ATASHIKADAYS Kumano-Kodo Beachfront B&B Hostel

The property was immaculate and had everything we needed. Hisashi was an exceptional host, always accommodating and greeting us with a warm smile!

Kind host, delicious and healthy food, great nature

I like everything.

Everything. But to the point. This is a great spot if you want to do kumano kodo iseshi route. The scene is to die for. But weirdly during my time zero people come here. Lol. So picture say the best. And enjoy the picture. The owner give us access whole house and he is owner for orange farm which have one of the best oranges as well.

Nothing

We really enjoyed staying at Hisashi’s place. The apartment is perfect for couples or families. It is very clean, spacious, and comfortable. It is carefully renovated with a lot of care for Japanese traditional houses. The futons were very comfortable and the breakfast with delicious bred and juice was just perfect. The village itself is definitely worth a visit. It is very relaxed and still offers everything you need. Supermarket, restaurant and especially a great beach just in front and beautiful nature. We were warmly welcomed and immediately felt like being at home. We definitely recommend to book dinner if possible. Food is amazing here.

Staying at this Atishika Bay beach house was perhaps one of our favourite stays in two weeks of touring the Kii Pennisula by car. We stayed for one night during the downtime season (March) while things were quieter, and that suited our temperament having just toured the Kumano Kodo Senzan. The owner's concept of this dwelling is to provide a simple and humble beachside retreat in which guests can while the days in relaxed manner. The house has everything provided for, and there are thoughtful personal touches: fresh orange juice from the owner's orchid; a list of recommended places to eat, places to walk the Kumano Kodo Isije route, and other nearby attractions; and books and art adding character to the rooms. The charm is in its very local, low-key, unpretentious, and community feeling.

Although this type of accommodation may not be to everyone's taste, the owner's welcome, and the care and attention to the simple beach house design was perfect for us/me.
