Vacation rentals in Soraku District

I absolutely fell in love with this place. Junko was an incredibly kind and thoughtful host—she picked us up from the station when we arrived and even saw us off when we left. Staying here felt like living in the Japanese countryside in the most peaceful and poetic way. The home was beautiful, and Junko had prepared so many thoughtful recommendations and plans for us to enjoy during our stay such as walk routes, bike routes. Highly, highly recommend!

We had a lovely time. The hosts were so kind. They even gave us a gift bag at check out! I could tell they really enjoy hosting and that was so fun to see.

小さい子供（5歳、1歳）連れで宿泊させていただきました。周りは田畑に囲まれとても静かです。 全体の広さはちょうどよく、キッチンの使い勝手がとてもよかったです。 子供用の椅子やおもちゃもたくさん用意してくださり、楽しく過ごすことができました。ホストのハルさんも旦那さんもあたたかく迎えてくださり、細かいところまでお心遣いいただきました。 機会があればぜひまた利用させていただきたいです。 ありがとうございました。

A beautiful place that’s really right in the middle of the tea fields in Wazuka! Mao and Tomo and great hosts, but far more than hosts. We were family while we were here. Mao is an enthusiastic force and has unlimited energy. More than that - I had an injury while I was here (not on premises) that I needed to go to a hospital for, and Mao instantly responded to drive us to the right hospital all the way in Nara, waiting while they operated and making sure I was ok. She went above and beyond and moved way past the role of host to make sure I was ok. She cooked for us and drove us all around to show us the sights of the surrounding areas. We had a great week here and really felt the beauty and peace of Wazuka. Despite the injury we were able to have an amazing time here thanks to the compassion and care of the hosts.

My wife and I experienced Japanese matcha culture during this study trip, while staying at a very authentic Japanese guesthouse. The guesthouse not only retained traditional architectural styles but was also fully equipped with modern amenities. It allowed us to enjoy comfortable accommodation while feeling at one with nature. Daiki also prepared incredibly delicious Japanese meals for us. We look forward to staying here again on our next visit.

Maki is an exceptional host—incredibly prompt, easy to communicate with, and thorough in explaining everything about the house. The house itself is an amazing experience and exactly as the photos. It’s exceptionally spacious (for our party of 6), featuring a theater room that our kids absolutely loved and a study that my wife thoroughly enjoyed. It’s also well-stocked with amenities and a fully equipped kitchen, making our stay incredibly comfortable. The neighborhood is peaceful and secluded, which was exactly what we were looking for. While it can be a bit tricky to locate even with a rental car, it remains conveniently close to both Nara and Kyoto. If you’re looking for a memorable and unique stay in the area, I highly recommend this place!

What a beautiful traditional Japanese home to stay We totally loved the old house, beautiful decorations, the inner courtyard and our room. Everything was perfect! Chieri is a great host, we felt very welcomed and home right away. We were on a road trip, so we also enjoyed that we could wash our clothes. And we tried out the traditional japanese bath. Perfect! Chieri, thank you for everything! Hope to see you someday again!

とても綺麗で楽しく過ごせました。 なかなか大人数で泊まれる場所が無かったので有難かったです。 テレビも2台、ドライヤーも2台あったのでよかったです。 ありがとうございました。

Nuestra estancia fue excelente. La habitación de estilo japonés era muy bonita, con vistas al jardín, amplia. Cada detalle estaba muy cuidado. Tuvimos la suerte de conocer mejor a Ikuko y Michael. Acudimos a una ceremonia del té organizada por Ikuko que fue súper interesante, conforme con la tradición japonesa. Al día siguiente dimos una vuelta Michael, incluyendo visita guiada de una plantación de té, donde degustamos una gran variedad de tés en un ambiente realmente increíble. Los anfitriones son gente muy amable, acogedora e interesante. Muchísimas gracias por todo y hasta la próxima!
