Masao San is very nice and helpful. They can speak fluent English. The house was cosy and well furnitured. If you have time, you should come to the house early and talk with the host since they have lots of stories. It's better to drive to their house. We enjoyed our stay with them.

Cosy little cottage lovingly built by the owner. Good for 4 to 5 people. It has a double bed in a ground floor room, and an attic room in which 2 to 4 (perhaps more) futons can be laid out to sleep. Comes with an old fashioned stove/fireplace. The owner Masao and his wife are very friendly. The GPS coordinate given was a few hundred meters off, and given that there were no clear house numbers or road names, it was almost by chance that we found the correct place. Hopefully this will be remedied soon. Otherwise an almost perfect stay!

It is our third time in Japan but Shimanto's area and Masao's cute little house were definitely part of our most enjoyable experiences in the country. The house is very well equipped and it is very comfortable. It is surrounded by nature but it is also 8 minute away from Shimanto-shi by car, so in a very beautiful and convenient location. Our hosts were very kind and willing to share great stories during breakfast time. We really had a good time and we feel lucky to have met Masao and Harumi. The area is worth visiting: the Shimanto river, the cape, beautiful beaches and very good restaurants!

That was our first visit to Shikoku (particularly Shimanto). Upon checking into the booked accommodation, we were impressed with the "green" and "secluded" environment. The house was built and decorated in cottage style - well become one of the environment! We loved the beautiful china wares and glass wares provided. Thank for Mr. Masao's tasteful arrangement. We absolutely enjoyed the cozy and warm evening of cuddling beside the wood burning fire place, sipping a bottle of Bordeaux and enjoying the music by Mozart! What a real treat for us! It is a memorable experience and the highlight of our 9 days tour of Shikoku.

This place is a bargain at twice the price. You get the whole house to yourself and it's quite a place. Masao, the host, built it himself and also the English garden. He himself is a very interesting man. Ask him about his ascent of a 7,000 meter peak in the Himalayas.

とても素敵な空間で心豊かな時間を過ごせました。Air B&B初体験の両親も良い思い出ができたと喜んでいました。 どうもありがとうございました。

I was beyond happy with the accommodation my stay overall. If you want to experience real Japanese culture & the wisdom, love & friendship of some truly genuine & inspiring people then you can't go past this. The food was the best I have had in Japan, & the conversations were always very fulfilling. Unique, & a must do.

I have a very interesting experience. Dialogue with Maiko's who have a living in the old house with conviction, homemade meal, was also good advice of it was interesting! Playground. Please do your best from now on!

What a nice and beautiful family!! Although we stayed only one night we had a great time and very good conversation - plus the best dinner in Japan so far!! Thank you Dai & family. We would love to see you again!

Maiko and Dae made us feel very welcome. Shimanto is a great place for those who want to feel closer to nature.

A very interesting experience. Seeing their lifestyle would make you appreciate the beauty in simple things.

As had been the image, it was fashionable married couple of old houses! Us that the road was no longer know, until the rain of Chugai, will be welcomed warmly, thank you. Longing of "Okudo's" and the dirt floor, and the glass door of the wooden frame, was also fun time slip experience. Arrival time and was very helpful will correspond to the flexible well as departure time.

The hosts are absolutely friendly and speaking good English! If you seek for a different experience from living in the city totally, this is what you want! As it's a house with 70+ years history, it's a stylish and traditional one while having a separated bathroom and toilet outside the house. In summary, it's recommended :)

It is a kind and pleasant host.

In a quiet environment, I got everything I needed, I was able to spend very comfortably! We corresponded pleasantly to check-in late at night and were very kind owners.

Hyotan is very nice, speaks good English, easy for communication. The house is traditional Japanese house with Tatami, my kid liked it very much. Silent and peace place, Hyotan picked up us from the station, and kindly help us rent the bicycles for visiting the city. Good experience, we passed a happy day there.

Magic's house is great and comfortable .They wait for my arrival in front of their house. Ms Hyotan is very friendly and helpful, she can speak good English, and help as to rent a car, also drive as to the local Japanese restaurant. I hope I can stay here again. I highly recommend all of you stay in here for your trip as well.

