Villas in Toyooka

We really enjoyed our stay in this charming converted storage house, and it turned out to be the perfect retreat for two. The cozy space featured a well-equipped kitchen, making it easy to prepare meals. With the heat pump and additional heaters, it was super warm and inviting, despite the cold winter outside. Parking right in front was a real luxury in Japan, and a big plus for us. While the 8-minute walk to the center could be a bit challenging in the winter wearing the geta with sock, it was a lovely way to cool down after a relaxing soak in the onsen. The hosts provided everything we needed for the onsen experience, and their hospitality truly enhanced our stay. Kinosaki is particularly charming at night, and although it might not be my favorite spot in Japan, spending a night to explore the town is definitely worthwhile. The onsens may not be the best in the country either, but they offer a wonderful experience, especially when walking around in a yukata!!! Overall, this hidden gem is perfect for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy a unique experience in a beautiful setting. I highly recommend it!

Excellent location, traditional house great experience very nice host

It was good to have one futon coach bed as one of our family members can't sleep on futon mats on the ground. This was the main reason we booked the accommodation. We liked the view but the kids loved the TV. Think there was Netflix.

A great change from staying in hotels. Really feel like you are living in a traditional Japanese village. The bath was absolutely amazing and saved our life as it was very cold weather when we came.

Everything was perfect: beautiful design, high-quality materials and attention to detail – even the tableware was wonderful! The apartment is very well equipped and located close to the sea in a charming traditional village. The hosts were very friendly, and communication was always quick and smooth. It’s a pity we could only stay for one night – we would love to come back soon!
