This was a truly memorable and awesome stay for us in Kumano. We were kindly welcomed in a house filled with figurines, games and toys from the early 2000s. The host was extremely kind and even helped us set up a projector to watch a movie! One of the most unique stays we’ve experienced in Japan so far! There’s also an incredible restaurant nearby called 食堂 あお where the owner speak English and we got to taste the best fish we’ve ever had! Overall highly recommend!!

It was a beautiful place away from the hustle bustle of the city. The owners are very friendly. Very good place to do stargazing. Do check out the falls on the left side on the main road. A quick morning walk up the road from the accommodation is also suggested.
Just a suggestion to people staying:
Pack some food or snacks as the nearest restaurant is around 7-8kms away.

This place is a hidden gem. We felt so lucky to have stumbled on it. I don’t remember the other reviews talking about the exceptional food. We were served such a feast at dinner, including sukiyaki and a delicious grilled fish. When I asked what type of fish we were eating, the owner pointed out the window. When I looked at where he was pointing, I realized we were eating fresh fish from a pond just outside the window.
Please note that the owner is also a dog breeder so there are many dogs on the property. The dogs are not roaming free so you won’t see them, but you will hear barking.
The inn is simple, but very comfortable. The owners are very kind

Traditional Japanese hotel in Shingu. We booked a separate "villa" - essentially a small house, 2 floors, all for us. Walking distance from the station, very nice and helpful host, close to all interesting places in Shingu.

Spotless & spacious room. Shared facilities were also very clean. There’s a microwave, kettle & fridge for shared use which was helpful. The owner was so sweet. There are only two rooms and I was the only one staying on my visit so had the place to myself. It’s across the street from a supermarket & a short walk from train station. All three shrines are also walking distance. Great value as well!
Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travelers who prefer laid-back accommodations with a personal touch. Usually family run, these hosts will provide local recommendations and even optional meals. Guest houses sometimes feature a cozy living room or a garden – and are still cheaper than most regular hotels.
Great service( hosts were kind to make me supper since there were no restaurant open, reservation made by the host for the following day was great), awesome food ( breakfast especially the juice) and ease of communication and very responsive host made my stay extra special!
The family owning and operating the guest house are so helpful and kind. The location is right in front of the sea, across from the Oniga-jo rocks and the Matsumoto-toge Pass. There are bicycles for rent, and the homemade breakfast is splendid.
Very recommended.
The host is great, very friendly, speaks perfect English and is very helpful. Yuko showed us great things and recommended great sights. Kumano is a small village with breathtaking nature all around. We would 100% come back.
Amazing host family. If you're looking for a quiet place, it's definitely worth staying. Close to two train stations that let you visit other places of the region.
The family who ran the guest house was absolutely wonderful: very kind, warm and courteous. Great location and a cosy room with an extra bonus of a sitting area , i.e., like a " bedsit"/mini apartment.
This was one of our favorite stays! The balcony overlooking the bay had a nice view of the water, very quiet and peaceful little town surrounded by mountains and water. The guest house was beautiful and thoughtfully designed and the futons were comfortable to sleep on. We were right across the street from the water and we had a lovely walk on the beach. The host was very friendly and welcoming, he gave us some clementines he had grown and he also gave us a great recommendation for dinner.
