Monthly Rentals in Tonaki, Shimajiri District

When we arrived, we realised that we were lucky to have found a wonderful family, kind, generous and welcoming, a family that knows how to live and knows how to make others live. Of all the Airbnbs from all over the world that we have done, this one wins the prize for the best and if we could give it one more ⭐️ star, it would be well deserved. We left with a heavy heart, sad to leave such a beautiful place and such beautiful people. We have found new Nakamas and we are pretty sure that our paths will cross sooner or later. See you soon.

The place was beautiful and has everything you need. Yuri was incredibly nice and always responded directly to our messages. We were personally greeted and were even allowed to check in earlier. Everything is sparkling clean and wonderfully prepared. You felt right at home. We would highly recommend this place to anyone. Thank you!

Great experience! Super peaceful. I recommend this for anyone. Family friendly.

Kaori-san was incredibly kind and approachable, ensuring I had the best possible time in Kumejima—and I truly did! She provided thoughtful recommendations tailored to my interests, all of which were spot on. The house has all the advertised amenities, is well-kept, and remarkably clean. It isn't brand new, but that’s exactly what I was looking for—a vintage charm reminiscent of Japanese movies from the 90s or the countryside settings in Studio Ghibli films. While many see Kyoto as the quintessential Japanese experience (and it’s great, of course), this felt more like my kind of place. One highlight was booking a snorkeling trip with Kaori-san’s husband, which turned out to be unforgettable. He took me to a secluded spot accessible only by boat, where I swam alone in peaceful waters. The quiet allowed me to encounter a sea turtle and swim alongside her, as well as colourful, amusing fishes. A perfect blend of hospitality, charm, and adventure.
