It's a property rich in history, culture, art, furnishings, aesthetics. Staff are helpful, informative, attentive. They are welcoming, friendly. The rooms are clean, diverse in style, comfortable, with great views of sky, water, beach, pine trees, islands, and mountains. Sandy beach and surf are just in front of the ryokan. The food is extraordinary, plentiful, delicious servings of traditional Japanese-style breakfast and dinner. The seafood is incredible. You must reserve for dinner by noon of the same day. Lunch is not currently being served. There are a few fine options nearby. The various choices for bathing, indoor and outdoor, are exceptional, a real highlight of our stay. The ryokan is inviting. We will happily stay at this ryokan again.
