Sado Island, where this property is located, is the largest island in the Sea of Japan, with an area approximately 1.4 times that of Tokyo's 23 wards and a coastline stretching 280 km. The island is renowned for its abundant seafood and mountain produce, offering delicious ingredients year-round. A fascinating natural fact is that the island is a habitat for the Japanese crested ibis (toki), a natural monument.
