AHGV5B594321b* We had the most peaceful, beautiful stay at Kenji's farm on Miyajima Island! First of all, incredible location. I can't imagine many other people would have a way to get to that side of the island, it was so remote. Ken was very kind and drove us to and from his farm, even stopping partway both times to show us beautiful views of the island. He also helped us pick some veggies for dinner and then we were left to enjoy the farm on our own. The house itself was beautiful and has had a lot of love poured into it by Ken. I would recommend anyone visiting Miyajima to stay here!

What an amazing getaway! We really enjoyed our stay at the farmhouse. Kenji made sure to pick us up from the ferry and we visited his neighbor’s farm on the way. Incredible opportunity for a relaxed weekend! And the views from the house are simply stunning.

Beautiful stay

My partner and I got to stay at this property for one night. Once we arrived, however, we wished we could stay another! This property is so magical, and the entire place is full of the host's personal artistic touches, like handmade tiles, and Ghibli-style lights around the bath-house.The one thing I would note is that the bathroom and toilet are separate from the main living quarters, so late-night toilet runs can be dark and cold! Bring someone to hold your hand.

Island relaxation

It was great to spend some time in nature relaxing after doing city sightseeing. Kenju was very helpful collecting and delivering us to and from the ferry port. We had a lovely time enjoying the peace & quiet and waking up to a stunning vista of the sea and surrounding islands.

An incredibly relaxing stay

We loved our time on Kenji's farm, in particular just watching the boats in the bay at night time and listening to the wildlife, especially while having the most amazing bath. Kenji was a fantastic host and made check-in and out super easy for us. Do make sure you bring your own food for dinner and breakfast as we didn't realise just how remote the farm is!

The house is beautiful and Kenji-san is a fantastic host. The property is very rural, so you *need* to bring your own food/ingredients for dinner. Kenji-san will personally drive you to and from the ferry port. He also picked fruits and vegetables from his garden for us to enjoy. He even offered to take us to lunch at one of his favorite local places (normally unknown or inaccessible to tourists). Overall, Kenji-san was an incredibly kind, funny, and interesting man. He loves to talk about linguistics, art, and being a “baby boomer.” His English was great, and he is also fluent in French. I would rate Kenji-san’s farmhouse higher than 5 stars if I could!!!

Paradise on the magical miyajima

This was by far my favorite vrbo I have stayed in yet! Kenji was the best host, so helpful and kind. We spent our time star gazing, making dinners and soaking in the tub ❤️ the island its self is so mystical and full of rich history. We walked to the closest beach and swam in clear waters watching the fishing boats cruise by. Very peaceful. Couldnt recommended more!! Arigato kenji san!

Kenji-San has a lovely farm that is the perfect mountain side retreat for some quiet and solitude! The Japanese cedar bath is enough reason alone to book! The best bath I’ve ever had! Not only that but Kenji-San was very flexible and accommodating with my arrival and departure. He even offered me vegetables from his farm to go along with the food I had brought. They were so fresh and delicious! This is the perfect place to get away and refresh yourself in the elements. I wish I could’ve stayed longer!

An escape from the crowd

Kenji has built a lovely house on the top of the hill with a beautiful view on the sea. It lies at 9 km of the city center with no connection by bus. Make sure to shop your food before getting to the island as there are 2 small convenience store on the island. To go to the city, Kenji will drive you (conditions to be defined) otherwise it is a nice 2-hour walk along the coast.

1 night stay

Housing property is clean. It’s a farm so the bathroom is separate from the main house. The house has a nice kitchen to use and tatami bedroom. There’s a multi purpose room in the basement level but we didn’t use it. The farm wasn’t upkept but the owner said he’s changing the crops. The Bedroom view is beautiful and Sound of crickets/frogs at night loud but peaceful as there’s nothing around…

Kenji picked us up from the ferry terminal and drove us to the farm, stopping to show us the beautiful scenery that lead to the property. He was kind and talkative which made us feel like he was happy to have us stay at his farm. Upon arrival, we were taken aback at the beauty of the farm and the surroundings. The room, the bathroom, the kitchen and tea room were all beautiful with views and charm. It was an incredibly relaxing and peaceful experience to stay there. At the discretion of Kenji’s availability he was able to drive us to town so that we could visit the shrine which was a great way to see both sides of the island. The sea is super close and very swimmable.

