Frequently Asked Questions about short term rentals in Japan

  • What attractions should you visit during a week-long stay?

    A week is a great starting point! You could focus on Tokyo, exploring iconic spots like the Meiji Jingu Shrine, the Tsukiji Outer Market (for delicious seafood!), and the vibrant Shibuya Crossing. Consider a day trip to Hakone to enjoy views of Mount Fuji and the volcanic hot springs. If you're interested in history, Kyoto offers numerous temples and shrines, including Kinkaku-ji (Golden Pavilion) and Fushimi Inari-taisha (thousands of red torii gates). You could easily spend a few days in each location.
  • What are the best short term rentals in Japan?

    Among the short term rentals in Japan, Marubeni Hongawa Building 402 602 801, Longvacation Okinawa 307 and 5 Minutes Walk To Dotonbori And Shinsaibashi are the most popular ones.

  • What attractions should you visit when you spend a month in Japan?

    With a month, you have time for a more in-depth exploration! Start with Tokyo and Kyoto as above, but add more regional experiences. Consider visiting Hiroshima's Peace Memorial Park and Museum, a powerful and moving experience. Explore the ancient castles of Osaka and Himeji. Travel to Kanazawa in Ishikawa Prefecture, known for its Kenrokuen Garden, one of Japan's three most beautiful landscape gardens. For nature lovers, the Japanese Alps offer incredible hiking opportunities, and you could even venture to Okinawa for its subtropical beaches and unique culture.
  • What are the best short term rentals with a pool in Japan?

    Churaumi Terrace, Give Higashi Nakano and Scallop Beach Condominium are the best short term rentals with a pool in Japan.

  • What currency is used, and how easy is it to find ATMs?

    The Japanese yen (JPY) is the currency. ATMs are readily available throughout the country, even in smaller towns and rural areas. Most ATMs in convenience stores like 7-Eleven and FamilyMart accept foreign cards, but it's always a good idea to check with your bank beforehand about international transaction fees.
  • What are the best short term rentals with a jacuzzi in Japan?

  • What are the most charming areas to spend a weekend in Japan?

    Kamakura, a coastal city south of Tokyo, is incredibly charming, with its iconic Great Buddha statue and numerous temples nestled amongst the hills.

    Kyoto is a popular choice for longer stays, offering a rich cultural experience and easy access to other nearby attractions. Kanazawa provides a quieter, more traditional experience, with beautiful gardens and a well-preserved old town. For those seeking a slower pace of life, consider smaller towns in rural areas, like those in the countryside of Gifu Prefecture or the Tohoku region.
  • Is Japan safe for solo travelers, including women?

  • What do you do if you lose your passport or documents?

    Immediately report the loss to the nearest police station. They will provide you with a report, which you'll need to obtain a replacement passport from your country's embassy or consulate in Japan. Contact your embassy or consulate as soon as possible for assistance.
  • What seasonal celebrations make special?

    Spring features the iconic cherry blossom season (Hanami), with festivals and celebrations throughout the country. Autumn brings beautiful foliage and festivals like the Aomori Nebuta Matsuri (giant lantern floats) and the Kyoto Autumn Festival. Shichi-Go-San, a celebration for children, occurs in November.
