごすことができました。 また御宿に行く際には利用したいです！

This place is our new spiritual home, we absolutely loved it! The house is a 20 year project - beautifully crafted by the Kind-hearted artist Kazuki-San. We stayed in the knights room, perfectly equipped to cook and relax, with a magical view and wide balcony. There is a mezzanine, where you sleep, which is so comforting and fun to rest on. From the house, you can do some stunning hikes in the Hira mountain range, challenging but great for adventures. A train ride away is another fun hike to Yobai falls. There is also a local ceramics studio and Oberton, with great coffee. The most special thing though was Kazuki-San, who took the time to guide us to some local rural spots, we went to a sake factory, ate sakura mochi on the Otsu bridge, saw the oldest trade route in Japan and an exhibition studio with other local artists after which we enjoyed a lovely portion of Soba Noodles together. There is a special place in our hearts for this experience, we can’t wait to return and be reunited.

The place is secluded, tug a few hundred meters away from the busy main town, yet very accessible to the town and ski resort by foot. I came in the winter and the scenery is just unreal. The house itself is wooden structure and it's warm and very cozy, feel right at home. Even though it is shared bathroom and toilet, they were all maintained very well and clean. I stayed in a single room that is actually large enough to fit three people, which made me very comfortable. Lastly, Ado is an amazing person, straight forward, reasonable, helpful, cool and very friendly. The other staffs were also very chill to vibe with. Overall, my stay here was excellent, and I would recommend this place to anyone who is in no hurry, and just want a place to chill, or just want a cozy place to rewind after a long day of adventure out there. 這間乾淨，溫暖，老闆員工好相處，非常酷又很有家的感覺。是個出去玩一天後可以好好休息的地方。

Great place to stay! Located right next to the mountain so it was super convenient for snowboarding. Friendly staff and cute dogs! They offer shuttles to other ski resorts in Hakuba or into town which made getting around easy. Would definitely stay here again!

We had an amazing stay at Guest House Bunk in Myoko! The rooms were spotlessly clean, including the bathroom and the Onsen, which was a perfect way to relax after a long day on the slopes. The whole place had a great vibe—tidy, comfortable, and well-maintained. Sasa, the host, really made the experience memorable. The food was absolutely delicious, with a variety of dishes. He was incredibly flexible, dropping us off and picking us up at the ski resorts every day, which made our lives so much easier. Another big plus was the ample storage for ski equipment. The drying room for wet gear was huge, and everything we needed was there to keep our gear in top condition. I’d highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Myoko—great location, fantastic host, and excellent facilities!

Akiu Canada is a very unique place to stay - old traditional Japanese style inn with wooden floors, sliding doors and authentic old style furniture. To stay in this house with a long history is a very memorable experience in itself. Steve was very accommodating and friendly, and helped to get in/out to the station by providing a taxi service for a very reasonable fee. Note: the location is quite remote, with only few buses per day, so if you want to go out everyday to the city, it's not the most convenient place for that. Shopping and dining options nearby are limited. The place is old: meaning not everything is perfect, and if staying in late autumn, it can get chilly in the common areas. But inside the room it's warm with the heater. On the upside the vibe and atmosphere is super cool (if you're into experiencing authentic Japanese inn) and there's a real onsen inside the inn, which is awesome. Highlight for me was a river walk with Steve and another guest. Really fun experience!

非常好的住宿环境，泡澡很棒很舒服，非常安静的房间，物超所值！

Great value onsen hotel. Smarter than the photos or price lead you to think. I stayed in a Japanese style room, which was very spacious. It had its own balcony, a separate seating area by the windows with fridge and teapots, mugs, etc, and a large living / sleeping space. There is an ensuite toilet and sink but the shower is in the onsen on the first floor. I received detailed check in instructions for self check in but there was a receptionist there between 4-11pm on the days I stayed so they checked me in when I arrived. The hotel is located up a hill. This means it is peaceful with super views down the mountain to the sea. However, unless you have a car you will probably rely on the local bus. It is every 40 mins and is very reliable. It departs from across the road from Kinomiya station at 14, 54 and 34 mins past the hour and drops you about 2-3 mins walk from the hotel. It is the number 11 to Ainohara. You can also pick it up from Atami station.

The lodge is absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views of the surrounding mountains and a serene atmosphere. The rooms are not only spacious but also incredibly comfortable and tastefully decorated. The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful, always available to answer our questions and provide recommendations for local attractions. The breakfast was not only delicious but also varied and plentiful. We especially enjoyed the fresh, locally sourced ingredients and the homemade sourdough bread. Thank you for everything.

Nous avons passé un séjour incroyable dans cet hôtel ! Les bains étaient excellents, et l’ambiance de notre appartement rappelait parfaitement le style traditionnel japonais, ce que nous avons adoré ! Le petit-déjeuner inclus dans la prestation était également un vrai plus. Merci beaucoup pour tout ce que vous offrez, je recommande vivement !

Really enjoyed my stay, very friendly staff & beautiful surroundings. 😊

ありがとうございました

Great location and perfect furnishing. Dog friendly amenities. The only problem is that it is so popular that it is difficult to get a reservation.

Such a memorable place to stay. Fabulous hosts, clean and comfortable rooms, fabulous food and best of all were the memorable interactions with the hosts. We can’t WAIT to go back and had such an amazing holiday. Very highly recommend this fantastic place. Have already recommended to numerous friends !

Happo-One resort area is pretty dead in May. Very peaceful 3 days. Very few restaurants open. Kizuna Lodge is cozy with very friendly staff. Breakfasts were good. Decent amount of space in the room. 10 minute walk to the Happo-One bus station and the Lawson store. Would love to come here in the winter during ski season.

文句無しの最高の宿でした。サウナやBBQなどの着火や薪の管理など初心者で不安でしたが、ひとつひとつ分かりやすく動画で手順を見る事が出来たのですぐに覚える事が出来ました。サウナはしっかり高温になりますし、水風呂や露天ジャグジーも最高でした。またアメニティの木の歯ブラシもとても気に入りました。タオルも沢山置いてくれているのでとても助かりました。プライベート空間で隣の音なども気にならずのびのびと過ごす事ができ、愛犬も芝生を走り回りとても楽しそうでした。ホストのToshiさんとのメールのやりとりは毎回返信が早く安心感がありました。もう一泊したかったです。また必ず泊まりに来ます！

整體來說是一個很好的住宿環境，下次前往此地點會再繼續入住，謝謝房東

We had a good time staying with our 7-month old and our labrador. We stayed in the wintertime so we definitely enjoyed warming up at the sauna and in front of the bonfire. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Our dog got along well with the resident dog. We hope we can visit again in the summertime.

Nous avons passé une nuit avec un groupe de 15 amis. Le logement était impeccable, les chambres confortables, le Onsen reposant et le jardin parfait pour faire un petit feu de camp. Je recommande fortement !

お世話になりました！大学同期との卒業旅行で利用させていただきましたが、貸切の対応をしてくださり、他の宿泊者を気にすることなくくつろげました！ 素敵なキッチンテラスでBBQもでき、大満足です！ ヨーロッパのようなお部屋もとても可愛らしく、ぜひまた利用させていただきたいです！
