Ryokan Hamayuu Matsuiseki-an

We used this as a trip gift from the children to celebrate our parents’ 80th and 77th birthdays.In addition to the delicious meals and the private open-air jacuzzi with free-flowing hot spring water, we truly appreciated your thoughtful hospitality, and our parents were absolutely delighted. They said breakfast was such a feast they couldn’t finish it all, making it a wonderful memory. Thank you very much for taking such good care of us.

A last-minute trip to Fukui. We stayed at Mayu-san’s Accommodation for one night, and they took great care of us. We originally made a Reservation simply because we wanted to visit a gravel beach and this was the only available place nearby, but it exceeded our expectations in the best way!!Since we had been playing at the beach, we headed straight to the bath right after check-in.There are four washing stations, and from the tub you can look out over the Sea of Japan.In the women’s bath, there were about six types of shampoo and conditioner to choose from—such a thoughtful touch!Dinner was what we had been looking forward to: an incredible boat platter packed with fresh sashimi. We actually said out loud, “Is this really for two people?!”The selection may vary by day, but everything was extremely fresh and delicious. Even though we visited in August, we also got to enjoy crab.When I asked later, I was told that Echizen crab in winter is even better—now I’m already excited.And just when we thought we couldn’t eat another bite, they served one whole fried flounder per person—what a surprise!!Rice refills were free as well.It was also great that we could enjoy everything in our Room.After dinner they laid out our futons for us, and our family of three—completely full—immediately sprawled out flat (laugh).There was only one small thing I noticed:At lights-out, it would have been nice to have a nightlight or bedside lamp!If there actually was one and I missed it, sorry about that!We also had breakfast in our Room the next morning.The grilled mackerel was honestly some of the best I’ve ever had!!Ah… I want to eat it again.The proprietress and staff were all truly cheerful and kind—we really felt their warmth.They took care of everything so efficiently that we had no inconveniences during our stay.Everything was kept very clean throughout as well, making it a comfortable stay.Since it took us over four hours each way from Nara, one night felt too short—I wanted more time to enjoy Fukui’s seafood.We’ll definitely be back!!Thank you so much for your hospitality.
