There was no bath in my room. They sent me a very expensive restaurant for dinner.

Excellent, top recommendation! Exceptional breakfast and very well trained and cordial staff. We will definitely come back! Very responsive to our questions in social media! Magnificent views and unique and modern rooms!
Naomi, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This place is awesome. I wish we had stayed longer. We stopped here for the night because it is the half way point for the Shimanami Kaido bike route. The residence was an independent structure with a large window looking out to the sea and the bridge. Sunrise was gorgeous. The unit has a beautiful bathroom, very nice bedroom and new clean kitchen. Everything about the residence was top-notch, including the amenities. The breakfast and dinner that we chose were amazing. Loved this place.

Amazing stay in one of the cottages. The luggage service was friendly, reliable and efficient. It allowed us to cycle the Shimanami Kaido without worrying about the logistics of moving our luggage. A big thank you to all the staff at Wakka!

8/10 Very good

Wakka came highly recommended by every resource in my research for my first trip to ride the Shimanami Kaido, and my experience showed why. While pricey, service was excellent, the room was amazing, and the location was wonderful. There were some minor issues though that detracted from a perfect rating. Throughout my stay the staff were unfailingly polite and helpful. Check-in was extremely smooth, with a welcome drink, and a staff member personally showing me to my glamping tent and explaining everything about the hotel amenities. The tent was awesome with two very comfy beds, strong AC, and plenty of room to stretch out especially for a solo cyclist. A big problem was the cantankerous door lock that would often not detect the keycard. One time it took me more than five minutes of repeated attempts to get in and I almost stormed to the front desk in anger. Another issue with the tent that’s shared by all other accommodations at Wakka is the need to use a common bathroom and toilet area instead of having your own. Also disappointing was the included breakfast. While tasty, you only get one set plate and it’s a fairly small serving if you’re a veteran cyclist who’s used to chowing down before burning tons of calories on a ride. At least dinner is no problem if you like seafood since there’s an excellent restaurant right across the road from Wakka. While there were niggles, the overall experience at Wakka is still great. It's worth visiting at least once.

Great place to stay

Stayed for one night in the tent and it was worth the splurge. The tent comes with two comfortable beds and a small sitting area, plus an outdoor area which was where we had our BBQ. Note that the tent has no toilet or shower and we had to use the common one which was a short walk away

レジデンスを利用しました。アウトドア用のチェアとテーブルで海を眺めながらいただいたビールが素敵でした。ケータリングスタイルの夕食もおいしかったです。欲を言えば部屋の段差が多かったのとテレビがあったらよかったな、と思いました。

After a day biking in down pouring rain, the staff greeted me with hot tea and offered to bring me a meal to my room. The tent was cozy and peaceful and the facilities were extremely clean, modern and well designed. This is one of the most special stays I’ve ever experienced and I hope to come back again. Thank you Wakka team!

Great value. Very helpful staff.

Stayed here for three nights. Excellent, helpful, polite and enthusiastic staff. Great value and great location for exploring the bike trails at own pace. I receieved lots of help over email prior to arrival to help plan the logistics of my trip. If I were to return to Shinamani Kaido, I would definitely consider staying here again.

Highly recommended!!! Love Wakka!

Staying at Wakka is a complete delight! The infrastructure is buikt to be part of the natural environment. The staff are a delight. The bikes for rental are top quality. The half board meal is full of varieties and locally sourced ingredients. My biggest concern was the shared shower facility, but Wakka kept everything clean and spotless. It's simply a delightful place to stay in and rejuvenate. In fact, our family is planning another glamping stay with them again.

Wonderful as a stop along the Shimanami Kaido

I booked WAKKA as a midpoint on my bicycling trip across the Shimanami Kaido. This is a wonderful small inn of recent construction. It worked so well that I stayed an extra night and used it as a hub to bike to art sites on the island and neighboring ones. I especially enjoyed waking in the morning to a wonderful view of the ocean, bridge and neighboring island. And, the staff is very accommodating and helpful. It made for a great trip.

YUTAKA, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This hotel is unlike anything I have seen in Japan. It has California/Palm Springs vibes thanks to the modern open air architecture, white washed clean buildings, amazing indoor/outdoor flow, and fantastic location right on the water. We stayed in one of the private cottages which face the water and we had an unobstructed view of the bridge. Despite being about 50m back from the waters edge, our cottage had an amazing breezy and almost tropical feel. Thanks to the very cleverly laid out cottages, each cottage feels private from the next and has a direct view of the water/bridge. Instead of lining up the cottages side by side in a line, the cottages are slightly angled and offset in a diagonal row, so that there are no shared walls and each front deck is somewhat private from the next. The deck out front had racks for both of our bikes and a spacious seating area (with 2 comfortable Snow Peak camping chairs and a long bench seat) with an awning overhead for shade. We sat there all afternoon enjoying the view and opted for the bbq dinner provided by the hotel, which was DELICIOUS. Highly recommend including the dinner package, as the food was local, super fresh, and so much fun to grill on the deck while the evening sky turned colors over the water. Wonderfully attentive and friendly staff, many speak decent English, and excellent customer service. I cannot wait to go back, this place is super special.

洋室棟に宿泊しました。夜は静かでBBQも美味しく、翌日朝からアクティビティのサップも楽しめ最高でした！ 自転車はレンタルだったので近くの場所で返却し20分くらい歩いて到着できます。 松山、今治へはバスで行けるためこのホテルまで尾道からレンタサイクルで40キロ走り、中継ゴール地点としては最高です。

ロケーションが良く、オーナーの対応や、食事に満足です。

妻としまなみ海道を自転車で走りに来ました。1日目は尾道へ、帰路は瀬戸内クルージングで瀬戸田港へ、2日目今治へ、帰路は芸予汽船で木浦港まで、楽しいサイクリングの起点になりました。BBQ、朝ごはんは質、量ともに満足です。また近くの町の居酒屋さんへの無料送迎はとても良いサービスだと思いました。車に自転車を積んで来たのですが駐車場がコテージの近くではないのが残念。部屋にはシャワーがありますがやや狭い。自転車のラックは室内にありますが、タオルを掛けるところが少なく、ハンガーを掛けるフックの位置が微妙でした。

手ぶらでアウトドア気分が満喫

オープンしたてだった事もあり、非常に綺麗。BBQ付きプランで利用させて頂きました、当日はあいにくの雨でしたがオープンデッキでのBBQは開放感に溢れて量も味も良かったです。ただベンチ側からの吹込みが気になりタープ等で雨避けができれば良いかと まだ改善中という事であえて書かせて頂ければフロントに繋がるインターホンが有れば更に便利、トイレには専用のスリッパが有った方が感じよく思えます。何れにしてもスタッフさんの親切な対応に非常に居心地良く過ごす事が出来ました。ぜひまた利用したいと思います。
