Property information
A Private Villa for One Group Per Day
Enjoy a Luxurious Stay in Your "Hometown"
A shy smile from a local mother or the polished professionalism of a hotel concierge—which would you prefer? If the former makes your heart feel more at ease, such accommodations are indeed rare. "THE HOUSE" is a traditional Japanese farmhouse villa where we invite you to experience another "hometown."
Equipped with amenities like a sauna and authentic designer furniture, the villa offers the quality of a high-end retreat. However, its true charm lies in the heartfelt hospitality provided by local mothers. Deliberately steering away from formal "hotel-like" services, we focus on genuine smiles and welcome you as "guests of the community."
Unlike the impersonal "contactless" villas, "THE HOUSE" allows you to savor the essence of a hometown through its carefully prepared dinner and breakfast. For any requests, our concierge desk is available in both Japanese and English to support your stay.
We recommend staying for at least two nights. Spend your middle day leisurely, and by the end, you might just find yourself feeling that this place is truly your "hometown."
