This resort offers stunning sea views from every room, which is a definite highlight. The onsen facilities are great, providing a peaceful and scenic place to relax. However, I found the dining options to be decent but lacking variety, especially considering the high prices for meals. Additionally, the service, while helpful, had some communication issues due to language barriers. Overall, it’s a solid choice for a relaxing getaway, but there are areas for improvement.

I had a fantastic experience at this resort, with stunning sea views and a peaceful onsen that made for a perfect getaway. The rooms provided a unique blend of traditional Japanese style and modern comfort, though the location is quite remote, requiring a bit of travel to reach. The dining experience was enjoyable, particularly the memorable chestnut cake we ordered. Overall, it's great value for money, especially if you're looking to relax by the water.

I had a very relaxing stay at this resort, thanks to beautiful views and a serene atmosphere. The onsen was quite enjoyable, though it could use better management, especially regarding towel availability. While the food was good, the remote location means you'll want to opt for full board as other dining options are distant. Overall, it’s a great place to unwind, but the location can be a downside for those wanting to explore.
