Kanyo Minamisanrikuhotel Kanyo overlooks the Pacific Ocean and offers a natural hot spring 2,000 meters underground
An exceptional location where the morning sun, the Pacific Ocean, and green islands intertwine
Kanyo Minamisanrikuhotel Kanyo is a floating sea lion on Shizugawa Bay in Miyagi Prefecture. Its stunning location overlooking the green islands and the Pacific Ocean, and the calm sea soothes the souls of its guests.
The inn boasts a large public bath and an open-air bath with a panoramic view of Shizugawa Bay, and the view of the sunrise rising from the horizon from the open-air bath is particularly exceptional. The sight of black-tailed gulls circling around will bring a smile to your face.
Minamisanriku Onsen located on the Pacific coast in Miyagi Prefecture, is a "deep natural hot spring that springs from 2,000 meters underground." We also recommend the hotel's signature seafood dishes, such as the "Minamisanriku Kirakira Donburi" (sparkling bowl of rice), which was originally created by the hotel.
Enjoy the Star Party with a Star Sommelier as your guide
The museum hosts a "Star Party" twice a month, opening up the rooftop to the public. Due to the miraculously high rate of clear skies, this astronomy event has been held over 160 times to date. The explanations by the "star sommelier" are so enjoyable that you'll find yourself drawn in.
A free round-trip shuttle bus runs daily from Sendai Station, making it convenient for travel within the city.