집안 인테리어가 편안한 느낌이였고 예뻤어요. 알아두시면 좋을사항은 변기가 수동으로 물을 부어서 내리는 구조여서 불편했어요. 변기에 많이 예민하신분들은 조금 고민해보세요. 그것말고는 집안에 여러가지 필요한것들이 많아 편리하고 다 좋았습니다. 참 램프가 예쁘더라구요. 집 마당에 주차할곳도 넓어 좋구요. 주변에 식당은 체인점하나 있다고 하더라구요. 조용한마을이 뒤로있고 마당앞엔 도로가 있는 곳입니다.

食器等整っていてとてもキレイでした。

趣きのあるとても綺麗なお家でした!キッチンにある食器類から、お部屋に置いてある家具まで、レトロでお洒落なのが素敵でした。 道に迷いチェックインがかなり遅くなってしまったのにも関わらず、丁寧に親切に対応してくださり、とても助かりました。ありがとうございました!

静かで空気の良いロケーション、仲間たちと四人でお世話になりました。 ホストさんも親切で、チェックインの際、現地まで来て下さりスムーズでした。 手作りのランプの明かりでゆっくり過ごすことが出来ました。 ありがとうございました。 民泊では普通なのかもしれませんが、歯ブラシ、テレビは無かったです。

シンプルな和室二部屋、板の間一部屋の民家。食器は数人分あり、キッチンもあるので、自炊可能。ホストの方はこまめに連絡をくれるので、チェックイン、アウト、それぞれで不便を感じることはない。古津賀駅からそれほど遠くはないが、徒歩ではなく、自転車や自動車などの乗り物利用推奨。

After a week of traveling in Japan via Tokyo and Kyoto, we spent two nights at Kaiyu Inn. Mitsu and his wife really welcoming and made us very confortable. His place is really quiet and peaceful. Ohki beach is still wild and is a kind of paradise after the craziness of the big cities of Japan. The diner was delicious, with no doubt it was the best meal we've had in Japan. Kaiyu Inn is not a simple hotel, everyone who wants to go there should visit Kaiyu's website it explains very well the concept. Those two days were really great. Thank you.

This place is really amazing! You feel like in a movie setting and Mitsuhiro is the director. The room was great, with very comfortable beds and an amazing view. The ocean is so close and the way to get there so beautiful. There is a restaurant close to the beach run by an old lady wich has lunch until 2 pm, which we also recommend. All staff are relaxed and very friendly. The onsen is beautiful. Dinner is exquisit. There even is a piano and we made music with other guests, which was very special. Thank you Mitsu for your open heart and mind! We had 2 amazing days at Mitsuhiros and would love to come back in the future!

Great host, great atmosphere (70's styled building nicely transformed into an eco guest house) Delicious food at the dinner, and fantastic location just by a beautiful beache. Worth going that south in Shikoku !

We couldn't have had a better experience at Kaiyu. Mitsu is a wonderful host and he's truly done something special at Ohki beach. To any visitors to Japan: visit Tokyo, visit Kyoto, and come down to Kaiyu. It provided a fascinating antidote to urban Japanese life, not to mention one of the best rooms we've ever stayed in. Spring for the Yamamoto designer suite. The food is well prepared and the beach is wide and nearly empty. Couldn't recommend this place more.

Even though you may think you've arrived at a hotel or ryokan when you see the building, it's actually a much more informal and social place. Mitsuhiro and his family are very welcoming people, and I like how they endeavor create a down to earth atmosphere where guests are encouraged to interact with each other and the family, including sharing a sumptuous dinner made from locale produce by a warm heating stove. Don't be afraid if you don't speak Japanese as Mitsuhiro speaks great English. The real beauty of Japan lies in its magnificent countryside and rural landscapes. It takes some time to get here, but public transportation is one of the joys of Japan, and you get to leave the beaten path and try real Japan. You get a lot more back for your buck as the rooms here are much bigger than comparatively priced rooms in the big cities.

First of all it is beautiful nature here! Ohki beach is a wonderful place. The stay is an old hotel , it has backpacker atmosphere. But for backpackers it is quite expensive , al lot of hidden costs like surf board 3000yen for half a day and dinner 3500 and breakfast 1000. You have to take this offers as the next supermarket is far away. If your fine with this the stay is perfect. With the japan rail pass it is hard to get there , because the trains a not driving far in the south of shikoku and you have to take a special train and the bus.

