Villa Limone Oshima

Villa Limone Oshima, in the Motomachi district of Izu Oshima, is a hideaway villa rented as a whole house that opened in the summer of 2024. Guest reviews rate it very highly, and it suits families who want unhurried time entirely to themselves.

The accommodation is a spacious 131 sq m Japanese-Western room that sleeps up to 10 guests. Because you have the whole house to yourselves, you can keep to your family's own pace without worrying about other guests, even if young children get a little boisterous or a baby cries at night. Rakuten Travel also describes it as having amenities that make it easy to stay with a baby, so it is a place set up with family travel in mind.

The range of equipment is another real draw. The full kitchen has an induction cooktop, refrigerator, microwave, kettle and rice cooker, so you can prepare meals for children and baby food, or enjoy cooking together as a family. A supermarket is nearby, so shopping for island ingredients and cooking with them is part of the fun.

There is plenty to enjoy outdoors too. A barbecue or a campfire under the stars makes for an island evening children will not forget. Izumihama, where you can swim, is about 3 minutes away by car and can also be reached on foot, and Kobohama, Oshima's central swimming beach, is close by as well, so summer days can be spent fully in the sea.

The villa sits in the Motomachi district, about 5 minutes by car from Motomachi Port and with easy access to Okata Port and Oshima Airport, which makes it a convenient base for exploring the island. It is also well placed for spots families enjoy, such as hiking on Mount Mihara, Tsubaki Hana Garden where you can meet squirrels, and Oshima Park Zoo, which is free to enter.

Please note that no meals are served, as this is a whole-house rental. Please confirm the details of the facilities, the capacity and any baby items available to borrow when you book.
