Kenji was an incredible host and has a really beautiful property. He was very responsive and kind enough to drive us to and from the ferry terminal/ property (about 30-45mins by car). He leaves you totally alone at the property (other than potentially popping in to water his veggies) as he lives elsewhere. I would recommend this stay to anyone looking for a remote retreat. That being said, the property is VERY remote -- this is not for anyone looking to see the sights of Miyajima, or otherwise leave the property at all. You can walk around the farm, take an indoor/ outdoor bath at the bathhouse, or make the short walk down to the beach at the bottom of the hill (rocky but gorgeous, clear, swimmable and near private), but that is all you should plan for unless you want to make the 2hr trek to town or do some serious hiking ! Bring your own food for the stay (fridge and full kitchen provided). Our only real criticism was that not all of the windows in the bedroom had a lock, and the lock on the bedroom door was very flimsy and could be easily opened with a swipe of a credit card or butter knife - the island is very safe but as suspicious New Yorkers that made us very nervous! Would be an easy fix for some peace of mind.
