Taiza Onsen Sumihei

More than six different natural hot springs, sea views, mountain views, Japanese=modern decor with designer kimono installations, and a heritage of over 150 years with a focus on cuisine, Sumihei is a destination in and of itself. Even the “standard” rooms are anything but standard, but for those who want an even more luxurious experience, there are large villa-type suites plus to luxury suites with private hot spring baths in the rooms. Of course visitors will want to tour around the variety of beautifully designed onsen baths Sumihei has on their expansive property. The facility also has a library with island-like lounge chairs, with complementary snacks and drinks (including local craft beer). One of this location’s main draws is the cuisine, as they have their roots in seafood cuisine, and naturally so as this area has some of the most sought after seafood in Japan.
