The host is very responsive, replying messages promptly and she speaks very good English so we have zero issues for checking-in ! Alya the host completed the dual pilgrimage and I guess from there she understand the need of travellers. We love the place, feel like home after our long hours of hiking journey. The place is very very clean, bonus is they provide the laundry & drying machines, and provided some snacks for us to eat those are very sweet gestures.

The private, unobstructed view of the Torii gate itself is worth booking this place for. But on top of that, it’s a spacious, beautiful traditional Japanese house. Easily the most beautiful stay of the trip. There’s a great ramen place and konbini (convenience) store just a few mins walk down the road. The house is by a busy road, however the traffic mostly stops at night, you will sleep to the sounds of frogs (:

Spacious, Comfortable & Scenic – A Perfect Stay! I had an amazing time at this apartment and would highly recommend it for anyone looking for a relaxing yet convenient stay! 1️⃣ Spacious & Well-Equipped: The apartment was surprisingly large, with a private shower, toilet, and a fully functional kitchen. It felt like a home away from home—so comfortable and well-designed! 2️⃣ Beautiful Garden: There’s a lovely little garden attached to the property, which was such a peaceful spot to unwind in the morning or evening. A rare and wonderful feature! 3️⃣ Convenient Location: While not right in the city center, the apartment is reasonably close to bus stops and attractions, making it easy to get around without the noise of a busy area. 4️⃣ Great Local Recommendations: The host suggested a fantastic ramen shop nearby that opens as early as 7 AM for breakfast—perfect for early risers or hikers. They also offer lunch boxes to take on mountain hikes, which was incredibly handy! Overall, this place offers the perfect mix of comfort, space, and convenience. Whether you're exploring the area or just want a cozy retreat, this apartment is an excellent choice. I’d definitely stay here again! 🌿🏡

Love it. It's my second night in Shino's guest house (1st night is in takahara). The location is much better here, only 10 min walk from Chikastuyu-oji. We have Beigo & egg & salad & coffee for breakfast, and shino even prepared salmon for lunchbox. I was refreshed by the lunchbox during second day's walk. The house is facing rice farms. Very green outside. Frogs, fireflies are around. You can also see stars outside (unfortunately it's cloudy on my stay). A chilling place.

Spacious house, really clean, not far from the village. The dinner was perfect, served in bento boxes what was super after hiking the Kumano Kodo for a full day. Next morning we had breakfast in the cafe that the owner runs, right next to the bus stop. Both breakfast and location were perfect.

We were looking for a place to stay to explore nature, beaches and peaceful japan after staying in the big cities. This place is really nice, is brand new and is well thought through. We were staying as a family of 5: one on the couch below and 4 in the spacious sleeping room upstairs. The shop in the village (3 m walk) had all the necessary groceries, and the bento boxes/fresh fish is really good. As others have said: all amenities are there, the host is super responsive and goes above and beyond to make your stay comfortable. As it is in a quit residential area be mindful of neighbours but trust me, once here you will instantly become very relaxed
