About a 40-minute drive from Unzen Onsen. Shiofune Resort features an open-air bath with views of the Ariake Sea.
A seaside Property nestled in the water city of Shimabara Onsen, abundant with pure spring water. From Shimabara's premier natural open-air bath, you can enjoy breathtaking views of the sparkling blue Ariake Sea, Shimabara Bay, and a 1,000-tsubo garden, offering an unparalleled location. With an abundant water supply, indulge in a variety of Onsen experiences such as "Sky Open-Air Bath ~ Ariake Sea" and "Panoramic View of Shimabara Bay ~ Golden Bath." Additionally, the sunrise over Kumamoto on the opposite shore is a spectacular power spot, highly popular in Reviews. Savor a kaiseki meal rich in local flavors, featuring fresh seasonal ingredients from the Shimabara Peninsula and Unzen. Located just about 40 minutes by car from Japan's first national park, Unzen Onsen. By ferry, it takes as little as 30 minutes from Kumamoto Port, and as fast as 120 minutes from Fukuoka Tenjin. We look forward to welcoming you to this seaside resort with ocean breezes.
On a whim, we decided to take a refreshing getaway and made a same-day Reservation at Nampuro, which we’d been curious about for some time. It was our first trip in a while, and while we were excited, we tried not to set our expectations too high when we checked in—but the moment we stepped inside, our excitement just kept growing! We stayed in Grand Oceans, and from the instant we got off the elevator—seeing the wide selection of drinks and light snacks—and walked down the beautifully atmospheric hallway, then opened the door to our room… everything was amazing. One “This is incredible!” after another. A bath with an ocean view, delicious meals, relaxing in the room with drinks—it was exactly the refreshing trip we had been looking for. Since it was raining, it wasn’t quite a breathtaking view this time, but we found ourselves saying, “Next time let’s come when it’s sunny,” and ended up promising each other another stay! Thank you for such a wonderful time. We’ll be back!!
夫婦旅行！！！ 9/21/2026Due to a change of plans, I made a Reservation the day before. It was a rainy day and I arrived early, but I was able to choose a book from the many available and enjoy reading at a relaxed pace with a cup of coffee in hand. The spacious bath, especially the bubble bath, was very soothing. The meals were so plentiful that I couldn’t finish everything. The sunrise the next morning was beautiful. There were also goats and rabbits, and if it were closer, it’s a place where I’d love to bring my dog for a Multiple Night Stay.
