Villa Hamorebi

We are so glad we stayed at this property during our trip to Miyajima. The villa itself is so spacious and beautiful, it exceeded our expectations. Check in was smooth and property managers were easily accessible at all times.

The bungalow was even better than the photos depicted. It was big and luxurious with all sorts of unexpected amenities (complimentary liquor, fantastic skin products. I LOVED the outdoor bath). The staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating.

It would have been wonderful if there were instructions in English for the many technical amenities throughout the house. It was quite cool at night and while I am sure there was heat, I had no idea how to turn it on so I had to layer up with additional clothes. Also as the bath was outside under the trees, when I got back the second night looking forward to a bath I found it was full of leaves that I had to scoop out myself. I would’ve expected for the price that they would’ve come in and scooped out the leaves. Also, they did not replenish coffee or tea from one day to the next.

Absolutely gorgeous self contained villa. Comfortable bed, good shower, lovely outdoor bath. Well stocked self service bar. Simple check in at the ryokan down the hill - friendly service, a great dinner and a good breakfast. Just lovely. I would love to stay here for a week or more.

Nothing. Everything was perfect.

We were greeted and shown around by a lovely lady, and a deer welcomed us by the front door. The place was very cozy and clean. After climbing Mt. Misen, it was wonderful to relax in the outdoor bath.

Nothing.

The location is very quiet, even during the day, and you can feel nicely secluded in the woods above the streets. The open-air onsen (hot tub) was small but hot and plenty big for a couple (unless you’re very tall) - during the chilly night it was absolutely delightful. Check-in was easy and the host really playful and sweet. We paid for the Japanese breakfast and it was fabulous, served at the host’s nearby hotel.

The price is high, even by Japan standards. For us it was a splurge, but well worth it!

Space, peace and quiet in an immaculately kept house. Friendly host near by who cooked us a beautiful meal. Lovely outside bath. Beautifully clean property.

We lacked some basic kitchen items like bowls and utensils. We struggled to understand the bath heating instructions; please provide an English translation.
