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

建物は綺麗でしたが料理が残念過ぎました。 別料金約9000円も払ったのにバイキングの内容がひどかったです。その値段ならライブキッチンがあってもおかしくないのに、味も普通以下の内容でした。お肉料理がトンカツとしゃぶしゃぶ肉だけでした。飲み放題もついてますが、飲めないのでソフトドリンクを充実して欲しかったです。お風呂は綺麗でしたが、掃除のオバサンの態度が悪く、大きいムカデがいましたが それを退治するように頼んだらムカつかれて、最終的にとってくれましたが私がありがとうございます！と言っても無視でした。 また部屋のトイレの水が全然流れなくて苦労しました。 寝ていたらスタンド下にゴキブリがいました。 虫が大嫌いなのでぐっすり眠れませんでした。 期待が大きかったのでかなり残念でした。
