Our vacation homes are a little different than most in that we can host large groups and aim to provide the amenities and comforts guests might expect from a ryokan inn or hotel. So, our list of amenities and household goods is extensive. We hope our manual helps our guests familiarize themselves with our lodging prior to their stay.

CONCEPT

"Socializing and connecting" is our goal for the experience we provide our guests. We always keep this in mind as we continually improve our lodging services and facilities.

Even though the modern Japanese elegance of Mitsuba House is quite a contrast to the Japanese folk essence of Kiyomizu House, for both we choose decor that is inviting, comfortable and practical.

It is our goal to have our guests have all the detailed amenities they may need while having iconic Japanese traditional arts and household goods in every part of the house. Whether our guests live in Japan or have traveled from overseas, we want them to feel immersed in Japanese culture during their stay and leave feeling a little closer to traditional Japan.
