Quan ~ Japanese Room ~ Ocean View & Sunset from Private Sauna & Terrace

From the room, you can see the sea that changes its expression every hour, and the sunset can be enjoyed by the sun. Moonlight art in the room also creates a living and dining room as a gentle light. After the sauna where the facility boasts, I recommend a Japanese-style room (2F) and a natural bath on the terrace where you can relax and enjoy the luxury of doing nothing. After the rescheduling time, you can also have a BBQ or a meal with the host as you like! The retreat and spiritual fulfillment at this facility lead to a true sense of well-being. * Sauna is available for a separate fee. ✴︎ The photos of the entire inn show that the rooms are connected on the surface, but each room has its own entrance, so you can enjoy your stay in a [single building rental]. ★ Notes regarding children's accommodation (12 years old or younger) Because the facility is a wooden building, the structure is such that sound easily travels to the next room. There is no handrail on the stairs in the guest room. Please be careful as the railing on the second floor balcony is wide. In front of the terrace on the ground floor is a cliff. Please understand this when booking for children 12 years of age or younger.

Shodoshima, 30 seconds to the sea, you can see the sea from any room

This house is located on the quiet seaside of Shodoshima Town. It is a house built just to watch the sunset over the sea. Unfortunately, we have a lot of stairs on the terrace, so it's not barrier free. (I will do my best to help with your luggage, etc.) However, at the top of the high terrace, the calm and beautiful sea of Setouchi, sparkling with sunlight, and the changing faces of the crimson sunset await you every day. Please enjoy an extraordinary time and forget about the time. You enter the room by climbing the terrace stairs. It is not barrier free. Please be sure to have an adult accompany you when going up and down stairs with small children. Also, there are many stairs on rainy days, so it may be inconvenient. Also, the road in front of the inn is not paved. Please note that this may cause some inconvenience. There are many insects because there is a lot of nature around the house. Insects may enter when windows or doors are opened or closed. (Especially at night, insects gather in the light of the inn) We are very sorry, but please refrain from staying if you don't like insects.
