Background
As remote work becomes more widespread and working styles diversify, the demand for extended stays that allow guests to experience a destination as a local resident has grown. While shorter trips can provide a taste of a region, longer stays come with concerns around cost, living facilities, and access to bathing and work environments. Lenessa Akazawa addresses these needs by combining resort-style comfort with practical living amenities, offering a setting where guests can experience everyday life in Izu with peace of mind.
Facility Highlights
Nestled within the expansive forests of Izu-Kogen, Lenessa Akazawa is an all-cottage-type accommodation that prioritizes privacy. Surrounded by trees, each cottage offers a tranquil setting away from the noise of everyday life, catering to guests looking for a getaway, a long-term refresher, or a trial stay ahead of potential relocation to the Izu area.
Natural Hot Spring Large Bath
The property features a natural hot spring large bath, an outdoor bath, and a sauna — all available for guests throughout their stay.
- Large bath hours: 6:00 AM–9:00 AM, 3:00 PM–11:00 PM
- Sauna hours: 3:00 PM–10:00 PM
Private Cottage-Style Rooms
The independent cottage layout means guests are less likely to be disturbed by neighboring rooms, making the accommodation suitable for rest or workcation use.
Pet-Friendly Rooms
Pet-friendly rooms are available for guests traveling with their dogs. An on-site dog run is also available.
Self-Catering and Living Amenities
Pet-friendly rooms come equipped with a kitchen. All rooms include wireless LAN, and coin-operated laundry facilities are available on-site to support extended stays.
Access to Nature and Sightseeing
The facility is set within the natural landscape of the Izu-Kogen area. Akazawa Beach is a 12-minute walk away, and having a car opens up options for sightseeing and daily living across the surrounding region.
