The nearest airport is Shizuoka Airport, 73 km from 海豚自由 イルカフリー Free dolphin.

The facilities suit the budget. If I can suggest some improvement - hot water for drink or instant ramen, either thermos flask or electric kettle would be convenient.

    A wonderful hostel with everything you need. Situated in a gorgeous quiet location overlooking the sea, beautiful beaches nearby. Restaurants and bars nearby. The hostel provides a well equipped kitchen, bikes and stand up paddle boards. Good hikes and onsens around the area. The hosts are a kind, friendly couple who are enthusiastic about what they do to make their guests feel at home. We loved it there and would highly recommend the area and hostel as a good place to relax.

    Shimoda is a really cool town, I loved it, and I think if it hadn’t been for the location and the value of TOMI’s place, then I might not have stayed for the full three nights. I was able to rent a bike for two days very cheaply from TOMI, and the beds were very comfortable and the dorm was quiet. Loads and loads to do in the area!

    Yuki San is an exceptional host, after arriving earlier has no problem showing me the property and also gave me very useful tips about places around - where to eat, where to surf, and where to go onsen. Whole property has a really nice and friendly atmosphere as well as the whole Shimoda. Yuki also provides bikes, which moves the whole experience to a different level. If I return, I will choose All You Need guesthouse again. Arigato gozaimasu.

    A charming accommodation overlooking the beach. Mr Yamamoto is a very gracious and welcoming host. He provided us with clear directions to the place and even offered to fetch us from the bus stop since it was dark by the time we planned to check in, despite not having any shuttle service in the first place. We received a token gift from him at the end of our stay! I really appreciate the attention to detail in making us feel welcomed. Truly a memorable and heartwarming experience.

    Quiet location with a beautiful view. Mr. Yamamoto is an exceptional host. He was simply lovely; he speaks English, incredibly kind, and made everything effortless for us. The pension is spotlessly clean and well maintained. There is a 7-11 at the beach, so it was quite convenient. We took the bus from Shimoda station with no difficulty. It was a great stay.