We were recommended to stay by a family member, he said it was one of the best places he had ever stayed!! We were not disappointed. We were made to feel very welcome, we had a lovely dinner with Mitsu, his wife and friends. Mitsu gave us amazing food and trip recommendations. We stayed two nights but wished we could have stayed for 2 months!! We will be coming back soon!

I really have a lot of respect for what Mitsuhiro is doing with the eco-resort. The rooms are spacious and have a beautiful view of the beach. The sound of the ocean will lull you to sleep! Especially when the traffic in front of the hotel dies down at night. Mitsuhiro is very helpful and his wife is a great cook! Be sure to get in on one of the excellent dinners! One of the best parts of this eco-resort is the onsen. Something about the water is very soothing. To get there from Nakamura station you have to take a bus which drops you right in front of the hotel. Be sure to tell your bus driver where you're going because the bus stop is new and it seems to be a little bit confusing to the bus drivers still Shikoku itself is definitely off the beaten path, so if you want to see you Japan is still untouched by foreign tourists head to Shikoku and to Mitsuhiro's place. In the evening the wood fired furnace fills the lobby with a wonderful smoky smell and the sound of people preparing dinner. The hotel itself is very eclectic and very interesting you have to see it for yourself! Okay beach is pretty cool too… Full of surfers yet it feels like you have the whole beach to yourself

Very nice

The guesthouse is at a very nice location only 2 min from the beach. Very quiet and clean. Very helpful host!

Michihito-san is a realy nice and helpful host. He takes care about you and is very available for questions or advices. I'll definitely chose his guesthouse if I go back to this area.

We only stayed at Michihitos place one night but found it to be a perfect place for our group of 5 walking pilgrims. Our host went out of his way to drive us to a grocery store 10 km away so we could buy food for dinner and breakfast. After staying at Minshukus and Biz Hotels we were happy to have our own space . The apartment has a kitchen with sink , fridge , toaster and microwave but no cooktop,, the bath is just right for one person to soak at a time. The two tatami rooms are lovely and the third room has two twin beds. Oki No Hama is a huge wide beach about 5-10 Minutes walk and usually has some people surfing. All in all a great stay at a good price and a host who really took good care of us.

Michihito is a great man! Super kind!He helped us a lot during our stay. He is learning spanish so if you can, speak to him in spanish!! The appartment is perfect!!in front of the beach. The area is very calm. No bars and no restaurants. Just the beach to practise surf or snorkel.

The house is easy to find and with a great view, which is located beside the oki beach. It is very clean and comfortable, we enjoyed so much and had a great time there. Mr. Michihito is very very nice, caring and helpful, he speaks good English as well. Thank you so much^^

Very nice place, and Michihito-san is a very kind man. I do the henro walk with a friend and he help us a lot. A lot of recommandations from us.

The house is clean and tidy, near the beach. Michihito is very nice and kind, highly recommended to stay for few nights when going to Shimanto!

Most unique, awesome, memorable experience of my trip (and I had plenty up there!). Very friendly host and family and a truly rustic, traditional, Japanese experience. The dinner was plentiful, delicious, and prepared with love. I enjoyed blowing through the bamboo shoot to get the coals burning more. Dai welcomed me warmly and offered lots of the local tastes, be it special salt mix for an invigorating detox hot bath, his homemade beer, sake cake, and the list goes on. AND to top it off... he's an Osteopath and gave an amazing session in the morning at a great price! I visited during my cycling trip and my body was a mess.... He totally aligned and loosened my body in a great way using his osteopath techniques combined with energy. GREAT stay and highly recommend it!!

GREAT stay!! No doubt it was the most remarkable experience during my trip in Shikoku. The house is run by super-friendly couples with their lovely daughter. We had a warm welcome when we arrived in the evening, followed by a traditional, delicious dinner. The house locates in the wood, with rice paddy in front of the main entrance. A very quiet location and surely we had a nice sleep at such a nice place. The hosts are true naturalists, not only because they use wood fire in the kitchen and grow veggie in their own garden, but also their values towards the environment. However the most valuable thing was the conversion we had during dinner. Our talk covered a wide range of topics, from current affairs to ethical values. The hosts were so kind to share their thoughts with us and it was much appreciated. Irreplaceable experience which is highly recommended!!

