Visiting tips & what to bring

Located in a hilltop residential area, the roads are dark at night and footing needs care. Being a room-only, self-catering inn with no meal service, procuring ingredients and daily goods in advance at island supermarkets (Sarahama A-Coop, Shimoji Supermarket, etc.) is reassuring. Being simple-kitchen-centred, it is not suited to full-scale cooking for large groups. When using marine-gear rental, book and confirm stock in advance. Pets are allowed, but confirm the conditions when booking. As parking is for 1 car, consult in advance if visiting with multiple cars.

For families with small children

Being a 2-room condominium type with a kitchen, you can prepare baby food and child-friendly meals yourself, an easy-to-use inn for those with children aged 0 to 6. Pet-friendly and easy to stay at as a whole family, on the other hand it is in a hilltop residential area with dark night roads and the sea nearby, so care is needed not to take your eyes off small children. As there is no meal service, ingredient preparation is presumed.
