Bay Resort Hotel Shodoshima

All the staff were kind and pleasant.The food wasn’t just a little of everything; it felt carefully selected, and the simmered babylonia whelk, tempura with olive oil, and individual hot pot were delicious. The all-you-can-drink alcohol was also great, and it was my first time seeing the “tornado” beer pour.Both the Room and the bath were very comfortable, and since yukata can come loose, I really appreciated having pajamas as well.

I chose this Hotel for the buffet, but everything else was excellent as well. The Hotel staff were very kind, helping with bus cancellations and providing advice on sightseeing schedules. There was always someone at the front desk, making it easy to ask questions. I also appreciated the free coffee and tea service in the sofa area near the front desk, where I could relax while enjoying a beautiful view. The large public bath was spacious enough, and the open-air bath was delightful. The view from my Room was stunning with an amazing ocean view. As for the dinner buffet, it included a drink bar with alcohol options, which is great for those who enjoy drinks; however, the dining space felt crowded like a banquet hall with too many people and tables close together—it wasn’t a relaxing atmosphere for me. Unfortunately, I couldn’t fully enjoy eating or drinking at the buffet due to this; next time I’ll consider adjusting my timing better.The location is convenient as it's close to tourist spots like Marukin Soy Sauce Museum within walking distance—such charming surroundings! Visiting places like Kankakei Gorge allowed me to explore Shodoshima’s attractions thoroughly. Despite some issues during meals, it turned out to be an enjoyable trip overall. Thank you!
