The expansive Omoya, or main house, spans 244 square meters of comfort and charm. The first floor features a cozy living room, dining room, kitchen, 1 bedroom, a quiet work-space, a traditional tatami room with an irori, and two baths — one modern, and the other constructed of fragrant hinoki (cypress) with a tsuboniwa (small Japanese garden). Upstairs you’ll find two inviting bedrooms: one, a tatami-mat room enveloped in custom handmade washi by celebrated Kurotani craftsman Wataru Hatano, whose internationally acclaimed work blends centuries-old papermaking traditions with a contemporary aesthetic; and the other, a modern bedroom offering luminous garden views. The entire Villa is suitable for families or groups of up to 10 guests.

Through our partnership with the esteemed Tobira Holdings, Villa Azalea offers a guest experience defined by the same meticulous care found at their flagship property, a member of the prestigious Relais & Châteaux association. By entrusting our facilities management and guest turnover to their professional hospitality team, we ensure that every detail meets a world-class standard of comfort. From the crisp, hotel-grade linens in our restorative bedrooms to the pristine maintenance of our signature hinoki bath and premium amenities, your stay is curated by experts in Japanese hospitality. Whether you are enjoying the garden views or relaxing by the heated floors, you can rest assured that the intimacy of our historic home is elevated by a commitment to service that guarantees your absolute peace of mind.

We welcome children, asking only that you take care for their safety around steps and rocky places. You’ll find children's chairs, stepladders, baby bathtubs and safe tableware for your family's use and comfort.
