Traditional Family Beach Villa for a Long Stay
There are some places that remind you why you love Airbnb — and Hiroki’s home in Chigasaki is one of them. A true gem: bright, beautifully designed, nestled beside a peaceful Japanese garden. Just steps away is a charming little café run by a kind and talented host, serving delicious meals. And the five bicycles provided? They allowed us to explore the town at our own pace, all the way to the nearby beach. Chigasaki is perfect for a few days of slow life, far from the hustle and bustle of Tokyo. Without a doubt, this is one of the best Airbnbs we’ve ever stayed in. A place we leave reluctantly, but that makes us want to come back.

A 5-minute walk from the sea, a Japanese-style inn with a rooftop terrace in Kamakura Hase
Kamakura has always been one of my favorite places in japan and this place has a really great location to explore this beautiful town.

A private house with a view of the sea
Good location close to the railway station, and a short walk to Enoshima. All of the basic accomodations you might need, besides laundry. If you have mobility issues, you may find it challenging to bring large or heavy luggage up to the unit.

Natural Breezy Kamakura II
Wonderful accommodation, lots of room, clean, great layout, near bus stops and 7-11. This was our second stay here and we hope to come back again.

VK301 Kamakura Ocean View Feat. in a PV/Unmanned
You have all what is needed and even more. There was coffee and tee, detergent for the washing machine and a lot of electronics gadgets. We can only recommend the place.

Kamakura Jomyoji Terrace | Private & Great Scenery
The place is very beautiful and feels like home. It’s very peaceful but also convenient to go visit other places. The host is very responsive and prepared many coffee and tea bags. One of the best hosts I have met!

[Entire house rental] Accommodates up to 4 people, 5-minute walk to Enoshima station, 380 m to the sea, supermarket nearby
I highly recommend this place! This place was stunning. The interior is clean and spacious. It has a very cool and sleek appearance. The amenities are great. It’s a very short walk to the beach and Enoshima island, where you can see Mt Fuji on a clear day! The bikes were AMAZING. We rode them all the way to Kamakura’s Komachi-dori. Also, the host was extremely nice and helpful!

Artist Studio : Nature : Architecture : 60m2
Michael was extraordinarily helpful before our arrival, answering questions quickly, offering suggestions, making it easy for us -- it's a lovely walk up from the station, and Michael's place faces out on a rice paddy ensuring quietude while being quite convenient to the area. The neighborhood is amazing, little shops, bakeries, coffee houses, and the historic temples in the area are beautiful. (My favorite is Tokei-ji, just about ten minutes walk away.) In the other direction is fantastic hiking, and you can go all the way to the Great Buddha in Hase. But if you are looking just for a place to hang out and relax, this place is perfect. It was such a beautiful space that one day we didn't go out at all! It's definitely a place to come back to! Thank you Michael!
