A blissful inn where fish-shop freshness meets 100% natural hot spring water straight from the source

Kumamoto Amakusa City

"Amakusa Shimoda Onsen Yumoto no Sho Yumebotaru" is a hot spring inn proud of its fresh seafood, sourced directly from a fish shop, and its 100% natural hot spring water served straight from the source with no added water, no heating, and no circulation. In the spacious open-air bath, the largest in the Shimoda Onsen area, and the retro, atmospheric large public bath, fresh water is always maintained through daily drain-and-clean maintenance. In addition to calm Japanese-style rooms, there are also rooms with private open-air baths where guests can enjoy a secluded soak. Guests can also savor the rich natural beauty of Amakusa's west coast and creative cuisine featuring carefully selected spiny lobster and local fish prepared by seafood experts.
