The room was very comfortable, but the buffet was a bit crowded. The hot springs were fantastic.
There’s also an amusement park nearby, so I’d recommend it for families traveling with kids.

Dogashima Cave Excursion Boat
Dogashima Island is described as Matsushima in Izu for its beauty. The best spot to see is the national natural treasure, Tensodo Cave. If you really want to enjoy it, hop on the boat that leaves every 15-20 minutes.
Breathtaking views and fresh air—everything was just wonderful 😊

Kabushima Shrine
Kabushima Island is one of the prominent nesting places of black-tailed gulls in Japan. Climbing up a flight of stone steps, you will find Kabushima Shrine, which was founded in 1269, standing on the top of the hill. During the Edo period, in the feudal domain of Hachinohe-han, the shrine had been worshiped enthusiastically by the successive feudal lords since the time of the first feudal lord.
After climbing the long stone steps, you’re greeted by a solemn and beautiful shrine.
The grounds are spacious, and you can enjoy views of both the city and the ocean—really pleasant scenery.
There’s free parking nearby and a small shop, which is great for sightseeing. Overall, a really nice experience.

Shibuya Scramble Intersection
This is a scramble intersection in front of Shibuya Station. Said to be the world’s busiest crosswalk, it has become a famous sight to see in Tokyo. From the pedestrian bridge connecting the JR Yamanote Line and the Keio Inokashira Line, you can view the flurry of people crossing the intersection from above.
Had to snap a quick pic!
There are way fewer people here compared to before COVID.
Otherwise, you couldn't even get close to the dog statue 🐶
