The Facility is clean and excellent. Being able to enjoy a barbecue with an ocean view is also fantastic. The value for money is outstanding. However, the number of insects is a bit concerning, and it would be greatly appreciated if there were an option to check in a little earlier.

We stayed here during Silver Week. The interior design, furniture, and furnishings were excellent, and the place was thoroughly cleaned and very comfortable—we truly enjoyed the villa-style stay. However, since we arrived in the evening tired from golf and sightseeing, we didn’t feel like cooking inside the Facility. We planned to eat at a nearby Japanese restaurant, but it was closed that day, and many restaurants in the area have last orders shortly after 7:00 p.m., so despite what should have been an elegant stay, we ended up having dinner at a curry shop at a nearby roadside station—an unfortunate (maybe?) outcome. There are large supermarkets just a few minutes away by car, so if you feel like cooking you won’t have any trouble; also, if you have an early dinner somewhere beforehand, I don’t think you’ll find many stays as pleasant as this one. If I get the chance, I’d like to try again.

I was looking for a Hotel near Farm Tomita for my trip to Furano and found this place. The owner couple was kind and attentive, the Room was clean and comfortable. The lighting was well-placed, making the Room bright and pleasant. Thank you very much!

The location was excellent, and I had a very comfortable stay. It would be perfect if there was a TV. I would love to stay here again when visiting Kamakura.

We stayed as a family of five for a birthday trip. The narrow path from the parking lot to Lapita Resort is a bit challenging, but the moment we opened the door and saw the breathtaking ocean view, we were amazed. Not only that, but there was also a spacious wooden deck with a pool about 60cm deep, which made our kids absolutely thrilled! At night, the area was beautifully lit up; however, this attracted an unusual number of beetles diving into the pool, making it quite an effort to remove them. The sauna was equipped with sauna suits and hats for everyone in our group, allowing us to enjoy it comfortably. There is also access to the coastline through another door; however, please be cautious as there are many sea insects in that area. Overall, every angle offered photo-worthy views and we had such a wonderful time. We would love to stay here again in the future. Thank you very much!

The space was refined and simple, very clean, and extremely comfortable. The kids were very happy too! We only came back to sleep, so we couldn’t use the sauna—unfortunately. We visited in summer for a Multiple Night Stay, but the weather was bad and the temperature was low, so the indoor temperature didn’t rise much. Since everything is connected through an open atrium and the beams are exposed, I wonder about how well it maintains indoor temperatures in both summer and winter. Also, the bathroom had only amenities, a shower, and a bathtub, so I would have liked at least one wash basin. It felt like an overseas Hotel. And because it was a Multiple Night Stay, I also wished there had been something like a small sponge to do a bit of cleaning in the bathroom. I wrote down these requests as well, but it was a quiet place and only about 30 minutes from central Sendai. If I have another chance, I’d love to stay again at a more relaxed pace. Thank you!!!

For our summer trip to Shimane Prefecture, we chose Matsudairakaku based on everyone’s Reviews. The spacious, spotless Room connected to the garden was wonderful, and dinner was truly more than we could finish—we looked forward to it every night. They also had a great selection of local sake, and we ended up drinking a bit too much. When sightseeing, they shared recommended routes that only locals would know. On our last day, since we had an early departure, they kindly prepared breakfast earlier for us as well—we apologize for the inconvenience. Everything was perfect, and it made for a fantastic trip to Shimane. We would love to stay again if we have the chance.

Since it was a No Meals Included plan, we were able to stay at a very reasonable price, and we could also use the wonderful dog run and pool. Throughout the Hotel, we could feel the staff’s kindness and consideration toward dogs, which made our stay very comfortable.

The villa was more spacious and cleaner than we expected—almost too luxurious for just the two of us. The large open-air bath outside was wonderfully relaxing, and we enjoyed the Onsen while feeling close to nature, soaking many times. Mt. Yufu looked beautiful right in front of us, and the indoor Onsen bath was also great. We only had breakfast, but it was prepared in the refrigerator, so we could eat at whatever time we liked in the kitchen, and it was delicious. We’d love to stay again in a different season.

We planned this trip to visit a restaurant that is only open on weekends and public holidays. While looking for a nearby Ryokan, we noticed the radon bath and “Arashi no Yu,” and decided to stay here. We made a Reservation for three adults on the standard course. Dinner was generous, with simmered local fish, grilled dishes, tempura, and more. The simmered flounder was especially delicious with white rice. Breakfast was also classic Japanese—grilled fish, vinegared dishes, kinpira, and more. The white rice paired perfectly with everything. “Arashi no Yu” is different from both a stone spa and a sauna. Lying down on the floor covered with small stones made us sweat heavily; sweat poured out from our pores and left our skin smooth. Unlike a typical stone spa, the pebbles provide comfortable cushioning so you can lie down easily. In the radon bath area, the bathing room and tub are separated so the steam collects around the tub. We kept sweating even while soaking, and even after getting out we stayed warm for a long time. Both “Arashi no Yu” and the radon bath can make you feel very tired at first, but we slept deeply until morning and enjoyed truly restful sleep. Smooth skin, warm body, refreshed awakening—our fatigue melted away. It felt like toxins were released along with the sweat! The proprietress recommended karaoke after dinner; singing on a stage with full sound equipment was great fun. The staff’s thoughtful attention to detail was excellent throughout. This is a Ryokan we would love to stay at again next time. The restaurant we came for was 5 minutes away by car; we were able to get an early number ticket and enjoy lunch without any trouble.

