Watching the ever-changing sea,
Three unique baths

The large public baths and open-air baths are connected across three floors. On the basement first floor there is Nami no Yu, which can be enjoyed even by those with bad feet, and on the basement second floor there is Umi no Yu, a large public bath filled with Shirahama's famous hot spring water. There are a variety of baths to enjoy, including hot, warm and cold baths, seasonal baths with mugwort, iris and yuzu, and waist-high baths. The open-air bath Sandan no Yu on the basement third floor is a standing bath with a depth of 120cm, which puts less strain on the body. You can enjoy free-flowing hot spring water from the source in the open-air bath with three different depths. At the entrance to the large public bath there is also a shampoo bar where you can choose from five types of shampoo and treatment.
The appeal of these baths, which Seymour takes pride in, is that you can experience the various expressions of the sea and sky that change depending on the time of day. You can enjoy the emotional seascape while soaking in the famous hot springs.

The open-air bath "Sandan-no-Yu" has three different depths. It is a free-flowing type bath with its own hot spring source, and you can enjoy the abundant natural hot spring water of Shirahama, one of Japan's three major hot springs, in all of the large public baths and open-air baths.

Adding color to the resort food scene,
Three types of eating styles

At the buffet restaurant "By the Ocean," you can enjoy meals suited to any occasion, morning, lunch, and dinner. The Shirahama Buffet offers about 100 dishes for dinner and about 80 dishes for breakfast, including freshly baked pizzas made from handmade dough brought from a special pizza oven, all served fresh from eight live corners. You can also enjoy a healthy salad bar, bread baked in the hotel's bakery, and seafood dishes.
For fish dishes, try the gozen menu at Ikesu Warouda. You can enjoy your meal at the 40m 50-seat counter overlooking the large fish tank in the center of the restaurant, or at the spacious raised seating. It also comes with a luxurious dish of live abalone steamed in sake. Freshly cooked golden rice and fish soup are also popular.
On the ocean side of Ikesu Enza is Sushi Yata, a counter with 16 seats. Looking out over the chef is the ocean of Shirahama. In this sea-like atmosphere, you can enjoy superb sushi made with fresh ingredients and made with care. The chef's choice nigiri sushi and other seafood dishes are delicious. As this is a popular local restaurant, make sure to make a reservation early.

The attraction is the food
You can't enjoy it all in one day,
Attractive resort menu

A day at the resort. There are many ways to enjoy it. The completely private "Sauna House" can be rented for exclusive use, where you can gaze out at the ocean view that unfolds before you and be enveloped in the soothing sounds of the waves. The sauna has a self-loyly sauna, a garden terrace with a cold bath, an open-air bath and an open-air bath, and a living space with a mini kitchen. Massage plans using organic oils and BBQ plans that you can enjoy empty-handed are also available for a fee.
If you want to exercise, head to SPA SIDE FIT CLUB, which is equipped with the latest machines from PANATTA, Europe's largest training machine manufacturer. Sweating it out will also help relieve stress.
There is a barrel sauna by ONE SAUNA on the side of the infinity pool, where you can also enjoy self-louvering.
One thing you should definitely enjoy is an underwater walk. Located 100 meters offshore, the Shirahama Underwater Observatory (Coral Princess) is 18 meters high and 8 meters deep, and from the 360-degree round window you can see about 30 kinds of fish swimming leisurely.
When you want to take a break, head to the Infinity Terrace and feel the refreshing sea breeze. You can enjoy sunbathing, or simply relax with some freshly baked bread and coffee, which the hotel is proud of. This 32m-long open space is a symbol of Hotel Seamore. In the evening, you can watch the beautiful sun sinking into the horizon, and late at night, you can watch the countless fishing lights twinkling on the dark sea.
If you are touring Shirahama, we recommend the "Shirahama Geo Walk" with a dedicated guide. If you want to enjoy walking, try the "Yuzaki Course" that starts from "Saki no Yu" near the hotel. It is a sightseeing plan that is filled with Manyo hot springs and untold stories from the Manyo period. Rental bicycles are also available at the Giant Store Nanki Shirahama inside the hotel, so we recommend cycling around Shirarahama Beach.
