Private Resort Hotel RENN

超級滿意 房東也是個超級可愛的人 下次有機會去還會去住。 すごくいいと思うが、また行きたい。

The hotel is original, with breathtaking views, located in a green setting. Ideal for relaxing! The breakfasts are refined and prepared by Renn and his mother using fresh local produce. Renn is very welcoming and helpful and makes your stay most enjoyable. Excellent and unforgettable moment. Need a car to explore the island. I recommend.

Private Resort Hotel RENN is simply stunning. It is set in the south east of the island, a short distance from the best beaches, but far away from the big resort hotels that obscure the beauty of the environment. It offers a truly authentic experience of the island that is very rare to find when discovering a new place. Everything is of extremely high quality. The hotel is a striking design statement and the rooms are tastefully appointed. Each room has a lovely covered balcony with a sea view as well as an open roof terrace above the room with the same beautiful view. The roof terrace is the perfect place to watch the sun rise. The fittings are also of the highest quality with a large, stylish bathroom, including a shower from which the sky is visible. It feels like living in a luxurious private house, utterly peaceful and far removed from the usual signs of tourism. Guests should certainly book the breakfasts, which are fantastic. I had breakfasts on two days. On each day a completely different style of breakfast was served, traditional Japanese one day and continental the next. The food is locally sourced and each day included a variety of courses, including local fruit and spices. I felt treated to the best home cooking by a really knowledgeable cook. I can’t remember eating better breakfasts anywhere in the world in many years of travelling. The experience was completed by the owner, who was wonderfully helpful in supporting my stay. As a non Japanese speaker without a car, I might easily have found it difficult. But both before I arrived and during my stay, the owner, Renn, took the trouble to find out information for me and to support me to see parts of the island that wouldn’t have been possible without help. He was the perfect host and my trip was certainly richer for his local knowledge and recommendations of the best places to go. This is the best hotel I stayed in during my time in Japan by a distance. It is a very special place that I will not forget. I would recommend it to anyone looking for a truly authentic experience of the island in a beautiful and peaceful environment.
