Staying in this property while hiking Kumano Kodo has been the highlight of our trip so far. Strongly recommended to people with an interest in traditional Japan! Host was friendly, we went to his yakitori restaurant for dinner and it was lovely as well.

The level of service was simply outstanding! From the moment we arrived (not quite dressed for any occasion, after a hefty day hike in pouring rain), to the moment we left, the staff was extremely helpful. When we found out late in the evening our planned train connection wasn't available after all, they helped us find an alternative and offered bento boxed breakfast, only to come knocking on our door 5min later when they thought of an even better option by driving us to a bus stop a few villages away early the morning. Special thanks to Tak from the front desk! Dinner and breakfast were also an exciting culinary journey :-)

The villa has an amazing view across the rice paddies to the Tori gate and then down to the river. The town has all you need to either self cater or eat out and the villa had everything we needed to drink our wine on the verandah and cook our Wagu steaks. Lots of condiments provided for us to do this. We enjoyed being able to have a meal at home and the area is worth staying an extra day or so. We only stayed one night and wished we could have stayed longer.

Guesthouse Yui

I was so fortunate to choose Guesthouse Yui to spend over a week doing Kumano Kodo and stay for Christmas. I used it as a base to walk the Nakahechi route, catching the bus to/from the trail each day, as required. Staying at Guesthouse Yui made all this much easier and more enjoyable. The owner-operator Sanae-san is such a welcoming and caring host. She made my stay like a home-away-from-home. I had the tatami room nearest the entrance which was spacious, clean and warm. I made use of the common area for writing, emailing, watching TV. I was fortunate to be there during a slower time which made it not so busy, apparently. Regardless, Sanae-san put on a hot pot for 4 of us guests one night which was superb. The shower/bath facilities at the guesthouse are very good but I didn't use these much as there is an excellent community public bath a 5 minute walk away (and only 200 yen!). Mad if you don't use it. Kumano Hongo Taisha bus stop and the "town centre" is a 5 minute walk away. Here the dining options are good but very few. Sanae provides full use of the kitchen with stove, rice cooker, microwave etc if you want to cook. She also provides basic items such as beer, packet rice etc to purchase. I highly recommend Iwatani-san's Ramen restaurant on Monday and Tuesday nights, and Miyazushi the other nights.

I hope nothing ever changes in this Ryokan. It was a really special place to stay. The Onsen is so beautiful and the hotel itself is full of character. The meals were incredible each morning and evening. The staff were so welcoming and friendly.

Everything was perfect, the room was spacious and had a very comfortable queen sized bed, the place was quiet and you can get a good night sleep. The shared facilities are clean and the kitchen is quite big. I enjoyed a beautiful sunset in the porch. The guy working there was super friendly and helpful. A good location if you want to shorten the walk to Hongu.

Right next to the supermarket so we could get ingredients for dinner and breakfast. The kitchen had everything we needed to cook. Rooms have their own sinks which was a bonus. The room stayed very warm for winter. Really nice views and close to other sightseeing places.

    The major onsen resort in Wakayu, which is a really small village. Enjoy the outdoor onsen and peaceful river view a lot. The breakfast buffet is very Japanese-style and nice. Staff are very helpful. The free shuttle bus is great.

    Our host Manabu is very hospitable, and ensures everything is going well for your visit. We enjoyed the location, 10 .minutes walk to fabulous onsen, quiet rural village. There is a small minimalist for groceries, Okagesan yakitoria run by Manabu san, and the cafe at the onsen for meals.

    The private onsen's were really nice and so was the traditional japanese room - pretty, clean and warm, which was great after hiking. The staff was friendly and helpful, they made sure, that we were aware that the food options in village were limited, so we could make an informed decision about ordering dinner from them.

    Very low light pollution at night, we were able to see the Milky Way from the terrace, which was accessible from our room. It was great! The location is perfect if you want to hike the 1-day loop of the Kumano Kodo and also drive down to the Kumano Nachi Taisha. They have some snacks and instant noodles in the kitchen in case you miss out on the few restaurants in the village. Also, the host was very helpful and gave us pointers on which places were open on which day so we did not need to go hungry to bed.
