Set in Kawazu, 30 km from Shuzen-ji Temple, Mizumari features accommodation with a hot spring bath and an open-air bath. This ryokan offers free private parking and a 24-hour front desk. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a picnic area.

What an experience! We stayed at Mizumari during our honeymooon and I can honestly say we have never felt more welcomed, relaxed, and cared for than we did at Mizumari. Taiyo and his staff are truly incredible and work to meet your every need. For example, when we arrived, we mentioned a specific drink that we had enjoyed on our trip. The next day, Taiyo had sent someone to find the item and served it to us in several different forms. Everyone was so attentive and kind, and we were incredibly sad to leave! The food is incredible and plentiful- the best we had in Japan. We really loved the fresh and creative nature of the food, with a nice mix of seafood and meat dishes including locally sourced foods. The courses keep on coming so be sure to save space! We also appreciated that the staff was very helpful in recommending drinks pairings that go with the meal (and which are included in the booking price). The space was recently rennovated and has a very clean and modern look. We stayed in room 1, which has a large living room, separate bedroom and a patio overlooking the creek with a gorgeous and large onsen tub fed by the hotsprings. The entire space feels very private and quiet. The location is also great, a few steps away from the start of the seven waterfalls hike (which we loved- we had it all to ourselves when we went around 10am), and only a 20minute drive from the coast, where there is limitless hiking and exploring.

    The host went out of his way to make us feel welcomed and even personally drove us up to the Waterfall that we had come to Kawazu to see. He made us coffee each morning. The water from the bath is from the Mine Onsen which is a local Onsen. There is also a Tennis court. He is the loveliest man we met in Japan.

    The owner is humble, helpful, polite, kind, respectful, generous man. He gave us a ride to the 7 waterfalls as well he gave us a ride back to the train station because it was pouring rain on the day of our departure. The suit we stayed at was traditional Japanese and we had a private onsen just for us 2 on request. It was magical experience. The owner shared with us his fruits from his garden. Unique experience the best in Japan. We wish him all the very best and long and happy life.

    Fantastic location, first property at the beach side and only 5 minutes from the train station. Well preserved installations/facilities (tatami floor rooms with a sea view, restaurant hall, lobby, onsen areas). Fantastic selection of food for dinners and breakfast as part of the meal plans, cooked perfectly and served just as well. Finally, and for us most importantly, the staff is simply exceptional. They treated us like family from the moment we arrived till we left. Our stay was fantastic already, but they made it perfect.
