With 3 bedrooms and endless ocean views, this seaside home is suitable for a small family or up to 8 friends, in an area popular with surfers, cyclers, hikers, and those looking for the slow and easy Japanese lifestyle.
Over 3 floors, the house has two double bedrooms, one bedroom with 4 futons, a living room opening to the balcony and expansive views, a fully equipped kitchen, 2 bathrooms, and a yoga / exercise room – also facing the gorgeous view.
3 and a half hours by car from Tokyo, this Izu spot can be your first stop out of Tokyo, and a base to enjoy a unique region with Mount Fuji views, hot spring towns, and gorgeous beaches. The southern part of Izu is a protected natural area – a volcanic geopark with many unique features on the coastline. Some of our favorite spots are nearby, such as Shimoda – a small port town with excellent restaurants and a vibrant fishing community, and the beaches connecting it to Yumigahama and the Benzaiten cape make for excellent hiking on well-marked trails.
