forumWhat families say
Opened in 2006, this Provence-style petit pension with 2 rooms in all has a nostalgic air about it. The raised garden, inspired by waves rolling onto the shore, leaves a strong impression, and the pension is run by a couple: a husband who loves airplanes and jazz, and a wife who is a fashion designer. There is a shuttle bus from Uehara Port, along with a wake-up call and a welcome drink, and breakfast and dinner are served in your room or in the dining room. A members-only Cafe & Bar is attached as well, making it a calm place to spend quiet island time.
