How many guests can stay at your private villas in Aso/Kumamoto?+
Each MOVA VILLA accommodates up to 6-8 guests. Larger groups (16+ guests) can book multiple adjacent villas. Our four areas — Haramizu, Okino, Ozu, and Koshi — all have neighboring villas, perfect for family trips and group travel.
Where are the villas located? How far from Mt. Aso?+
MOVA VILLA operates in four areas of Kumamoto Prefecture: Haramizu, Okino, Ozu, and Koshi. Mt. Aso is about 40-60 minutes by car, with easy access to Kumamoto City and Aso sightseeing spots.
How do large groups book multiple villas?+
Groups over 6 guests should book multiple adjacent villas. Haramizu 1 & 2 are adjacent, Okino 1-3 are adjacent, and Ozu 1-3 are side by side. Our availability search automatically suggests nearby villa combinations.
How far is Kumamoto (Aso Kumamoto) Airport?+
All four areas are about 15-25 minutes by car from Aso Kumamoto Airport — convenient for your first night after arrival or last night before departure.
How far is the TSMC Kumamoto fab (JASM)?+
Our Ozu and Haramizu areas are closest to JASM in Kikuyo, about 5-15 minutes by car — ideal for business travelers. Each villa is fully private, so you can truly relax after work. For long-term business stays, contact us via our official Line account.
Do I need a rental car?+
