“A beautifully restored private villa and the perfect base for your island-hopping adventure.”
Escape to Omishima Island, where a beautifully restored traditional villa awaits along the scenic Shimanami Kaido. Sink into a fragrant hinoki cypress bath, sleep soundly in a hotel-quality California King bed, and wake to birdsong in a quiet village, just a short walk from the sea — the perfect island retreat for slow mornings and unforgettable rides.
