Naoshima – Sumarbústaðir

Paula Brasilía

Where do I even begin? Our stay at this hotel was nothing short of spectacular! From the moment we arrived, we were greeted with warmth and hospitality that exceeded all expectations. The hosts went above and beyond to ensure every aspect of our stay was perfect, from picking us up at the station to assisting with bicycle rentals and even surprising us with a reservation at a fantastic restaurant at night. And the thoughtful gesture of a gift for our honeymoon was truly touching. The morning was just as delightful, with the hosts seamlessly organizing our tickets, making our experience effortless and enjoyable. As for the accommodations, they were simply divine. The house itself was spacious and charming, offering a cozy retreat after a day of exploration. The abundance of food and amenities in the bathroom added an extra layer of comfort, making us feel right at home. In short, we couldn't have asked for a more welcoming and comfortable stay.

Great location, 4mins from the ferry, the host was very welcoming and warm. The beds were very comfy and it was cozy sleeping together in the same room. Everything was really clean, highly recommend this place!

The host is very kind and gave us a ride to a bike rental shop after checking in and to the port after check out.

I fell in love with this house. It was incredible. Everything I imagined a traditional Japanese style home to be. Plenty of space. A calming aesthetic. Quality home. A lot of outdoor space which must be wonderful in good weather. Plenty of heating. Plenty of blankets. Pyjamas supplied. I wish I could live there - that’s how beautiful it is. I am so grateful for the chance to stay here. Good value for the space. Also, I have to thank the hosts for being so kind, warm and friendly in their communication and for being so generous and helpful. This would be an ideal base for exploring Naoshima. I walked to Uno Port in 30 mins, but without backpack it could be quicker. Probably there is a bus but I didn’t look. It felt so nice staying in a town not routinely visited by tourists. After the crowds of Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka etc this was a welcome respite and a chance to slow down and see a small town, real life.

This perfectly preserved traditional japanese house proved to be the perfect housing for our stay exploring Teshima and Naoshima. Alan, the host, proved to be invaluable in his recommendations about how to best visit the islands. He also gave us tasty addresses for lunch and dinner and even drove us there at night. We think the villa is the perfect setting for a family, it provided us for a welcome respite during our very busy 2 weeks in Japan. We rented bikes and thanks to them, we were able to crisscross Teshima although your youngest son is only 10. Alan not only welcomed us right at the ferry arrival but was always in touch with us before and during the stay. 10/10 ! (The sister villa "Queen" looks very nice too)
