The air-conditioned rooms feature a safety deposit box, a fridge and an electric kettle with green tea bags. The en suite bathroom comes with a hairdryer. Guests can choose between Western-style and Japanese-style rooms.

The location was easy to walk to or catch a bus or ride a taxi. The Onsen and spa facilities were amazing. The restaurant served great food. The small shop had delicious ice creams and omiyagi. Our package included a Japanese breakfast which was delicious. We stayed in the newer part of the hotel. It was clean and comfortable. The staff were friendly and super helpful… even insisting on carrying our hiking packs for us! Would book again without hesitation.

    Not one thing I can complain about. The house is beautiful and situated closely to the train station. There is also an Onsen nearby which was really convenient. The manager Yuko was very friendly and has a lot of knowledge about the area. There are drinks and snacks in the kitchen which can be purchased for little money and save you the trip to the Konbini.

    The onsen hotel is spacious and all the staff are so readily to assist and answer any queries that I had. Room is spacious and clean. the outdoor onsen is a gem, so relaxing and well landscaped. Our omakase meals tasted great and different dishes for the 2 nights that we stayed. One of the staff even recognized us when we were walking to the train station after our sandbath at Saraku and picked us up to drive us back to the hotel. We really appreciate that and save us the 30mins journey back hotel on my own.

    Sweet and clean little family Ryokan close to the harbour of Ibusuki, about half an hour walk from the hot sand spa. If you stay, you must have the excellent traditional Japanese food for dinner, that is prepared by the sweet and friendly hostess with a lot of love.

    Wonderfully warm and welcoming was Mr Hideaki and the ryokan staff. From train station drop and pick up to a tailored to our interests day tour of Ibusuki (so very well worth it) to restaurant recommendations to good stories sum up our stay! The place was clean, calm, located in walking distance to the famous the sand baths as well as multiple restaurants. The Japanese traditional breakfast was very good. The common bath area was very clean and well maintain! Overall splendid time, we could not have asked for more! Thank you Mr Hideaki!!

    Our stay here definitely exceeded expectations, with this ryokan rating as our best stay in Kyushu over the 10 days we visited. Staff were very helpful on check in and departure. Parking worked nicely. Dinner was outstanding and the staff who helped explain the kaiseki meal to us were fantastic. Our room had views looking out to sea, which was special. The onsen was nice too. All in all a great stay!
