Open House Sakurasakura - Kamakurayama - - Vacation STAY 14049, hotel in Kamakura

Set in Kamakura in the Kanagawa region, Open House Sakurasakura - Kamakurayama - - Vacation STAY 14049 offers accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking.

Overall speaking our stay was fantastic. We read the comments before we booked and expected a good stay. We know the transport is a concern but we drive, so it isn’t an issue. (See below for more about parking) Yet, it is still out of our expectations. We enjoyed so much in the quiet and harmony environment! We spent 4 days 3 nights here. We appreciate the services, food and environment. Places are clean, neat and tidy. The host Rin-san is very detailed and helpful. Its location is a distance from the town; so it is quiet. Originally we planned for long days in nearby towns and tourist locations, and thought that it is just a place for bath and sleep. We didn’t book for additional meals (only booked a dinner on the first night because we would arrive late). Later on we changed our mind and booked the breakfast for day 3 and 4 so that we can enjoyed and relaxed more. Both the dinner and 2x breakfast were wonderful: good variety, delicious, well garnished, and good price! Next to it is a large park. On day 3 we shortened our day tour and went back early. We jogged for an hour and then bought some beer and light meal as our day-3-dinner. The sunset was wonderful. We just sat outdoor, had some snack and chat. An hour easily passed. There were a few email interactions before we checked in. Rin-san explained everything we need and reserved a parking space for us. He replied our questions promptly and arranged everything as requested. We had no difficulty locating the House except that we didn’t expect the condition of the small road towards the House was so poor. In fact Rin-san had explained to us in the email. The road was under construction. We then moved our car to the House another parking space on day 2 morning. It’s just 2 minutes walk and is next to the park we mentioned above. Rin-san drove us there. The arrangement was great. I can’t probably write everything here.

The location was great, it did have views of the beach and it was within walking distance to a Lawsons and restaurant options. It was a walkable distance to Kamakura Train Station and other stops on the Enoden Electric Rail line. Overall the apartment was adequate and comfortable but we felt that there was a lot of room for improvement.

guesthouse SHIBAFU, hotel in Kamakura

Situated in Kamakura, 600 metres from Yuigahama Beach and 1.3 km from Zaimokuza Beach, guesthouse SHIBAFU offers a garden and air conditioning.

The staff is super friendly and helped me carry the luggage to the room also helped me take downstairs. Also helped me call a taxi even helped me pull my luggage to outside waiting for me get on the cab and left ! It’s so rare even in Taiwan they won’t help you to do that ! The food I had the night before was super tasty . It’s next to the guesthouse, I think it’s also belonging to the guesthouse, because the staff was the same guy who help me carry my luggage upstairs. I chose grilled steak with veggies and the appetite was also great ! Super delicious! It even tastes better than a proper restaurant! And people were in the bar super friendly and helped me up my journey in Kamakura told me which ways I go would saved my time. Let me feel super warm and like that place so much ! One day trip was too short there are so many beautiful places to see ! I would definitely come back again and stay more days here next year! Thanks for helping me ! ❤️
