Hot Spring & Bath Information

Large Public Bath

TypeNatural Hot Spring

Kasugazaki Onsen is a natural hot spring overflowing with abundant blessings. Because it contains sodium and salt, it delivers a high bathing effect, and the warmth after bathing lasts surprisingly long, helping relieve chill and fatigue. From the large windows of the large public bath or the open-air bath where you can feel the sea breeze directly, you can enjoy a blissful soak while gazing at the rough waves of the Sea of Japan, the beautiful sunset, and, at night, the fantastical fishing fires.

Private Open-Air Bath

TypeNatural Hot Spring

Three unique private open-air baths add color to your stay: Tairabune no Yu, Akadamaishi no Yu, and Atebi no Yu. These baths also use the abundant natural waters of Kasugazaki Onsen, the same as the large public bath, allowing you to enjoy a private soak without being disturbed by anyone. In a tasteful space inspired by Sado's famous products and traditional culture, you can luxuriate in exclusive views of the sea while soothing both body and mind.
