Laforet Ito Onsen Yuno Niwa

We stayed here last summer with our child and were very satisfied, so we returned again this year. The location is excellent—within a 10-minute walk of Ito Station and Orange Beach—and the Japanese-Western style room with an Onsen bath, plus a relaxed 12:00 checkout, made for an unhurried stay. This year as well, we fully enjoyed both swimming in the sea and the Onsen. Breakfast didn’t have a huge variety, but everything was delicious: rice cooked in a traditional kamado stove, freshly made rolled omelet and sea bream shabu-shabu, and freshly grilled dried horse mackerel. If I had to suggest one improvement, it would be nice to be able to choose the type of dried fish, or have a little extra such as handmade tofu or Onsen eggs. Overall we were very happy with our stay and would like to visit again.

We booked this Accommodation and Room fairly last-minute because everyone’s vacation dates finally lined up, and it turned into a comfortable, relaxing one-night, two-day stay.The in-room bath was clean and easy to use, and we all liked it so much that we used it several times.What really stood out this time was the food.Dinner was thoughtfully crafted, and the delicious flavors paired with the freshness of the theme made it truly enjoyable.The salt-grilled ayu was an unexpected highlight—fluffy, tender, and incredibly tasty.The junmai ginjo mentioned on the information card also paired perfectly with the meal.Breakfast was distinctive as well, starting with bonito dashi, which felt wonderfully fresh.The selection of dishes laid out—especially the Japanese options—was very satisfying and fun to try.In particular, the sea bream shabu-shabu was a favorite.To repeat myself, we thoroughly enjoyed a comfortable family one-night Onsen trip.
