Very nice, very new hotel with large rooms. The hotel stands on a cliff, and outside the balcony is the surging sea. From the bathtub on the balcony, you can listen to the waves and watch the sunset. The breakfast is very rich, and there are few restaurant options around the hotel. It is recommended to purchase breakfast and dinner at the hotel. The first choice for Chinese and Westerners, suitable for self-driving travel.

The scenery is excellent, there are small beaches and seaside parks around, and the rooms are big enough. There is only one restaurant in the hotel, and the breakfast and Italian buffet dinner are very good. The old resort hotel is remodeled, the room facilities are okay, the bathroom facilities should still be old, and the bathroom is too small. The service also belongs to the style of a western-style resort hotel. There are not many staff, and there will be no one at the front desk all the time. It is difficult to communicate in English, but there is a young man who can speak Chinese. There are daily blackboard forecasts for tides and cruise ships. Dinner is not open on Wednesdays. Fortunately, there are several restaurants around the hotel that can still meet the demand, but there is only one sushi restaurant open for dinner... The important thing is that there is also a 711. The hotel's lounge (a small bar) is open all day, with a lot of alcoholic drinks and few snacks. Although there is no good wine, it has rich tastes and is worth trying. The hotel's pools should not be hot springs. The balcony bathtub is a bit small, and the selling point is still the scenery.

We visited with our family of five! You have to go quite towards the sea from Izu. ⚠️It's better to check the location carefully! The road is winding and there are few streetlights, so if you are not used to driving, you may want to be careful. The room was very spacious and we could easily open our suitcases, and best of all, the open-air bath in the room had microbubbles + the ocean view was very relaxing✨ The breakfast buffet had a wide variety of options, and you could drink alcohol! There was juice, alcohol, sweets, etc. in the lounge, so you could eat and drink as much as you wanted. The location was not that great, but the hotel's services and facilities were very satisfying♡

房間很大,陽台有浴缸,是舊的美式公寓翻新的,相比於其他伊豆的酒店性價比很高,早餐豐盛,服務員很有禮貌,關鍵有一個澳大利亞服務員小哥哥,英文交流沒問題,公湯如果介意有專門的遮擋的衣服可以穿進去,有洗衣房,大堂有泡腳的地方直接面對堂島看日落,一天基本都有免費的新品零食酒水,還可以帶回去房間,除了隔音差一些其他都無可挑剔,就是酒店的自助晚餐有點貴,品類少,性價比不高

This hotel is located a few minutes walk from the Dougashima Park. It presented an unique experience, different in many ways from our experience with Japanese hotels elsewhere. Check in was very personal. Seeing us arriving in a car, a staff comes out to help our bags and this same staff will check in for us. First of all, she asked us to sit down somewhere comfortably and she did all the required process from there. Afternoon drinks and snacks were very substantial, including wine, beer and quality juice. Whilst enjoying them in the scenic lobby was perfect, containers and carrying baskets were provided to allow us to carry them to our room to enjoy. We never had that kind of experience. The room was huge and modern. The view from our room is the most scenic and it comes with a balcony and a jacuzzi in it. We stayed half board. Both dinner and breakfast were buffet style and yet they were one of the best we had among hotel stays. If I have to comment, the check in time at 1500 was too strict by placing a sign post outside the hotel entrance. It indicated to us that we are not welcome to enter to wait even during a bad weather. The onsen was extremely well maintained but the variety of pools was quite limited. We were glad that we had jacuzzi in room.
Response from Property: Dear Victor K, Thank you for choosing to stay with us and for taking the time to share your feedback. We are delighted to hear that you had a unique and enjoyable experience at our hotel. We are pleased to hear that you found our check-in process to be personal and convenient, and that you enjoyed the afternoon drinks and snacks in our scenic lobby. We are also glad to hear that you found your room to be spacious and modern, with a beautiful view and a balcony with a jacuzzi. We appreciate your feedback regarding the strict check-in time, and we will take this into consideration for future improvements. We are also glad to hear that you enjoyed our buffet-style dinner and breakfast. We apologize for any inconvenience regarding the limited variety of pools in our onsen, but we are happy to hear that you were able to enjoy the jacuzzi in your room. We hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back in the future and provide you with an even better experience. Il Azzurri Shimizu

This is my second time here, following last year. The ocean right in front of me and the all-inclusive plan are the best. The service is straightforward and not bad. It's also nice that the inside of the building is clean (→ some inns don't clean well). Overall, I'd like to give it a high rating. However, I was disappointed that they didn't respond to my email inquiry. I can't think of any inn that didn't respond before. Thank you for your help.

