시마 × 만족도 평가가 높은 호텔·료칸

I was finally able to stay at Shima Kanko Hotel The Bay Suite, which I had long admired. It was an even more wonderful holiday than I expected. The staff’s service, the cuisine, and the Room were all outstanding—I was truly impressed. If I have the opportunity, I would love to visit again. Thank you very much for taking such great care of me.

Just as past Reviews said, the food was simply outstanding. The seafood in particular was superb—I couldn’t help saying “So delicious” with every bite. Even though it’s a Hotel, each dish was carefully served one by one like a restaurant course, so both hot and cold items were enjoyed at their best. Breakfast also had an uplifting menu that started the day off right, and I was very satisfied. All of the staff were kind, cheerful, and left a great impression. The top-floor club level had a lovely atmosphere, and the complimentary sweets felt pleasantly refined. As for the bath area, it was thoroughly cleaned and I didn’t notice anything unpleasant such as stray hair. I didn’t have high expectations for the stargazing experience, but the telescope was better than I imagined and the host’s fun talk made it another highlight of this Hotel. Thoughtful touches like welcome gelato and hot coffee when seeing guests off also made me want to stay again. Although the Hotel has been around for years, it never felt dated—this is definitely a Hotel I want to visit again.

The staff were incredibly kind, and I was truly impressed—I’d give 10 stars if I could. Every staff member showed outstanding hospitality, and I even wondered how they could work so hard. The Room was spotless, the amenities were well stocked, and the view was amazing. Even though it was a short stay, it was one wonderful experience after another. Thank you very much.

I stayed for one night on March 29. I chose March because it was just before the spiny lobster fishing ban. This time I booked a luxurious spa Plan, so it was pricey, but it was absolutely worth the cost. The cuisine, spa, Onsen, Room Facilities, and service were all top-tier. As expected from HIRAMATSU, every dish was delicious. The dish made with the spiny lobster head felt a bit heavy for me, but everything else was perfect. The spiny lobster bisque at breakfast was outstanding. The bread and butter at both dinner and breakfast were also excellent. The spa was wonderful—comparable to the Mandarin Hotel’s spa. The Onsen and Room Facilities were also superb; there is nothing to complain about. Service from the manager, head chef, staff, and spa team was flawless. I’d like to return next year during abalone season. I recommend avoiding weekends at the end of March. That’s when F1 Japanese Grand Prix qualifying and the race are held at Suzuka, so Nagoya Station gets extremely crowded and nearby roads are heavily congested. On top of that, Ise Jingu Naiku Shrine was also packed due to a yokozuna dedication sumo event—but I consider it a good experience overall.

It had been a long time since I last had the chance to visit Europe, but at Shima Mediterranean Village I was able to experience those nostalgic streetscapes again after so many years. Combined with the beautiful coastline of the Shima Peninsula, it made for a wonderfully relaxing stay, and I truly felt glad that we chose this Hotel. Meals were served buffet-style, and both breakfast and dinner were of a very high standard—I was extremely satisfied. I could also sense the passion and attention to detail of everyone involved in preparing the dishes, which left a strong impression. As we stayed with our pet dog, I had some concerns about our dog’s toilet needs and asked for advice. Thank you very much for your courteous support, including sending photos to help us. I would also like to express my sincere gratitude for your consideration regarding changing breakfast (especially the female staff member at reception). Thanks to your help, we were able to stay with peace of mind together with our dog and enjoy a wonderful time. If we have another opportunity, we would love to visit again.

We stayed for two nights, one in a Wide View Twin room and one in a Japanese-style room. The Wide View Twin was very spacious, and the Japanese-style room was also comfortably sized. The staff were kind and even recommended some local shops. We traveled without a car, but we had no problems.

I travel to Ise-Shima at least once a year. Each time, I look for an Accommodation with a private open-air Onsen bath in the Room. This stay at Haifu was truly wonderful—one of the best I’ve experienced. This time, we stayed in a special suite. First of all, taking a boat to reach the Accommodation really heightened the sense of being on a trip, and I couldn’t stop feeling excited. The Accommodation was beautiful and kept very clean, and the staff were excellent. The Room had an open-air bath with an ocean view. There is also frosted sliding glass that can be used as a privacy screen from outside. Soaking in the Onsen while watching the full moon and stars and listening to the sound of the sea was incredible. We were also able to enjoy our meals slowly in a private dining room. Both the taste and presentation were top-class. Haifu is an Accommodation you’ll definitely want to return to. I hope to stay again soon, and I look forward to visiting again then.

The pool in the courtyard had two shallow depth options, which were perfect for our 5- and 3-year-old children. They also lent out water guns, and having a swimsuit spin dryer was very helpful. At night, there was a free lottery next to the front desk and a small festival-style game area (paid, around 200 yen), and we felt they had really put thought into it. We were allowed to use our own handheld fireworks (not sold on-site) in the courtyard, and when we brought some, they kindly lent us a bucket filled with water and a lighter. Meals were served in the Room for both breakfast and dinner, with great portions and flavor—our whole family was very satisfied. The baths operated on a rotating schedule: the women’s bath was on the 4th floor at night and on the 3rd floor in the morning. The 4th floor did not have an open-air bath but did have a sauna. It was at a comfortable temperature that children could also use. The 3rd floor did not have a sauna, but it had an open-air bath, which we also enjoyed. The view from our Room was beautiful as well, and we were glad to be able to see the morning sunrise.

