A large-scale spa facility inside Hotel Marix Lagoon in Miyazaki City, Miyazaki Prefecture.

The cold plunge bath that supports post-sauna cooldown is kept consistently clean and is highly regarded by sauna enthusiasts for its stable chill. Other attractions include a large public bath, open-air bath, and reclining bath using semi-natural Komeiso hot spring water. With abundant hotel-style amenities and relaxation facilities, it offers a highly polished urban spa experience.
An artificial hot spring using Komeiso stone, approved by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare. More than 10 kinds of water-soluble mineral components released from the rare medicinal stone Komeiso, found in nature, help smooth the skin and warm the body from the core. Known as a soothing bath expected to help with neuralgia, lower back pain, and recovery from fatigue, it is also ideal as the finishing bath after a sauna session.
A full-fledged large dry sauna designed with Nordic sauna culture in mind. A large Olympia stove powerfully heats the room, while the spacious three-tier seating allows you to enjoy sweating at your preferred temperature. Stable high-heat settings and comfortable circulating heat deliver warmth deep into your body. In the calm atmosphere of a hotel spa, it offers a high-quality sauna time where you can quietly face yourself.
A crisp, cold plunge bath located just outside the sauna room. The water temperature is kept at an ideal level, instantly cooling and tightening your body after the sauna. The clean, tile-lined tub also helps maintain excellent water freshness. Its consistently cool temperature provides a reliable step toward deep relaxation afterward.
