Introduction of the Accommodation




In July 2013, Kokonoma was born in the nature-rich land of Minami Aso. Surrounded by greenery and cooled by gentle breezes, the 7,000-tsubo property features only 10 rooms. Each uniquely designed room offers breathtaking views that change with the passage of time. <Creating Special Moments with Loved Ones> With the concept of being the quietest "adult retreat" in Minami Aso, we do not accommodate groups or children under the age of 13. At night, fall asleep under a sky full of stars, and in the morning, wake up to the sound of birdsong. Embracing the charm and abundant nature of Minami Aso, we strive to create a one-of-a-kind sanctuary of relaxation that can only be found at Kokonoma. <A Completely Non-Smoking Property> The entire Property is non-smoking, providing guests with a space filled with fresh, clean air. Surrounded by the blessings of nature, we invite you to relax, unwind, and spend your time as you please, at your own pace.




Find your preferred Room from various uniquely styled Rooms, enjoy special moments of bliss with your loved ones, and relax in a private Onsen without any concerns.

Innovative space
Situated amidst nature, the striking architecture and harmonious landscape create an extraordinary experience.
