A nostalgic, Japanese-classical seaside villa standing at Keino Matsubara, one of Japan’s Top 100 Sunset Spots
Awaji Hamarikyu, a classic Japanese resort standing in the scenic Keino Matsubara, which is listed among Japan's Top 100 Sunsets. The beautiful scenery, once celebrated in the ancient Manyoshu poetry collection, continues to captivate travelers even today. Awaji Island has long been allowed to offer its products to the Imperial family as Miketsukuni, and it nurtures an abundance of seasonal ingredients from its sea and land. Uzushio Onsen Ten no Yu is sourced from the southern part of the island and is renowned for its smooth skin feel and heat retention effects. Poets who visited this place in ancient times left behind poems inspired by their experiences here; they spent time at Matsuho embraced by Awaji Island's rich nature that cleansed their spirits. We hope that modern visitors to Awaji Hamarikyu will also enjoy a peaceful holiday that soothes both body and mind.
Every summer, my husband and I look forward to enjoying the Awaji Island conger eel course. We have tried it at other Hotels and restaurants before, but Hamari-kyu’s course is by far the most delicious. This year, we tried Awaji Island wine for the first time; it paired well with Japanese cuisine, and we enjoyed it along with sake. As expected of Awaji Island—a treasure trove of ingredients—its onions and other vegetables, fruits, beef, and seafood have long earned it the name “Miketsukuni.” As long as we are still healthy, we would like to drive here together and stay at your Accommodation. We are also looking forward to the winter three-year pufferfish.The book about Awaji Island in our Room, published by the proprietress, was filled with love for Awaji Island. In particular, I read with great interest the section on Teiko Inahata; my haiku teacher is a member of Hototogisu and has told me about her character. We are truly grateful to have received such a wonderful book unexpectedly.
チョコエクレア 7/7/2026Since last year, I have been seriously ill. During post-surgery treatment, I lost my hair. After finishing treatment, I waited for my strength to return and was finally able to travel again. However, my head is still shaved and I didn’t have the courage to use the large public bath, so I was looking for an Accommodation with an open-air bath in the Room.I was able to relax at a leisurely pace.The food was delicious,and all the staff were kind.Thank you very much.
