Kumano Kodo Nagano Guesthouse

Set in Tanabe, 23 km from Shirahama Hot Spring, Kumano Kodo Nagano Guesthouse features a garden and air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi. The accommodation offers a concierge service for guests.

The rooms will provide guests with a shared bathroom. A refrigerator, microwave, coffee machine and electric kettle are shared. This was such a great stay! Simon and Yumiko, the owners of this small Guesthouse are such lovely and inviting people. Simon met us at Kii-Tanabe station at our pre-discussed time, and drove the 25 min to the remote guesthouse. The atmosphere around the property is serene and so quiet, such a good change in pace compared to Osaka! Simon helped us with our Kumano Kodo walking plan, and then the next morning dropped us off at the start of the hike, another 30 min drive away. There’s a small shrine that you can walk to close to the property. There are two guest rooms on property, we were the only ones there, so it wasn’t loud. We had a microwave, fridge, electric kettle and heater/air conditioner unit in our room. They also provide coffee and green tea and cups! Highly recommend!
