Seaside Inn Kaike Kikunoya

We chose this Accommodation because it had high ratings for its meals and service in Reviews. We were a little worried whether our growing children would be satisfied, but in the end we were extremely happy. The elaborate appetizers won over our whole family, and we were impressed by the careful craftsmanship that didn’t simply rely on the quality of the ingredients. We could feel the attentive care of the proprietress and all the staff throughout our stay, which made it very comfortable. It doesn’t have the kind of Facilities you’d find at a large Hotel, but when we visit Tottori again, I’m sure we’ll stay here again.

I stayed in late July. I didn’t realize the location was this close to the sea, and I was truly impressed by the calm Sea of Japan views from my room at both sunset and sunrise. The free-flowing natural Onsen was wonderful, but perhaps because many guests used it after spending time at the beach, I noticed sand making the changing area feel gritty. (I really appreciated that it had been cleaned by the next time I went.) From check-in to check-out, the staff’s warm smiles and attentive service left a lasting impression. At dinner, the owner (?) also came to greet each table, which I thought was excellent. Luckily, my stay coincided with a fireworks display day, so I was able to enjoy an unexpected and lovely moment. Both dinner and breakfast were delicious—seafood really is amazing. Next time, I’d love to visit during crab season. It was a wonderful Accommodation that made me want to return. Thank you very much.
