『Slow&Cozy resort on the hill』 Phoenix inn

A private inn quietly standing on a hill overlooking the Pacific Ocean The room is 70 square meters in size, and from the large windows you can see the symbolic Phoenix tree and the trees and flora and fauna of the Pacific Ocean, and in the open panorama, the sound of wild birds and the rising sun in the morning, and the sky turns scarlet at dusk when the sun sets... At night, the sound of insects mixed with the roar of the tide is the natural rhythm of this place. The "Moonrise" that shines when the moon is full shines over the sea I think you can feel "a reward for yourself" and "the preciousness of nature" while looking at the moon path and the starry sky. The owner himself designed the house where he lived for many years, and with the help of craftsmen, he has just completed a full renovation [completed R7/September] using natural materials. He created this place with the idea of a place to weave together memories and stories of family, friends, and lovers, away from everyday life on the hill. There is a small beach right down the hill where you can enjoy fishing and swimming. There are also great places for marine sports, golf, touring, and cycling in the surrounding area.

Beachfront Traditional Japanese House – IBII STAYⅡ

Wake to the sound of waves, and dive into the sea. Fall asleep to that same sound each night. This coastline is Japan's "nangoku" — sunny, palm-lined, and warmed by the Kuroshio Current. Surf, walk the shore, or simply breathe in the sea air, and watch the sun rise over a quiet fishing village at dawn. The house is a little old, with limited air conditioning and the occasional insect — but cozy under the kotatsu in winter, cooled by sea breezes in summer. An undiscovered side of Japan awaits.
