TORIKKA STAY — Retreat Venue
For Retreat Organizers
A private whole-building rental on Awaji Island, entirely yours.
We take care of the space. You take care of the program.
TORIKKA STAY is a private villa located in Torikai-ura, Goshiki-cho, Sumoto City, Hyogo — the only beachfront building of its kind on Awaji Island. Up to 10 guests, 4 bedrooms, full kitchen and sauna. Available for exclusive whole-building use as a venue for retreats, yoga gatherings, and wellness workshops.
Magical Land
Awaji Island
According to the Kojiki and Nihon Shoki — Japan's oldest chronicles — Awaji Island was the first land created by the gods. Near the villa stands Izanagi Shrine, and on the western cape, Nishihama Shrine. This is a place where the memory of Japan's origins breathes quietly still.
Torikai-ura
Located in Torikai-ura, "Shin-Goshiki Hama" is a small beach covered in pebbles of amber, lapis, agate, white, and mottled hues. Once a beloved swimming spot for locals, it remains here quietly today. Standing barefoot on the stones, feeling them in your palms — a sense of connection with nature, so easily lost in daily life, may slowly return.
Use Cases
For retreat organizers searching for the right venue.
A place where your program can reach people more deeply.
Morning yoga facing the sea, breathwork on the terrace. In nature, participants open up in ways they rarely do.
A place for members who are usually connected online to meet in person. A private setting that draws out honest, open conversation.
A kitchen counter made for gathering around together. Using the rich ingredients of Awaji Island, this is a place where programs that reconnect people with real flavour can take shape.
Food, body, conversation. Awaji Island's ingredients and atmosphere deepen the world of your program.
Why TORIKKA
The only building on this beach on Awaji Island. Step outside and you're at the water's edge. Participants find themselves opening up naturally.
Close enough to reach easily, yet the moment you arrive, something shifts. The first step into a different world for your participants.
A counter kitchen made for gathering around. Good for food-focused programs and everyday cooking alike. Dinner through the 1F restaurant is also available as an option.
The sauna can be incorporated into your schedule — a reset for participants' minds and bodies.
Cut off from the rhythms of everyday life, with only nature around you. That itself can be the core of a retreat.
Finding a place to stay while running a retreat is its own challenge. If you're looking for affordable accommodation for your team, let's talk.

Voice
The feeling of the sea right there, the gentle atmosphere of the space. Participants opened up sooner than usual — I was reminded again of how much a place can do.
The kitchen was spacious and easy to work in — I was able to run exactly the food program I'd imagined. Watching participants naturally start talking through cooking together was something special.
If anything comes to mind, please don't hesitate to ask.
