I went to Hama no Yu, a restaurant located right next to the sea in Izu Inatori. I heard that HIKAKIN has been there too... It takes about 3 hours from Tokyo if the roads are not congested. You can enjoy the hot springs while looking at the sea from the rooms with open-air baths. I was able to use the baths even in the rain without any problems. The large public bath also had a large open-air bath with a beautiful view. For dinner, we had a big boat-shaped dish and the specialty, boiled golden-eyed snapper. It was so much food that you couldn't believe your eyes lol We had a boat-shaped dish for breakfast too lol I was very satisfied because I was able to enjoy a lot of very fresh seafood. It was a little expensive because it was Obon, but it was an inn that I would like to come back to. 📍Location: Izu Inatori, Shizuoka Prefecture 💰Price per person: ¥50,000 💞Reasons why we recommend it: The food is delicious, and the staff is very kind and polite #Hot spring #Izu Inatori #Hot spring trip #Hot spring inn #Hot spring inn #Domestic trip #Couple trip #100 travel styles

Gyokusuikan, the hot springs guardian of Izu Atagawa Onsen.

The famous tropical open-air bath at Gyokusuikan Main Building in Atagawa Onsen, Izu. It stands quietly, protected by rubber trees over 100 years old. It looks spectacular in photos, but it's even more impressive when you go there in person. The roots hang down like curtains, giving it a jungle feel. The rubber trees have broken through the roof and are still growing. It's an onsen with an atmosphere that you wouldn't expect to find in Japan. #onsen #atagawaonsen #photogenicspot #trip2022

Kawazu cherry blossoms are the earliest blooming cherry blossoms in Eastern Japan. To check the blooming status in Kawazu Town, you can visit the official website, which is updated every morning. The Kawazu Cherry Blossom Festival is held from early to late February each year. During this period, there are many food stalls and unique souvenirs available for tourists to purchase near Kawazu Station and along the Kawazu River, creating a lively atmosphere. Visitors can enjoy the beautiful cherry blossoms along the river while tasting delicious local snacks, offering a feast for both the eyes and the taste buds. A special recommendation is the sakura-flavored taiyaki, available only during the festival. Freshly made, it is warm and chewy, and its pink color perfectly complements the cherry blossom scenery. Holding it under the cherry trees makes for a perfect photo opportunity. For those interested in night cherry blossoms, there is an evening illumination ceremony from 6 PM to 9 PM. Transportation: If traveling from Tokyo, you can take the Odoriko Limited Express train directly to JR Kawazu Station. This is the most convenient and fastest method, though it is also more expensive. For a cheaper option, you can take the Tokaido Shinkansen to Atami Station, then transfer to the JR Ito Line to Kawazu Station. If you are visiting the Higashi-Izu area for the Kawazu Cherry Blossom Festival, you can also experience the Japanese Doll Festival, also known as Girls' Day, held from late January to late March each year. The main venue is the Hina-no-Yakata at Izu Inatori Bunka Park, which requires an admission fee. The exhibition features thousands of miniature hina dolls and large hina decorations, which are colorful and symbolize the healthy growth of girls. Additionally, there are souvenir stalls where visitors can purchase hina dolls and decorations. If you want to buy some traditional Japanese cultural souvenirs, consider hina dolls and decorations as precious travel memories. Transportation: Get off at Izu-Inatori Station on the Izu Kyuko Line and walk for about 15 minutes.

I spent a lot of time waiting in line for photos at the first Susanoo Shrine, and then I took a long detour to get to Hina no Yakata because there was a fire nearby. And so time passed... Yesterday, there was a huge traffic jam on the other side of the road along the sea towards Inatori, so I gave up on seeing the Kawazu cherry blossoms under the blue sky 😭 What a shame 😭😭😭 Instead, I enjoyed the Kawazu cherry blossoms at Hinamatsuri Cultural Park. I hope I can go this year. #KawazuCherryBlossomSpot #KawazuCherryBlossomFestival #KawazuCherryBlossom #Izu #IzuTrip #DomesticTrip #0YenTripJanuary2025

