Shima Mediterranean Village

At my (still very fit) 87-year-old father’s request, we decided to stay here. We were lucky to have clear skies and it was hot, but there were also rest spots with pleasantly air-conditioned areas, so we enjoyed walking around the Facility. Dinner featured delicious seafood, and breakfast offered both Japanese and Western options.I also enjoyed observing the moon through a telescope and taking in the starry sky. This time we stayed in a villa; it was very spacious, with the living room on the second floor and the bedroom on the first floor. We could see the ocean as well, and it felt like staying at a private vacation home. It was a wonderful non-everyday experience for us as parent and child.

We stayed at Shima Mediterranean Village for one night and two days.The moment you step inside, it feels like the Mediterranean—so exciting.Everywhere you look is picture-perfect.We had watched videos on YouTube beforehand, but seeing it in person was even more impressive.I was truly moved that a place like this exists in Japan.The food was delicious and very satisfying, and you can also enjoy a natural Onsen.I genuinely recommend this place—please do visit if you have the chance.
