The house is old, but decent and clean, you can tell that the owner put in so much effort to maintain it. Clean futon with good smell, dog was allowed to be unleashed in the property (I was the only guest for that day), sunset was lovely, overall satisfied!

“I enjoyed my stay at Diamond Head and will come back again.”
This is not your typical hotel experience. Diamond Head is a guesthouse in an older, but updated Japanese home in the peaceful little village of Mio. The owner, Owen, is a friendly, hospitable guy who is also a very good cook. He prepared excellent meals for me at dinner and breakfast, using fresh local ingredients. There is also a bar at Diamond Head if you like to drink. My room was clean and spacious, with a futon to sleep on. The night I stayed, I had the bathroom to myself. At sunrise the roosters crow, adding to the countryside charm.

“A great getaway place for family and friends to chill.”
Owen, our friendly host, was prompt in answering questions before our stay. He cooked an excellent dinner for us - garden salad - figs with cheese, freshest sashimi (5 types!), yummy kumano beef sukiyaki. He whipped up a super breakfast too. As we were going to Wakayama (which is his home town) the following day, he recommended places for our lunch (ramen) and dinner (omasake set). Huge comfortable rooms is a bonus!

Lovely place, and owner was really nice and friendly! He cooked us our evening meal which was delicious! Our room was nice and spacious and we had a bit of wood floor to the side for our dog. Parking in front of the house so easy to get stuff in and out.

“Layback, quiet, unique, isolated, Diamond-head in the rough!!”
The food was amazing. The owner is very friendly and full of information about the area. The bar is well-stocked with local nihonshu. Old trad. Japanese house. I enjoyed every minute.
