Choose one of the three new suites in the annex and you’ll be enjoying a high-end Spa hotel... big rooms with comfy beds, European style shower-room, sun-deck with private hot-tub and great sunset views over the harbour, also enjoyed by the traditional Onsen baths.
Evening dinner is pricey but an investment in top quality Japanese Kaiseki - a tasting menu of the best local fish and traditional cuisine. Make sure you book the night before, as there are very few alternatives in the immediate vicinity.
There isn’t a lot to do locally but the hotel offers a free shuttle-bus to and from Wakayama centre.
Mostly though, you’ll enjoy relaxing on the sun deck watching the fishing boats come and go with their daily catch.