A calm hidden oasis in the midst of nature

This was my second time staying at Kenji-san's farm in Miyajima island. The first time I stayed alone, this time with another adult and a 5-year old child. Kenji-san's farm and place is a beautiful little oasis at the calm, quiet mountain side in the mystical and lovely Miyajima island. The beautiful buildings filled with the loveliest details, the outside ofuro, the surrounding farm and the magnificent views to the Setouchi sea create the most loveliest stay. Kenji is the loveliest and kindest host and communication with him always works impeccably. I will definitely come and stay here again!

Kenji picked us up from near the ferry port on Miyajima island after messaging a few days before to arrange with clear instructions. On the way to his farm, we had a lovely chat about his life and career as a translator, our lives, and Miyajima. He let us stop off to look at a beautiful view of the sea from the road. Kenji was an incredibly attentive host, showing us all around his vegetable patch, outdoor bath, and the traditional Japanese style room we were staying in. Everything was so thoughtfully considered and he explained it all, such as how the bedroom was styled in the traditional way to embrace shadows, very different to European decorations which centre on light. The evening we spent at the property was delightful - cooking our food, eating it at the table with a view over the Seto sea and reading as the sun set - later there was an incredible view of the moon above the water. The day after, Kenji picked us up from the farm and dropped us back at the ferry port. Our only regret about the trip to Miyajima is that we didn't stay for longer - if we were to do it again we'd have loved to stay another day and go down to the beach near the house or hiking a different trail. We can't recommend it more.

Serenity on miyajima

This was my second trip to the island and I wanted to stay overnight this time without dealing with hordes of other tourists and looking for something on the quiet side. This is a farm on the far side of the island under the shadow of the mountain top with the most excellent view of the surrounding clear blue waters. There is a comfortable Japanese style bed, a hot bath and shower, a well equipped kitchen and a relaxing lounge. The host will pick you up at the ferry visitor info booth and drive you to the farm. Once there he will give you the grand tour and select vegetables for you to have a salad for your dinner. You have to bring your own proteins to cook for your dinner. I was able to take a hot bath whilst he sun set, then cook a chicken and pork dinner with a fresh garden salad. Then I relaxed under the stars until it was time for bed, where I retreated to the futon to sleep Japanese style. In the morning I had eggs for breakfast while the rising sun illuminated the sparkling blue waters of the surrounding sea.

Incredibly Special Place

We have travels a lot, and Kenji’s farm is one of the most special places we have stayed. The land itself is incredibly serene - the view of the sea from every part of his property, all while being at the foot of Mt Misen - the landscape was legitimately inspiring. And the house itself is perhaps even more beautiful - so conscientiously designed. Obviously, the wooden hot tub/shower and outdoor areas are a highlight (we saw snow falling from the tub!) and the kitchen is one of my favorites I’ve cooked in, but so many little touches throughout. It has everything you need, and Kenji is such a supremely thoughtful and attentive host. Went out of his way to transport us, answer our many questions about the place and land, and sincerely offer the chance for connection. We also explored the surrounding area, the beach that’s just a 1/4 mile walk is stunning, and the run I took on the road from the house was one of my all time favorites. This place was the perfect way to s l o w d o w n after a lot of big cities on our Japan trip. I sincerely cannot recommend it enough. I am tempted to book a return trip to Japan just to stay at this place. Come visit, and thank you Kenji!

