Offering a garden and inner courtyard view, 藤のヴィラ チェリー棟 Self Check-in is set in Aso, 39 km from Suizenji Park and 39 km from Hosokawa Residence Gyobutei. The air-conditioned accommodation is 30 km from Egao Kenko Stadium Kumamoto, and guests can benefit from on-site private parking and complimentary WiFi. The property is non-smoking and is situated 39 km from Kumamoto Castle. We arrived in the evening, in the downpour and darkness, feeling lost in the middle of nowhere. A cozy cottage was waiting for us: with heating on, beautifully furnished to the smallest details, very clean, very well equipped, comfortable. Just perfect. Due to an accident with a broken car window, we had a pleasure to meet the host. He helped us complete the formalities, secured the car for the rest of our journey and made sure that the remnants of glass wouldn’t have hurt anyone or anything. It is difficult to express how grateful we are and we regret that we cannot give a higher rating

Boasting mountain views, Soil provides accommodation with a garden, barbecue facilities and a shared lounge, around 30 km from Egao Kenko Stadium Kumamoto. This holiday home offers free private parking and private check-in and check-out. The property features a shared kitchen, a family-friendly restaurant with an outdoor dining area. We drove by the cottage the first time and stopped about 100 meters ahead. Then we were approached by some local people, one of which was the owners mother. They were super friendly and she guided us to the correct location. There was a nice big spot to park our car directly in front of the cottage. We had diner at the table outside and enjoyed the night sky. From here you have great views of mount Aso and also the surrounding edges of the caldera. Great experience and one of our best rural stays in Japan. Thanks to the owner and his mother for their hospitality and kindness!

Offering a garden and quiet street view, Himawari is situated in Minami Aso, 36 km from Suizenji Park and 39 km from Kumamoto Castle. The property has mountain and garden views, and is 30 km from Egao Kenko Stadium Kumamoto. Free private parking is available and the homestay also features bike hire for guests who want to explore the surrounding area. It is a very pretty mansion close to the mount Aso. The view is amazing and the interior is cute and beautiful. I especially appreciate the fireplace, it made the whole house very warm and cozy. The warmness is especially important in houses in Japan - in almost half of my stats during the trip it was freezing cold with AC being of little help. The owner was very friendly and helpful. He helped us to get the luggage up the stairs, gave nice travel advice, it was really fun to talk to him. In the morning he helped us with the coffee machine and with the tea for my mother, I was really greatful. And of course the dog! The owner's dog Leo - fluffiest and cutest golden retriever also lives in his own room in the house. The owner took it out to interact with guests upon their request and Leo was such a good boy! Very calm and well-trained, I fully converted to a dog person now.

It is situated 41 km from Kumamoto Castle and features full-day security. There is an outdoor fireplace and guests can make use of free WiFi and free private parking. Location was brilliant one bus stop away from Aso Station - even in walking distance. And the host was fantastic giving out a lot of information. I liked that it felt rural and simple. Everything convenient but comfortable in a easy but not sophisticated way.

Featuring a spa bath, Shikinosato Hanamura is located in Minamioguni. This ryokan provides free private parking and a 24-hour front desk. Providing free WiFi throughout the property, the ryokan is allergy-free and features a hot spring bath. The staff were attentive and spoke English. Fujimoto-san in particular was very polite and friendly. He helped us from picking us to the bus stop to the end of our trip.  Although the location is not in Kurokawa Onsen town, the staff were accommodating and dropped us off and picked us up from the town and from and to the bus stop when we arrived and left. The room and onsens were clean and spacious. We enjoyed the outdoor private onsen in particular. The public cave onsen was also quite fun.  The dinner and lunch was delicious highlighted local ingredients expertly prepared by the chef.  Overall, our stay at Hanamura was beyond our expectations and was relaxing and peaceful.
