Guest Reviews
- SHOHUN (9/5): 友達や親戚同士が気兼ねなく、食事と会話が楽しめます - 古民家の空間が広く、落ち着きます。天井が高く、梁など太い木が使われています。友人同士で食事を作って、食事をいただきながら、会話が弾みます。
お風呂が広く、サウナもあります。外もすぐに海岸があり、夕焼けと日の出を観れます。
- KOZUE (9/5): 雰囲気◎ - 古民家の雰囲気を楽しみつつ設備は最新で快適に過ごせました。 バスタブにお湯を張った後にどこで体を洗えば良いのか分からず、一旦離れたシャワー室で体を洗ってシャンプーしてから戻ってバスタブにつかりました。どうするのが正解だったのか..🤔?
サウナを利用してみたかったのですがやり方が分からず残念..
- みきぼん (8/5): お籠り感満載 - 海が歩いてすぐなのですぐ見にいける。
トイレが部屋ごとにあるのはよかった。
問題があってもすぐに連絡がつき解決できる。
薄暗いのが、好きな人は落ち着く。 エアコンばかりなのでとても乾燥する。
ホットカーペットを持っていってよかった。
フライパンのテフロンが剥げていて使えなかった。
メインのお風呂場のシャワーがバスタブに着いていて、一人はいるごとにお湯を抜かないといけないのは面倒。
また汚れたバスタブにお湯をはるのは気分がよくない。
- Aina (10/5): -
- Stephanie (10/5): This was the perfect end to our trip in Japan. We only stayed one night but wished we had stayed more. - Location was amazing. The pillows.
- Robert (10/5): Beautifully restored old, spacious and luxurious beach house. - This house is just stunningly beautiful. More than 100 years old, and perfectly restored. Wooden beams, the scent of tatami and cedar wood, sliding doors. and lots of space. It has all the facilities one could possibly wish for: kitchen, several bathrooms, laundry, hot tub, sauna. It's sheer luxury.
The beach is just 2 minutes from your doorstep, and a bus can take you back to the centre of Kamakura (or you can go for a 20 minute walk). Around the corner is a pleasant breakfast/lunch cafe.
The friendly owner, Tadao, was very accommodating; he was waiting for us when we arrived a bit earlier than check-in time, and gave us a guiding tour around the house.
- 長井 (10/5): - 清潔でとても心地よく宿泊できました。(ベッドの寝心地が最高でした)
住宅街ですが静かな環境でよかったです。 私は気にならないですが、大きい車で来る方は近所のパーキングをお勧めします。
- Shoko (8/5): -
- Saori (8/5): -
- Yano (9/5): -
- Maiko (10/5): 素晴らしい! - オーナー様が質問があるたびに電話対応をしてくださり、有り難かったです。広々と清潔、海まで1分、エリアも素敵で本当に素晴らしかったです。 無いです。
- MASATO (9/5): 過ごしやすかった。海など景色を観に来た目的に利用しやすかった。 - 広々としていて
色味が落ち着いているのが自分には
合っていました。 ごく小さな虫が一部トイレに複数いました。
- Lisa (10/5): Lovely, beachy vibe in a friendly neighborhood. - This as a very chill place to stay, very close to the beach, and friendly businesses. It was spacious ( three bathrooms!) and the shower has incredible water pressure.
The neighborhood was so fun. There are great restaurants, including one Michelin star French place that was incredible. We just walked in without reservations and had a wonderful meal.
We also frequented the restaurants facing the beach, which were super convenient and good. There’s a great bus system in Kamakura with stops right near the accommodations. The host arranged our taxi on the last day which took us to the train station in Ofuna, where we took the Narita Express directly to the Narita airport. We were able to avoid Tokyo all together, which was our goal. It was a little damp inside but this is just because it’s so close to the beach and Kamakura is very humid.
- Remy (10/5): Perfection if you're looking for a beachy holiday - The house is at a perfect location in Kamakura. 1 minute walk from the beach, easy to rend surf boards nearby, not too close to the main road so luckily not noisy, many restaurants around the corner, 20 minute walk from the city center, etc. But even better, the house is huge, beautifully designed and has everything one can think of and more (kitchen, whirlpool, sauna, 2 bathrooms, etc)! Also, these are the best beds I've slept on during my multiple Japan trips (definitely worth noting). Nothing but great words to say about Amber.
