Kawana Hotel

This was my second stay, returning to collect a stamp for the Classic Hotel Passport. My previous visit was also in June two years ago, and once again it was a wonderful stay during the beautiful season of fresh greenery.It seems the Room has been renovated, and it was much more beautifully maintained than when I last visited. For that reason, I gave full marks—five stars across the board this time.For meals, we had Japanese cuisine for dinner and Western-style breakfast. Since we skipped lunch, I got quite hungry after being picked up at Ito Station at 1:00 p.m. and then relaxing in the hot-bathing Facility called Brisa Marina. Because last orders at the grill are at 3:00 p.m., we had a Japanese lunch there—and I was pleasantly surprised by how reasonably priced it was for a Hotel lunch.Although it was Japanese cuisine, they even brewed coffee for us after the meal; it was wonderfully aromatic and delicious.All three meals were truly excellent—exactly what you would expect from a Hotel.The spectacular view from Brisa Marina and the refreshing breeze true to its name were incredibly pleasant, and as always, the staff were full of hospitality. It made for another truly lovely stay.When you complete the Classic Hotel Passport, you receive a voucher for one free night’s stay, and my spouse and I have been talking about coming back to Kawana Hotel to experience this wonderful stay again.Thank you very much for taking such great care of us.

This was the last Hotel on my classic Hotel tour. At check-in, I was told a larger Room was available and kindly upgraded (thank you). What I felt during my stay is that a Hotel is all about the people. The staff’s hospitality was wonderful, and in particular, the smiles of the young female employees were lovely. The Onsen while looking out at the sea was very relaxing, and being able to watch the sunrise from the bath was an incredibly luxurious experience. As for drawbacks: the Wi-Fi signal was weak and I noticed it had disconnected; breakfast was tasty, but I didn’t feel it matched the price; and since it was during summer vacation season, I was bothered by some families’ poor manners. The night pool bar under a starry sky was also great, so next time I’d like to visit in the off-season.
