The beach was right in front of us, and from the rooftop Onsen pool we had a panoramic view over Karatsu city. We were welcomed with a cake, and there were also sweets in our Room, plus a whole lineup of ice cream before the bath. The breakfast buffet was so plentiful we couldn’t finish it, with an excellent selection of desserts as well. As expected from Chateraise—I wished we could have stayed one more night.

The Room had a great view, and the large public bath was very relaxing. Also, being able to use the rental bicycles was helpful, as it allowed us to visit places that are difficult to reach on foot.

This was not just a clean Accommodation, but a place that felt like a “second home,” filled with warmth and thoughtfulness. In every corner of the Room, we could feel the host’s care and affection, and throughout our stay we felt comfortable and genuinely welcomed. The meals were also truly outstanding. Each dish was prepared with great care and sincerity—delicious, and an unforgettable taste. We had a truly wonderful time and are sincerely grateful. We would love to visit again.

Last time, I was moved by the beautiful sunset I could see during dinner, and I also wanted to eat Yobuko squid again, so whenever I go to Yobuko, I choose to stay at this Hotel. Unfortunately, due to the weather, we couldn’t see the sunset this time. We also weren’t able to

My family stayed in the Premium Ocean View Room. The renovated Room was very comfortable, and the bench seating by the window was especially convenient. The live squid we were looking forward to was served as frozen squid due to the weather, but it was still delicious and we were fully satisfied and stuffed. It was a shame that the water in the large public bath was lukewarm, but overall our satisfaction level was high. The location is not easy to reach by public transportation, but if you transfer buses well you can get right to the front of the Ryokan (on the way back, we walked to Yobuko Port).

I chose this place to fully enjoy the JIN6 sauna. The Room was spacious and comfortable, with a calm atmosphere reminiscent of a traditional storehouse. The view of the inlet from the Room was wonderful, and I stretched out on the daybed-like sofa by the window and enjoyed the long twilight. Since there is no dining option at this Accommodation, I made a dinner Reservation at a nearby Accommodation and enjoyed squid dishes, then had a seafood rice bowl at a local diner for breakfast. The sauna is available to guests for 1,000 yen anytime until 1:00 p.m. the next day, and because it’s such an enjoyable sauna, I was really glad I could use it many times. Now that I know it’s easier than expected to get here from Fukuoka Airport by bus or train, I’d love to visit again in another season.
