Chikura Tsunagu Hotel is the perfect place for families wanting to enjoy nature and the outdoors. The hotel is located in an area surrounded by the extensive seas and primeval woodlands of Minamiboso, Chiba Prefecture.

This brand-new hotel opened in 2019 as a place for parents and their children to experience local nature and culture first-hand. It’s located in Chikuracho, a two-hour drive from Tokyo via the Aqua-Line Expressway.

The hotel’s vast grounds are home to three types of guestrooms: standard (max. 4 people, 8 rooms), family (max. 14 people, 2 rooms), and tent (max. 4 people, 5 rooms). The tent is especially popular as it allows guests to sleep outside, in the heart of nature, while enjoying the salty breeze, the sounds of the waves, and the starry night sky of Minamiboso.