"Atagawakan" located in Atagawa, Izu is an older hot spring hotel in Izu. The sea view rooms where you can directly see the sea in the room attract many people to come here specially. The lobby of a traditional hot spring hotel is also very grand. The high-ceiling design makes full use of the sea view from the floor-to-ceiling windows, and the Japanese-style table and chair space serves as a cafe for daytime relaxation. ‍‍‍There is a fixed souvenir shop on one side of the hotel. Most of the snacks on display are specialties produced in Shizuoka Prefecture. Many of the snacks are the same as the snack trays provided to guests in the guest rooms. If you like them, you can come here to buy them. There is also Shizuoka Oka green tea is a specialty and is suitable as a souvenir. ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ It can be said that every room in "Atagawakan" is designed for sea viewing. A pair of tables and chairs are placed in front of the windows facing the sea, making it convenient to sit and watch the sea. The guest rooms are typical Japanese inns, with traditional tatami and low tables. The TV and furnishings in the room feel as old as the inn itself. However, traditional Japanese-style houses are generally more spacious than Western-style houses. If there are many people, it is recommended to sleep on tatami. ‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍ The hotel's breakfast is usually delivered directly to the room, but for the comfort of the meal, the staff specially arranged another room for us to eat. After we were seated, a wide variety of small plates were served. There were as many dishes as there were plates, basically some small dishes, ranging from cold dishes to miso soup to juice.

Izu Bousui: A Healing Experience | Stunning Views The highlight of this trip was Izu, without a doubt. We booked Izu Bousui Onsen Ryokan, and the views and private bath experience were amazing. Scenery The lobby has huge floor-to-ceiling windows with a 270-degree view of the sea. The sunset is stunning. Even though I had seen many photos online, seeing it in person was still breathtaking. Every photo was amazing. Outside the window is the vast Pacific Ocean, and the view changes with the sunlight throughout the day, with sparkling waves. Private Bath We chose a premium private bath (90 mins) and got a free regular private bath (50 mins). The premium private bath we chose was "AO NO IZANAI." It was an amazing experience with a wide view of the Pacific Ocean. We chose the time slot from 2 pm to 3:30 pm, before sunset, but the blue scenery was also beautiful. The hotel also provided various drinks to enjoy, and the 90 mins were enough to heal the fatigue of the journey. Even though I had seen many photos, experiencing it in person was still amazing! The regular private bath we chose was "AO NO IZANAI." Overall, the bath was relatively small, and the view was not as wide (180-degree view of the sea), and the drinks provided were relatively limited. But honestly, the regular private bath experience was also great! If we had experienced the regular one first, we would have been just as amazed. We chose the time slot from 8:10 am to 9 am, and the sun was quite strong. If you want to see the sunrise, I suggest going earlier. Meals We chose the standard one-night, two-meal plan. Dinner was kaiseki cuisine, which was quite standard, with various fish and meat, but it didn't seem very fresh. However, there were many options, and we were full. Breakfast was rich and varied, and we were quite satisfied. If you have high expectations for meals, you can choose to pay extra for more advanced cuisine when booking. Snacks Snacks and drinks in the lobby are free to take. We had the best sweet potato fries of our lives on this trip. They were really delicious! We could have been full just from eating these. When we were leaving, we found that the small shop also sold them! We regretted not taking a few more bags! Later, when we returned to Tokyo, we saw similar fried dough sticks, but they didn't taste as good as the ones in Izu. They were crispier and not as sweet. Overall, we loved them. Izu's specialty orange juice is also available for free, and it tastes good. Transportation The hotel provides a free shuttle bus from Izu Atagawa Station, a 10-minute drive, which is very convenient. We called the hotel after we got off the train, and they immediately arranged a car to pick us up in less than 10 minutes. Highly recommended. Shizuoka Izu Bousui Hotel Bousui Ryokan

I'm Natsu, a makeup artist who loves to travel! This time, I went to Ginsui-so in Higashiizu 🌊 The building was very spacious, and many renovated areas were beautiful 🤩 First of all, when I arrived, I was able to drink a welcome drink in the lounge! There were various drinks and snacks prepared, from alcoholic to non-alcoholic 🍻 And you can have as many refills as you want! // You can drink as much local beer as you want, which normally costs 850 yen 🥰 The lounge is free to use because it is included in the accommodation fee, but it was such a good deal that I stayed in the lounge for quite a while 😆 The offerings change depending on the time, but I went during dessert time after dinner (19:00-21:30) and night time (22:00-24:00) 🍰 During dessert time, you can eat as many sweets as you want in a buffet style! During night time, you can drink as much whiskey, shochu, and cocktails as you want! Cocktails were both alcoholic and non-alcoholic, so even those who can't drink alcohol could enjoy them 🙂↕️ Of course, this is all free! // No extra charge!! It was such a luxurious space 😍 Because it's an old inn, there was a table tennis court and other old-fashioned places, which was fun 🤭 The view from the room and the view from the entrance were of course the best 😆 For meals, you go to the dining area, but this place was also spacious and there was a distance between the neighbors and some semi-private rooms, so it didn't bother me at all. The food was delicious with plenty of seafood 🐟 On the way back, I walked outside, and around the inn, there were people fishing and local cats walking around, and just being there and the time flowing slowly made me feel refreshed 😄 A once-a-year luxury! If you're going to Higashiizu, this is definitely one of your options🫶🏻 📍Inatori Ginsui-so 🗺️ 1624-1 Inatori, Higashiizu-cho, Kamo-gun, Shizuoka Prefecture🚃If you're coming from Tokyo, you can take the Odoriko Express to the nearest station in one go!

