  • We stayed here for an anniversary trip as a couple. Since we both love saunas, we chose this Accommodation.In a word: “The most satisfying Accommodation we’ve ever stayed at”!From check-in to meals to check-out, all the staff were consistently courteous and attentive, and we felt comfortable from start to finish.What surprised us first when we entered the Room was how well stocked everything was—amenities and even complimentary items in the refrigerator. It was the first time we’d experienced such generous hospitality, and both of us kept saying, “Wow!” the whole time.The sauna we’d been looking forward to exceeded our expectations. During self löyly, a gentle roasted green tea aroma filled the space and was incredibly relaxing. The outdoor cooling area was also very comfortable, and we were able to unwind so much that we lost track of time. If you love saunas, I highly recommend trying it at least once.Both the Italian course dinner and the Japanese breakfast were truly excellent—we were completely satisfied. Not only were they beautifully presented, but every dish was delicious, with just the right portions so we could enjoy everything through to the end. It was our first time having a course meal so I felt a little nervous at first, but that made it an even more special memory.The overall atmosphere of the Accommodation was wonderful as well—enjoying the sauna, reading together, having unhurried conversations… Because there’s no clock or TV here, we could forget our usual busy routine and spend truly luxurious time together. The Room was spacious too—calm and very relaxing.If I had to mention one thing: since we stayed in summer, the open-air bath used as a cold plunge felt slightly lukewarm. I think it’s seasonal though—next time I’d like to visit in autumn or winter and enjoy an even more refreshing sauna experience.This is an Accommodation I genuinely recommend for anyone who wants to spend quiet time indoors or refresh while forgetting everyday busyness.Our anniversary became an unforgettable memory. We would absolutely love to stay again—thank you so much for your wonderful hospitality.

  • I stayed here with a friend.From the courteous explanation at reception to the welcome drink, the choice of three types of loungewear, and the complimentary ice cream and juices in the in-Room refrigerator, we were delighted by the excellent service.We stayed in Inamura-tei, and the Room had a wonderful woody scent and was impeccably clean.I also appreciated that the two beds had different sheet materials, so I could choose the one I preferred.With no TV or clock, it was easy to lose track of time, and simply gazing at the garden felt incredibly comfortable. It helped me truly relax away from my busy daily life.Our Room was attached to a restaurant; we could hear some lively voices around dinner time, but it wasn’t bothersome.The sauna we were looking forward to was clean and nicely hot, and we loved everything including the cold plunge bath and bath!Sauna hats and ponchos are also provided, so you can enjoy a full sauna session even without bringing anything.Checkout is set relatively late at 11:00, so we were able to use the sauna again in the morning—an extremely satisfying stay overall.The surrounding area was very quiet, like an old residential neighborhood, but with a short walk you can reach the coast. It’s also a lovely town for strolling.I would love to visit again if I have another opportunity.Next time I’ll also dine at the restaurant.Thank you very much.
