🚉 Location Perks: Izu Access, Nature at Your Door

The Akazawa area is a lush, elevated resort zone on the east coast of the Izu Peninsula, adjacent to Izu-Kōgen, and known for its dramatic coastline, warm climate, and peaceful environment. You’re 6.5 km by car or taxi to Izu-Kōgen Station, and an easy drive to Akazawa Bay, the Akazawa Day-use Onsen, your local post office, and nearby stores.

A car is strongly recommended for this area, and there’s plenty of room to park on site. The elevated terrain rewards you with panoramic views and cool ocean breezes year-round.

🌿 Why Akazawa?

Located at the eastern edge of Ito City, the Akazawa area is a hidden gem, popular for resort homes and peaceful retirement or vacation living.

The neighborhood sits high above the sea, offering mountain and ocean views from many properties, a mild climate with ocean breezes in summer, and quiet, low-traffic roads with lush greenery. Living in Akazawa means easy access to local onsen, hiking trails, and Izu’s many nature parks.

Akazawa’s slow pace and fresh air offer a different rhythm of life, deeply rooted in Japan’s natural beauty.
