What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
The setting, right on one of Itoshima’s finest beaches, is idyllic, and gives each of the hotel’s 47 rooms and suites a view out to sea.
Somewhere quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
The Nishinoura coastal road winds past sandy shores toward Sakurai Futamigaura, home to the sacred wedded rocks standing offshore.
The rooms
Private oceanfront terraces accompany every layout, alongside in-room kitchenettes and deep bathtubs positioned to catch the salt breeze.
The pool deck
Bring a swimsuit.
A timber-clad outdoor pool sits beside the terrace, lined with cushioned daybeds and loungers facing the sea.
The sauna
Illuminated steps lead up to an outdoor Finnish sauna fitted with tiered cedar benches beside the terrace.
Restaurant
Eatery
Chef Sho Mawatari oversees an elemental tapas menu highlighting local seafood and seasonal vegetables along the open terrace.
How it began
The twin seaside buildings opened in 2024 as a modern self-hospitality retreat, before relaunching around a sunset beach club concept.
