Stay on an island in Setouchi and live like a local.

This is a small, private inn located in the middle of the Setouchi Shimanami Kaido, on Oshima Island, with the concept of "work and life".

It is used for sightseeing, swimming, fishing, training camps, etc. for families and groups. Also, it is located right in the middle of the cycling road, making it an ideal place to stay for cycling along the Shimanami Kaido.

KOYA, a coworking space, is a 1-minute walk away and is free to use.

The space
This is a private rental accommodation located right in the middle of Shimanami Kaido. There are 2 rooms, an LDK and a Japanese-style room. It can accommodate up to 5 people.
It is an old private house, but the interior has been completely renovated, so you can use it comfortably.

Meals and futons are self-style. There are only a few restaurants on the opposite side of the island (15 minutes by car), and they are not within walking distance of the accommodation. The supermarket is a 10-minute drive and the convenience store is a 5-minute drive away.

We can also cater food. (Please see the photos for details) Please message me if you'd like to use it.

Guest access
You can use the building, garden, and wooden deck.
There is also a parking lot that can accommodate 4 or more cars.

Other things to note
The bath has been renovated and is now ready for you to use comfortably. There are two hot spring facilities on the island, so please use them as well.

The nearest supermarket is about a 10-minute drive away. Please do your shopping early as it closes around 6 pm. The convenience store (5 minutes by car) is open 24 hours a day.

Where you’ll be

Imabari, Ehime-ken, Japan

Oomishima Space is located in the middle of the Shimanami Kaido Cycling Road. The east side of the island has a flat road, and it is a 5-minute bike ride from Tarama Ohashi.

It is a 2-minute walk to the sea, and there is also a fishing port where you can fish. There is also the Murakami Navy's sea castle, "Kanazaki Castle Ruins", nearby, which you can walk across at low tide during spring tides.

The sunrise rising from the calm Setouchi Sea is also beautiful.
There is nothing around the accommodation, but please relax and enjoy a walk while taking in the scenery of Setouchi, or Hyuuganatsu-bokko.

Where I went to school: 自由学園
My work: Web Engineer
I live on the island of Omishima, Imabari City, Ehime Prefecture, and my wife, my daughter, and Shiba Inu, who were born last year.I work as a web programmer and work remotely. Oshijima is an island located in the middle of the Shimanami Kaido, which connects Onomichi and Imabari. The Seto Inland Sea is calm, and the night sky is beautiful with stars. In order to let people know the goodness of Omishima, my husband and I spent a year renovating an empty house and creating an inn called Omishimaspace with a working space. Please come and visit Oshijima!