Refreshing Nature Retreat

Our favorite stay of our entire trip was Kenji’s beautiful farm. It was the most perfect retreat in nature, where you could hear a waterfall, birds, and we even saw monkeys! The farm has all the modern conveniences and interior design. The open air bath was the cherry on top, where you could fully relax in nature. It was so peaceful. Kenji was the perfect host! He picked us up from the ferry terminal and gave us fresh vegetables from the farm. It was great chatting and getting to know him! He put a lot of hard work into the farm and it shows. I could not recommend this stay more highly. We had a perfect time and will definitely be back again. Our only regret was not staying longer. Thanks Kenji!

The farm has a gorgeous view of the island and inland sea. Kenji is an interesting host who will pick you up from the port and pick fresh vegetables from his farm. Be aware however that the outside furo (bath) pictured on Orbtiz/Expedia is no longer in use which is very unfortunate because it was what drew us to this property. Also, the futon (bed) has no cover sheet so you are sleeping on a bare mattress which is not common at most inn's in Japan. Also know that you are expected to bring your own bath towel which I also have never encountered in all of my stays in Japan. I thought he was joking when I was told that it would be 300 yen per towel. Another awkward moment came while we were bathing in the semi open air bathroom in the morning. Kenji decided to have a business meeting with three other men right in our plain sight. We had to close the door and block our view to avoid seeing them and being seen. Overall a unique experience but one I would not to repeat.

Miyajima Farm

The farmhouse is very nice. Everything you need in the kitchen to cook with. The outdoor bathhouse is one of the best features of this house. We very much enjoyed the peaceful atmosphere soaking in the tub. The farm garden is great. So wonderful to go out and pick fresh greens to go with dinner. It would be helpful to revise the description of the property to alert potential clients of the remoteness of the farm if you have no car; you will need to bring all your own food. We had no idea we were not near town or a grocery store. Since we had no car we had to rely on Kenji for rides back to town. He was very accommodating with the transportation. Overall, a very magical place to stay.

A welcome retreat in paradise

This place is a great getaway from the city hustle. The house overlooks the lovely garden, with a view of the island-dotted sea beyond. Birds and a fast running stream serenaded us throughout the visit. The coarse sand beach with beautiful views is a 15 minute walk from the farm and we were the only people there. We cooked our own meals (bringing our own food and drinks) and Kenji supplied us with abundant fresh produce. The kitchen was fully equipped and we cooked looking out at the sea. Another highlight was bathing in the cedar hot bath while looking out at the stars at night - our own personal night sky onsen! Kenji is a world traveler, intellectual, creative and interested in trying new things. He shared some of his new projects and showed us around the town before we had a goodbye lunch together. Kenji transported us both ways from/to the ferry. We had a lovely stay and felt refreshed. Thank you Kenji!

Can’t speak more kindly about my experience. I booked this place last minute, so I wasn’t quite sure what to expect. The property is not accessible by walking, so the host instead coordinates to pick-up and drop you off from the Miyajima ferry port. He’s extremely friendly and kind, and the about 10 minute drive was spent talking about the island, and friendly conversation. After we arrived he toured me around the farmhouse property, and made sure I knew how to use everything and that I had all I needed and more before he left. The property’s interior is beautiful traditional Japanese architecture, with a lot of art and spacious rooms. The main living space has a bedroom upstairs with tatami and futon beds, and a basement area with an iori-style table/center furnace that is beautiful. Next, there is a full kitchen with windows that lift up to a bar in the breakfast/living room, which has classic shoji (sliding doors) that open to a small engawa porch. It’s a perfect spot to sit, enjoy your coffee, and watch the sun rise over the view. The bathhouse area with the traditional Japanese soaking tub was also amazing, again with shoji that can be opened to fully enjoy an open air bath with the scenic view. Don’t book expecting to be able to walk to the Itsukushima shrine or shopping, but certainly book if you want to spend some time in a beautiful traditional farm home and enjoy the scenery and surrounding nature on this historic island. It feels magical. 10/10
