Akariya is a small accommodation facility in Tanabe City
Akariya is a little far from Tanabe Station and it is normal to take a bath but it is about a 2minute drive from the Kisei Expressway Kamitita IC and it has good access to Shirahama so at Shirahama Onsen I think you can enjoy a day trip bath Easy access to Shirahama Adventure World Shirahama Beach and Kumano Kodo Free parking is available
We also have maps of restaurants in Tanabe City and Shirahama Town so please feel free to contact us br
Please note that this facility is only available to Japanese people
Kumano Shikitei is a rental villa that can accommodate only one group per day up to 15 people
You can enjoy a completely private space in the wilderness where the clear stream flows
Please refer to the house rule column for details
Large room with a great view of sea, clean and cozy.
I was arriving late which passed the check-in hours due to flight delay. My sim card cannot make phone calls in Japan and I was afraid of not being able to check in. Fortunately, the front-desk gentleman was waited for us until midnight and helped us check in. And he guided us to find the vending machine to find the food even not speaking English. It’s a very positive experience to live here.
I was about to give bad reviews due to some poor check-in experience, but everything after check in is so good that compensates this journey.
First, the check-in process that brings me with bad experience: it is self-served and there is no any staff. By rights you should receive an instruction email with check-in PIN in advance, which I heard from other guests. However, I didn’t receive anything but Trip’s confirmation letter and I was unable to check in. And my sim card in Japan is just an internet card unable to make phone calls, which means I have no way to contact the hotel directly. My partner and I were desperately locked out of the hotel in the evening, after 7h hiking, with no other available hotel in the mountain. After waiting for over 1 hour, other guests helped us to enter the admin room where there is an ipad to call the hotel (why not make it available to guests without checking in?), and with the help of Trip’s agency, we finally checked in successfully.
Then here is the staying experience: so good that makes me almost forgive the poor check-in experience. Each room is a spacious individual house and ours has a garden for BBQ. The food is also self-served, with the cooking stuffs and ingredients in the fridge. It was unexpected that you need to cook yourself (I don’t think it was listed on room info when I booked it), but it’s not bad that Wagyu, chicken, and vegetables are served. The rooms are big and cozy, and you can do the laundry after hiking.
Everything is good about the hotel itself, just be aware of the self-checkin process and make sure you get the instructions before that.
