    Kotonoha’s guest rooms aim to be a space of healing and purification no one has ever experienced before.

    Do you need healing?

    After serving guests at the accommodation for over 10 years, We’ve noticed that many people are caught in a vicious cycle of lack of healing due to everyday stress.

    To that end,
    The guest rooms feature rare “Hado tatami mats” which is made in Fukuoka Prefecture, and the walls are finished with plaster with hemp charcoal.

    We have also drawn circles under the tatami mats using hemp charcoal plaster to help circulate positive energy.

    Both have a strong healing effect on the subconscious, so even those who don’t understand energy well can enjoy them!

    We highly recommend this experience to anyone who feels they lack healing, have trouble sleeping, or tend to get irritated.

    Just “experience” it for yourself.

    Once you experience it, it all makes sense.

    For more information, please refer to the article below.
    (We also sell hado tatami products and hemp charcoal. Please contact us if you’re interested.)

    Kotonoha is located in Chikuzen-Maebaru, in the heart of Itoshima City, and is easily accessible by JR, bus, taxi, car rental, and bicycle rental.

    And since KOTONOHA is right in front of JR Chikuzen-Maebaru Station (just a 1-minute walk!), there’s no need to worry about getting lost.

    The area around KOTONOHA is also lined with restaurants, cafes, and shops, making it a shopping district that can be enjoyed both day and night.

    This is the only area in Itoshima where you can enjoy a stroll on foot and where many shops are located, so it is recommended even for those who don’t have a car.

    We also offer “bicycle rentals“, so please consider using them.

    Itoshima is a rare area in Japan where all its residents are mindful of “local circulation.”
    Local production for local consumption is a given, and there’s a culture of supporting each other in the community.

    Many people also volunteer for beach cleanups and town cleanups, and many of them care about the global environment.

    For this reason,
    At Kotonoha, we’ve paid particular attention to the amenities (furnishings) so that guests can experience the feeling of living in Itoshima.

    The freely-accessible kitchen is stocked with tableware made by Itoshima artists.
    Over 200 artists live in Itoshima.

    There are also other “Made in ITOSHIMA” items, so please feel free to pick one up and use it to get a feel for Itoshima.

    We also use Itoshima’s eco-friendly “Hinata Detergent” for dishwashing and laundry.
    It is the world’s first detergent that requires no rinsing.

    Our face towels are made from organic cotton and are environmentally friendly.

    The shower head and kitchen water purifier use a special type of water called “Soryusui.
    This rare water purifier changes the behavior of water molecules simply by passing them through a filter, preventing cellular oxidation and restoring them to their original state.

    In other words, just staying at Kotonoha and drinking the water can purify and detoxify your body from the inside out!
    (We also act as a distributor for Soryusui, so please contact us if you’re interested.)

    [About the stories about traveling around the world]

    We traveled around the world for a year in 2015.
    We visited 93 cities in 23 countries.

    The incredible cultures, wisdom, and experiences we learned from the people we met around the world are priceless treasures.

    We have been sharing my experiences there once a month on Fukuoka’s radio station, LOVE FM, for over 5 years.
    The photo is with DJ Anna!

    Not only are stories from around the world useful for everyday life in Japan, but I feel they have the power to shake up and change our values.

    Would you like to talk about the world with us?

    Also, even from an objective perspective, having traveled the world ourselves, ITOSHIMA in Fukuoka is very appealing.

    We would love for everyone to experience the “good things about Itoshima” that only we can talk about.

    Please note that in order to talk about moving to Itoshima or our traveling around the world, we need to arrange a time, so please contact us in advance.
    It will be easier to coordinate our schedules if you stay for multiple nights.

    At Kotonoha, we recommend staying multiple nights so that you can fully experience Itoshima and our relaxing guest room.

    One night in Itoshima is simply not enough!!

    Please, don’t make busy trips like work.

    Touring in Japanese letters means “observing the energy (=light) of the land.”
    We want to offer tourism that goes beyond mere consumption, so at Kotonoha, we recommend staying multiple nights.

    We are offering a “special benefits for staying 3 nights in a row,” so please take advantage of it.
