What Michiko, the producer, values most is personally attending to small details to make her guests feel welcome. It might surprise those familiar with the hospitality industry, but every sheet you sleep on is washed and ironed by her own hands. That’s why it's not just a 'cottage' or a 'condominium'—it’s truly a 'vacation home.' And if you stay here, and should you wish to share your favorite tea or talk about art with her, you may just find a wonderful new friend.
