Thank you for taking care of me for one night and two days. This accommodation is located across the street from the beach house Blue Marine. It was my first time staying at a facility with the name "Beach House", and both the guest room and toilet were clean. The only home appliances are a refrigerator, air conditioner, and TV. Staff very kind. You shouldn't expect the same service as a hotel, but I think it's fine if you can just take a bath and sleep. Several insects like pillbugs and snails came into the room at night, which was unpleasant.

We were allowed to use a beach house together.The cost is 1,200 yen per person, and you get one table in the tatami room inside the store.There are other rooms other than tatami rooms, such as terraces, but the prices will vary.We used a table for 4 with a nice view, so the cost was 4000 yen (includes beach hut usage fee)There is a charge for bringing in a cooler box, small 600 yen, medium 1000 yen, I forgot the large ^^;Inside is a cooler box about shoulder width.The prices are reasonable, including draft beer for 600 yen and grilled squid for 600 yen.There are also alcohol vending machines, including canned beer and shochu high for around 350 yen each.I felt like I could have bought something from a vending machine instead of having to bring a cooler box.The sea is right in front of you, so the view is great! It's also perfect for the beach!

I used it for a half day of swimming at the beach. There were only a few people using the room, but other than the fact that the shower room was separated from the changing room, there were no problems.Coin lockers were also installed so it was easy to use.

Too arrogant ownerIt's a shame in the service industry, I broke my bone, so even if you don't listen to the reason for cancellation 10 days in advance, I won't take care of you, and even if I pay the cancellation fee, I won't take care of you.It's better to cancel, this is an impossible response, I just can't say anything. to NagaokaIt's a pity that there are accommodations like this.

I have stayed in various beach huts, but this one is truly beautiful!The restrooms and changing rooms are also clean and safe for children.The store staff are also polite and energetic!There are tatami room seats, table seats, and terrace seats right in front of the sea! I'm glad the compressor is free!It's so beautiful that I use it every year! I can't use another beach house anymore!The sea is beautiful and you can see sea urchins when you go free diving! There is a rocky area nearby, and the kids are having fun looking for crabs and other things!

A well-equipped beach house located at Banjin Beach. It also has changing rooms and showers (extra charge), and is relatively clean and easy to use for a facility near Kujiranami. The shower is of course hot water. The sandy beach here has been selected as one of Japan's top 100 beaches, and you can enjoy activities such as free diving. The waves are relatively calm, so there are many families visiting the beach.Blue Marine is not only a beach house, but also a lodging facility. It seems to be often used for training camps. The food has a so-called beach house feel to it. We also do various rentals.

It's right in front of the sea and has good access! Unfortunately, there is only one smoking area. I can use the shower though! The time is so short that I think I need 200 yen. The indoor space is small and the floor is wet, so it's best to come early and get it outside.There is a refrigerator at the accommodation, but there are no cups. Do I need a paper cup? There are two bathrooms for home use. Maybe just a shower, even if I use it.There's a 7-Eleven nearby, so I thought I'd buy a few things. Not enough for dinner? oh dear. I guess it's not very luxurious.Check-out time is 9:30am, and if you're going to the beach in the morning, load everything except your fishing gear into the car before breakfast. Apparently it will be vacated for the next guest. If you do that, you can get a good spot like a terrace seat.

It's a very beautiful beach house.It's not just a typical beach hut with a tatami room, but also terraces and tent seating.Is there a charge for the shower or is it hot water?The restrooms are also clean, so women and children can use them with confidence.
