Irago Cape Local Fish Inn Takanoya

I chose this Accommodation because I was planning to stay near Cape Irago for a motorcycle event. As others have written, the food is unquestionably delicious and plentiful. I was especially satisfied with both the quality and quantity of the sashimi. They served many other dishes as well, but I still felt full from the Iekei ramen I had for lunch, so I couldn’t finish the simmered fish or the hot pot—and that was truly disappointing because everything tasted so good. Next time I stay, I think I should skip lunch. Since we were leaving early the next day, I couldn’t eat breakfast, which was a shame, but the rice balls they prepared for us were very tasty—so it made me think breakfast must have been great too... The bath was out of order, so we used a day-use bath at a Hotel about a 10-minute walk away. I was tired and would have preferred using the Accommodation’s bath, but the Hotel’s large public bath felt great as well, so overall it balanced out and I gave 4 stars. I heard our Room would be on the third floor and thought climbing stairs might be tough, but there was an elevator, which was reassuring. The Room being a Japanese-style room felt comfortable for me. The toilet and sink area seemed to have been renovated; they were bright and clean—and of course there was a washlet toilet seat. Since we’re coming from Kyushu, it’s not easy to visit without a motorcycle event, but if there’s another opportunity, I’d like to stay again.

This was my second visit. This time, I came to enjoy seasonal fugu dishes. From sashimi, fried fugu, hot pot, to fugu porridge... along with thickly sliced boat platters, boiled crab, and steamed egg custard—everything was fresh and served in generous portions. It was absolutely delicious and satisfying. The proprietress and staff were friendly and welcoming, making the experience even more relaxing. I enjoyed a luxurious escape in a beautifully renovated Room. Traveling with my dog limits our options for destinations, so I truly appreciate the relaxed pet policies here... Of course, we always follow the rules for guests with pets as we look forward to visiting again!