- 松代 (10/5): -
- Marie-Solenne (10/5): Perfect ! - L’emplacement est parfait, proche de la mer, avec des petits restaurants locaux en bord de plage.
Logement atypique qui nous plonge très bien dans l’ambiance japonaise. Je recommande !
- Sayaka (9/5): -
- Thorsten (10/5): -
- Ross (10/5): - My wife and I wanted to “slow travel” for a few days and found this place on VRBO. It’s a 100-yr old traditional coastal home.
It is directly across the road (there is a convenient tunnel under the road) from Zaimokuza and Yuigahama beaches and there is a bus stop right outside the door for a 15 min ride to/from Kamakura Station. The #40 bus is reliable and easy. Don’t bother with a taxi.
It is also a 15-min walk to the Enoden train, which follows the coastline and goes to Hase and Enoshima for access to the area’s famous o-teras, shopping, etc.
The home has been thoughtfully renovated to include modern air conditioning, bathrooms, kitchen appliances, etc. It is set up well for beach/surfing getaways, with areas in the genkan to rinse off sand, wash/hang up wet clothes—even a sauna.
It is a traditional Japanese home with one main room that can be divided by pull down shades into sleeping areas—one area with a double bed and another with two twin beds. The beds are good quality and not futons. Bathrooms are private with walls and doors.
We visited in July, with temperatures >90 degrees F, >80% humidity, and some thunderstorms. The home was comfortable throughout our stay.
The area is charming, the people are friendly to us, and the atmosphere was laid back. We would definitely stay here again.
- Zuzana (9/5): tradičký dom v blízkosti láže - Veľmi pekný typický domček, mal niekoľko kúpeľní a toaliet, dobre lokalizovaný pri pláži, cca 15min pešo od centra. V blízkosti bary ako aj možnosti na raňajky. Jednoduchý check in, dobrá komunikácia Dom trochu tmavý, žiadne súkromie, keďže miestosti sú od seba oddelené len paravanom a roletami
- Xuan (8/5): - Spacious, clean and enough washrooms Some places are dusty
- Jessica (10/5): Best accommodation I’ve staying in in Japan - We were so comfortable here! Didn’t want to leave. After the hustle and bustle of the big cities this place has healed our souls. I would highly recommend staying here and I would love to return. The boat is also very kind and accommodating
- Belynda (10/5): Perfect vacation home near beach. - This place is a treasure. So spacious and great for a family with 2 teenagers. Steps from the beach, and several cafes and restaurants. A bus stops near by to take you to the main hub where you can go anywhere. I wish we could have stayed longer. That I can’t live there forever.
- Kevin (10/5): Super cool house just steps from the beach - We had an amazing time staying at the Amber house in Zaimokuza. The amenities were excellent, the house has all kitchenware stocked, and the parking spot right out front was very convenient and fit our rental SUV. It is a little tricky pulling in/out of the narrow driveway but one of the neighbors came and helped us. The beach is just steps away (look for the underpass walkway, don't cross the road) and also close to the Drop-In Cafe for great lattes. We would love to come back some day!
- Jakkarin (10/5): Big beach house -- cool Japanese style - The house is beautiful. It reminds us of the old Japanese house from the movie. It's very big and wisely planned. We're a family of four and it doesn't feel crowded at all. It's perfect if you come with family or a big group of friends. The house is right next to the beach. It gives a real feel of being in Kamakura.
- Eryn (10/5): Exceptional -
- Emily (10/5): Exceptional -
- Benjamin (10/5): We really enjoyed it -- my friend who lives in the neighboring town of Zushi was also impressed. - This is the perfect beach house. The outer part of the house has a lower floor to keep your (dirty) shoes and/or sandy feet apart from the clean upper floor. All the amenities are there -- excellent bathrooms and kitchen, good size table.
There is a jacuzzi hot tub as well. We had some trouble locating the place, though this is mostly our lack of familiarity with Japan, and probably because our smart phones are not so smart. In Japan, the roads are not named, which makes locating an address a little difficult . We finally relied on the longitude/latitude coordinates to find the house -- thanks to the host Tadao for providing those coordinates.
- Jason (10/5): Exceptional -
- Olivia (10/5): Highly recommend! Very well maintained traditional Japanese house right on the beach. Facilities were very high quality. - Decor was very slick and cool. Beds very comfortable. Traditional old school Japanese house set up, so great if you want to experience this. Had a great vibe in the evening enjoying a drink at the table. Excellent restaurant at the end of the street that serves delicious local home cooked cuisine. Beach very close. Nothing.
