The staff were super friendly and kind enough to give us great tips for sightseeing in Awaji. The room was exceptional with our own open-air Onsen and ocean view. The meals were exceptional and the restaurant had a great ambience. All the staff were very courteous and kind.

What could be improved: At the public bath I noticed that a foreign guest didn't shower before dipping herself in the Onsen. She went straight to the bath from the entrance door. Please provide a clear instruction at their check-in on how to use the onsen bath properly.

The private onsen, 7 course dinner, breakfast buffet. Welcome snack and drinks.

What could be improved: Just an suggestion- I believe the hair dryer was not as powerful as I would had expected. A better one would had been great.