We only stayed for one night at Dai and Maiko's place, a short stop-off on cycle trip. They were very kind and accommodating, taking our booking at such short notice. Unfortunately this meant we didn't get the chance to try home cooking but we enjoyed the quiet rural atmosphere and brief insight into life by the Shimanto river. Many thanks.

We had a great stay at Shimanto house! Dai & Maiko have a wonderful family. The comunication was fluent and we had a relaxing 2 nights stay. The dinner we had was delicious! And the beer made by Dai was great too ! We recommend everyone their house for having an insight in rural living in Shimanto area!

A little after the world, in the countryside of Shikoku, with a lovely family who made the choice to leave Tokyo and its 43 million inhabitants, his life centered on money and shopping, to live more naturally in harmony with its environment. So it's a little "roots", but authentic. The communication is in English, which is far from common in Japan, Shikoku in particular. In November it was a very nice stop, on sunny days it should be even better. Another Japan, different Japanese, a beautiful meeting.

Innkeepers very hospitable, the location easy to find, quiet environment, rural flavor. Ishibashi wife prepared dinner and breakfast to eat well, Mr. Ishibashi own brewed beer truly delicious! Pastoral Bed and Breakfast worth staying again!

A friendly family with smart pets, you can experience the simple life in this traditional old house with the lovely family, the dinner was so good, the living room was so good too. Thank you for inspiring the important things in life. よかったね。

I definitely loved this place and probably revisit this family if I come here again. You can feel the hospitality from the family with real contact to the nature at the same time. You can definitely have a relaxing time here. Recommended!

Very kind!!!. Good place.!!!

Ryoko is a fantastic person, and one of the most accommodating people I have ever met. Great host, great house, great location. You get the whole house to yourself, both upstairs and down. And the most comfortable futon I've ever slept on. Ryoko helped me to the house, and even back to the train station to rent a bicycle. The house is located 100 meters from the ferry's which can take you to a beautiful island south of Sukumo or you can take the ferry to Kyushu. I highly recommend Ryoko's airbnb as well as Sukumo for a great rural experience, especially if you are heading to South Shikoku or Kyushu.

this house is quite big. sometime feel a little bit lonely because so many room and also to huge for me ^^. the facilities is top notch!! btw thanks for letting me to stay in your place.

Sukumo is but he was not in the plan, was the visit of led to this room at Airbnb. And go downstream to be about 30 minutes of Shimanto River, also about 40 minutes from the surf point, in front of the eyes there is a ferry of okinoshima bound that can dive, enjoy the very best the west side of Kochi when there is a car though, it was a very good location. In about a large Ouchi become bored in four families, we were allowed to relax To spacious. Because it was when the tiles as the interior there is interest, pretty impressive and very beautiful bath tile. What the old days of the bath, I Are tiles had been stuck to the bathtub. cute. In addition, the front of the sea of eyes is a very seemed old fishing port quiet, walk or, you can enjoy to play with a lot of stray cats us. Because it was right next to the ferry landing of okinoshima bound, I wanted to go by all means, that was forced to abandon because it was staying in the typhoon hit, very sorry! Although it was likely to enjoy snorkeling and diving, you will regret that was not possible. Ryoko's host Even if you're very good, or I am tell me what surf point and delicious, really we have to many things well. In this trip, because the Kochi has become very fond, also visiting would like to let me come again used.

Ryoko met my family and i at the house, early in fact and had everythign ready, including the tatami mats and towels. The location was good! there is a nice view of the harbor and the pictures were very accurate in their description. overall, my family and I were very happy with this stay!

Also in pre-contact will be asked to respond politely, it was lent to snorkel set. Since the luggage is even more just, lending of snorkel was saved to Honma. It was the perfect guest house in the tourist island off. Morning in time for the shipping service position, I was very thankful.

