the guest house was lovely - very clean and spacious and in an excellent location close to Honmura port and a bike rental shop. There is also a great selection of drinks and snacks in the guest house. The hosts were amazing. They couldn’t do enough for us, picking us up and dropping us off to the port, helping with booking bicycles and finding a restaurant in the evening. They even bought us fresh coffee when we checked out. The perfect stay with the perfect hosts! Thank you!

Featuring air-conditioned accommodation with a balcony, Naoshima Juju Art House 直島ジュジュアートハウス is located in Naoshima. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is situated 500 metres from Sumiyoshi-taisha Temple.

We love everything about JuJu Art House and Naoshima. Naoshima is a beautiful and unique island and Juju Art House is a must stay if you intend to stay overnights in Naoshima. It is located just about 7mins walk from the port and if you intend to cook, a big grocery store is just 5mins away. And if you cannot cycle and intend to take the town bus, there is a bus stop near the house (so u do not have to walk to and fro the port bus stop all the times). As for the house, all the great reviews you have read are all true! It is unique, spacious, comfortable, very clean and well maintained and managed. The game set is incredible even my 4 grown children had so much fun with it. Lastly the host is an incredible, friendly, most helpful and detailed person. He will inform you in advance of where to eat, what to look out for and always ready to provide you the best advice. Thank you Marc. Your house is the best and so is you.

I fell in love with this house. It was incredible. Everything I imagined a traditional Japanese style home to be. Plenty of space. A calming aesthetic. Quality home. A lot of outdoor space which must be wonderful in good weather. Plenty of heating. Plenty of blankets. Pyjamas supplied. I wish I could live there - that’s how beautiful it is. I am so grateful for the chance to stay here. Good value for the space. Also, I have to thank the hosts for being so kind, warm and friendly in their communication and for being so generous and helpful. This would be an ideal base for exploring Naoshima. I walked to Uno Port in 30 mins, but without backpack it could be quicker. Probably there is a bus but I didn’t look. It felt so nice staying in a town not routinely visited by tourists. After the crowds of Tokyo, Kyoto, Osaka etc this was a welcome respite and a chance to slow down and see a small town, real life.

The air-conditioned accommodation is 700 metres from Teshima Yokoo House, and guests can benefit from private parking available on site and free WiFi.

This perfectly preserved traditional japanese house proved to be the perfect housing for our stay exploring Teshima and Naoshima. Alan, the host, proved to be invaluable in his recommendations about how to best visit the islands. He also gave us tasty addresses for lunch and dinner and even drove us there at night. We think the villa is the perfect setting for a family, it provided us for a welcome respite during our very busy 2 weeks in Japan. We rented bikes and thanks to them, we were able to crisscross Teshima although your youngest son is only 10. Alan not only welcomed us right at the ferry arrival but was always in touch with us before and during the stay. 10/10 ! (The sister villa "Queen" looks very nice too)

    This place ranks among the best I've ever stayed in! Its location couldn't be more ideal—it's close to bus stops that conveniently connect to all the art museums and other parts of the island. Situated within a campsite, we stayed in our own cozy cottage complete with a private bathroom. While the interior wasn't lavish, it had everything we needed, and the sea view from our room was breathtaking. Moreover, the staff were exceptionally kind and helpful, adding to the overall wonderful experience.

    Close to the main port, to the only convenience store on the island and to some food options. Small and cozy. The lady was very nice and welcoming. The toilet greets you by raising the seat when you enter. The room is well heated on cold nights.

    The room was cozy and very clean with private bathroom. Reasonable price. The most important thing is that the owner was so kind and nice. Although his English speaking was not so fluent, we can still communicate via Google translate. I was thankful for his driving me to the port to take ferry after I checked out.

    The staff at My Lodge were very responsive and helpful to my queries. we had a rough transit and arrived very late (11pm) and they surprised us and met us at the ferry. They were very friendly and helpful and the property was very stylish, clean and a great view.

    The place was quaint and relaxing. The staff were helpful by putting our bags (we left our luggage on the morning we arrived) ahead of check-in in the rooms and in reserving our taxi to visit the onsen which was greatly appreciated. The facilities were comfortable and it was nicely located at the last stop for the bus, which made it convenient. Even though it was rainy, it was a cozy stay.
