Satoyama Villa Shimoda Central Hotel

Over the past few years, this Accommodation has become a place our family wants to visit at least once a year, and both kids and adults are always completely satisfied. This summer vacation we weren’t planning a trip to the Izu area, so we thought a summer stay might not be possible—but when we learned about the summer vacation discount offer, we knew we had to go and made a last-minute Reservation. With prices rising everywhere, we truly appreciate this thoughtful gesture from the Facility.As always, every staff member—from arrival to departure—shows wonderful hospitality that makes for a genuinely relaxing stay. The Facility is also very clean. The summer vacation pop-up stalls were unexpectedly enjoyed more by the adults than the kids; it was fun seeing everyone feel like children again. It was disappointing that we couldn’t play tennis due to construction on the tennis courts, but there were so many enjoyable activities that we barely had enough time. We also love the surrounding satoyama countryside nature, so next time we’d like to stay in spring.

This was my first stay. The lobby, guest room, private open-air bath in the room, and the large public bath were all spacious, and I was able to relax and enjoy a wonderful time. The meals were also delicious, making great use of local seafood. Although it wasn’t open during my stay, it seems there is also a pool. I think it would be nice to come with my grandchildren as well, and I would like to stay again.
