Shima Daijiji Temple Hotels

"A rather unique staying experience at a spacious log house and one you'd want to be bringing friends along to. Absolutely excellent value for money, just inconvenient to get to (car/taxi basically mandatory). --- I went with enough people that we booked 2 of the standard quadruple bed rooms. Since these rooms are actually two halves of the same cabin (unlike the private villas), we basically had the whole cabin to ourselves. We gathered on one of the two sides and got pretty rowdy, then checked from the outside to confirm that it was fine and shouldn't be a disturbance to our neighbours. We opted for the barbecue grill rental (red Coleman grill), which they set up on one of our sides along with a bunch of chairs and basic lanterns. We went to a nearby Aeon supermarket to pick up meat, drinks, etc. (plus oil and condiments — anything that goes in the mouth wasn't provided and we had to procure those ourselves). BBQ turned out to be a very cost effective and fun way to have dinner with friends. Apparently if it had rained, they have portable stoves as replacements that can be used indoors. The kitchen was well stocked, with available items listed in Japanese somewhere on their website. We could have easily bought ingredients and cooked a meal here instead if we wanted. Only downside is you'll want a car (or taxi) to get here, past a rather narrow winding path in the woods. But it's located pretty well in the Shima area, only about 10 min drive from Shima Spain Village."

"Resort quality hotel. Nicely loacted in a quiet and forested area. Staying among nature with forest ans near the sea. Hotel is well deciarted. love the free lounge area to sit back and relax. breakfast was great. love the decor, very modern but cozy with lotsa wood on walls and furniture. Breakfast was almost like fine dining restaurant grade. "

"Overall is good and clean enough. Hotel Wifi is weak, barely works."

"I will visit this hotel again. So convenient from Osaka and a nice quite respite from the hustle and bustle of the city. "
