A resort with panoramic views of the Sea of Japan through pine forests, featuring buffet dining and open-air hot springs.

An accommodation boasting a stunning location with the white sandy Sea of Japan set against a backdrop of pine forests. From the shared spaces, you can enjoy panoramic views of the majestic sea and sunsets, as well as the ever-changing expressions of the ocean each day. The buffet offers a variety of Japanese, Western, and Chinese dishes featuring fresh seasonal delicacies. Additionally, guests can relax in an open-air bath surrounded by forest or enjoy a panoramic view of the Sea of Japan from an observation bath. Rooms with excellent views provide sweeping vistas of the Sea of Japan, allowing you to experience its dynamic and grand beauty that changes with seasons and weather conditions.

  • Although the building is old, the Room is thoroughly cleaned and very tidy.We stayed during the Obon holidays, and it was very helpful that they provided a Shuttle Service to the beach. They also picked us up from the beach on the way back.The breakfast and dinner buffet was excellent, with crab and sashimi. We plan to visit again next year.

  • 1) Front desk check-in was smooth, and the staff were welcoming from the moment we arrived. Late checkout at 11:00 was also appreciated. 2) Dinner: There was a wide variety of dishes, and everything tasted great. The all-you-can-eat crab was larger than I expected. On the other hand, each table had its own robatayaki grill, which almost felt like a waste! 3) Breakfast: Rather than having one person dedicated to making omelets (the main recommendation?), I felt it would have been better if refills were brought out more quickly. 4) Bath: I would have preferred the water temperature to be a bit hotter (though it depends on personal preference, and it still warmed me up). 5) View: We could see the Sea of Japan, and it had a wonderful atmosphere. Overall, we were very satisfied and able to relax at our own pace. We would love to visit again.
