NOT A HOTEL SETOUCHI: A Fusion of Nature, Architecture, and Tranquility

Set atop a cliff in the Seto Inland Sea, NOT A HOTEL SETOUCHI offers a peaceful escape where Japanese tradition merges with modern design. Created by renowned architect Bjarke Ingels and his team at BIG, this unique retreat features three villas on the remote island of Sagi, each reflecting elements of the natural surroundings and traditional Japanese architecture. Known for its cultural significance in art and architecture, Setouchi now welcomes this architectural gem, limited to just 36 guests. Each villa provides a distinct experience: one floats above the sea, mimicking the calmness of water; another offers sweeping panoramic views from its circular summit structure; the third fosters a sense of community with a design focused around fire. This exclusive destination, available for purchase in summer 2024, invites guests to experience a private peninsula, surrounded by the tranquil beauty of the Seto Inland Sea.