Huge place, and minutes to the ferry terminal. We were driving along the coast in Shikoku and wanted to take the earliest morning ferry the next day. This was the best place to have a good sleep, refresh, re-arrange our bags and be at the ferry terminal way before time. The block is quite and nice. Not much in the nights. But the buzz and night life is not far, just minutes drive to where the train station is. Great place if you want to rest in the town.

Use to two days ago, because it was very comfortable, I was in a hurry to the other night. Because it was the timing that became suddenly cold, had me put additional blankets. It was available with confidence received a fine thoughtfulness.

This is a great place in a great location. Masashige is a really nice host, hope to come back soon for a longer stay!

Masashige-san was very accommodating to me and my family. He has a small restaurant on the first floor. His pizza and spaghetti are amazing. He can also make a great breakfast. I highly recommend to stay at Masashige's place.

とても詳しく親切に地元のことを教えて頂きました。 ホスト様のオススメの大岐の浜というとてもキレイな浜辺が近くにあり、行きも帰りも車で立ち寄りました。 シャワーも快適で洗面所やトイレが二箇所あり、広くて快適なお部屋でした。バスタオルもありました。 夜、外に出ると星がよく見えました。 夜ご飯はピザと手打ちパスタを頂きとても美味しく500円でご用意して頂き大満足です。 小学三年生の子供づれで行きましたが、子供が楽しめるお話やマジックなど披露してくださり、子供づれにもやさしいお宿です。

房東雖然英文不是很好,但很熱心也很努力跟我們溝通。 我們隔天行程臨時變動,想預約釣魚的活動,礙於只能打電話預約,房東一口答應幫我們打電話!超級感謝。 雖然房子位於較偏遠地區,但沒光害的港邊,幾乎可以看見銀河與眾多星星,值得入住。

宿泊スペースは知人の部屋を借りている感じです。 夕食と朝食をそれぞれ\500で追加していただけ、 夕食は手打ちのパスタをいただけて満足しました。 車で10分程のところに日帰り入浴可能なホテルもあり、良かったです。

とてもいいホストの方でした! テキストの返信も早く、料理の盛り付け等も親切にしてくださいました。 自信を持ってお勧めさせてもらいます。ありがとうございました!

のんびり、じっくり。そして夜は明かりのない海岸沿いの星がきれいです。

It was a very pleasant stay, thank you very much Rosie for your warm welcome and kind advices. The accommodation was cosy and well-organised, keeping the beauty of typical old (rural) Japanese house. Surrounding mountains, the river and rice fields were very beautiful too.

Our stay at Rosie's place was A-MA-ZING! Her house is wonderful and she was a great host! It was really cold and he had prepared a warm kotatsu in our room for us to warm our feet... Heaven! We shared dinner with her and it was so enriching to hear her talk about her experience in Japan and to share our impressions with her. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip in Japan! If you happen to travel in the area don't miss Rosie, her lovely place and her four legged companion Barry, they are really worth a visit! Thank you Rosie, it was great to meet you :)

We had a lovely time staying at Rosie's beautiful home. Rosie was an excellent host, telling us all about the local area and cooking us some awesome food for the road. Shimanto is a stunning area of Shikoku and well worth a visit!

The place is very good and comfortable. Rosie is very mice and her dogs are so friendly. We all enjoyed to stay here. But a little bit far away to city.

One can rarely find a place like Rosie's which is a large traditional Japanese house inside a typical Japanese village with extensive farmland beside the Shimanto river. I had a lot of private space and the house was clean and cozy. It would be convenient if you have a car. As I couldn't drive, Rosie was very kind to pick me up and drive me to the train stations. She was very caring in messaging me to ensure my safety and including me in her friends' gathering at home. Highly recommended.

My stay with Rosie was really great. Rosie made me feel really at home, and did everything to make my stay perfect. The Japanese style house is beautiful and the area is rural and amazing. I really enjoyed Rosie's company and her enthousiastic dog.

