The Bentons purchased two akiyas (Japanese vacant house) in rural japan. One is their guesthouse and the other is their residence.
Join Evan + Dani Benton on their inspiring journey from an urban farm in New Orleans to the tranquil countryside of Ōmishima island, Japan. After traveling and house-sitting in Mexico, they received a Startup visa in Japan. Recently, they completed the renovation of two akiyas: one turned into a guesthouse listed on Airbnb, and the other into a ryokan (Japanese Inn). They also received a business manager visa, allowing them to embrace a homestead lifestyle while building a honeybee business.
Explore the Benton Guesthouse, a lovingly renovated Shōwa-era vacation rental just minutes from the Shimanami Kaido. Experience slow life in the Japanese countryside, surrounded by traditional charm and modern comforts.
Follow along as they share their journey of preserving traditional Japanese architecture and creating unique experiences for guests seeking an authentic countryside retreat.
