It was a day of appreciation for Amakusa's seafood, starting with dolphin watching on a boat, then a hot spring at the observation deck across the street, and eating delicious red sea urchin for dinner.

Three of us went from Saitama last October. 🚙💨The bath was spacious and relaxing. It was great to see the nostalgic sea and Shimabara. 🌊🐬🐬✨For breakfast and dinner, there was so much seafood that I couldn't finish it all, and I was very satisfied with the unusually sweet salt. It’s fresh and plump~❗✨😄There are 200 🐬🐬, which are rare in the world, living there, and you can go dolphin watching by boat. 🌊🐬🐬🐬 I'm impressed~❗✨💖Even though I went to various places in my rental car almost every day and was late, they didn't make me feel bad and made me feel welcome. I was grateful. Thank you very much. ✨💖It comes with Ocean Bee, yukata, bath towel, towel, bag for bathing, air conditioner, washroom, and toilet, just like a ryokan. ✨It's family-friendly, cozy, and the food and the beautiful sun-salted sea salt are delicious, so I highly recommend it~❗✨😄

I stayed with my daughter for one night.The fish dish for dinner was amazing! ︎My daughter was very happy as it was her first time breaking open a live sea urchin and eating it, and pounding the salt pot. ︎The staff were very kind and the accommodation was very comfortable.

One night stay for three elderly people on March 16, 2023We enjoyed the bounty of the sea, including fresh sea urchin and spiny lobster.Although it is a guest house, the room has a toilet and sink.Across the road is [General Exchange Terminal Facility Yumer], where you can enjoy hot springs while looking out at the ocean.The breakfast miso soup with lobster was excellent. The local ingredients were delicious, so I visited a salt factory and bought some.

It's full of fish. It goes without saying that the food is fresh, so it's delicious, and as an added bonus, the hostess and daughters are very welcoming, and the rooms are clean. Perfect score for a guesthouse💯

I was also impressed by the red sea urchin I had for the first time (;∀;)You can also feel the hospitality in the wonderful breakfast.I visited here with my children and they were very considerate and I enjoyed the stay very much.Handle the squid you caught! Although I may be selfish, I work quickly and with a smile!I really want to go again!

The food was filling and was full of fish. It's a pity that there is no safe or refrigerator in the room 💦 I have to go to the hot spring ♨ in front of the inn to take a bath, so I can only take a bath once at night.