Rosie's place was by far the best Airbnb we stayed in during our stay in Japan. It's a beautiful tradional old Japanese house, where we had our own space ( beautiful living room and bedroom). It's surrounded by mountains, rice fields and the river. A very quiet place, except for the wonderful sounds of nature. We had no car, but used her bicycles or the early bus (09.44 hrs) to Kubokawa and took the local train to the south (10.15 hrs). The busstop is in front of her house. Last bus from Kubokawa departs at 17.45 hrs. A taxi costs about 2500 yen. The beach of Tosa-Irino is great, worth a visit. Nobody there, just you and the waves. Rosie also was the best host we had. Perfect communication by email. She picked us up from the trainstation and took us to the supermarket for our shopping (no shops nearby). She is a really nice person, so is dog Barry with his fluffy ears, a lovely dog. We loved it so much we stayed a bit longer as planned (only 2 days). This part of Shikoku is so beautiful andf relaxing, with the ricefields, mountains, rivers, little villages and beaches and sea. Everybody visiting Japan should go to this area. And to Rosie's place: highly recommended!!

Fantastic place to stay. The house and rooms were immaculate. We could not believe how wonderful it was to stay in a genuine Japanese house with such a comfy bed. Rosie was amazing with her knowledge and understanding of Japanese culture, so much so that it added another dimension to our stay in Japan. Thanks Rosie

This is a small home not reachable by car, it is just next to a local train line tucked between a forest and tea plantations. Akinori turned this home into a small hostel with lots of caracter and some fun twists.

Local train lines can enjoy up close, it was a great location of the room. There is also a cherry tree. It was a 4-year-old major brands, but the room there is a train of toys and hammock in, we are happy to spend fun without being bored children. One difficulty is that the bathroom was cold. Since the next day was rain, it was in trouble the place to go is to visit a hot spring and a nice bakery that had you introduced to Mr. Akinori, was able to spend meaningful time. Akinori-san, it gives me a lot of advice of the journey if you ask from here. Otherwise is, Could Keep in O'ho to feel good, it was Kokochiyoka' also the sense of distance.

akinori offered to pick me up from a station about 12km away for a modest price, which was very helpful. Overall it was great but modest room with great atmosphere, but like many japanese lodgings, way too stiff about explaining all the rules and posting them everywhere. ruins the mood after a long day.

In the wilderness of Shimanto, it is the best location to say. The host of you were also able to spend fun and friendly. Because plenty to enjoy location of the Yodo Line, it is especially recommended for railway fans.

It is a lovely guest house. Through the narrow back streets, located in the location, such as a secret base to wear follow and it passes through the bottom of the line. There was a open-air Goemonburo. Because it is too open space, it was not put by the swimsuit wear principle, it is very comfortably likely. In the line of previous Yodo Line of the eye, it is fun to see up close the train to pass through. Since the one-car train, but is a moment, on the other hand, I did not feel up to the noise.

Kazuko-san went out of her way to make this an amazing and authentic experience for us. Her house is a perfect combination between comfort and a beautiful Japanese house. She prepared breakfast which was delicious and clearly showed her effort and thoughtfulness. We really enjoyed our short stay there. It was also really convenient to get to the supermarket as her house literally shared a carpark with the supermarket.

Kazuko is such a great host! She took us to the grocery store near by and prepared nice breakfast for us. Her room is so nice equipped with everything a traveller need. I will definitely recommend this place to everyone who plans to stay at Shimanto.

The best experience I've ever had. The house is located at a quiet area. We had a sound sleep and enjoy the sunshine every night and morning. Room is quite big and built by wood, feels very comfy. Kitchen, wash machine, bathroom, wifi, etc. everything you need is there. However, those are not the best part yet. The most awesome thing is the host herself: Kazuko. She is extremely friendly, gentle and talented. When we were sick, she took care of us. She made amazingly yummy breakfast with fresh fishes and vegetables. We had a great time with Kazuko just like a family.

We were allowed to stay for three families. The away plump, widely more than sufficient even three people since the borrowed, there is a very clean, was comfortable to spend in good cleaning. Amenities also substantial. Above all, it's Kazuko was a little bit of time in the way very good I wanted to talk more slowly! In addition, now a nutritional supplement in even if I nutrition tend bias travel out of rice in the morning! It was very delicious. Also I wanted to let me stay if given the chance! Thank you very much.

