Aya Papaya

This guesthouse is located right in the center of Kumano Hongu. Only 3 minute walk from Kumano Hongu Taisha shrine. Restaurants, shops, post office, ATM, bus terminal and information center are all within 5 minute walk. An old house had been renovated into a modern Japanese and western mixed style. So it looks Japanese traditional style still but there are big couch and beds so you can relax like you are at home. We have a big TV, you can watch movies, Netflix. And we have full kitchen so you can cook. Please just make yourself at home.

I used to travel around the world as a backpacker. Somehow I ended up here in Hongu, Wakayama and started my own guesthouse. I would love to meet and host travelers from all over the country!
