Recently, I stayed at GIFTHOUSE Sunomiya with my beloved dog. The Room was a private villa, offering an exceptional sense of privacy. We could relax without worrying about others and truly felt rejuvenated. The highlight was the wood-burning barrel sauna in the villa's courtyard. My partner and I took turns enjoying the sauna, followed by resting in the outdoor space surrounded by nature. The feeling of unwinding amidst greenery was incredibly refreshing. At night, we relaxed under a starry sky—a luxury you can't experience in everyday life. There was also a dog run where our dog could run freely and seemed to have so much fun. It was great to let our pet play in a completely private space. The villa itself was spacious with a fully equipped kitchen and appliances, making it easy to cook meals. We enjoyed BBQs and leisurely breakfasts on the terrace while taking in the view of greenery through the large living room windows—such a lovely touch! Access from the city center wasn't too far either; it took about 90 minutes by car, which added to its appeal. The cost per person was around 30,000 yen, but considering this level of luxury, it felt worth every penny. I’d love to visit again for special occasions or relaxing weekend trips with my pet! Thank you!!

Thank you very much for your hospitality. We were able to spend a relaxing time with our family over the New Year holidays in an amazing location! The beautiful weather made the sunset views even more spectacular. The amenities were excellent, and we enjoyed the sauna, pool as a cold plunge, and even had a family karaoke competition. We would love to stay here again in the future!

I used this place for my fishing expedition in Shimane. The location is excellent, situated between Hamada and Oda, making it a very nice spot. I will definitely come again next time.

I visited in early spring and early summer before, but this was my first time staying during midsummer. Despite expecting large crowds, the Hotel staff's prompt responses and thoughtful care allowed me to enjoy a relaxing stay without any issues. The beach was relatively crowded, but I could leisurely enjoy snorkeling and swimming in the morning or evening. The restaurant service and meal quality were consistently excellent, offering a wide variety of Japanese-Western fusion dishes that changed daily. The marine services were also well-equipped, allowing me to enjoy various sports within the Hotel premises. I would definitely like to visit again!

This is our third year in a row staying here! Camping in a camper van at this price is unbeatable value. I definitely recommend booking with both breakfast and dinner included! Unlimited fishing and sea activities, a BBQ with plenty of meat and vegetables, a complimentary Onsen voucher, campfires, and you can even see shooting stars at night! Breakfast changes every year—things like baked apples and hot sandwiches—so we never get bored and keep coming back. We went with three families, and the staff placed our camper vans close to each other, so we could all stay together and have a great time. Thank you very much! For the sea activities, we kept asking for kayaks and SUP one after another, but they kindly brought out all kinds of equipment without any hesitation—we really appreciated it. The life jacket rental was also very helpful. We enjoyed so many things this year, but it’s also absolutely worth staying here even if you do nothing but relax and watch the ocean. Watching the sunrise is great too! There are toilets and shower rooms, and hand soap is provided as well. I’m sure managing everything isn’t easy, but our kids always say “Summer means Nagasakibana!” so we look forward to coming again next year!

The sunset and sunrise were absolutely wonderful. The Onsen was also very nice. Even after we got close to the Accommodation, we couldn’t find it and had to look around. Since the Accommodation wasn’t listed on our car’s navigation system, we asked a local and were able to find it.

We stayed for a Multiple Night Stay. Above all, the food—including fish—was delicious. Over two days, not a single dish was repeated. Not only the sashimi, but also the steamed dishes and vegetable dishes were all excellent. When I told the owner that the rice was delicious too, he said it was grown by his friend. With an Onsen and a clean Room, there’s nothing to complain about. Using a smartphone to enter details at check-in was a first for me, but it went smoothly. Lake Hyuga is right in front of you, and the view was outstanding.

A condominium with a kitchen, a 10-minute walk from the station and 3 minutes to the beach. It was very convenient since we didn’t have a car. Self check-in is unmanned, but when there was an issue with the screen, staff responded immediately by phone, which made us feel at ease. It was wonderful to cook and dine while enjoying the ocean view from the window. The kitchen is fully equipped with pots and other essentials. The Room is spacious and clean, with a living area and dining area, so you can relax comfortably.

About a 15-minute taxi ride from the nearest Miyaji Station, it’s accessible even without a car. The atmosphere is simply outstanding. Dining with the majestic Aso mountains and endless grasslands as your backdrop is truly irreplaceable. The Facility feels like a hotel restaurant in the American West. As it’s located on a ranch, there are plenty of horses on the premises, and of course you can also enjoy horseback riding experiences. With good weather, you should be able to catch the sunset sinking into the vast Aso landscape, a sky full of stars, and refreshing sunrise views with seas of clouds. There is also a large public bath. It’s a bit small, but it includes a dry sauna and cold plunge pool—perfect for unwinding while looking out over the Aso grasslands. It’s slightly disappointing that there’s no outdoor air-bath space (for safety reasons, the windows are kept fully closed), but you can still spot horses in the distance. Depending on the Plan, private time slots may be available as well, making it convenient for families.

I’m satisfied and would be happy to stay again if I have the opportunity.

Three family members in our 70s stayed in a Japanese-Western style Room. It’s a Showa-era building, but the Room was clean, spacious, and comfortable. We could also see a beautiful sunrise from the Room. The location was great, and we took an early-morning walk to Amanohashidate. For dinner, we chose the chef’s omakase Amanohashidate kaiseki course served in our Room, but it was far too much for us in our 70s and we felt sorry for leaving some of it. In hindsight, we should have asked about the menu before choosing the course. The bath had one tub and I recall there were seven or eight faucets and showers. It’s on the small side. It seemed that the men’s bath on the day we stayed was even smaller. The front desk staff answered our questions in a friendly manner. Overall, I think it offers very good value for money.