Host is very friendly and caring. Very comfortable foom with sufficient facilities. Host provides fresh organic foods from her garden, together with varieties of other food stuff. Really enjoyable. I recommend all people to stay in.

We had the great privilege to meet and stay with Kazuko. We had a lovely time with her. Her house is very comfortable and very bright. We were visiting the area for a cycling trip on the island of Shikoku. It was an unforgettable moment that you have shared with Kazuko. Delicious breakfasts and futons very mellow! She showed us her area. We hope to return one day. We recommend Kazuko. This is a super nice and welcoming host like a real mummy :-)

Kazuko was the greatest host ever. She went to take us at the station, her house was wonderful, we had more than just a room, but a full house, kitchen and bathroom for us. She offered her a delicious breakfast and other food, helped us with traveling around, bringing us to the restaurant, and places we wanted to go. She was just like a mother.

I and my wife enjoy the comfortable stay here very much. The house is so big that we have a private room, kitchen and toilet for ourselves. The area is so clean and tidy. The host even prepares a very delicious and rich Japanese breakfast for us. After the breakfast, we are very happy to have a long chat with the host. The parking area is huge and you should be able to park. This is my best experience in Shimanto. Many thanks to Kazuko for your hospitality.

四万十町の自然の中のお宿です! 本当に施設の設備、清潔感、親切さは素晴らしかったです!人も良くアドバイスも的確なので、おすすめのお宿だと言えます! また利用したいと思います!

とてもフレンドリーなお宿でした。のびのびゆったり過ごせました。家族や友人などグループの利用におすすめです。

自然の豊かな場所にあるすごく素敵なゲストハウスでした。 清潔感や設備の充実した施設も素晴らしかったですし、オーナーさんのお心遣いが本当に素晴らしかったです。 近くの川遊びの出来る場所やスーパーの場所等も丁寧に教えて頂き、快適に過ごさせて頂きました!

まず返信が早くコミュニケーションを綿密に取れたのでスムーズ且つ快適にやり取りできました。 ゲストハウスですがとても綺麗で

この度は大変お世話になりました。 オーナーさんの素敵なセンスと素晴らしいホスピタリティの伝わってくるゲストハウスでした。 今回、幼児同伴だったので、気兼ねすることなく過ごせるように一棟貸しのゲストハウスを探しており、こちらに辿り着きました。 とても静かで、ゆっくりと過ごせました。 直ぐそばを電車が通りますが、私たちは特に気になりませんでした。むしろ新鮮でそれすらも心地よく感じました。 清潔感、対応、居心地、共に大満足です。 ありがとうございました。(*^^*)

本当に素敵な家です!綺麗だし、広いです。 ホストのAyakaさんは中国語が話せますので、色々話しました。楽しかったです! 廊下で夜空を見上げまして、最高な夜を過ごしました。 家のすぐそばに駐車するところがあって本当に助かりました。 レンタカーの方にオススメです!

一個有家的感覺嘅旅館,我們七人入住,大人小孩皆喜歡,Ayaka是個很友善很好笑容的人,最重要是可以用國語和她溝通,四國之旅住了7間旅館,這是我們最滿意的一間,唯一是地点比較難找些,開車去會較方便。

Beautiful views, walk to the ocean, and nice helpful English speaking host. I would def recommend this untouched part of japan and kaiyu.

If you are looking for the warmth and kindness and the feelings that you belong somewhere as a part of the family, then this is the place you go to in Kochi. They are so friendly and kind, trying to make me as comfortable as I could get like I am actually at home with my family. Micchan and Taechan(they were preferred to be called by such a cute nicknames! ) are just great couple. Her dinner which is macrobiotic and uses a lot of local fresh ingredients including Katsuo which is very known for this area of Japan. Staying with them at Kaiyu inspired me to be more creative with my life and reconnect with deeper self. YOGA activity I did with Micchan feeling the power of sunrise was life changing experience. Of course the room was wonderful fully cleaned and prepared for any purpose of the stay. I am definitely want to come back for longer stay!

It is clean and cozy guesthouse. Host is a kind person who can contact correspondence at any time. Because it is far from shops such as convenience stores, it is a very astringent environment for traveling.

Michihito kindly gave us a lot of advice, its emplacement is closely near Oki beach, we could admire a wonderfull sunrise on it! Great experience !