When I parked my car in the parking lot, the guest's name was confirmed, and that person completed the check-in procedure and explained the facilities and services. Even though I'm over 50, I was able to enter the room smoothly and stress-free. The old building was remodeled. The room was very spacious and stylish. I think they probably combined two rooms into one and did a major renovation. There was a bath on the balcony and a hammock. The room also had a large TV, a large bed with a raised floor, a large sofa, a mobile speaker, a dressing table and a DeLonghi kettle. The large window had a great view, and it was amazing to be able to see the room and window through the bright light from the sink. There was no shoe rack or shoe rack, but it was 4m x 3m, and a round table with 4 chairs. You could see the sea, and I think everyone would say "Wow" the moment they entered the room. The facilities were so good that they could be mistaken for a luxury resort hotel, and I think they were comparable to a certain "⭐️ resort". The locks were old-fashioned, probably repurposed from old facilities. You had to carry your own luggage (maybe to reduce labor costs such as unnecessary guidance?) What do you focus on and evaluate? I think it's well thought out. In the lounge at the front desk, you can enjoy gelato in six flavors, including chocolate, mango sorbet, and strawberry, until 6 p.m. Enjoy a foot bath while enjoying sparkling wine and gelato. There is a large public bath and an open-air bath with a great view. I was able to meet my wife while eating popsicles in the hammock space next door. There is only one key, but it's stress-free. The food is delicious, with an Italian buffet. This class is amazing. The oysters and roast beef are hard to find anywhere else, and the main course is served at this timing, and is at the level of a specialty restaurant. We talked about bringing my wife and her parents over while they were still able to move around, and we were the type to get our own alcohol, except for the first aperitif, and drank the beer and wine after Googling them. After dinner, we had wine and beer in the lounge, took some coffee back to the room, and tried the bath on the balcony. It was cold, so we left early. Before going to bed, I enjoyed wine and cookies in the lounge, which is open until 10pm. This time I took some beer home with me and went to bed. The next morning, I went to the large public bath and saw fishermen on the rocks. Women might be able to see them when they stand up in the bath. After that, the breakfast buffet had some pretty good salmon roe, and crab, tuna, salmon, alfonsino, sweet shrimp, etc., served on rice, which was delicious. The other Italian dishes were also more delicious than usual, and the staff served the food promptly, so I was very satisfied. I would like to come again next time to show my parents my gratitude.

All rooms have an ocean view, and the beautiful scenery spreads out before your eyes, making this a relaxing hotel. Both the exterior and interior are bright and spacious. At low tide, you can see the tombolo that connects Elephant Island to the mainland. The lounge is easy to use, and drinks and snacks are available at any time. It's also fun to soak your feet in the attached foot bath and feel the sea breeze. Meals are buffet style for both breakfast and dinner. All-you-can-drink and all-you-can-eat, including alcohol. I think it's good that you can adjust the amount you eat, for those who get overindulged in large course meals at inns. The large public bath also has an open-air bath facing the sea, which is very relaxing. There is also an open-air bath on the balcony of the room. At night, there is deep darkness outside, and I couldn't relax because I'm afraid of heights. The staff are cheerful and kind. The location is also good, within walking distance of the Tenmado Cave, the center of Dogashima tourism, and the sightseeing boat dock.

