Amakusa Shimoda Onsen Boyokaku

Kumamoto Prefecture／Amakusa

A sunset resort on the west coast of Amakusa, offering panoramic views of the East China Sea.

A seaside Accommodation in Amakusa you’ll want to return to again and again. Set in a spectacular location facing the west coast of Amakusa. From your room, enjoy the sunset sinking into the horizon of the East China Sea. Its beauty is so renowned that it has been selected as one of Japan’s “Top 100 Sunsets.” Our cuisine, featuring seasonal seafood such as spiny lobster, sea urchin, and abalone caught right in the waters before us, is highly praised by many guests. The flavors that honor each ingredient and our heartfelt hospitality are why guests keep coming back. Surrender to the gentle waters of historic Shimoda Onsen, and spend time unwinding both body and mind amid magnificent nature.

  • It was very good.

    I arrived a little early, and I truly appreciate how kindly all the staff treated me. Every dish was delicious and thoughtfully prepared. I would definitely like to stay here again when I visit the Amakusa area.

  • I really enjoyed my stay.

    This is a historic Onsen Hotel that even Emperor Showa is said to have visited. Its biggest highlight may be the sunset sinking into the sea. We were lucky to have clear weather between the rainy-season showers and enjoyed breathtaking views. We could also feel that everyone in charge of meal service, led by the young proprietress, worked with genuine hospitality. When we checked out and drove away, they waved until we were out of sight. It’s a Hotel I’d like to visit again.
