Aoki Shima no Yado Kumano Bettei Nakanoshima

Everything was wonderful! It was so amazing that I wished we had stayed for two nights. Since the entire island is an Accommodation, we could fully enjoy the beauty of the sea from the Room and the bath, and it was great to see the displayed raw Nachiguro stones and to have meals made with local ingredients. The Wakayama sake was also delicious. Breakfast was outstanding as well. It was a delicious Japanese-style meal, and I especially loved that the buffet included locally made rice-flour bread and sweet red bean paste, so I could make anko toast. I took a walk outside in the morning, and I was moved by the incredible views. The only thing was that sleeping with just futons made the tatami feel a bit hard on my back, so it would have been perfect if there had been something like a mattress topper.

We stayed here for my husband’s birthday, and both the meals and the Onsen were excellent. The flower arrangement in our Room added a special touch to our celebration day. Thank you very much for your thoughtful hospitality. The private bath was surprisingly spacious—almost too large for just the two of us—with both an indoor and an outdoor bath, and the free-flowing hot spring water was wonderful. The lounge was also comfortable and well kept, with staff present to maintain it properly. Both breakfast and dinner were carefully prepared and truly delicious.
