Staying at Sangenya Guesthouse was one of our best experiences in Japan. The property itself is beautiful, clean and traditional. Of course, the town of Shirahama was also beautiful and having access to the beach within walking distance made it such a great location. We spent some wonderful days at the beach! Unfortunately, one of the days there was a typhoon - however our incredible hosts were so lovely and generous that it was actually a positive experience even when the weather outside was torrential. This trip marked the end of a year in Japan and even as we packed up our things to leave, we were talking about how we wanted to come back to the guesthouse in the future because the property and hosts were so wonderful. We also had some drinks at the property’s café, and both the hojicha and matcha were the best ones we’d tried in Japan!  We absolutely recommend the Sangenya Guesthouse!

It was an out of the way quiet 70's classic hotel, had a non functioning dining room with funky furniture, the red wicker giant capital letters LOVE you entered through was novel and this featured in the headboard of the wide beds and the also the table and chairs. The facilities were tired but clean and comfortable. the Shirahama caves are across the road and you get to see the most amazing sunsets. The bus stop is at the door. There is also the Shirahama plateau down the road. Shirahama Beach is an amazing white sand surf beach. However all rooms are smoking but we went and bought scented sticks from Daiso and solved the problem.

This guesthouse was awesome, its a nice small house with a comfy tatami room that lets you really feel that you are in rural Japan but what makes this guesthouse exceptional is the proprietor that goes above and beyond to make you feel welcome, starting with a bag of traditional Japanese snacks you get after you check in I can't recommend this place enough!! Also I suddenly needed medical attention and this guy made me an appointment, drove me to the hospital and translated everything for me I will always be grateful for that. Truly an exceptional guesthouse that I can recommend to everyone
