Editorial policy

This page outlines our core editorial policy.

1. What we list (and don't)

We cover premium private rental villas in Japan, focusing on facts, amenities, capacity, price range, area. We don't write articles whose purpose is to funnel bookings to a specific property, we take no bookings ourselves, and we only link out to each property's official site.

2. Verification

Facts are compiled from official sites and checks with the properties; sources are listed on every villa page. Listings unverified for over 180 days are internally flagged for re-verification.

3. No affiliate booking links

Booking links point only to each property's official site. We do not use OTA or affiliate booking links, so advertising revenue has no bearing on whether or how a property is listed or evaluated. PR/tie-up articles always carry a PR badge at the top.

4. Analytics

We use Google Analytics to understand aggregate site usage (page views, link clicks). Data is collected per Google's privacy policy; no personally identifying information is entered by us.

5. Corrections

For corrections, listing or removal requests, please use the contact form.
