It was the perfect gateway into our Ryokan/onsen experience with beautiful & spacious accommodations in a super private and relaxing setting. Having our own onsen with view of the mountains was an absolute dream after a week in the big cities. The attentive staff were exceptional and brought dinner to our room that we cooked over the coals for a unique experience. Overall an incredible retreat to come back to after a busy day of onsen hopping. Truly a first class experience!

The property, experience, and staff was wonderful. It was very peaceful and quiet. The staff was accommodating and friendly. The private onsen and site onsens, plus the food experience makes it well worth the price. We also enjoyed the drive from Beppu.

Staff was wonderful!! Chen San and Kojima San made the whole stay! Property and grounds were magnificent! Food was marginal…beautifully presented but some items way over cooked,some way under cooked. All in all, a very memorable stay! Will be back! Domo arigato gozaimashta!

Very luxurious ryokan! The food was plentiful and delicious and the sky onsen views were incredible. The private onsens in our room was very roomy too! The whole experience was wonderful and the service was very good. Our main server, Divas, was very polite and attentive. The stocked minibar and check out present (packed lunch) were a very nice touch.

We stayed in the Yumemi room . It was spacious and beautifully designed traditional and modern mixed Japanese space. Loved the wooden beams and the private indoor and outdoor onsen. I highly recommend this place. Make sure to have the Kaiseki meal if you haven’t experienced it yet!
