Cottage vacation rentals in Japan

Amazing host, she is truly wonderful. The location was lovely but definitely rustic

The room was made to be exciting, and it was clean, so I was very satisfied! It was the best location on the beach right in front of us. I was impressed with the quick response to my advance contact. I'd like to stay again.

amazing host and amazing place ! thank you

Great house for me and my 6 friends. Walking distance to the town, roughly 10 minutes Rubbish was always grabbed if put in the outside bin. Great communication Host come and cleaned house half way through our stay and also restocked towels and kitchen

Beautiful house on an (almost) private beach. The house was very spacious. The rooms were big. Lots of great recommendations from the host. Looking forward to going back someday. The weather was not great a few days while we were there yet the comfortable and spacious house made it still very enjoyable. Open kitchen made it a joy to cook. The hosts provided plenty of charcoal and BBQ utensils. They also provided us with a box of fresh local pastries.

The rooms were also clean, and there were many rooms, so I was able to have a relaxing stay! There were a lot of bugs outside, so I gave up on the open-air bath, but I would love to use it next time I have the opportunity!

My only complaint is we couldn’t stay longer! Such a beautiful and cozy home with many thoughtful details. One of my favorite stays on Airbnb in some time. I hope to visit again someday!!!!

Nori’s place was very clean, well laid out, well stocked and extremely organised! The views of Mount Fuji from Lake Yamanakako were to die for.. Nori was prompt, respectful and responsive. The complimentary fruits and pre-warmed accommodation were well received and appreciated by my family. It was a pleasure to stay here, so close to the lake, free from the throngs of tourists; a must stay! Watch Mount Fuji from the privacy of your own spa!

The sea was visible from the accommodation. It was a very cosy and comfortable place to stay in :)

Very quaint neighbourhood. Quiet, spacious and clean. Highly recommend!

We spent Chrismas here, and our fmaily had a blast! They gave us a Christmas Tree which we were not expecting to have, nor did we ask for but were so pleasantly surprised! The owners were helpful with everything and communication was clear and super supportive. We had a blast and really loved the space, especially the kids! We rented a car in Naha and drive up the taking the scenic route up route 58 about an hour and 47 min drive. Can get there faster and in about an hour, but its a perfect launching point to head out make it to other areas of the north of the island, the Churaumi Aquarium, and we visited the Nakijin Castle ruins (both respectively amazing!). There were also many places to eat on the road and we found some good local spots nat far from the house, Shogun Burger and an Hawaiian Themed restaurant at the bottom of the hill! The house was the highlight of our AirBnB experience this year for sure! Definitely stay if your thinking about it, we hope to return!

The house is old Okinawan style, well maintained and nicely decorated. Rey is very environmentally concerned, which felt like a relief after almost a year spent in Tokyo. Finally Iriomote is wild and beautiful, a place where you can reconnect with Nature, its sounds and rhythm. I wish we could have stayed longer and hope to be back! Ps: We were there with 2 kids of 10 and 8yo, who loved the house which felt like a cabin.

Very quiet location, which exactly matched my expectations. Beach right in front of the house (but should be cleaned a bit).

Perfect for families: plenty of space filled with toys and a bunk bed decorated as a boat. Large dining table, and kitchen with all the essentials to cook with. Two large bedrooms that were comfortable and clean. Large parking space. Located in a very quiet neighbourhood by the beach. Cute coffee shops just a few minutes away (89 Coffee and Margiche Coffee x Bagel), and a couple of restaurants. Also equipped with an umbrella, cooler, and toys for your trips to the beaches on the island. Owner responds within minutes. Would rent again for our next trip!

The owner was very kind and polite, and provided a proper amount of strawberries and beer for free, the room was neat and had a small stone bathtub, and it was very nice to come back after skiing, it was very nice, the room, restroom, sleeping room, etc. were warm, the room price was also fair, we would stay in this accommodation again, thank you Ittoku for the hospitality!

Super responsive and accommodating. Cute little cabin in a great location. Thanks!

It was fully equipped, and unfortunately it started raining, but we had a lot of fun indoors. I'll use it again. Thank you very much.

The Airbnb was very clean and big, was very pleasant. The kitchen is equipped with some kitchen appliances, so you can cook great. Only some salt or spices would have been missing. The bathroom was really nice and the hot tub. The view of the balcony was also beautiful. Only downside was: It is a bit remote, it takes about 30 minutes to walk to the nearest supermarket and to rent a bike, we needed 50 minutes. All the appliances (kitchen, bathroom,...) are in Japanese so you have to deal with it until it works. I highly recommend Airbnb if you want to relax and look at Fuji. We will be happy to come back !

Our family of 8 spent a very unforgettable day in this very Japanese and innovative house... we were deeply attracted to the house as soon as we entered... we arrived a little late... but the owner still received us very warmly... and reminded us to be careful on the way... because it snowed at Yamanakako that day... our family's first experience with snow was here... we were really mesmerized by the beautiful snowy scenery... although we couldn't see Mt. Fuji, we still got a veryBeautiful snowy scenery... all the internet-famous check-in spots near Lake Yamanakako are very close... but this time we didn't have the chance to see the beautiful Mt. Fuji... I hope to have the chance to come to this house again in the future... and then enjoy the different scenery of Mt. Fuji... I highly recommend everyone to stay in this cozy and comfortable homestay... there will be a next time only if there is regret...

We liked it very much, we were received super warmly, could enter the house earlier, the breakfast is very delicious. We felt right at home. We had dinner cooked by Kaoru twice and enjoyed it very much! As an experience, this is highly recommended! Kaoru is a great cook and hostess and has a very nice family, whom we also got to know. What was great is that she gave us a lot of recommendations for things to do in the area, which we could benefit from. This will certainly not be our last time in this accommodation!

Patrick was always very responsive and helpful even he was note in Hakuba by that time when we were staying . The place is clean, comfortable and with a well equipped kitchen. The cottage is located in a convenient location, close to many restaurants and all local amenities. We were quite enjoyed in our stay and will definitely consider to come back again.

I stayed with 4 other people, but it was very spacious, clean, and a comfortable cottage. It was close to the station, and it was smooth getting to the main attractions from Kyukaruizawa to Oiwake. Thank you for a wonderful experience!

Really really great value for a nice space. Great location next to grocery store. Very kind and helpful host couldn’t be happier thank you so much !

Very nice accommodation with sea views. Our host was very welcoming to us. We hadn't noticed the lack of hotplates in our rental, but he kindly agreed to us using the kitchen of the café he runs nearby and even gave us some cooking tips! A very nice stay, worthy of the reputation of Japanese hospitality.
