“Loved our stay here”
Dinner was beautiful and Onsen facilities were amazing. Body care like akasuri and massage was available and we enjoyed it. Staff were nice and friendly. It’s easier if you drive a car. It’s close to the Chiringashima sandbar crossing, even by foot, if that interests you.

“Good option for Ibusuki”
We caught a ferry across from Kanoya to Ibusuki on a road trip from Miyazaki down and around to Kagoshima.. Like most people, to try the sand onsens. This place was a short drive away from the sand onsen and could easily be done by bus, taxi or bicycle. Hotels in Ibusuki are a little more expensive than other places in Japan. Out of the options available I thought this was the best value. Although not a short walk from the sand onsen like some other places. This hotel has a nice onsen next door included in the price, which isn't in the same building. But there is a covered short walk to next door to the onsen place that has lots of different separate onsens to try. There are also dinner options right next door that are a fair price and we had breakfast included. So everthing was covered. The room was a good size, we didn't use the bathroom because we had an onsen in the afternoon, evening and next morning. I'd stay here again if I visited Ibusuki again.
