I visited again after three years to enjoy the full tiger puffer course. It is delicious every time, and I never get tired of it. The hassun, soup dish, and takikomi rice were also excellent, and I ended up drinking quite a lot again. Of course, the ara course and other courses are also very tasty, but I still think Yoyokaku’s tiger puffer course is the best. The staff and everyone at the Accommodation were very pleasant, and the building and garden felt spacious and relaxing, so I was able to unwind once again. Thank you for upgrading us to a wonderful Room.

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.

This was my first stay. Located right by the sea, the live squid sashimi enjoyed while watching the sunset was outstanding. The building is a bit old, but the detached annex is two stories and offers a nice sense of privacy. The location is great, and I was able to relax at a leisurely pace. Even before check-in, they kindly let a family member who wasn’t feeling well use a resting area, for which I’m very grateful. I’d love to stay again and have already shared it with friends.

I came all the way from Hokkaido because I wanted to try Yobuko’s live squid. It turned out to be an excellent Hotel. Not only was the live squid cuisine outstanding, but the Room with its beautiful, expansive window overlooking the sea was also amazing. Next time, I’d love to visit again on a clear day. Thank you for your wonderful hospitality.

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).

After arriving at the Accommodation, we borrowed an electric scooter and took a stroll along the seaside. Back in the Room, we worked up a sweat in the wood-burning stove sauna and felt refreshed, then enjoyed ice cream in the lounge while playing Pac-Man (lol). For dinner, we savored dishes featuring superb live squid and Saga beef with Tiger Beer, then went to sleep in a spacious bed while gazing out at the sea. Breakfast was also excellent—the rice was sweet and delicious, paired with local specialties like mirin-dried fish and squid shumai that you can only find here. After that, we took a cruise ship around Kabeshima Island. In the calm summer Genkai Sea, on the far side of Kabeshima we saw columnar joints like natural stone walls, listened to stories about islands near and far, and felt the wind as the boat sped along. We truly enjoyed an exceptionally special time. There are still so many great points I can’t even write them all—this all-inclusive Plan is simply amazing. On our way back they drove us to Karatsu-Nishi Station, making it easy to get to Hakata as well; it’s surprisingly accessible even without a car. This is an Accommodation I’ll keep remembering fondly long after returning home.

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.

The dashi, seasonings, ingredients, tableware, and hospitality came together in perfect harmony to create dishes that truly warmed the body and soul. We were able to fully enjoy the Karatsu-yaki ceramics. The seasonal flowers displayed throughout the Accommodation were graceful, and the garden pines stood proudly—immaculately maintained. This is a culinary Accommodation where you’ll want to savor every last drop.

Both dinner and breakfast were incredibly delicious, and our child was very satisfied! Since you stay at a guesthouse expecting great food, it absolutely met our expectations! We want to eat squid again!

We chose this Ryokan because our 7-year-old wanted to try fishing, and we also wanted to eat live squid. The Facility itself felt like a classic Showa-era Ryokan—an older building with what seemed like quite a lot of Rooms—but it appears they currently limit reservations to only 2–3 parties. Since I work in real estate, I found myself imagining how challenging it must have been in the past to serve meals and accommodate large numbers of guests here. As for the fishing, the proprietress kindly taught us step by step, which was a huge help. However, perhaps due to the heavy rain, we only caught one small fish. Still, our child was thrilled, and it became a wonderful experience. For dinner, we thoroughly enjoyed the squid we had been looking forward to, and they also served our catch as fried fish. We were very satisfied. Saga Prefecture is far from where we live, so I’m not sure when we’ll be able to visit again—but if we get the chance, I’d love to return. The area around the Facility felt a bit quiet due to an aging population, but I hope this traditional Japanese Ryokan continues for many years.

When we ordered extra squid, the Yobuko squid was truly delicious.

Takashima is known for its thriving tuna and tiger puffer fish farming, as well as its stunning natural scenery. Despite being just as accessible from Fukuoka as the popular tourist destination of Yobuko, it remains relatively undiscovered by tourists and retains its charm. While there are fewer restaurants specializing in live squid, you can enjoy fresh horse mackerel, tuna, tiger puffer fish, and other seafood dishes at very reasonable prices. Notably, tiger puffer fish here is available at half the price compared to areas like Kitakyushu, Shimonoseki, or Usuki. This establishment has a long history and some parts show their age; however, it's worth visiting before it becomes overly commercialized or expensive—definitely worth looking into!

Stayed at Karatsu Kimura Chaya to try squid The squid was very fresh and delicious. The simmered fish head, abalone, and sea bream chazuke for breakfast were all excellent. The view from the window was wonderful, and seeing Karatsu Castle while having breakfast—along with the cherry blossoms in full bloom—made it an unforgettable trip to Karatsu.
