"Irisario no Yado Seaside Kancho" is a scenic hot spring inn located in Tano, Saigasaki, Wakayama City, Wakayama Prefecture. It boasts a superb setting overlooking the beautiful seascape of Wakano-ura, which was celebrated in the Manyoshu. The hot spring is the acclaimed Ryumonzan Onsen (sodium chloride cold mineral spring), known for leaving the skin smooth. The large public bath, "Arigato no Yu," features four different scenic baths, including three barrel-shaped tubs where you can feel the sea breeze and a boat-shaped open-air bath made with Koya-maki cypress, as if you were aboard a ship. A retro-style private bath and detached guest rooms with their own open-air hot spring bath are also available.
Enjoy an exceptional bathing experience while taking in the beautiful sunsets of Saigasaki, selected as one of Japan's 100 Best Sunsets, and, at night, the fishing fires flickering on the sea.

With four different baths, including a barrel-shaped open-air bath where you can feel the sea breeze and a Koya-maki cypress boat-shaped bath, both mind and body are gently relaxed.
