Beachfront Traditional Japanese House – IBII STAYⅡ

Wake to the sound of waves, and dive into the sea. Fall asleep to that same sound each night. This coastline is Japan's "nangoku" — sunny, palm-lined, and warmed by the Kuroshio Current. Surf, walk the shore, or simply breathe in the sea air, and watch the sun rise over a quiet fishing village at dawn. The house is a little old, with limited air conditioning and the occasional insect — but cozy under the kotatsu in winter, cooled by sea breezes in summer. An undiscovered side of Japan awaits.