The host is very help trying to contact police station on my lost mobile phone, finally I got back my phone, thanks

Michihito is a wonderful host and speaks English - he is always prompt to reply to questions and flexible with arrive time and means of communication. You need to buy food before you come and the only means of cooking is microwave, but there is a kitchen table and chairs and it is comfortable and quirky. The two beds are foam but comfortable, the futons less so, but it is all very clean. There is no bottom sheet but the bed cover is washed after each guest and it was fine.

Accepted politely. I think that it is suitable for an overnight stay.

ビーチも近く、自然に囲まれたとても良いところでした。足摺岬から柏島の中間にあったので利用しました。優しい方で、観光についてもいろいろ教えて頂き、助かりました。夜は周りになにもなく、真っ暗、虫もいましたがそこまで気にならない程度だと思います。ありがとうございました。

急なリクエストにも関わらず、快く承諾して下さいました。 共用スペースもありましたが、滞在していた時に泊まっていた方とは一度も利用する時間が被らず、また一度も会わずにチェックアウトとなりました。 とても気さくな方でチェックインもスムーズでした。 天気があまり良くなかったのでビーチは微妙でしたが、本当に近いところにあるので天気が良い時に機会があればまたお世話になりたいと思います。 ありがとうございました。

Nice place in a quiet little corner of Shikoku. The host was very friendly and accommodating to our family with small children and we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The host has a small cafe downstairs and offered a reasonable breakfast which started the day off right. Highly recommend/would return.

きれいなおうちと人柄の良いマスターのおかげで快適に過ごせました。

オーナー様が、とても気さくで素晴らしい時間を過ごせました。 食事もでき、美味しかったです!

Mitsuhiros place was the most memorable of our trip. The rooms are located in a former hotel, where most floors haven't seen any visitors for quite some time, whereas the finished rooms are absolutely cosy and all share the view over Japans most beautiful beach. Right next to the hotel are the breakfast area and a very nice onsen with sustainable water and also the view over the beach. If I ever come to Japan again, I will definitely come back to Oki Beach!

Arriving at this eye catching place on earth, I as welcomed with an open hart and a big smile. The stay was perfect, and I felt at home. If you want to feel like reborn, please check out the onsen. It has been one of the best I tried out, and I have visited many already. The dinner and breakfast are home made, and are excellent. If you have any doubts about staying at this place, please throw them out the window. Just go. And be happy.

We spent great days at Mitsu's place and had a very warm welcome there. If you are looking for an unconventional place to stay, this could be the right one. It's a big, somehow a bit spooky kind of hotel-building, a bit derelict and moldy but that's also part of its charm. It could be the right scenery for shooting a movie. Beautiful view and nature, street and bus just in front of the building. 3 min walk to the beach. Optional offers are a bit pricey, like dinner (which was delicious) or renting bikes (which were 3 times more expensive than to rent bikes in Naoshima), but Mitsu made it up with his charm and wit. We definitively enjoyed staying there!

It was safely home. Under .. everyone of your family is in contact with a very warm atmosphere, it was a pleasant stay. There is also hot springs, meals not already product basis, it was happy. And we were able to fully relax in a modern, clean room. Thank you. In addition, I want to ask you if there is an opportunity.

Great unique experience! amazing views. excellent dinner. the room is a bit funky, but fun and clean overall. interesting furnitures and decorations. having to rent towel is a bit sad. this room is in an old condo complex from the 70s. it's kind of ruins atmosphere with carved out remodeled rooms - about 20 of 72 rooms are remodeled from what the host said. some of the hotel smells of mildew (especially the elevator) and there are parts that are a bit soiled. sort of disaster porn in a way. but this adds to the overall experience actually. onsen next door is great. our room had a very comfortable western style bed!

Mitzu and his wife were lovely, just like the view from our room. However, when you pay a premium price you expect a level of quality that was not there. Everything seemed to be tired and a bit rundown.

初めての宿泊なら夕食を団欒で食べるのがオススメ!とても素敵な時間を過ごせます。20人で囲んで大皿で食べる、高知野菜をふんだんに取り入れた夕食はめったに経験できません。