Thank you for calling us despite the bad weather. Dinner was wonderful—the special order, a platter of local fish sashimi, was exceptionally fresh and delicious. The pork dish made with goya (bitter melon) was so skillfully prepared by the owner-chef that even I, who don’t like bitter foods, ate it all. Every dish was delicious; I was fully satisfied and completely full. The starry sky at midnight was truly moving. I would love to visit again next time without causing any trouble. Thank you very much for your warm hospitality.

Master, thank you for such a fun and wonderful time. It was my first stay, but you listened to so many of our stories over drinks, and it was truly relaxing. You even celebrated my birthday and Mother’s Day with me—it was the most fulfilling time I’ve had in decades. If I have the chance, I would love to stay again at this Hotel.

Because it was the Obon holiday and we wanted to avoid traffic, we chose this Hotel simply because it’s accessible from Toyohashi Station. The pool looked great in the photos, and it met our expectations. But the Hotel exceeded our expectations (in a good way). Even though we booked the lowest-grade Room, it had a large balcony! The bathroom has a washing area, and you can take off your shoes before stepping into the Room. Is it really okay to receive service like this? We thought the buffet at a pool Hotel would be fine as long as the kids were happy, but there wasn’t anything that tasted bad! Most dishes were above a certain standard, and besides all-you-can-eat crab, there were many seafood-based options. The shuttle bus runs mainly around check-in and check-out times, but there’s also a public bus stop just a short walk away, so getting around is easy. The bath facilities had just been renovated and were spotless. It fills up quickly during summer vacation, so we’d like to make a Reservation early next year.

Once or twice a year, I take a solo trip from Kyoto. Since I’m usually stuck at my desk doing computer work, doing a workation in an Onsen has become my go-to, and this Ryokan is one of my regular choices. I can spend some time away from my laptop, relax in the Onsen, enjoy delicious meals, and chat with the proprietress and owner. After time like that, I always head home feeling refreshed. I stayed with the seasonal kaiseki plan, and everything from sashimi to hot pot and kamameshi was plentiful—I was completely full and very satisfied. Breakfast is included in the morning; I’m hooked on pouring a soft-boiled egg that’s been soaked in dashi over rice. Then I finish with Onsen miso soup. I’d like to visit again on my next day off.

I’ve lost count of how many times I’ve stayed here—at least four. As the title says, it’s five seconds to the beach. The ocean view from the living room is stunning. The sea was a bit rough this time, but the contrast between the white crests and the blue-green water made it even more striking. The Southeast Asian–style interior you can see in the photos is wonderful and exceptionally clean—nothing to complain about. It’s probably among the very best vacation rentals. Personally, I was a little disappointed that the BBQ Facility I’d enjoyed up until last year is no longer available.

The Facility and breakfast were very satisfying, just like others have mentioned. However, there was one issue. Dinner was supposed to be at the neighboring restaurant—likely under the same management as the Hotel, as their menu was also placed in the Room—but I chose Tuesday for my stay because Wednesday is their regular holiday. Unfortunately, it turned out that Tuesday was also a holiday. Being in a rural area with no nearby restaurants, I had to drive to Yonago at night but managed to resolve the situation. Later on Instagram, I found out that some weeks have Tuesdays as holidays too, but this information is announced only a month in advance and doesn't align with Reservation timing. For those planning to rely on the neighboring restaurant when making a Reservation, please make sure to confirm beforehand!

The Facility is quite old, but the Room we stayed in had been refurbished, there were no noticeable odors at all, and we had a comfortable stay. The Room only has shampoo, conditioner, body soap, and a toothbrush set, but we didn’t need anything else so it wasn’t an issue. Dinner was a set meal featuring Agu pork grilled on a ceramic plate; it was delicious, and it was convenient not having to go out. We would stay here again when visiting northern Okinawa.

This was our second stay. Our children especially love this Hotel, so we came back again. Perhaps because many guests come for golf, the pool, Onsen, kids’ room, and karaoke were all pleasantly uncrowded and comfortable. We had the breakfast buffet at a late hour this time, but the staff continually refilled items and checked in with guests, which made it a very pleasant experience. The front desk and Onsen staff were also very kind. We would love to visit again.

I stayed here during the Obon holiday. I came thinking, “The view looks nice, and as long as I can sleep well, that’s enough,” but in the best way possible, my expectations were completely exceeded. This time I stayed in a Japanese-style room before the renovation, and it felt very clean. The futon was fluffy, and above all, the view from the window was amazing. The Onsen wasn’t overly large and had a calm, relaxing atmosphere, so I was able to unwind at a leisurely pace. Most memorable of all was the warm hospitality from the wonderful owner couple and all of the staff. Of course the Accommodation itself is very comfortable, but I think what makes you want to come back is this kind of genuine warmth from people. On top of that, at check-out there was an exclusive service for guests: a photo shoot by the owner, who is also a professional photographer! The beautiful photo data were later sent by email as well—it became an unexpected and very happy memory. I also heard they are continuing to renovate parts of the building little by little even now, so it’s exciting to see how it changes with each visit. I’m really looking forward to seeing what kind of Accommodation it will become in the future. Even though I went planning “just to stay overnight,” I came home with wonderful memories—including the scenery, the Onsen, and meeting such kind people. I would definitely love to visit again. *This isn’t directly related to Hotel services, but please note that the entrance from the street can be a bit hard to find, and some parts of the road leading up to this Accommodation are narrow. If you’re coming by car, it may help to drive carefully on your way here.*
