Hotels near Ryugu Sea Cave, Shimoda

If you want to experience a Japanese-style family hotel, this is a very good choice! The hotel is located between Shimoda City and Kawazu Town, very close to the sea. My wife and I booked half board, and we were very satisfied with the food at the hotel! We stayed for three nights and the seafood variety was different every day and was very fresh and healthy. The owner and his wife are very hospitable. They print out the bus timetable for us every day, call us a taxi, and chat with us. They hope we have a good time. If I have to say something that needs improvement, if the WI-FI is better, it would be perfect! A very recommended Japanese hotel!

The hotel is located in a secluded area and it takes more than four hours to drive from Narita Airport, but once you enter, you will feel that it is well worth it. The environment is elegant and comfortable, the room is clean and spacious, and the private bath is great! Dinner and breakfast the next day were both served in the hotel restaurant. The ingredients were fresh and abundant, especially the famous local golden eye sea bream dishes. 

Wonderful stay—comfortable room with balcony, great shower, and cozy bed. Perfect location near the beach and an ideal base for exploring. The staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful.

Awesome view, awesome rental onsen, very nice room, breakfast is supper delicious.

Quite affordable considering its proximity to the beach. The place gives a homey vibe. It’s clean and quiet. It’s run by Aoki-san and Keiko-san, a really nice couple. Those traveling by public transport shouldn’t be worried about access as long as you check the bus schedule of the day. We got lucky going back to Shimoda station since Aoki-san was also headed there and gave us a ride. Definitely going back! ありがとうございました Aoki-san. 🥰

Traditional ryokan located away from town centre. Nice onsen facilities coupled with Good services. Hotel provides free shuttle service to the train station at check out.

Wonderful trip, tho the location ain’t so convenient but the staffs provided sufficient helps.

Very nice hotel; we had a great room with a sea view and lots of windows. Breakfast was good, but we would have liked to have the Japanese breakfast, which wasn't available. We couldn't eat dinner without a reservation.

Nice private beach with rooms facing the ocean! Big breakfast buffet. It’s a surfer’s spot!

All what we need…staff very friendly and kind
