Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Coastal walking paths wind through neighboring Nagisa Park, just a ten-minute stroll from JR Ito Station.
The rooms
Floor-to-ceiling windows frame the ocean, with seagrass tatami flooring and artwork assembled from salvaged ship timbers.
The onsen
Soak slowly.
Natural hot spring water fills top-floor indoor granite tubs and open-air stone baths overlooking the ocean.
The spa
Traditional Japanese massage is arranged in-room, and the post-bath lounge serves chilled Shizuoka guri-cha and vinegar drinks.
At the table
Dining booths partitioned by timber screens serve local seafood kaiseki, and the rooftop deck pours draft craft beer.
How it began
The property draws its identity from English navigator William Adams, who built Japan's first Western-style sailing ships on this coast.
