"Warm welcoming convenient to the famous sand baths and Chiringashima."

10.0

This was my second stay at this marvelous ryokan. The innkeeper is an engaging and friendly warm soul. She makes guests feel welcome and shares her love for Ibusuki through touring recommendations and cultural information. The food is outstanding. The inn is quiet and comfortable for a great night's rest. Can't wait to return!

There was nothing we did not like.

Great food, very welcoming staff, we got a room upgrade due to being one of the few guests on the off season, and we enjoyed the bicycle rental.

指宿駅から徒歩だと20分ほどかかりますが、周囲はたいへん静かでゆっくりと過ごせます。今となっては昭和レトロな部屋も風情があります。スタッフさんも大変気さくで親切でした。徒歩圏内に夕食がとれる場所は見つけることができませんでしたので、必要なら夕食込みで予約がベターと思います。午前中に2本ほど、指宿駅経由で砂むし会館へ行けるバスの停留所が、徒歩2,3分の所にありました。
