During my stay in May 2025, I was impressed by the exceptional service and cleanliness. The bath was spacious, well designed, and offered an ocean view, with water of excellent mineral quality.
Our room provided a beautiful sea view, and we enjoyed sleeping with the windows open, therefore I cannot comment on the air conditioning. The soothing sound of the waves was a delightful feature.
The hotel’s location is convenient, just a 15-minute drive from Toya Observatory Point. The on-site restaurant offers a diverse menu at reasonable prices (it’s one of those ticket vending machines kind).
For further reassurance of quality/value; we also saw many locals visiting as well.
I recommend taking a moment to admire the owner’s unique stamp and seashell collection, which features shell-motif stamps displayed alongside the actual shells.
PS. The room design is simple, so check out the pictures. But don’t let that...

in summary: baths are excellent but in the name of all that is good, sit still when you...
