“Beautiful , immaculate and thoughtfully setup house for a family or larger group.”
Beautifully appointed and equipped 2 storey house. Exceptionally clean and spacious for our family of 5. Close walking distance to kintetsu station but longer walk , especially when pulling luggage, from JR Nara station. Friendly and unobtrusive host.

“Lovely house in a quiet traditional lane”
Shoya is a wonderful property down a quiet lane full of small traditional shops, including a dumpling shop run by the lovely owner. It is only a short walk from Kintetsu Nara station and close to many of the temples. We also took the opportunity to explore some of the sights outside Nara itself while we were there. There are walking trails and villages only a short train ride away. The kitchen in the property is fully stocked, there is a washing machine, the beds are comfortable and there are two bathrooms and two separate toilets. The only thing to note is that the tatami room is attached to one of the bedrooms so it is not very private. Apart from that it was perfect for us. We couldn’t have been happier and it was so much nicer than a hotel chain!

The house was very clean and comfortable. So great to get a sofa to relax on together as most tourist places don’t seem to have one! Loved everything, thank you!

“A stunning modern villa in an excellent location in Nara”
Shoya is a stunning villa with excellent facilities and beautiful finishes. The vila was modern yet cost and warm. I was also impressed with our host Kai who continually checked in and was concerned when our baby was unwell.
