far from local station; shuttle times not often
Expect great Japanese hospitality. Room was spacious. Two bed option was great for traveling friends. Had seating area with table and amazing view from room. Did not have access path to beach. The shuttle was infrequent and had to be reserved the day prior before 5 pm. The hotel is about a 10 minute ride from the Minabe station and in 2019 cost 1780 JPY. The pool is open starting in July, so although it was a resort, there was no swimming option. Overall, reasonable option with great view if that’s what you’re looking for.

This is an excellent hotel with large but very average rooms. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful and the hotel has a wonderful, large onsen (Japanese bath) both indoors and outdoors, but the restaurant is very average

ある意味hidden Jem?
到着した日は、ウェブで見た写真と全然雰囲気違う〜!と気分が一気にダダ下がりましたが、設備は古いけれど温泉もお部屋も清潔で心地よく過ごせました。ビュッフェがちょっと高価すぎたのと、プールとビーチは思っていたのとまったく違ったのであまり楽しめなかったのが残念でした。本当の意味でのオールインクルーシブを目指して、プールやビーチを綺麗にリノベすれば、ポテンシャルは高いと思いました。

今のままでは浜の砂利が痛すぎて歩くのにも苦労しますが景観はとても良かったです
近くに小さい洞窟のようなものもあって冒険してみたくなりました

オールインクルーシブを利用せず、素泊まりで宿泊。でも、フリードリンクは利用可能とのことで夕方と夜に利用!アルコールもあって、種類も充実。ちょっとしたおつまみもあって堪能しました! お部屋は古めの和室。壁紙が一部はがれていたり、少しだけ水周りが臭ったりしましたが、眺めも良く快適に過ごせました。 大浴場はベビーベッドもあって子連れで入浴可能。広くて、露天風呂の温泉は私の身体に合ったのかすべすべになりました!
