Minami Awaji Onsenkyo Yabuman Ryokan

This was our first stay, and the hostess was very warm and welcoming. We felt truly at home, and it was a wonderful Accommodation.The conger eel course was a bit too much for us in our 70s, so we couldn’t finish the final clay pot rice. They kindly made it into rice balls for us, and we enjoyed it very much.Next time, we would love to visit again for the 3-year-aged pufferfish.

We visited Awaji Island as a family. The staff welcomed us warmly, and our expectations quickly rose that this might be a wonderful Ryokan. The Onsen water was silky and unique! Since it’s by the sea, we expected something lighter, so it was a pleasant surprise. Each dish was truly delicious. We’re a couple who can eat quite a lot, but we were completely full! The proprietress came to greet us, and we were impressed by her thoughtful hospitality. They also had great options for children’s yukata and meals.After we got home, we recommended it to my husband’s parents, and they immediately made a Reservation for October!Even as rising costs and staff shortages have led many places to simplify things, you can really feel that they are preserving amenities, service, and comfortable conversation—this was the first time in a while that we felt we stayed at a truly great Accommodation.
