Family-friendly holiday rentals in Yugawara, Ashigarashimo District

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!

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.

メッセージのレスポンスに親切にお答えいただきました。チェックイン、アウトの際も丁寧にご対応いただき気持ちよく利用させていただくことができました。

We loved staying at this house, there was plenty of space indoor and outdoors. We didn’t use the patio seating area but would definitely come again with a group to enjoy the bbq area. The highlight was definitely the onsen, both indoor and outdoor were easy to use and we enjoyed them multiple times during our stay. Helpful instructions were all over the house on how to use all the amenities and appliances which took the hassle out of using the translation apps. We noticed there was some beautiful walking trails in the area and a Lawson right down the block with bus stops near by if you do t feel like driving. Would definitely come back again with more friends and/or recommend to others.Thank you again!

Wir hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit in der Unterkunft. Sie hat die perfekte Lage als Ausgangsort für viele Ziele in Hakone. Ichimaru war außerdem immer sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir haben sogar noch um eine Nacht verlängert, weil wir uns so wohl gefühlt haben. :)

This is a truly wonderful place to stay—surrounded by nature and filled with an incredible sense of peace, accompanied by the gentle sound of birds and a flowing river. Honestly, the photos don’t do it justice; the property is even more beautiful in person, and I’m so glad we chose it. Eriko was a fantastic host, always attentive and thoughtful. We walked to an onsen just 10 minutes away, which was an amazing experience. The private onsen on the property was perfect for my little girls (5 and 7 years old), and enjoying breakfast on the balcony with the sound of the river in the background felt absolutely magical. I highly recommend this place and would definitely stay here again the next time we visit Hakone.

とても快適に過ごせました！ 施設清潔で、家族でゆっくりとくつろぐことができました。 何よりも感動したのは、ホストの対応の速さです。 ちょっとしたトラブルがあった際にも、すぐにご連絡・ご対応いただき、とても安心して滞在できました。 丁寧かつ親切な対応に感謝しております。 また機会があれば、ぜひ利用させていただきたいです。 ありがとうございました！

Ichimaru was easy to communicate with and responded quickly to messages. The place was comfortable and everything worked fine. we would be happy to stay again.

アメニティが豊富でした

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.

Michael非常温暖有趣，他的房屋干净整洁，用心装点。其实房屋的位置去附近的城崎海岸、大室山⛰️、仙人掌公园都不远。仔细看Michael提供的guide book，里面有很多的购物、餐饮和旅游建议～伊豆是个安静的海边小镇，天气好时能清楚的在阳台看到蔚蓝的大海，记得沿着房子周围散散步，你会看到邻居的花园正盛开美丽的花朵，还有时不时会串出的小松鼠🐿️和鸟儿～是个放松和享受自然的好地方～祝大家开心❤️🌸

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.

サウナ、水風呂、天然温泉はいずれも気持ちよく利用できました！施設の説明もわかりやすくしていただき、快適に宿泊することができました。

とても楽しく宿泊できました。ありがとうございました。

We really appreciated Yuji's quick responses, he was very helpful with our booking. The place was very clean and just what we were looking for.

美しい海に、美しい森林に囲まれて非日常の体験ができました！！海は歩いて10分程度なのでいつでも行けるし、夕方(16時過ぎ)でも遊べて最高です！夏限定でお店もぽろぽろあるし、コンビニもあるので飲み食いには困らないと思います^ ^オーナー様も優しく気がきく方です。かなりtalkativeな方ですけど笑 　BBQもできますが、オーナー様より火おこししやすいように焚き木も配置してくれたので感謝しております！！ 　他の方もおっしゃっているように少なからず虫は多いです。山の中だから仕方ないことですが。家の中でゴキブリやタカアシグモに出くわすのは当たり前だと思うべきかもしれません。それすらも楽しめる方なら何も問題なくむしろお得です。 　非常に素晴らしい立地で最高な体験ができたと思っているのでオススメしたいです。

Very nice villa, with an incredible view! It was very clean and a very pleasant stay.

Booked this place without reading the reviews and solely based on Mr. Hiro’s description/pictures; I’ll use my review to clear up some of the negative reviews and lack stars that this place deserves. This is a Japanese traditional style home. The comforts of the western world that everyone is mentioning, for instance, air conditioning, are not common in Japan. Hiro’s place has an AC unit in the living room, though it’s not enough to reach the bedrooms upstairs, just open the windows and embrace the dozens of birds/nature. This was a surprise trip for my wife; not once did she complain about the stairs (she’s pregnant). Not a valid complaint; You should’ve read the description by the host before you booked. Free parking and easy accessibility by automobile. If you can afford to book this place, then you can afford a vehicle. Again, not a valid complaint. Also, you chose to travel to a mountain and use public transport; of course you’re going to complain about walking up hills.

湯河原湯かけまつりのための滞在でおじゃましました。 素晴らしい茅葺き屋根の日本家屋で、囲炉裏を囲んで仲間と楽しい時間を過ごせました。 珈琲や調味料なども備えられており、お心遣いを感じました。 バス停も徒歩30秒、立地も最高です。

2度目の利用になります。 プライベートな空間が保たれていて、都会の喧騒から離れたい方にはとてもおすすめです。 充分な広さもあり、お庭ではBBQや焚き火も可能です。 基本的なアメニティ、食器、ゴミの分別なども用意されていますので滞在中は何のストレスもなく過ごせます。 室内の温度調整も問題なかったです。 また次回が楽しみです。

建物は古いですが、とても丁寧に手入れをされているようでした。スタッフの対応もとても良かったです。熱海の中心地からは離れていて静かなところです。温泉は無職、透明で素晴らしかったです。温泉を楽しみ、静かに過ごしたい方にはオススメです。

The host was responsive and friendly. It was a great stay!

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.
