料理が美味しく、食べきれないほどで、とても満足しました。ホスピタリティが素晴らしかったので居心地が良く、とてもリラックスできました。お風呂は、こちらでは渡瀬温泉に案内してくれたので、思いがけなく温泉に入れたのも良かった。 ただ部屋が大きくて、泊まった日は外気温が低いせいもあり、部屋全体が寒く感じました。
automated translation: The food was delicious, and there was so much of it that I couldn’t finish it all—I was very satisfied. The hospitality was wonderful, making me feel right at home and allowing me to relax completely. As for the baths, they took me to Watase Onsen, so it was a pleasant surprise to be able to soak in a hot spring. However, the room was quite large, and perhaps because the outside temperature was low on the day I stayed, the entire room felt a bit chilly.

Kindly Homestay with cute dog
Hosts were very kind and hospitable. It was only me but they cooked me up a feast for royalty! Host also took me to the local onsen baths (much needs after 11 hr hike)

Best Food and Service
We were really late in arriving in Hongu Taisha (long hike) and they were nice enough to pick us up as we have missed the bus. In all oour stay in Kumano Kodo, they have the best food! The husband is the chef and I must say we were completely spoilt by the food he provided for dinner and breakfast. Even his packed lunch box was the best we had during the trip. They also provided bento lunch boxes for other hotels in the area. Their locations is pretty good. About 3 km from Hongu Taisha (located in Ukegawa) but about 7 mins walk to the start of the trail. The couple speaks limited English so we used Google Translate a lot. But the food is the BEST.

The hosts were very friendly, took me to the Onsen daily, and prepared some pretty amazing food. I think I gained weight in Japan due to them :). Do get Google Map uploaded before you walk to Hongu as you might get lost walking form the end of the trail to Ukegawa. Extra bonus if you love dogs as they have a very cute Poodle.

Lovely stay at Bond
We stayed for 1 night at Bond, a guesthouse run by a lovely couple. Although English communication was very limited, the hosts made us feel very welcome in their house. The room is spacious and comfortable. The hosts drove us to the local onsen and we had some nice (Google Translate-supported) chats about our travels. But the best part of our stay was the food: after a long hiking day we received a delicious meal; and the next day an equally delicious breakfast and lunch box. Our vegan and glutenfree preferences were perfectly taken care of. Would definitely recommend!

The best part of our trip
Althouhh we were unable to do the trails we have planned for on the day we stayed at Bond, due to the weather conditions (Typhoon), the family cares for each and every detail to make it as smooth as possible. The house in itself is very comfy. The bed, the room is ultra spacious. The toilet is very convenient. The food is a separate chapter! They are incredibly prepared to welcome all kinds of restrictions in a very generous and delicioussss way. Everybody in the family is extremely friendly and receptive. It was the highlight of our trip, for sure!!!!

Mixed Review
The food was excellent and the hosts are very friendly and superb. The guest room did not have attached bathroom. However, if food is priority, highly recommended. Was not close to the trek trail.

wonderful stay
single female traveller, stayed in mid-May 2025. Had a wonderful stay at BOND. Owners are a very kind couple who recently expanded their longstanding bento-box business to include a homestay. Guests stay in a room in their home, shower and bathroom shared with owner. Their home is located close to Hongu/in Ugekawa however they are able to pick you up at either Hongu or Yunomine Onsen. They offered to take me to public onsen when I arrived but I had already done the Tsuboyu onsen so didn't need to go, but is an option. Food was delicious. They have a small very cute dog who is still getting used to guests- if you don't like dogs, this was not a problem as owners made sure you had your space. I had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend!
