Where the stars, the sea and the sky meet - "Villa Paradise" is where you can find
A luxurious room overlooking the Kitan Strait and the ocean.
A hotel that dominates the east coast of Awaji Island. The Kitan Straits can be seen below, and the vast ocean stretches out before you. The fantastic sunrise and ever-changing seascapes seen from the "Yume Daichi" guest rooms located on the 7th to 12th floors are incredibly dramatic.
The most popular is "Villa Rakuen," which has open-air hot spring baths in all rooms. There are high-grade suites such as the "Sea Garden" on the 1st floor, the "Star Garden" on the 4th floor, the "Morning Sun Garden" on the 4th to 6th floors, and the "Space Garden" on the 5th to 10th floors. As the catchphrase "Where the stars, sea, and sky meet," this hotel creates a majestic and elegant resort experience.
For example, the newest "Choyo no Niwa" has 21 rooms across three types. The maximum floor area, including the terrace, is 121.5㎡, and includes a Japanese-style room, twin room, living/dining room, bedroom, and a terrace with an open-air bath that offers a great view of the morning sun.
For dinner, you can enjoy a luxurious private dinner of special kaiseki cuisine. On the top floor, the sky lounge "Tenjo no Sajiki" (Seattle Box on the Top) is exclusively for guests and greets you with a panoramic view like a picture scroll.
The hot springs are the new "Sumoto Onsen Uruoi no Yu" hot spring and the privately-sourced cloudy "Komoe Onsen." You can enjoy them in the three-tiered "Awaji Tanada no Yu" and "Kuniumi no Yu" baths in the bathhouse "Spa Terrace Suigetsu."
If you add in the spectacular private open-air bath "Yumefusen" on the top floor and the Yubinkaku and Tengu no Shizuku baths at Awaji Yumesenkei, which are connected by a seaside corridor, you can enjoy a tour of seaside hot springs.
The attraction is the food
Awaji Island, where the "Land of Creation Legend" that opens the Kojiki lives on, is known as "Miketsu Kuni," a country that provided food, mainly marine products, to the Imperial Family and Imperial Court from ancient times to the Heian period, and is a treasure trove of ingredients, boasting a current self-sufficiency rate of 107%.
For dinner, you can enjoy the bounty of the sea and the land to your heart's content. The delicacies include seafood just landed at the port, such as cherry snapper and Awaji Island cherry salmon in spring, Awaji conger eel in summer, octopus and spiny lobster at their peak from summer to autumn, maple leaf snapper and autumn conger eel in autumn, and the branded ingredient Awaji Island three-year-old tiger pufferfish in winter, as well as Awaji beef, onions, Awaji rice, and Western vegetables, all of which are grown in the area's rich natural environment.
There are a variety of dining options, including the jazz-playing kamado dining room "Bar Awadō," the semi-private dining room "Shokunobo Shinsui," two restaurants, and the dining room "Shima to." Make a reservation to enjoy.