After the festival at Shima Spain Village, I was able to refresh and recover from the fatigue with delicious food and a wonderful bath, so I could take on day two feeling energized! I’d love to come back again for a relaxing stay.

Traveling with my dog, we enjoyed a wonderful view with Kofu Beach right in front of us (a crystal-clear sea popular with surfers; the shoreline has become narrower than in the past, but the ocean feels even more powerful now). It rained the next day, but when I visited before, the sun rose over the sea—highly recommended for a picture-perfect view. Next time, I definitely want to see the sunrise. The Hotel staff were very kind and even took a commemorative photo for us in the lobby, so we have a great keepsake. Thank you very much.

The meals were simply outstanding! Dining in a spacious setting separated by rattan partitions that block views of neighboring tables felt almost like having a private room, and the ocean-view location and comfortable seating made it even better. It truly felt like a private space without worrying about those around us. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared, packed with plenty of seasonal local ingredients, and enjoyable both visually and on the palate. The timing of each freshly served warm dish was perfect, making for an exceptional dinner. Thank you for such a wonderful time! I’d love to stay again just for this cuisine. The only minor drawback was that the scent upon entering the lobby was a bit strong and not to my personal taste.

It was a wonderful experience. Thank you to all the Hotel staff. I was worried about the weather, but we were able to enjoy stargazing as planned. You also adjusted the dinner time, and I was able to relax and fully enjoy everything at a comfortable pace. Truly Aman quality. The Japanese-inspired cuisine was, of course, delicious. The excellent coffee is proof of your attention to detail. Above all, the hospitality of every staff member supported an unforgettable stay. I stopped by the thermal spring around checkout time, but the sidewalk had become so hot in the sun that it was impossible to walk on. It’s better to go after late afternoon. Next time, I’ll enjoy it with a Multiple Night Stay. Personally, I love Hawaii, and having a beer alone on the balcony at dawn is pure bliss—but coffee while looking out over Ago Bay from my Room at Amanemu surpassed even that. I’ll be back.

Both the bath and the Room were exceptionally clean and comfortable. Above all, I was truly impressed by how delicious the breakfast was! The luxurious buffet made me feel happy from the morning. The new pool was also very comfortable. It became a wonderful memory. Thank you very much.

Thank you for taking care of us for one night and two days. Before we arrived at the Hotel, my son developed symptoms that seemed like heatstroke. I asked—fully expecting it might not be possible—whether we could enter the Room 1.5 hours early so he could rest, and that we would pay an additional fee if needed. A female staff member kindly agreed and even lent us an ice pillow. After sleeping for about two hours, his symptoms improved completely, and we were able to continue our trip as planned. Breakfast was also very delicious. We also appreciated the free ice pops after the bath. It was a shame that the sauna closed one hour earlier than the bath. Thank you again for everything. We would like to stay here again.

Everything was outstanding—the surroundings, the Room, the meals, and the service. How do you create such a comfortable place? Relaxing while gazing at the water was wonderful, and the activities were fun as well. The staff also seemed to truly enjoy their work, and their passion and sincerity came through. I felt refreshed both physically and mentally. I’d love to visit again!

It is conveniently located near Ise City, and we stayed here for an overnight trip to Ise. The staff were very courteous, and we had a comfortable stay. We were satisfied with both the taste and portion size of the meals. As the building is older, some parts felt dated, but it has been nicely renovated and well cleaned, so it did not bother us. Perhaps because of the various events and the manga corner, there were many families with children. We would like to stay here again when we have another opportunity.

Everything was outstanding! The staff’s service was excellent, and there is nothing to complain about. Thank you very much for accommodating the surprise birthday cake as well! We will definitely stay again!

It was my first visit in a while, and I was completely satisfied. I felt truly refreshed and relaxed. Thank you sincerely for checking the dinner menu with us in advance and for your thoughtful consideration. I was also impressed by how delicious the breakfast was. The table decorations in the lobby were very beautiful. I would like to visit again soon. Thank you very much.

We were very satisfied last time, so we stayed again with three generations of our family. The meals were delicious, the renovated Room was clean with a great view, and we were able to relax in the Onsen and feel refreshed. All the staff were kind, and we also enjoyed bowling.

We used the round-trip shuttle bus from Kashikojima. Everyone at the front desk and in the dining area was kind, which made our stay very pleasant. There was a wide variety of dishes, and everything was delicious. In the playroom, we could enjoy board games and table tennis, so our grandchildren didn’t get bored while waiting for the return bus. Both the building and the Facility felt a bit old, but it gave us the impression that everything was thoroughly cleaned. The nearby sea at Jirokuro Coast is famous for its beautiful waters. Next time, I’d like to invite friends and enjoy a relaxing resort trip here. There were many clouds, so we couldn’t see the stars or moon clearly during nighttime stargazing. I’ll look forward to that next time as well.