Response from Property: Dear kkashi, Thank you for using Il Azzurri. Our hotel is located right in front of Suruga Bay, and all rooms have a sea view. The interior is based on blue, reminiscent of Italy. Our rooms are available from 44 m2, so we hope you were able to relax and unwind. We are very pleased to hear that you enjoyed our hotel's free-flow service. We recommend soaking your feet in the foot bath while watching the sunset with a drink in hand, so we hope you will try it again the next time you visit. For dinner, we offer the chef's Italian cuisine, and for breakfast, we offer a Japanese and Western buffet, so we hope that you will enjoy this rare dining style in Nishiizu during your stay. The main dish, baked in a high-temperature kiln at about 500°C, is popular with people of all ages and genders. The large public baths are equipped with indoor and outdoor baths for both men and women. On sunny days, you can also see the starry sky. We hope you enjoyed the sea breeze. The open-air baths in the rooms are divided into hot spring rooms and micro-bubble rooms, allowing you to enjoy a private space. As you said, as the ocean is right in front of the hotel, there are no lights at night and it is pitch black. We will consider illuminations so that you can use the room safely even at night. Thank you for your valuable feedback. We look forward to welcoming you at Il Azzurri again when you come to Nishiizu. Il Azzurri Shimizu

Il Azzurri is a resort hotel built on the cliffs of Dogashima Coast, a scenic spot in Nishiizu. First of all, the view is amazing. You can see the ever-changing Dogashima Coast in one glance. Sanshiro Island, which floats in the sea in front of the hotel, is famous for the tombolo phenomenon, and we could see the tombolo right in front of us from our room. There was a foot bath on the terrace, so we soaked our feet in it while enjoying the free beer and watched the sun sink in front of us. The location couldn't have been better. The alcohol-free option remains the same at dinner. Dinner is an Italian buffet, so you can enjoy free sparkling wine and red and white wine to go with it. The buffet included roast meat that would make a great main dish for an Italian course, and it was very delicious. Our room was not only oceanfront, but also spacious and extremely comfortable, as it was a twin room.

The weather was great and the view was great. The room was spacious and comfortable. Above all, the all-you-can-eat and drink option was very satisfying. However, there were some minor issues, which was disappointing. Some of the staff didn't even greet us. This time, we were able to stay cheaply using points, so it was good, but I wonder how it would be if we stayed at the regular price. Even so, the all-you-can-drink option was great. It was nice to be able to bring drinks to the room. We kept drinking from the moment we arrived and were totally drunk by dinner time❗️It was great, but it can be dangerous, so be careful lol I think I'll get addicted to it in the future. Thank you for your help.

Response from Property: Dear Extraordinary806273, Thank you very much for staying at Il Azzurri. Il Azzurri is located on a cliff overlooking Suruga Bay. We were fortunate to have good weather, so we were very happy to hear that you enjoyed the view of Il Azzurri. We are also very pleased that you enjoyed the spacious room with an open-air bath in every room, and that you enjoyed the free-flowing drinks, including alcohol. We are very sorry that some of our staff members were not greeting properly. We will share the information with our staff once again and improve to ensure that we greet our guests in a pleasant manner. Thank you very much for pointing out the problem. We have made it possible for you to bring the free-flowing drinks to your room and enjoy them, which is especially appreciated by guests who enjoy the spectacular view with their loved ones, so we will further expand our product lineup to make it even more enjoyable. We look forward to welcoming you again. General Manager Yamashita

The hotel we chose for our second night in Izu was Il Azzurri, located on the coast of Dogashima, a scenic spot in Nishiizu Town. First of all, the view was amazing. The hotel is built on a cliff overlooking the coast of Dogashima, so you can see the beautiful and varied coastline. There is a terrace facing the sea, where we watched the sunset over Dogashima Coast while sipping on free draft beer. Our twin room was spacious and had a flawless oceanfront location. It was also the perfect place to see the famous Sanshiro Island tombolo. Dinner was an Italian buffet. The main meat dish was very filling and more than enough to be the main course, and as a heavy drinker, it was great that dinner was alcohol-free.

It was a very good value hotel for the price at the time. It was a year ago, so it may have changed since then, but there is a bar that you can use at any time (they serve non-alcoholic drinks), and you can take them back to your room. There is an open-air bath on the terrace of the room. The only drawback is that the open-air bath in the room needs to be refilled every time you use it, which takes time. The food was also delicious. It was a good value hotel for those who drink alcohol.

Response from Property: Thank you for using our hotel, vanilla1210. Currently, all drinks, including alcohol, are offered free-flow in the lounge and restaurant. You can also bring drinks from the lounge to your room, so please rest assured. We apologize for the inconvenience regarding the open-air baths in the guest rooms, but we will improve the bath so that you can fill it with hot water without taking too much time. We are very happy to hear that the food was to your liking. We use a big oven that can heat up to over 500℃, and by heating it all at once, the local vegetables become even sweeter, which is very well received by our guests. We are improving every day, so we hope you will visit us again.

