Beach Hotels in Shimoda

It's a bit far! But it's worth it Beautiful beach. They explained everything at the reception) booked a private Onsen. We swam in the pool at night ☺️ it's the best thing ever. The bar is open from 8 pm to 10 pm and the bartender Hiroku, who made us cocktails, an excellent gin and tonic for 300 yen - it's just a gift!!! Hiroku, greetings from the girls from Russia and thank you for the vacation!! The rooms are clean and cozy! You could leave your things after checking out and go to the beach BREAKFASTS! I have never had such breakfasts in any hotel in Japan)) omelet, vegetables, fruits, pancakes and unlimited coffee 🙏🥰 The view from the cliff is gorgeous 🥹 the Shirahama hotel is very cute and cozy! I recommend 🥲🙏 Unfortunately there was no transfer ((( But I would come back here again 😍✨🫠🙏

This was my first time visiting Minamiizu, and a friend recommended this hotel – it truly lived up to expectations! The accommodations were great, and the food was delicious. My only complaint is regarding the shuttle service. The day before check-in, I specifically asked about pickup details through Trip.com customer service. The hotel only sent a text message with the pickup time, but not the location. I assumed, like most hotels, that it would pick up in front of the JR station. To my surprise, I waited from 2 PM to 3 PM and saw no sign of the hotel bus. I started to feel something was wrong and checked Trip.com, where I saw a guest comment mentioning that after 3:10 PM, there would be no more pickups. Panicked, I immediately called the hotel. That's when I learned the hotel bus has a specific waiting point, around the corner, to the right of the JR station (and then to the right again). If this isn't communicated beforehand, and there are no signs at the station, it's impossible for guests to know where to wait. Therefore, I strongly suggest the hotel standardize its pickup service by clearly stating both the pickup time and location in advance. Both pieces of information are essential!

This hotel offers great value for money, with a good location and nice views. The ocean-view hot springs are a definite plus, and it's within walking distance to Shimoda Station, with convenient parking. However, there are a few drawbacks: 1. The facilities are a bit dated, though well-maintained. It's suitable for those who appreciate a more traditional style. 2. The latest breakfast time is 8:30 AM, which is too early for late risers. 3. The biggest issue was cleanliness: there was a lingering smell of *[redacted]* on the duvet cover, which was quite disgusting and suggested it hadn't been properly washed or disinfected.

Amazing place to stay,aesthetic view and a great amazing dinner and breakfast ambience. I choose and booked the private villa with pool and which is good,I enjoyed the dinner foods they served us,so classy and elegant presentation. So I ordered the bottle of botega champagne which is fit for the foods they offered. Lovely it was and amazing wonderful evening. After we had a night pool with my partner and we bring our own foods and drinks champagne for the long night to celebrate our stay. I’m very satisfied for my stay at this place. Staff was really nice and good at their service. Perfect 👌 I love to came back again soon… Thank you so much 🤞🏻❣️
