Izu Kyu Community Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Ito City, Shizuoka Prefecture, Representative Director: Akihiro Nomoto) will grand open "CHILLYU," a private villa accommodation facility created by regenerating and utilizing vacant land in the Izu Kogen area, on July 18, 2026 (Sat).CHILLYU is a private villa for one group per day, with a capacity of 6 people, based on the concept of "an experience where mind and body unwind with the rich blessings of Izu's hot springs." In a location surrounded by the rich natural environment and tranquility of Izu Kogen, we offer a stay experience where the accommodation itself becomes the purpose of the journey.■ Origin of the Facility Name and FeaturesCHILLYU is a coined word that combines "CHILL," representing the act of relaxing, with "YU (hot spring)," a characteristic of Japan's hot spring culture.This facility is a private villa located on a quiet site about a 7-minute drive from Izu Kogen Station. Its greatest feature, leveraging our company's strength in the hot spring supply business, is "3 flowing hot springs." The terrace is equipped with a "Terrace Bath" (for use with swimwear) and a barrel sauna. Furthermore, it is fully equipped with an "Indoor Bath" and an "Open-Air Bath" for relaxation in a private space, realizing a high-quality relaxation space where you can refresh your mind and body while feeling the nature of Izu.In addition, the building adopts a split-building configuration with a "Living Building" for enjoying interaction with family and friends, and a "Relaxation Building" for unwinding.The Living Building, characterized by its high ceilings, includes a kitchen equipped with comprehensive appliances and cooking utensils, and a large projector, creating a space where you can enjoy meals and gatherings in a relaxed atmosphere.The Relaxation Building offers bedrooms for a relaxing time, as well as an indoor bath and an open-air bath for unwinding in a private space. The hot spring water is weakly alkaline and has been certified as "POLA Beautiful Skin Hot Spring Certification (Melting Purifying Hot Spring)," characterized by its smooth quality for the skin.Living Building with High CeilingsIndoor and Open-Air Baths for Relaxation in a Private SpaceThe terrace connecting both buildings expands the stage of your stay outdoors, serving as a space to enjoy the unique scenery and air of Izu with all five senses.At CHILLYU, we value each guest's individual rhythm of stay and propose a free stay style where you can spend your time as you wish, rather than fixed meal times.As part of our hospitality, we have prepared a welcome service so you can enjoy a special time from the moment you arrive.We will provide 1 pound of Shizuoka-grown beef, freshly baked baguette, three types of wine (red, white, and sparkling), sparkling juice, and mineral water so you can fully enjoy the sauna and hot springs.You can enjoy a free and high-quality time at your own pace, surrounded by the rich nature of Izu, sharing meals with loved ones, raising glasses, and refreshing your mind and body in the hot springs and sauna.1 Pound of Shizuoka-Grown Beef Provided as a Welcome ServiceBeverages to Enjoy with Meals, etc.■ Initiatives for Regional Revitalization Through Utilization of Idle Real EstateWe position this project not merely as "just an accommodation facility," but as a new business model that enhances the value of idle real estate such as vacant lots and empty houses. By reusing idle assets, which are increasing due to population decline and aging, as "regional resources," we aim to improve the attractiveness of subdivided land and enhance regional value.CHILLYU is positioned as a model case that creates new accommodation value by maximizing regional resources such as nature, hot springs, and scenery that Izu Kogen possesses, as well as services from regional businesses. It aims not only for profitability as a lodging business but also for the improvement of the region's overall appeal.We will continue to pursue sustainable tourism and real estate utilization methods in collaboration with the region.[About "CHILLYU"]Opening Date: July 18, 2026 (Saturday)Official Website: https://chillyu.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/chillyu.izu/Location: 1105-41 Hachiman-no, Ito City, Shizuoka PrefectureAccess: Approximately 7 minutes by car from Izu Kogen Station on the Izu Kyu LineAccommodation Type: Private Villa Rental FacilityRoom Capacity: 6 peopleTotal Floor Area: 115.76m2Site Area: 616.63m2Parking: For 2 carsReservation Method: Please book through the facility's official website or international online travel agents.Design and Supervision: Matsushika Design Studio Co., Ltd.Design Cooperation: float Inc.Construction: Izu Kyu Housing Co., Ltd.Operation: Izu Kyu Community Co., Ltd.■ Izu Kyu Community Co., Ltd.Location: 1151 Hachiman-no, Ito City, Shizuoka PrefectureRepresentative: Akihiro Nomoto, Representative DirectorBusiness Activities: Real estate, subdivided land management, hot spring supply, insurance agency, energy business, resort facility operation and management consignment business, accommodation facility operation business, retail business, fishery product processing and sales, etc.Establishment Date: December 18, 1991Website: https://work-life.izukyucom.co.jpAbove