We were surprised by the interior, which was completely different from what we had imagined from the outside. It was our first time experiencing a free-flow style. Neither of us can drink alcohol, but there was a wide variety of soft drinks, which were delicious and raised our expectations. The ocean view room was spacious and nice, and my wife was very satisfied. We were expecting a bubble bath like a jacuzzi, so we were a little disappointed that there were not many bubbles. Also, the balcony was a little narrow, so we could hear the voices from the next door right next to us, which bothered us, so we hardly used it. On the other hand, the large public bath is not a free-flowing bath, but it is a good bath without any chlorine smell. The Italian buffet for dinner exceeded our expectations. All the dishes were delicious and well-seasoned, which was impressive. The grilled wagyu beef rump was very tender, probably because it was grilled on the surface in a 500-degree oven, and we were able to enjoy the deliciousness of the meat. All the restaurant staff were very hospitable. We were looking forward to breakfast as well, as the quality of the dinner was high, but it was just ordinary, so we were disappointed. It was a cloudy day, so we couldn't see the sunset or the starry sky, but I think it is a hotel with a good value for money. There aren't many accommodations that offer a good balance of price, so I immediately made my next reservation.

Response from Property: -zzrp, Thank you very much for using Il Azzurri. We offer all drinks, including alcohol, as free flow, and we are glad that you enjoyed it even though you don't like alcohol. As the name suggests, the microbubble bath is expected to have the effect of removing dirt from the body with fine bubbles. We apologize that the microbubble bath was different from what you imagined. We are also sorry that you were worried about the guest next to you and were unable to use the open-air bath in your room very much. We are grateful that you were able to enjoy the spring quality of the large public bath on the second floor without worrying about the chlorine smell. If the weather is good, we hope you will enjoy the view of Suruga Bay in front of you and take your time. We are very happy that you enjoyed the Italian buffet dinner and the service. The big oven, one of the selling points of the restaurant, heats and cooks at a high temperature of over 500 degrees as described, so it cooks without losing the deliciousness of the ingredients. Seasonal vegetables can be enjoyed without any special seasoning, so we hope you will enjoy them the next time you visit. We apologize for not meeting your expectations regarding breakfast. We are currently planning new ideas, so we hope you will look forward to breakfast as well. We understand that the weather was unfortunate, but we hope that the next time you visit we will be blessed with good weather, and you will be able to enjoy the sun setting over Suruga Bay while taking a bath in the hot spring on the footbath terrace and sipping your favorite beverage.

You immediately notice that the building is not new. The staff told us that this is a completely renovated ryokan that had closed down. The renovation and operation have made it a completely new resort. We visited a year after it opened, but the website has improved and various services that were not available when we made the reservation (free flow including alcohol and shuttle service from Mishima) have been added, and we regret not checking more carefully. The food, mainly Italian (if I had to say anything negative, the main dish of grilled beef and pork was terrible because the heat was not adjusted properly, so I left it, but the rest) was delicious, including the Japanese-Western fusion breakfast buffet. The staff were young. Some of them were inflexible, but overall they were well-educated. We were very satisfied with the location, the large public bath (part of the open-air bath is visible), the terrace bath (which is also visible), and the free flow service lounge including alcohol, which is a mystery as to how long it will continue.

Response from Property: Dear Immnotinlove, Thank you very much for staying at Il Azzurri. We are very sorry that the main meat was not cooked properly. We use a big oven in the restaurant that cooks the ingredients at high temperatures of over 500°C, and uses a cooking method that allows us to bring out the flavor of fresh ingredients. We will continue to improve and make improvements so that our customers can be satisfied. Thank you very much for praising the hospitality of our staff. We value your feedback and will continue to make efforts to provide our customers with memorable attention. Since the opening of Il Azzurri in the summer of 2021, we have been offering all beverages, including alcohol, as free flow in our restaurants and lounges. As it has been well received, we will continue to offer free flow, so please feel free to visit us. General Manager Keizo Yamashita
