Indigo Geohouse DS1

A beautiful property in a beautiful location on Uradome Beach. We enjoyed the access to the beach for swimming and outdoor shower. Beautiful views from inside rooms. Owner was attentive and helpful when we had some tech issues due to Expedia. We enjoyed SUP activities with a local tour down the beach.

This is such a beautiful location, and the home is well-maintained and decorated with care. When we arrived, four pairs of slippers were waiting for us, just as if we were staying in a traditional ryokan or machiya. We felt welcomed as invited guests. The guide covered most of the operational questions we would have had, and the pictorial on-site book answered most others. The ocean-facing patio also had outdoor slippers and while it was too cool to go in the ocean, the outdoor shower located off the patio and near the kitchen door would be very welcome in the summertime. The property is a close walk from two different bus stops on the Iwami bus that goes down the Uradome coast (the bus was 100 yen each, a marvelous value). The upstairs 'master' bed was firm but comfortable, and the ability to open the patio doors upstairs and yet have screens for bugs meant we were able to sleep with the sound of the ocean. The tatami room and futons was likewise comfortable, with the air conditioner/heater in that room keeping the temperature at a good level. The conbini was about a 20 minute walk, and even though we got a bit of rain it was a priceless experience to stroll through the town there and back. Microwave heated our food up well and the sorted trash bins made it easy to put things in the proper place. My only regret is staying just one night, and I am very hopeful to make a return trip and stay at Indigo Geohouse again. We will rent a car next time!
