Our stay at the hotel was amazing. The staff is extremely friendly and ready to help out if you have any questions. The work is fair and the hours are respected. We mostly did house keeping which revolved around cleaning rooms/changing sheets. In between work hours there's limitless things to do around the area if you are interested in nature/beach. The electric bikes make the surrounding area super accessible and are very fun to ride around town. Would definitely recommend staying here if given the chance!

First ever volunteering experience and overall was a very good one. There were a couple times where I was confused was to what I was supposed to be doing but the staff are very nice. I was did multiple jobs at the hotel including making beds/cleaning rooms, social media work, and kitchen hand. The location of the hotel is out of town but you are in a beautiful spot. They provide electric bikes and a shuttle service that runs at particular times. Thus there are plenty of opportunities for you to visit Shimoda and/or around the hotel. Would recommend this experience if you enjoy slow travel

I really enjoyed my time at the hotel. Like all the other reviews the communication was not great but we got everything we needed and they were very flexible. The town is super cute fishing/beach village and the beaches near by are so beautiful. The work is fine but the staff is all super kind and helpful. I would definitely recommend staying here!

Volunteering alongside the hotel was one of the greatest experiences I've had so far in Japan, and the best part about it was - it never really felt too much like hard work, because the people working alongside you (the staff and the owners) are so kind that it makes you want to shed a tear as you leave. The scenery & nature make it limitlessly interesting, whereas the people make it equally as enriching. I would strongly recommend volunteering at the hotel.

The couple that own the hotel are great and honourable people! They always put an effort in into making sure they did their job well as hosts and I'm glad to have worked for them. They're also fun to talk to.

Worked In the Kamitaga Hotel, it was great. Routine consisted of making up hotel rooms and housekeeping. Only a couple hours work each day. Local area was beautiful & tranquil with easy links to Atami & Tokyo. The kitchen we had full access to was also really good.

This was a great experience! I absolutely loved all of the beautiful nature nearby and the electric bicycles you can borrow were very useful to explore the local area. The work hours are as stated and the staff and host are also very friendly and communicative. The room you stay in is also comfortable. The only thing that would be good to know before you arrive is that there are no shops within walking distance, so you should bring food with you right from the first day, and you also need to bring your own towel. The kitchen is also not the greatest, but there is a microwave which is useful.

L'esperienza è stata del tutto positiva, l'hotel è molto bello e mette a disposizione l'onsen termale dopo le ore 22 per i volontari. Il proprietario è una persona molto gentile e ci ha sempre aiutato, abbiamo anche avuto bisogno di far recapitare un pacco amazon e lui è stato molto gentile, ci ha aiutato a far recapitare il pacco nella sua seconda sede di Atami essendo che noi dovevamo risalire in quella zona. La zona offre molte possibilita di visitare siti naturalistici e culturali. Consigliato avere un mezzo di trasporto per visitare meglio la penisola, l'hotel mette a disposizione e-bike!

The hosts speak Chinese and Japanese but they're both (married couple) very friendly and willing to communicate with you. all the staff there don't speak English except for one lady, but they're very familiar with using Google Translate. the area is very quiet, not much to do in the immediate surrounding area but there's a bus to town 10 min away (USD5 for a round trip). the hosts asked us to help w cleaning despite us agreeing to manage their social media, which felt a bit unfair. other than this they were welcoming and let us use facilities (onsen, bikes). would recommend for a short stay!

My boyfriend and I really enjoyed our experience. The job was very light and consisted of 3 hours a day of bed making. It's a repetitive task but the time goes by really fast. The host is very kind and the staff is helpful too. When I took the volunteering I didn't know much about the position (I think communication here on the app could improve, actually) but I'm glad I took it. I'd like to thank the host for being so kind and letting my boyfriend and I use the private onsen on our free time, that really made our experience next level! :) also shimoda is the cutest town! Def recommend it!
