The bathroom is a bit far away. No restaurants around, so you need to ride to one of the 2 towns (for us was not an issue as we had bikes).

A great place to stay in Naoshima! First, the location is very peaceful and it is directly in front of the sea - great to wake up or to enjoy the afternoon after visiting the island. The location is amazing as you can see the Benesse House Museum and the yellow pumpkin from Kusama from there - very close! The rooms (tents) are basic but have all you need and are not too cold.

The toilets were a bit far from the jurte.

The Jurte was very cosy and comfortable and had all you needed.

No luggage storage / wardrobe

Great location, views are w second to none. Simple set up but great value for money.

It's a bit of a walk to the toilet at night

The yurt is really cool and the location is amazing and very relaxing. The dinner (extra payment) was excellent.

Shower block wasn't the cleanest. Yurts looked tired. Beds were quite hard - good for some, but not all.

Location and surroundings are wonderful. Yurts were clean and spacious. Private bath and shower was well worth the price.

Nothing really; you pay for what you get. The beds were a little bit on the harder side, but slept very well so can't complain.

Great location near the yellow pumpkin and right near the sea. Easy to come here by bike, but might be a bit more difficult by bus or by walking, but totally doable.

I think for the cost, the value of the dinner and breakfast didn't match my expectations. The food was fresh and tasted fine, but for the same cost compared to other dinners in Japan, it was lacking a bit. Perhaps the inflated cost might be due to the fact it's on an island and harder to source ingredients? We originally thought to reserve the meals because we weren't sure when restaurants on the island would close. However, after being on the island there were quite a few good options. Based on my experience, I wouldn't go out of my way to book the included meals next time.

The place was quaint and relaxing. The staff were helpful by putting our bags (we left our luggage on the morning we arrived) ahead of check-in in the rooms and in reserving our taxi to visit the onsen which was greatly appreciated. The facilities were comfortable and it was nicely located at the last stop for the bus, which made it convenient. Even though it was rainy, it was a cozy stay.

The accommodation is in a beautiful location at the seaside of Naoshima island. Benesse House is at walking distance and a free shuttle service up to spectacular Chichu museum is available. The location is the end point of the town bus with direct connection to the ferry. From the outside the cottages look a bit dated, but inside they are nice and convenient with an excellent view. Staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Don’t forget to order meals in advance. They are good quality and there are few to no alternatives around.

You have to enter into the character of the property. It could be described as “glamping” (glamorous camping) and enjoy it for what it is. If you have the right attitude—and good weather (important) — then it’s great fun. Don’t expect luxury and you’ll have a good time.

The seaside ambience is authentic and homely. The light and atmosphere inside the yurt and outside in the green spaces make this truly a unique experience. We had lovely weather; it could be very different in wind and rain.

A bit overpriced.

Great location! Basic rooms but clean.

Stayed in April 2023

Showers felt quite exposed and just to note it is a coin shower so an additional cost. But hardly surprisingly when camping. I was staying alone so it does make the cost a bit more expensive but still worth it I think for such a unique stay.

Amazing location for a really special stay. It was so nice to stay just by the beach. The campsite is also right by the bus stop from the main port so was really easy for me and my heavy luggage. Super close to the galleries too. You can also see the yellow pumpkin from the site! Staff were all really friendly. The caravan was surprisingly comfy and I slept really well. obviously it is small but that is to be expected so bear in mind if you are tall.

A little bit pricey for a camping but that must be linked that I was alone in my trailer.

It's by the sea, close to the museums and the bus stops right in front of it.

Stayed in April 2023

when it’s not summer it can get super cold, there is a heater but the gas smell is really strong, beds could be a bit more comfortable

super nice beachview, good location, the bus stop is right in front of the property, it was my first time sleeping in a yurt and would definitely do that again

It can get cold at night during spring time although there are heaters and thick covers. Need to bring own towels.

A beautiful and unique location in front of the beach next to the art museums. It is interesting to stay here as it was a previous art Installation. Staff is very kind and helpful.

Breakfast so-so, but dinner homely and excellent.

The cafeteria is really not good. It would be a fairly easy thing to improve but for now best to avoid.

Location is good and the value for money is fantastic. Paying extra to hire the private bathroom is money well spent.

Shared shower is actually a coin shower - you have to pay to shower, it’s timed as well. lots of boat noise in the early mornings - bring your ear plug.

Location - right at interchange bus stop on Naoshima island. gorgeous seaside with great views of the Beneese area. Yurt stay was a unique experience.

Would have liked a little more information in English about meal choices nearby , we ate in next village which was walking distance away.

Right on the beach, and near free bus stop. Worked really well for us. Was a little cold but had a heater and more blankets, which worked well. Just a lovely view and spacious yurts.

Stayed in April 2023

Toilet and bathing facilities are shared, I had to think ahead about filling my kettle with water before night time.

I stayed in a yurt that was beautifully decorated. I was right by the beach. All the staff were good and friendly. I could get to the art museums easily - using the shuttle bus or walking which was about 30 mins walk.

If you stay in a yurt, be ready for having a bathroom that is a hundred meters away. It may not sound like a big deal but, at night, especially in freezing weather (the sea winds can get really strong), you may end up thinking twice about leaving your yurt to take a bathroom break.

The location was excellent, right next to the bus exchange, and right next to the sea. Kusama's yellow pumpkin was just a stroll away, as was the Benesse Art Museum. I stayed at one of the yurts, and it was definitely an experience worth sharing. The yurt was surprisingly functional for up to four people, with heater and power plugs. And the breakfast udon set was delightful.
