Kisyu Shirahama Onsen Musashi

A 12th floor room with comfortsble chairs at the window gave us a stunning view of the beach and ocean as we enjoyed sundowners and early morning coffee. The staff don't speak much English, but do make a great effort to assist e.g we wanted to hire bikes and they came back with a response pretty quickly (cheaper to hire from the information office up a side street from Shirahama beach). Futon beds are folded out at night and put away in the morning. We didn't use the onsen but there are 3 options; our kids would have paid ¥1,500 each per day to use them. Kimonos and slippers are provided in the room..Very conveniently situated to the bus stop and an easy walk to the beach and restaurants. We'd go there again.

Great place to take the family. Japanese-style hotel about 1 minute walk from a beautiful, white beach with warm, clear water. A lot of fun things for the kids to do in the area in addition to playing in the ocean, including Adventure World and Sandanbeki Doukutsu, not to mention nightly fireworks at the beach..
