Kiraku: The Inn of Toki Legend and Open-Air Bath

We were drawn to the private open-air bath and in-room dining, and decided to visit!The hospitality was exceptional even before check-in. They were very considerate of my mobility issues, allowing me to relax and enjoy my stay comfortably.The open-air bath is located in a separate building from the accommodation. The washing area has a tatami-like surface, which is gentle on the feet, and you can also enjoy the beautiful scenery! On the second floor of the open-air bath building, there is a spacious lounge area with stunning views as well.For meals, we were served such a variety that it filled up the entire table! I was so focused on cracking crab that some grilled dishes and hot pot cooled down before I could eat them—what a shame! Everything was delicious and enjoyable.It was such an amazing experience that I want more people to know about this place!

The Onsen accommodation "Kiraku" we stayed at was a Ryokan full of nostalgic Showa-era charm in a good way. It lacked the flashy modernity of recent times, but its nostalgic atmosphere provided a sense of comfort. We would love to plan another trip to Sado again.
