ようこそ熊野へ! 世界中の旅人の皆さまに、安心して快適にお過ごしいただけるよう、心を込めてお迎えいたします。 私自身、長年にわたり国内外でさまざまな場所を訪れてきましたが、豊かな自然と深い歴史が息づく熊野に強く惹かれ、2024年に移住を決意しました。熊野には、まだあまり知られていない秘境や絶景スポットが数多くあり、その魅力を世界中の方々にお伝えしたいと考えています。 皆さまの滞在が快適で、心に残るものとなるようサポートいたします。熊野でお会いできるのを楽しみにしています!
当ゲストハウスは、世界遺産「花の窟神社」と美しい海岸線「七里御浜」まで徒歩約1分。神話と自然が息づく熊野を存分に感じられる絶好のロケーションです。熊野古道伊勢路へのアクセスも良く、歴史ある巡礼道を気軽に体験できます。 徒歩圏内にはコンビニや海鮮レストランなども揃い、滞在中の食事にも便利です。 さらに、熊野市周辺にはあまり知られていない秘境や観光客の少ない絶景スポットが数多くあります。当ゲストハウスでは、それらを効率よく巡れるオーダーメイドの少人数制ツアーをご用意。行き先のアレンジも可能で、自由度の高い旅が楽しめます。
