Waowww.....what a view! - all rooms have sea views on the rolling waves and surfers having fun. Really beautiful from sunrise to sunset. And the Onsen is an added bonus, fantastic. I only stayed a couple of nights but super nice. Rooms are spacious, comfy, buffet is plentiful, and the sushi bar is exquisite! Highly recommended stop, especially with family.

The room was nice and spacious. As others have noted the decor is a little dated, however, the room is breathtaking. Staff was very warm and helpful. They were so sweet- as we were leaving several staff members came out to bow and wave to us (it made us feel valued as customers). The sushi bar was a special treat. The onsen was very relaxing, with a lovely view Thank you for a pleasant stay.

Liked: Staff & service, amenities
It was convenient for us to go to the beach and the pool from our room. Staff members were all professional. The room, especially the bathroom, was small and dated. However, the overview was fantastic. As an important note, if you don’t have cars, don’t expect to find taxi easily (and it’s pricey. About 3,000 yen one way). It’s better to make a dinner plan at the hotel (or nearby restaurants). Overall, we were happy about our stay.

As an American, the beds were extremely uncomfortable and the rooms were very hot. We ended up leaving early because of how uncomfortable the beds and heat were. The hotel and staff were very nice, friendly, and helpful, and amazing amenities as a family traveling with a 6 month old and 2 year old

The staff at the reception desk were amazing, friendly, and helpful. They helped with luggage and getting a cab when needed. I would like to see the gift shop, restaurant and coffee shop open for longer hours. Coffee and drinks not available till 10 am. The pool would have been a nice touch too but the hours open were only on the weekend. Rooms were okay, a bit outdated and smelled not so fresh.
