I really like this place. The female owner has an inquisitive mind, a warm personality, and a kind heart. Her English is good enough to communicate and ask for help. The sauna and the private onsen in the room are top-notch. I did not check the public onsen with natural hot spring, but heard it's amazing too. I booked the 5th floor with an ocean view, and the private onsen experience during starry night and the set rise were indeed amazing! The hotel itself is located in a remote little cute fish town called osatsucho, where you can find fishmen and women harvesting and selling the Ise lobsters in the morning by the port. It was a very unique and interesting experience to stay in that little town for two days during the winter when it was not crowded at all. The nearest convenience store is 10 + miles away. It was a very natural, grounding, even retreat-like experience to me, and it was drastically different from my experience in Tokyo, Nayoga, or Osaka. I did spot a few demolished houses with broken windows in the town, not sure if it's because of COVID or during the winter when there were fewer tourists. The big plus is the Shinmei shrine next door to the hotel, which is a very calming and spiritual place to visit and stay for a bit too.
Located right by Chidorigahama Beach and featuring indoor/outdoor hot-spring baths, Resort Hills Toyohama Soranokaze offers Japanese and Western-style accommodations.

The staff were very kind and knowledgeable. I wanted to go to the Yokohama Observatory (which is expensive and hard to reach by public transpo), but they offered a shuttle ride to a train station, and also told me about Shima City tourism’s taxi promo. Very helpful!
Other than that, the room was bigger than expected. It had a small Japanese garden, which was a good touch. They also had a lot of fun facilities in the lobby.

Authentic old Japanese guesthouse. We found two fabulous restaurants nearby.
Featuring public baths with views of Ise Bay and a Japanese restaurant, Oishiya is a 5-minute drive from JR Futaminoura Train Station. The traditional rooms have an attached bathroom.

Oishiya is a fabulous fourth generation-owned ryokan on the coast not far from the magnificent Ise Shinto shrines of Geku and Naiku. While the town is rather dead, when you enter the ryokan, you pass into another world of luxurious calm (they ought to have a torii at the door!) Mr. Matsuda and his staff are extraordinarily warm, the hotel is absolutely beautiful and impeccably clean, the onsens private and public on the fourth floor are beautiful spots to unwind, and the kaiseki food is spectacular. We felt cared for at every turn, and we loved our night at Oishiya. And be sure to visit the remarkable Hinjitsukan, once a glorious ryokan, now an intriguing museum, a few doors down!
Experience culture authentically with a stay at these traditional Japanese-style accommodations. Sleep on the floor (on a futon roll) in a room furnished with tatami flooring and sliding doors. Guests can often expect access to a communal bath, plus a complimentary Japanese garment called a yukata.
The room was decent and fairly big. Available onsen (albeit nothing special), and free parking on site. Multiple restaurants in the immediate vicinity (which is useful, since the on-site hotel restaurant has apparently been closed for some time).
Breakfast was the best, good variety and nutritious with both protein and vegetables. Loved the onsen too! High quality luxurious property with consistent friendly service from all staff.
Small details like smooth check-in, onsen facilities, postal service, shuttle bus added to the extra touch.
Both breakfast and dinner each day were truly lovely. It included
interesting local seafood and it was a unique experience for us. The waterfront setting was stunning…being able to walk out on a pontoon over the water right off your bedroom was something you don t see every day. The onsen had a real focus on timber and it was well worth partaking in. Overall our hosts looked after us so well and we were really sad to have to leave.
I thought I had booked a Japanese -style room, but the room had two beds instead of futons. So the room was roomier than expected. The food selection was expansive for both Dinner and Breakfast - Western, Chinese, as well as the expected Japanese.
Nice Japanese-style resort. Very good dinners, very nice buffet breakfasts. Nice Onsen. Very helpful staff despite the limited ability to speak English.
Great hospitality. We got more food than we could eat.
Friendly staff.
The highlight was the location right on the water in beautiful natural surroundings and fishing spot.
The onsen was also great.
