가부토 산역 × 시설・설비의 평가가 높은 호텔·료칸

I’d been wanting to visit for a long time, and I treated myself to a Multiple Night Stay solo to truly relax. I’m so glad I chose this place! I’ve stayed at many Hotels and Ryokans in Japan and abroad, and this has become one of my top three favorites. Everything used throughout the Hotel is carefully selected and meticulously maintained. The staff were warm and kind in such a natural way—it was genuinely soothing. And the food—absolutely unforgettable! I had all three meals here, and if only I had another stomach, I would have loved to try even more from the menu. There were plenty of fresh local vegetables; everything was truly delicious, beautifully presented with great taste, and above all, you could feel the chef’s love in every dish. It makes perfect sense that so many guests return again and again. It was hot in midsummer, but I rented an e-bike, rode to the beach, and went for a swim. Just as rumored, the water was crystal clear—the beach was stunning—and it left me feeling completely refreshed. I will definitely come back in another season. Thank you so much for such a wonderful stay!

The meals featured a variety of Japanese dishes centered on local seafood. Every dish was carefully prepared, and we enjoyed them very much. We stayed in a guest Room with an open-air bath. It was thoroughly cleaned and there was no smell of tobacco. The bathroom has a hinoki (cypress) bath with a pleasant aroma. There is also a door leading directly outside to the open-air bath. Outside the Room is a private garden with views of both the sea and the mountains. Although it was summer, there were no mosquitoes or other insects even at night. Because there are only a small number of guest Rooms, we were able to relax in a very calm atmosphere throughout the property. Notes: 1) Even some first-floor guest Rooms have about five steps. There are also about ten steps to reach the large public bath. Please keep this in mind if you have difficulty walking. 2) Regarding guest Rooms with an open-air bath: This will be explained by staff on the day, but the water temperature is very hot. Please check and adjust the temperature before undressing. 3) The private garden for each guest Room has a fence on the sea side, but part of it is not continuous. Beyond that point there is an approximately 3-meter slope down toward the sea. Please take extra care not to take your eyes off small children.

We stayed here for a three-generation trip with a 4-year-old boy and a 2-year-old girl. We planned Amanohashidate on the first day and Kinosaki Marine World on the second. Originally, we had planned to visit Marine World on the first day and stay at an Accommodation near it without meals, but we changed our schedule so we could spend more time at Marine World and switched to a Plan with meals, so this is where we decided to stay. After check-in, we spent time in the pool until dinner. The pool was just the right size for our kids, and they had plenty of fun going back and forth between areas about 40 cm deep and about 100 cm deep. Dinner felt a little light in volume for an adult man. Breakfast was satisfying, with refills of rice available. The building isn’t new, but it was well cleaned and felt very tidy, which we were happy with. It was also nice that you can choose your yukata after check-in.

It was my first time staying here. Everyone was very kind, and it made my stay truly pleasant. Thank you very much.

From the Room’s large window, I could see small boats stored away. It was quiet and completely silent. The meals were enhanced by the aroma of olive oil, bringing out the natural flavors of the ingredients. I would like to return.

"People who want to eat with crab miso" are appearing one after another! We used the "Akira 'Aya'" Plan with 2.5 crabs for two adults. Sashimi, grilled, tempura, shabu-shabu, it was all crab! Crab! Crab! Haha Grilling over charcoal on a shichirin was just the best. Dip the meat in crab miso and eat it! It was the ultimate luxury~! The property had a warm atmosphere, and we were able to spend our time very leisurely. The food, including the crab, and even the breakfast, was all incredibly delicious! The property allows bringing in your own items, so we were grateful to be able to bring our favorite drinks and enjoy them with the meal. It became a very good memory, and we liked it so much that we want to go again!

It was a spacious and clean Room. The woman who brought our meal was friendly, which made us happy.

The Ryokan was just as we imagined—spotlessly clean—and we were very satisfied with both the room and the bath. What impressed us most was the hospitality of all the staff. Everyone was extremely courteous, and their thoughtful attention to detail could be felt throughout our stay. They provided a place to change into swimsuits before check-in, installed a shower next to the entrance, and even lent us a bucket for fireworks—every service was truly appreciated and perfect for those of us enjoying swimming in the sea. The meals were delicious and very filling. When we mentioned that we don’t like oysters, they kindly changed the dish to seared Spanish mackerel, showing great consideration for our preferences as well. Thanks to you, we made wonderful summer vacation memories. Our whole family was very happy with our stay. Thank you very much. We would love to stay here again when we visit Kumihama.

I booked the golf package this time. The Room only had a basic shower, but I was able to use the Onsen at the adjacent Ryokan, and the open-air bath with an ocean view was amazing. The Room was also clean, which was great. Breakfast was included, and I enjoyed playing golf at Kumihama Country Club, about a 5-minute drive away, before coming back. I’d like to visit again next year!

I stayed here during the Obon holidays and truly had a wonderfully relaxing time. Not only were the hearty, delicious dinner and breakfast excellent, but the rooftop views were stunning both morning and night, and the Onsen was incredibly soothing. All of the staff were very kind, and I could really feel the Ryokan’s thoughtful hospitality. I would love to stay again. Thank you for an amazing holiday!

About 30 years ago, I visited Kumihama for a day at the beach, and this time I came with my daughter, who is between jobs, after finishing caregiving for my father. The detached villa is about a 3-minute drive from the main building where breakfast and dinner are served, set along Kumihama Bay beyond a wooded path that keeps it completely private from outside view. The beautifully maintained lawn garden was stunning—like a Scandinavian holiday home. Inside, everything was spotless, and there was even a space to lie down and relax while looking out over the bay—an exceptional experience. Meals are served in private rooms in the main building, but they provide Shuttle Service by car, so there’s nothing to worry about. I was captivated by the crystal-clear flavors of the fish dishes—something you simply can’t find in the Tokyo area—and felt as if my whole body had been cleansed. Most guests seemed to be from the Kansai region, and there were no inbound travelers either. This is a truly superb hidden resort—so please don’t tell too many friends!

We stayed overnight after a day at the beach. The Accommodation owner was very gentle and welcoming, which made us feel at ease. When we asked about setting off the fireworks we brought, he suggested an open space in the parking lot next door and even lent us a bucket (we’re sorry for leaving the firework debris as well). The meals were carefully prepared and absolutely delicious. Thanks to such thoughtful hospitality, we were able to relax and enjoy a peaceful time.
