Family-friendly vacation rentals in Sea of Japan

The area was lovely, and very close to the train station. The house had everything we needed and Masa was an amazing host! He met us at the station to guide us to the suite, helped us get situated, and was only a text away if we needed anything. Amenities were provided, and there were restaurants, grocery stores, and convenience stores nearby for anything else.

Really lovely stay! It was very clean. Many towels, pillows, blankets were provided. It was a fairly quiet area. The air conditioning was great. Would recommend this location if you are trying to stay closer to Gion. It is further from the train station, but everything is pretty spread out in Kyoto.

I honestly don’t know where to begin. Staying in Keiko’s home was truly one of the greatest honors of our time in Japan—it was a highlight of the entire trip. From the moment we walked through her door, we were immersed in Japanese culture. Keiko greeted us with warmth and kindness, making us feel immediately at home. She patiently guided us through everything, showing us how to use her space with care and respect. Her home is a reflection of her spirit—graceful, serene, and full of beauty. I was deeply moved and inspired by her presence and generosity. Being invited to take part in her traditional Japanese tea ceremony was an experience I will never forget. She took the time to teach us the rituals and meaning behind each step, explaining everything with such clarity and heart. She dressed us in beautiful kimonos, carefully helping us put them on the correct way. Drinking matcha that was pure and fresh—words fail me. It was unlike anything I’ve ever tasted. Truly unforgettable. The

Thanks to the very friendly and kind Mr. Kuruishi, it was a fun and fulfilling trip to Teshima.The welcome drink of lime tea and the colorful and nutritious breakfast were very delicious.I was very happy with the surprise farewell at the ferry station on the way back and the souvenir.Thank you very much.

The house is very beautiful, the scenery is first-class, it is fully equipped, I want to stay a few more days next time

We had a truly wonderful experience staying at Amane and Takashi's place. It was absolutely beautiful—peaceful, relaxing, and clearly created with care. From the moment we arrived, their thoughtful touches made us feel incredibly welcome. Communication was excellent throughout, and they were always available with helpful advice and kind guidance. Amane and Takashi are genuinely lovely people—gracious, warm, and considerate hosts. We left feeling refreshed and very grateful. Highly recommended!

Lovely space! Provided so many amenities free of charge (water, slippers, cotton pads, etc.) which was very helpful! In a more peaceful area of kyoto with plenty of restaurants around and walkable to many places

there were many things we were worried about as a group of 6 adults with 2 toddlers for a 3 night stay, but they were all put to rest once we were here. we were worried that hida was too sleepy vs takayama. after visiting both, hida felt more intimate with more locals, but still things to do and restaurants all walkable. we weren't sure about the parking, but we had a spot for our large van that was perfect. we were worried about there being 1 toilet and 1 shower, but they are independent and there is a separate mirror and sink as well so our group with 4 women still were able to get themselves together effectively. we were worried about the Japanese beds, but they were comfortable and even better than many European beds we have visited. lack of a couch and tv, but there is a room with floor seating around a table with a projector that our whole group enjoyed and spent a good amount of time in. Kohei made great restaurant recommendations too. kohei's place was our favorite segment!

We had a great time!! The house is exceptional, even more beautiful than in the photos. Japanese immersion guaranteed. And the host was really great and very very kind. Thanks a lot for a great week-long stay!

We stayed at Toshie’s designer house for 4 nights. The architecturally fantastic home is in a quiet neighbourhood a short busride from Gakuenmae station, with quick train access to Nara, Kyoto and Osaka. Toshie picked us up from the station, which was appreciated as it might have been tricky to find the house ourselves. She gave us instructions for local transport and amenities within walking distance. Toshie is an exceptional host who is genuinely interested in her guests making sure they have an enjoyable stay. During our visit we needed medical attention and Toshie was extremely helpful with taking us to the hospital and pharmacy. We felt very safe having her as a translator. One night we were able to join Toshie and her husband for dinner and also met their daughter who has a ceramics studio in the house. Thank you Toshie for your hospitality, kindness and generosity. We had an absolutely wonderful time. I highly recommend this house for a unique base to explore the Nara area.

First experience at a traditional Japanese house and I loved it. The location is ideal, close to the beach and shops nearby. Kensuke is very nice.

Nice house in a quiet neighborhood. Location gives fantastic access to the city through the Green Line (Karasuma). Easy to access from Kyoto Station shinkansen. Less than ten minute walk to the Aeon Mall. All facilities in working order. The washing machine is very useful in extending the usefulness of your carried clothing.

This is just the best place to stay. Beautiful surroundings provide detailed interior facilities and entertainment. I was surprised by the delicacy of the audio system, such as Siemens Maranz, and the surprising number of CDs to listen to. It was a very precious experience to spend two days in a place that made me want to live in beautiful Yeosu.

This was out favorite stay while we were in Japan. The hosts are amazing and super responsive and the house has everything you could possibly need. The separate washer and dryer was awesome and worked perfectly for our family. We ended up cooking breakfast in, as the kitchen is well equipped with everything you needed including coffee and sugar! It was nice to be out of the hustle and bustle of central Kyoto but walkable to the river, Monkey Park, temples, shops, and restaurants. If this spot is available, don't hesitate and book it!

The co-host girl is very polite and welcoming, and the house courtyard is beautiful.There are supermarkets and vending machines at the door, and there are many restaurants on the street in front. Although it is not within a few streets, it is quiet and not crowded.

I was very satisfied!The host was very kind and check-in was smooth.The room was clean and stylish as shown in the photos, and I felt at home.It is fully equipped with a kitchen, washing machine, and other amenities you need for your stay, making it perfect for long-term stays.It was very helpful because I was carefully informed about the sightseeing spots and recommended restaurants in the area.I'd love to stay again!

The place was so pretty! The accommodation information text was sent in detail, so it was convenient to find and use the accommodation! The property is close to the East Sea, so it's in a very convenient location to go to the restaurants, prop shops, and the sea in Jongdal-ri!! The host even sent a text message to guide us to the hot water pool time, and we were able to spend a warm and fun time! I had a good rest in a warm and comfortable space😊

Thank you Nam for such a great place! The interior of the house is clean, the surroundings are very beautiful, and it is great for people who want a relaxing vacation to visit!

10 people had a very good time. The view was cool, and there were a lot of things provided, so I used it conveniently. I'll come again next time. ^^

Very quiet & nice place. 😄

They also prepared wine and took care of even the smallest details, so I rested very comfortably. From the way, it's pretty, and even if you just drink coffee on the terrace while listening to the birds, the scenery is as good as healing.

It was a very lovely stay, very responsive and helpful. The place is stunning and it was in the perfect location. Wish to stay there forever. Definitely recommend this place. 🫶🏽

Amazing Airbnb with pool and sauna. Super private and quiet area. Beautiful typical Japanese interior with a luxury touch. The host is very friendly and communication was easy. We would love to come visit again.

Hayeon is very responsive to messages, the place is beautiful. We managed to get there and get there by public transport but the ideal is still to have a car. Thanks again, everything was perfect
