It was right in front of the Sotoura coast, and the scenery was amazing! I was able to relax in the open-air hot spring bath in my room while listening to the sound of the waves. Since it wasn't the swimming season yet, there were very few people on the beach, and the environment was nice and quiet. The meals are French in the evening and American in the morning, both served with freshly baked bread, which was really fluffy and delicious! Of course, the food at night was all really delicious, especially the dishes made with local ingredients. The sauna was also very pleasant, so when I got out of the sauna, I swam in the pool, and then went back to the sauna again. I would definitely like to visit again next time. but! One thing to note. The person at the inn told me that those who have a membership here are allowed to bring their children with them during spring, summer, and winter vacations, and since the day I stayed was Golden Week, it wasn't strange for them to bring their children (I was surprised). I was just lucky that I wasn't there... It seems that on normal Saturdays and Sundays, it is only for adults. So, if you are interested in making a reservation because of the fact that it is for adults only, it would be a good idea to check with the inn before making your reservation.
All rooms are suites in a great location! There are eight rooms in total, all of which have open-air baths with natural hot spring water. The bath while looking out at the beautiful clear blue sea was so great that I took it many times! There is a pool and sauna outside. You can also go to the beach by going down the stairs. The food is also very delicious and satisfying. We had a wonderful and special time!
A members-only resort located on the ocean front with all suites and open-air hot spring baths. It was a moving night where I enjoyed the open-air bath in my guest room and delicious food while being surrounded by the changing scenery of the cobalt blue ocean front and the sound of the waves, and also saw the Moon Road, which I had always wanted to see with my own eyes once in my life.It was a moving night, and I was able to enjoy a wonderful adult time.
