Nakaya House Villa Itsukushima

Review by hotel critic

As a marine biologist hailing from the beautiful city of Edinburgh, I have an appreciation for spaces that harmonize comfort and culture. My ideal getaway usually includes complimentary Wi-Fi, well-equipped kitchens, and atmospheric lounges that invite relaxation after a day of exploring. During my recent stay on a charming island, I discovered a traditional Japanese home that ticked all my boxes. It featured a cozy spot for making tea, comfortable bedding arrangements infused with authentic design, and plenty of room for my family of five. Each corner of the house was spotlessly clean, embodying a serene atmosphere. Our host was attentive, offering invaluable insights into local dining spots and attractions, which made our stay even more enriching. From the beautifully preserved common areas to the intimate setting of our rooms, my experience here was thoroughly good. I left with cherished memories and a desire to return to this enchanting escape.
