We had a large apartment with all modern facilities provided for 7 days. We were on the 10th floor with a wrap around balcony which gave us 280 degree views of the ocean, Kii Mountains and Shirahama town. The complex is very new so all accessories were in very good order. The bath for a Japanese facility was very large and thus used often. We chose this apartment complex because of it's location to the beach, supermarket and onsens. We especially enjoyed being able to cook for ourselves and everything necessary for that was provided.

I enjoyed the family room as a solo traveler, plenty of space and the heating was good for me. I chose to stay here because it was too expensive to do temple stay during New Year holiday. The staff were so helpful and the food at the attached restaurant/cafe was delicious^^ I'd love to come back and stay here on my next visit to Koyasan. Very close to bus stop for convenient transport to the top attractions in the town.

Amazing place to stay, extremely recommended. A really great experience in general - I stayed in one of the suites and could not have asked for a more relaxing and peaceful place to stay, only a short walk from Okunoin Cemetary and an easy walk to the rest of town. Very close to the bus stop from Koyasan Station. Staff were always helpful and the meals were unbelievably delicious and satisfying, even though I needed to ask for a soy-free modification. The best food I ate during my stay!

The owner is a great person and welcomes you with a smile, laughter and positivity. The facilities are very nice and somehow fit this small town very well. I slept well in my bunker bed for two nights. The location is only a few minute walk from Kii-Katsuura station and a 2 minute walk to the bus stop to Nachi waterfalls. Its also just a 10 minute walk to the harbour where you can take a boat to explore the BEAUTYFUL rocks in the ocean and to the left of that is a very nice beautiful walk along the ocean.

Aki-San is an excellent host and went out of his way to help plan our kumano kodo route, and also arrange our luggage transfer. We really liked all the small conveniences in the property, such as additional accessories provided in the shower area. The room and location were both comfortable and convenient.

The dinner and breakfast were wonderful, and very carefully prepared. The room was a beautiful traditional-style one, with tatami and futon. The staff were all extremely helpful and kind, and we were even able to purchase some charms. The public bath was very clean and well-kept, and it was interesting to experience it. Thank you for a lovely stay!

What an amazing experience! Friendly and welcoming staff, well maintained and spotless clean traditional japanese room. Using the onsen is very relaxing in the evening after the vegetarian dinner full of unknown tastes and consistencies. Taking part of the morning meditation is highly recommended. It was a great place to stay and have a local experience in Japan. Koyasan is not too crowded which makes it wonderfull.

Dinner was fantastic. Our room was really clean and spacious. The staff gave me a chair in our room and at meals as I am six months pregnant which was so kind, as I could not sit on the floor. The gardens and buildings were beautiful. Good location and easy to catch nearby buses to the cemetery and station. Made it back no stress after the night tour.