Amenities for all 10 of us were provided, allowing us to enjoy a relaxing morning bath. The sauna was also a highlight—3 adults used it at once with plenty of room to spare, so we ended up staying longer than expected. Although the parking is listed as fitting three cars, it

Thank you very much for your hospitality. The three of us—my 92-year-old mother, my husband, and I—found and chose this Accommodation online, and everything was excellent. We were able to relax in the renovated Japanese-style Room and bedroom. Although it is an Accommodation where you can stay with your dog, it felt very clean, and it seemed that every corner was thoroughly cleaned. The meals were also very delicious, and the boat platter was more than we could finish. It was disappointing that we couldn’t go cruising due to the typhoon, but since it was before summer vacation there were no crowds, we could get around smoothly, and we fully enjoyed a wonderful trip to Izu. Thank you again. We would love to stay here again.

We stayed as a family of three. The spaciousness of the facility was more surprising than we imagined. Since we traveled around various places from Wakkanai, the washing machine was a great help. We prepared dinner with ingredients purchased in Kitami. We used the bath and breakfast services at Kitakobushi. It was nice to spend a quiet weekend. The check-in process was a bit troublesome, and we struggled because the entrance wouldn't open even when we needed to use the restroom. It felt easier to check in at Kitakobushi. We've experienced renting an entire building a few times, but Lantern Shiretoko offered a wonderful space. Thank you for the great experience.

Although I arrived about 40 minutes later than my 21:00 check-in Reservation, I was warmly welcomed and was able to use the bath until 22:00. The breakfast was also very delicious. I will definitely use this place again when visiting Mitoyo City. Thank you very much!

We signed up for the sunset cruise at check-in. The beautiful sunset and the owner’s easy-to-follow stories made it a truly valuable experience. The cruise time changes depending on the sunset. Breakfast was also plentiful, with homemade dried fish and yogurt, among other items. We were completely full. It seems to be family-run, and everyone was kind and welcoming—such a warm Accommodation. Thank you very much.

Thank you for taking care of us during our visit home to my parents. 　 When I made the Reservation, I didn’t know there would be a fireworks festival on our stay date, and only realized it the day before. I called to ask about traffic restrictions, and your staff explained everything very kindly, which allowed us to head there with peace of mind. 　 At check-in, the parking area and how to use the Facility were explained clearly, and we also received helpful advice related to the fireworks festival. The service was very pleasant. I also accidentally left my car key at the counter, but you went out of your way to find it and bring it back to me—thank you very much. 　 The Room was spacious and well maintained, so we were able to stay comfortably. However, since it is a pension-style Accommodation, soundproofing is slightly weak. We could hear children from a family staying upstairs running around. The noise continued past the designated quiet time (10:00 PM), so I informed a staff member; after a while it quieted down, so I believe you took some kind of action. 　 The location is convenient: there is a 24-hour supermarket nearby as well as public baths and restaurants, so even with No Meals Included we had no trouble at all. Cooking utensils, tableware, and an IH cooktop are fully provided as well, so self-catering is not an issue. 　 Shirarahama Beach is about a 5-minute walk away, making it easy to go swimming in the sea. We were able to watch the fireworks up close that day and were extremely satisfied. 　 This was an Accommodation I would like to use again when I have another chance. Thank you very much!

I stayed with a two-meal plan, and not only dinner but also breakfast was delicious and generously portioned—I was completely full. The minestrone soup at breakfast left a particularly strong impression. Thank you for the wonderful meal! Also, the Accommodation was kept very clean, so I could spend my time comfortably. I could see the sunset from my Room, and even view Diamond Fuji from the dining room. It’s a truly lovely pension. It’s very reasonably priced for these days, and the value for money is excellent.

I stayed here for a solo getaway. In a quiet setting, I soaked in the Onsen, relaxed in the massage chair, and enjoyed meals full of creative touches—making it a trip with outstanding hospitality. It has become an unforgettable Accommodation for me. Thank you.

The view from the window as soon as we opened the front door was absolutely stunning! We enjoyed a relaxing time with the morning scenery and a peaceful walk by the sea. The atmosphere of the Room and furniture perfectly matched our taste, making it an unforgettable trip. W

We stayed here again for our dog’s 9th birthday—our first return visit in three years. The location is truly excellent: the sandy beach just a short walk away feels like a completely private beach at this time of year, and strolling along the shoreline at sunset lets you enjoy an extraordinary escape from everyday life. During our evening BBQ, we were also able to take in a sky full of stars that we didn’t get to see last time. It was only for one night again, but thank you for providing another wonderful place to make special memories with our dog!
