Hotel New Awaji
Indulge in ocean views and hot spring hopping on an exceptional getaway that showcases the best of Awaji Island.
Located on the waterfront overlooking the Kitan Strait alongside its sister hotels, this resort offers a relaxing stay surrounded by expansive sea and sky views and gentle ocean breezes.
Its greatest attraction is the hot springs, where guests can experience water from Sumoto Onsen and the hotel's own cloudy hot spring source. In addition to bathing in the various tubs at Awaji Tanada-no-Yu and Kuniumi-no-Yu, guests can also use the baths at sister hotels connected by a seaside corridor. The private open-air baths, set approximately 50 m above sea level, are also renowned for offering a luxurious experience with sweeping views of the horizon.
All guest rooms have ocean views and an open, airy atmosphere. Accommodations come in two styles: Villa Rakuen, featuring rooms with open-air hot spring baths, and Yume Daichi, which emphasizes traditional Japanese aesthetics. A wide variety of sizes and layouts accommodates everything from couples to multigenerational families and groups, with options suited to different travel needs.
Guests can dine at restaurants offering a variety of cuisines. Long known as a miketsukuni, or region that supplied food to the imperial court, Awaji Island is blessed with abundant seafood and fertile land. Seasonal menus feature freshly caught local seafood, richly sweet onions, and seasonal island vegetables. Awaji beef is especially notable for its fine texture and refined, flavorful marbling, creating a melt-in-your-mouth experience.
The hotel also offers a wealth of facilities to enhance your stay, including a tea lounge overlooking the Kitan Strait, a night lounge and cigar bar, spa and relaxation treatments, a health-focused juice bar, a shop carrying local specialties, a game and kids' corner, and a seasonal seaside pool open in summer.
Sea, hot springs, fine cuisine, and restful comfort come together at this expansive hotel, where guests can experience all that Awaji Island has to offer and create lasting memories of their island getaway.
