Villas in Wakayama Prefecture, Japan

I was about to give bad reviews due to some poor check-in experience, but everything after check in is so good that compensates this journey. First, the check-in process that brings me with bad experience: it is self-served and there is no any staff. By rights you should receive an instruction email with check-in PIN in advance, which I heard from other guests. However, I didn’t receive anything but Trip’s confirmation letter and I was unable to check in. And my sim card in Japan is just an internet card unable to make phone calls, which means I have no way to contact the hotel directly. My partner and I were desperately locked out of the hotel in the evening, after 7h hiking, with no other available hotel in the mountain. After waiting for over 1 hour, other guests helped us to enter the admin room where there is an ipad to call the hotel (why not make it available to guests without checking in?), and with the help of Trip’s agency, we finally checked in successfully. Then here is the staying experience: so good that makes me almost forgive the poor check-in experience. Each room is a spacious individual house and ours has a garden for BBQ. The food is also self-served, with the cooking stuffs and ingredients in the fridge. It was unexpected that you need to cook yourself (I don’t think it was listed on room info when I booked it), but it’s not bad that Wagyu, chicken, and vegetables are served. The rooms are big and cozy, and you can do the laundry after hiking. Everything is good about the hotel itself, just be aware of the self-checkin process and make sure you get the instructions before that.

The hotel is right by the ancient road, you can see it from the mountain, it is very convenient. The self-service check-in is also silky, and you must read the operation instructions carefully. When entering the room, breakfast and dinner are already in the room. The dinner is packed in the lunch box. There are quite a lot of food varieties, that is, it is a bit cold. Breakfast is 4 kinds of bread + coffee. Drinks in the small refrigerator can be drunk for free. It is very convenient to have a washing machine and dryer, and wash the wet clothes on the mountain.

訂了H 房，房間內有兩張大嘅雙人床，另外客廳位置可以舖榻榻米，房間裏的衛生程度滿意，但浴室外的溫泉及位置有非常多的昆蟲在天花板及牆身上，check in的地方距離房間需要步行5分鐘的路程，實在有點不方便 房間設施齊全，有溫泉、按摩池、泳池、桑拿、燒烤爐、電器及餐具等，浴室的設備齊全，風筒捲髮棒、面膜、護膚品等一應俱全

A very good experience. The house is very clean and can accommodate 6 people. But the house agent can explain clearly where to get the house key, but the email instructions are unclear. Otherwise very good.

It is really amazing to have a hotel in a private wind, plus the endless sea view. But if it is not self-driving, it is very difficult to stay. You have to put the luggage hole on the three-story stairs. If you have less physical strength, it is difficult to complete. Although the method of entering the war is easy, there is really nothing around, and it is more like Philadelphia after night. Although this is a good hotel in addition to having a special feeling. 

The villa is clean and hygienic. The most important thing is that there is a private sauna room. There is a large swimming pool with two large bathtubs. There is a large kitchen for cooking. 👍👍 Next time you can join your family or friends.
