Wakura Onsen Okudaya

With 120 years of heritage, Wakura Onsen “Okudaya” has been reborn as a private villa retreat—limited to four parties per day, with an open-air bath in every standalone villa. All guest rooms are independent, whole-villa rentals. Enjoy complete privacy with your own entrance, soak in the waters of Wakura, and head into town to savor Noto cuisine—an ideal stay that separates lodging from dining. Quiet hot springs, refined accommodations, and the pleasure of exploring Wakura. Experience a special time unique to Okudaya—a modern reinterpretation of the Onsen healing culture that has continued for 120 years.

Okudaya offers four fully detached private villas. With only four parties per day, you can relax without worrying about your surroundings—enjoying the comfort and privacy of your own secluded retreat. Every Room features a free-flowing open-air hot spring bath fed directly from the source, along with a calm Japanese-modern design and comfortable amenities. Soak whenever you like and unwind in a soothing space surrounded by the warmth of tatami and the natural texture of wood. Some Rooms also include a kitchen and washing machine, making them ideal for a Multiple Night Stay or a workcation.

Wakura Onsen is a rare, highly concentrated chloride spring that wells up from the sea—uncommon even across The whole country. Long cherished as a therapeutic hot spring, it is also expected to offer benefits such as heat retention, antibacterial properties, and skin-beautifying effects. At Okudaya, you can enjoy one of the few free-flowing natural hot springs in Wakura Onsen in the open-air bath of every Room. Because the source water is very hot, we preserve the traditional method of adjusting the temperature by controlling the volume of water, keeping the spring’s natural qualities as intact as possible. In your private open-air bath, unwind at your own pace in this renowned seawater-rich Onsen and enjoy a soothing time that relaxes both body and mind.
