Beach Hotels in Kawazu

The room accommodated our family of 5, and the hotel breakfast is one of the best I’ve ever had. The onsen was wonderful.

Nice location walking distance to restaurants and shops while being on the beachfront. The room had a beautiful view of the beach and an amazing sunrise. Very spacious and comfortable with yummy local snack to try on arrival. Plenty of parking available.

The breakfast was superb. A mix of both Japanese and Western style food. An absolute treat, and delicious! The staff take a lot of care to provide you with a beautiful meal, finished with a lovely coffee or tea.

Excellent! Different each day, but always generous and well prepared

Clean comfy and spacious home. Great amenities, easy check in and out. Loved this home! Perfect for families or large groups.

Kokoronodoka is nestled in the scenic hills above the stunning Imaihama Beach, just one station away from the famous Kawazu cherry blossoms. Its location is incredibly convenient—only a four-minute walk from the Imaihama-kaigan station. We stayed at this ryokan for two days and had an amazing experience. The manager personally attends to each guest with great care, offering a true showcase of Japanese hospitality. I highly recommend booking a room with an ocean view to make the most of the serene surroundings and enjoy a larger, better-insulated space. There are two private-use baths, each featuring both an indoor and outdoor section, allowing for a truly relaxing soak. Breakfast, served in the common dining hall at 8 a.m., was hearty and satisfying. However, I strongly recommend reserving the dinner in advance—it’s a full-course feast of local delicacies, including a beautifully arranged sashimi platter, fresh wasabi, flatfish crackers, and the region’s specialty, kinmedai simmered in soy-based nitsuke sauce. Dinner is served in your room at 6pm, allowing for a private and immersive ryokan dining experience. What truly sets this place apart is the warmth of the hospitality. We didn’t just enjoy our stay—we had engaging conversations, learned new things, and felt genuinely welcomed. The manager even offered to take photos of us without us asking, capturing beautiful moments of our trip. Both my husband and I left with the feeling of having stayed with family. We will definitely return in the future. For the best experience, I recommend having at least a conversational level of Japanese.

The area is incredible. The staff were friendly and helpful. The luggage elevator is handy and fun. The beach is amazing. The BBQs and kitchen are nice to cook some freshly caught seafood or use the meat vending machine for convenience. The location requires a little bit of a walk from the station but is lovely along the seaside. Getting down is also quite a trek but has cool lightning. Just great overall.

Clean, well-designed, top-tier hotel.

The room was basic, but very clean and comfortable.. The balcony had a great sea view. It was so quiet and peaceful. The owner was very friendly. It was up in the hills, so ideally you need your own transportation.

The home was very spacious, beds clean and comfortable and the kitchen had everything you need to cook for a large family. The sauna was used daily as it was a great amenity.

Location and view is an absolutely stunning. The views at night are very good. You might even see fireworks in the distance. The unit is very clean and very spacious. AC worked great! Kids like the beach but calmer waves you have to drive to another one.

Conveniently located across the street from the beach with ample parking and a simple onsen, this location was a perfect no frills escape for our family of 5.

The location was great, situated in a nice area. We had no trouble accessing the place, and it was conveniently close to the beach and a supermarket.

All staff members are very helpful. Especially the English speaking staff Mari is very helpful. I also like the delicious dinner. So tasteful! The outside hot spring has beautiful view of the ocean. Such a beautiful and pleasant property in front of ocean.

The private onsens were lovely. Yes, the view of the ocean is partially blocked by another building, but it's still lovely. Extensive breakfast, comfy tatami rooms with Western beds.

The Ocean front view and the hotspring were fantastic and unforgettable. Waking up with the peaceful view of sunrise over the ocean through the bedroom window was the BEST! The Breakfast was to die for, so many options and everything was delicious, including fresh fruits & salad. Can’t beat the experience and value. Wish we had more time to enjoy the Resort and beautiful private beach! Staff was most helpful and courteous!
