  • I booked a Room with a private bath for a trip with my mother. Although I wasn’t familiar with the area, the location is excellent, and you can enjoy a relaxing bath while looking out over Shirarahama Beach. Dinner and breakfast are also served in the in-Room dining area. The Room is spacious and comfortable, as it was created by combining two Rooms during renovation. There is also a massage chair by the window, perfect for relaxing while enjoying the view of Shirarahama Beach. The meals were delicious as well. I would love to stay again.

  • My husband and I stayed here together. The Onsen was wonderful and left our skin feeling silky smooth all over.We ate at a nearby sushi restaurant, and we were happy to hear that Yanagiya’s Onsen is the best. We would love to stay again.Thank you very much.
