Sumiko Funaki has created an easy living atmosphere on the secluded island of Shiraishi.


The Chugoku area of Honshu and Shikoku Islands contains the prized Seto Inland Sea National Park which, in turn, boasts its own Okayama International Villa on Shiraishi Island. The warm yet spacious design of the villa complements the serenity of life on the secluded island. Time spent exploring the traditional Japanese village, traversing the island's mountains, or relaxing by the sea will bring you back to a quieter, simpler time.

SHIRAISHI ISLAND

Accessible only by ferry, Shiraishi Island is a secluded haven in the sparkling Seto Inland Sea. The epitome of a traditional Japanese village can be found here, enveloped in the fresh sea breeze. The irresistible charm of this island takes you back to a quieter, simpler time.

The covered patio makes a great setting to chat as the sea breezes roll past on a warm summer evening.
