"Wooden single-story house with a view of the sea" ~ Sky, sea, wood, and wind ~ (There is a discount for repeat guests)

I built a small house with the idea of creating a simple life in harmony with nature in Okinawa. There are no screens to feel the wind, so birds also fly into the house. You can enjoy a walk to the beach where sea turtles come to lay eggs, the fisherman's island, the sugar cane field, the Okinawa soba shop, the eatery, and the pottery shop. I usually live here, so there is a sense of living, but I hope you can slowly enjoy the sense of living that flows alongside Okinawa, including that. Feel free to explore the garden, which currently has vegetables in the field, and Okinawan herbs such as Chinese chives, purslane, Choumeisou, butterfly pea, and lemongrass. ∆ Be careful with the hub! Geckos, frogs, birds. Insects. They all live together and sometimes come into the house. Please refrain from booking if you are not good with them. If you are a☺️ repeat guest, we will give you a discount, please let us know
