Family-friendly holiday rentals in Ito, Japan

Fantastic host, fantastic stay in a beautiful home.

This was our favorite place we stayed during our 12 day trip through Japan. The house is lovely. We fell in love with the space immediately. It’s a beautiful balance of old and new. The host was proactive in his communication. The Food Mart is very close - a 5 minute walk. I was worried about where we would grab snacks and water, but the proximity of the food mart was perfect. There are also several close restaurants and downtown Hakone is an easy downhill walk from the house. Burger Box is very close (not all the way downtown), and the food was great.

I used it for 12 people. Check-in went smoothly and we were able to BBQ right away, so it was a very long time. I enjoyed using it.

It was nice to see Mt. Fuji in the morning.

The beach is right there, you can see the sea even if you are sitting in the dining room, the stars are beautiful, the location was great!It was a family trip for three generations, but I would like to come back again. There is no microwave, so I thought that if you have small children, you need to be creative with your belongings.

Very nice place, great baths and lots of extra options too.

We had a wonderful stay at Gabriel's home in Hakone. The private indoor and outdoor onsen were absolutely perfect—such a relaxing experience and exactly what we needed to unwind midway through our trip. The space was clean, peaceful, and very comfortable for our group of four. One of the highlights was how accommodating the host was—allowing us to leave our luggage at the home after check-out so we could continue exploring Hakone without the hassle of carrying our bags. It made a big difference and we’re so grateful. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a relaxing and convenient stay in Hakone!

I used it for the first time Nine people stayed, but there were three rooms with two beds and a Japanese-style room, and it was comfortable There are both outdoor and indoor baths, and I was able to take a pleasant morning bath in the warm water. The refrigerator was also a good size, so there were no problems at all If I had to say one thing that was disappointing, it would be the stove, which was induction. Unfortunately, there were only two induction-compatible frying pans, and most of the others were not compatible. This was the first thing that puzzled me. Additionally, there were no teaspoons at all, so I had to use a large spoon instead. It would have been great if there had been teaspoons available.

It had a lot of amenities

The owner was fantastic and very responsive, even took us to the local grocery store. The house is on the side of the hill in an incredibly quiet and serene location with complete privacy. The outdoor hot bath was incredible, too, and a great way to relax and unwind at the end of the day. Overall it was a great place to stay and would recommend it for anyone staying in Atami.

It was good as described.They were very responsive to issues.

We had an amazing time during our 3 day weekend ! Place was exactly as per the pictures and we had the feeling of being in another country ! Beach really close by (walkable distance but with hill to get back to the house), convenient store and grocery shopping near by if you have a car. Would happily come back for holidays !

Yuji was really responsive and easy to communicate during our stay. It was an old house but I think the owner already tried his best to maintain and clean it (it’s just too old and had some stain and rust on places). There were trees and bushes surrounded the house - beautiful but yes a lot of bugs, and luckily not much got inside. There was not much to do nearby but would be good stopby to rest for a night. Considering the price it’s totally worth it. I’ll still give it 5 stars in overall.

Thanks for your hospitality. It was very enjoyable and very nice!

The sauna, water bath, and natural hot spring were all pleasant to use!The description of the facility was also easy to understand, and we had a comfortable stay.

We stayed in this lovely home just outside of town, nestled in nature, for one month and felt right at home. Abhi is a most generous and considerate host, he helped us out from start to finish and made sure we had the best time in the Shimoda area. You do not need a car if staying here as the beach and a couple of restaurants are only about a 10 min walk from the house and convenience store about 20 minutes and a couple more good restaurants / bars about 35 minutes. But if you want to visit more sites in the area or go to the grocery store we'd recommend a car. The main reason we were visiting the area was to dive with the huge schools of Hammerhead sharks just off the coast here. Without a car the dive center can pick you up. We highly recommend Abhi's place. good wifi good AC big TV well equipped kitchen washing machine

This was a beautiful home for a very reasonable price. I loved the futons, the enclosed balcony, the bathtub and view…it is located up the mountains, but my 65 year old mother had no problem walking up or down. But I do recommend calling an Uber to check in with your luggage. Pulling it up the hills might be difficult. Cars usually stop running at 6pm so try to check in before then! We weren’t able to call a car for checkout, so we walked our luggage down the mountain with no problems! Small detail but They also provided much nicer toilet paper than some hotels even, so that was appreciated! The bus station is very convenient so we didn’t feel far away from other activities. But plan your dinners out because many of the restaurants hours aren’t accurate on Google. Best to call to reserve if you can! A very great stay for families or bigger groups!

Stayed only one night, but it was lovely. The cabin itself is tiny, but qiet comfortable, especially wanna point futons - i usually have troubles cuz it is way too hard for me, these were ok) Another good thing - private bbq place right at the entrance to cabin. Beach is literally in 2 mins, bus stop in 3) The town looks a bit dead....may be it was not a season yet. Nearest 7/11 in 25 mins walk. The host is very friendly and speaks english vell, so communication was easy.

We had a wonderful stay at Mitsuko’s house, and the view on the sea was amazing! The house is comfortable to stay for longer periods, with more than enough cooking utensils, cutlery and plates and cups for cooking. Definitely visit the local hotspring, and Manyo park in Yugawara for a relaxed day out. There are also some local busses for commuting to the nearest supermarkets.

Very peaceful and quiet during the offseason. Rumiko-San is an excellent host. I hope to return soon. :)

Absolutely amazing place to get away. Very quiet, amazing views and the house had all the amenities you could need. Will definitely be back next year.

Cannot express how highly I recommend this place & Mizuno as a host. Beautiful beautiful scenery, stunning traditional home, and the location is great. We lost a bag and Mizuno was on top of it and helped us get it back within 2 hours. We look forward to being able to stay with Mizuno soon!

Situated within the woods, very quiet and peaceful area. Not touristy and easily accessed by car (although walkable to the lake by foot, it s pretty steep hilly road so may not be suitable to walk for elderly). Very cosy and clean place. highly recommend!

Comfortable apartman, room was more spacious than it looked on the pictures:D However, it was designed for people with smaller stature, so someone who's above 180 cm might find it uncomfortable. Central location, relatively close to the bus and the sea. Many amenities offered, also close to many restaurants and convinience stores. Very communicative and helpful host. :) The only downside is that we had to be careful with the amount of hot water used for showering and dishes. Overall a great experience:D.
