Amagi Onsenkyo × Sulfate Onsen AccommodationRecommended Hotel·Ryokan

Nestled in Izu’s abundant nature, Ochiairo has been cherished by many renowned writers and cultural figures since the Meiji era. An open-air bath overlooking the ever-changing mountains and the gentle murmur of the Kano River, an atmospheric cave bath, and serene indoor baths offer guests the ultimate relaxation. In two distinct saunas—both recipients of a Sauna Schwitz award—enjoy a one-of-a-kind “totonoi” experience with outdoor cooling as you feel the breeze of Izu. Savor seasonal cuisine made with generous use of local ingredients blessed by Izu’s rich land and sea, and enjoy the changing seasons through taste as well. Spend unhurried moments in our lounge warmed by the flicker of the fireplace, or relax in your Room as your mind unwinds. Help yourself freely to local Shizuoka craft beer, carefully selected wines, and thoughtfully chosen snacks to your heart’s content. Timeless beauty preserved in cultural heritage meets refined modern hospitality to welcome every guest. Experience a stay found only at Ochiairo—one that sets both body and mind free.

A serene accommodation nestled by the murmuring stream of Oku-Amagi. The forest trees cover the valley, yet the bright sunlight of Izu reaches down to illuminate the stream, reflecting a lush green landscape. This area, known as Sekokyo Gorge, offers seasonal scenery that is one of its many charms. The name of our accommodation, "Tanigawa no Yu Asebino," is derived from the abundance of Japanese andromeda (asebi) in this region. The flower language of asebi is "Let's travel together." We warmly invite you to visit Tanigawa no Yu Asebino with your loved one. Free from extravagant decorations or entertainment elements, this place offers a luxurious flow of time. Please seek a moment filled with serenity and elegance at our natural retreat-like accommodation.

Embark on a journey solely to savor that cuisine. This could be considered the most luxurious and leisurely adult travel experience. Arcana Izu aspires to be the destination for such discerning guests. Delight in exquisite cuisine and warm hospitality. Spend a rejuvenating time for both body and mind at Arcana Izu.

At our Accommodation, our team includes not only Japanese staff but also staff from across Asia, each offering hospitality that draws on the best of their own cultures. We provide a relaxing space where you can unwind while enjoying the charm of different cultures. Loved by many literary figures since 1954 and known as a writers’ inn, the property has a calm, refined atmosphere. All Onsen baths—including the bath in your Room—are free-flowing directly from the source. After soaking in our open-air stone bath made from 53 tons of lava rock or our open-air wooden bath carved from a 1,200-year-old tree, enjoy our signature dishes featuring fresh seafood and mountain produce from Izu. A walk along the Amagi Promenade reveals timeless mountain-village scenery.

Located within the grounds of the Jigen-in Temple, this Property is run by the temple's head priest's wife as the hostess and their daughter as the young hostess. Rather than operating as a traditional "shukubo" (temple lodging), this Property has a long history of welcoming guests from both Japan and abroad as a youth hostel, offering a familial and casual atmosphere that is its charm. Centered around the bright and energetic young hostess, the staff includes a variety of individuals such as surfers who deeply love the Izu sea and trainees from top international companies working for a few weeks. Conversations with these diverse staff members are sure to become an unforgettable part of your journey. At times, you may even see the staff's children appearing in the dining area, being affectionately greeted by regular guests with a "You've grown so much!"—a scene that evokes the warmth of staying at a relative's home. Except for some Rooms equipped with beds, futons are self-service. Meals are also partially self-service, so it may not suit those seeking fully catered services. However, the Property takes great care in hospitality, such as sourcing only pesticide-free vegetables and selecting Izu's specialty "kinmedai" (golden eye snapper) weighing over 1.2kg with rich flavor, ensuring guests' satisfaction. When you want to experience the joy of connecting with people or savor the simple blessings of nature, we invite you to visit this Property.