- Luc (10/5): - Everything was awesome!
- Adams (9/5): Right by beach and renovated Japanese traditional house but need some improvement for linens cleaning - Spacious and nicely renovated traditional Japanese house right by beach Quite distance from station or any nearby convenience store. Also bed and linens had odor
- Francois (9/5): Superb -
- Kawakami (9/5): Superb -
- Kayuet (10/5): Exceptional - Nice architecture More soundproofing between the two rooms
- Sue (10/5): Our host met us when we got off the bus and explained everything. It was a pleasant place to stay. - The host met us at the apartment and explained how everything worked, he was very friendly and helpful.
It was close to the beach
It was close to places to eat.
Handy to public transport
Plenty of bathrooms for all of us
Easy to walk to where we needed to go There wasn't really anywhere to hang your clothes to dry, unless you opened the front windows, which faced a laneway where people walked past. So not secure to leave these windows open if you went out.
- Lida (10/5): Exceptional - Thanks A LOT. Great stay and very comfortable. Only the key instruction a bit misleading and our neighbor girls also made the same mistakes as we did - the old big key there is a misleading.😂 Anyway,, every details worth a big 👍👍
- BIENVENIDO (10/5): - Close to the beach- basically walk across the street and you’re there! We had a 8-passenger van… and we fit in the parking spot.
- Adeline (10/5): Great location - Superb location & host met us late at night.
- Deepa (9/5): Superb - Nice decor, fully equipped with all facilities needed, 1 minute walk to the beach.
- rie (10/5): - Clean and spacious. We loved the place!
- Liam (10/5): A truly beautiful place to spend your time in Kamakura 🇯🇵 - The location was exceptional! A truly beautiful home to stay in, designed beautifully. Our family of 5 stayed here very comfortably. Highly recommend.
- Wendi (10/5): WOULD DEFINITELY RECOMMEND AND HOPE TO STAY AGAIN! - First - the bus stop to arrive at AMBER basically drops you off within a couple hundred feet! LOVED THIS KOMINKA! Felt at home. Was roomy, comfortable, great location, more than enough restrooms, minimal in design. Perfect! Great Value. Host was responsive and helpful! Assumed the washing machine was a combo washer/dryer - did a load and ended up having to hang my clothes overnight. Not a big deal - but worth noting.
- Santina (9/5): A unique experience, a discovery at every corner - Fantastic view of Mount Fuji early in the morning on the right side behind the bay, 100 meters walk from the house. The beach is at 50 meters. Beautiful sunset on the sea. Surf and SUP for rent everywhere along the beach, including wetsuit high quality. Kamakura is an amazing place and the house is walking distance from many stunning temples. Daibutsu hiking trail from the big Buddha statue to Tsurugaoka shrine was amazing. Cherry Blossom on the main street goes on for hundreds of meters.
Tadao was an extremely welcoming, efficient, clear, and kind host for Amber house.
- Laura (10/5): Exceptional -
- Verified traveler (8/5): おしゃれな古民家Stay - 宿泊施設の目の前に車を横付けして駐車する必要がありますが、道がとにかく狭く、道は行き止まりなので、Uターンをするのも一苦労、大きな車は要注意です。
設備はとてもきれいに整えられています。
冷蔵庫があちらこちらにあります(笑)。
12月末だったので広くて吹き抜けの施設の空調が心配でしたが、業務用エアコンがついています。
また、電気ヒーターやホットカーペットも有り暖かく過ごせました。
海は徒歩1分程度、朝日、夕日と両方楽しめました。
富士山も綺麗に見えました。
- Verified traveler (10/5): - お部屋はとてもきれいな上に、トイレ3つ、シャワー2つにお風呂と、9人が過ごしても何不自由なく過ごせました。
また、備え付けのキッチン用品や調味料も充実しており、また機会があれば是非利用したいです!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - 満足です!!!!!!!!!
- ナカタカ (8/5): - 駐車場を改善してほいしい
- Rie (10/5): Renovated Japanese House - Perfect for our family. Felt clean and safe.
- TOMOKO (10/5): 素敵な古民家 - とても清潔でいい雰囲気でした。
入浴設備、トイレの数と位置全て使い勝手よく居心地がよかったです。
- KRISAKORN (8/5): - The house was very very good , beautiful, full function. Lane to get into house is quite narrow.
