Kyukamura Ohkunoshima
Kyukamura Ohkunoshima is a hotel on an island in the Seto Inland Sea near Takehara, where guests stay in rooms with sea views. The property features onsen baths overlooking the water, a restaurant serving local dishes including oysters and Hiroshima beef, bicycle rentals, and camping areas for visitors to explore the island at their own pace.
The island was historically a quiet location in Hiroshima Prefecture with diverse plant and animal life. The wild rabbits now famous here were originally brought to the island years ago for a film production or as pets, and have since become a cherished part of island life.
The name reflects the island location and is closely tied to the wild rabbits that roam freely here and have become a symbol of the place. Visitors come drawn by these animals, but stay for the chance to watch them in their natural behavior and experience the calm rhythm of island life.
The hotel is easily accessible by ferry from nearby ports, with a shuttle bus service available for arrival and departure. Free WiFi is provided in all rooms, and the front desk during daytime hours plus the evening restaurant help organize a comfortable stay on the island.
Breakfast at the hotel features a special local pancake called Kunoshima Yaki, a variation of the popular Japanese okonomiyaki made fresh in the kitchen. This signature dish is unique to this island and offers a taste you cannot find anywhere else.