As soon as I stepped into this quiet place, my heart was completely conquered! Every brick and tile reveals a Japanese style, as if traveling through time and space, I came to ancient Kyoto. But the scenery here is more magnificent and romantic than Kyoto. The design of the hotel is simply ingenious, and every window is a beautiful picture. Pulling the curtains, the blue and boundless sea is in sight, sparkling, and intertwined with the sky to form a moving picture. At that moment, I took a deep breath, as if the air was filled with the freshness and freedom of the sea. Walking on the wooden corridor of the hotel, every step is quiet and peaceful. The soft sound of the waves in my ears, and the occasional cry of seagulls in the distance, all make me forget the troubles of the world, just want to immerse in this beauty, and never want to leave. The night view of the water is even more flavorful, the lights are dim, and the stars are shining. Sitting on the terrace of the hotel, holding a cup of warm matcha, quietly watching the waves hitting the shore, my heart is full of unprecedented peace and satisfaction. I really want to say that the view of the water is so beautiful that people are drunk and don't want to leave! If you also yearn for a trip to say goodbye, yearn for a baptism of the soul, then here, it is definitely your best choice!

🌸Slightly far from Izu-Inada Station, take the shuttle bus, but need to make a reservation with the hotel in advance. 🌸The biggest feature of the hotel is the open-air bath overlooking the sea! ♨️The room also faces the vast sea☺️With indoor hot spring and outdoor open-air various hot spring baths, if you want private space, you can also rent a private hot spring bathroom. Being able to relax while overlooking the sea in the ceramic bathtub, the water flowing directly from the source of the hot spring made my skin feel smooth. MIKIMOTO's shampoo is also great. 🍳 Rich buffet breakfast and dinner, dinner and breakfast are eaten in the room, lobster, bacon, seafood are very rich. The menu is mainly fish, which is typical Izu flavor. The curry beef rice for breakfast was delicious. 🌸Amenities, there are karaoke rooms, spa, massage, hair salon and sauna, super comfortable, and there are shops where you can buy souvenirs. #TokyoHotel

| Facing the sea, colliding with dreams. Because of a photo of the sunset, I decisively booked Ginsuiso and was filled with anticipation for the trip to Izu. We took the Izu Kyuko Line to Inatori Station (Figure 13) and then walked to the hotel. On one hand, we didn't have much luggage, and on the other, I like to walk around and explore unfamiliar environments. (If you have a lot of luggage or don't want to walk, you can take the shuttle bus provided by the hotel at the entrance of Inatori Station; if you can't find the shuttle bus, you can contact the hotel, and they will arrange a vehicle to pick you up, the latest by 7 PM). Opening the door to the room felt like stepping into the world of Hayao Miyazaki (Figures 2-9): Japanese-style tones, tatami mats, and a full view of the sea, so beautiful it felt unreal! Sitting on the small sofa by the balcony (Figure 4), gazing at the Pacific Ocean, it felt as if the sands of time had stopped at that moment. In the evening, a staff member will come to make the bed (Figure 9). The hotel offers 24-hour hot springs on the second floor (Figure 10). My friend and I changed into bathrobes and took a disposable bath package (including a toothbrush and disposable towel) to enjoy the hot springs. There are both indoor and outdoor hot springs, and it is recommended to go at dusk to enjoy the sunset while soaking. The hotel provides different themed desserts, drinks, snacks, fruits, and alcoholic beverages 24 hours a day on the sixth floor (Figure 11). There is a row of seats facing the sea on the sixth floor, so if you want to enjoy both the food and the view, try to arrive early. - The buffet breakfast provided by the hotel is very rich (Figure 12). Sunshine, the sea, and delicious food start a day full of energy~!
