Guest Room

A Relaxing Living Room with a Sophisticated Atmosphere

The modern living room is accented with a custom-made blue sofa, creating a relaxing space. The large windows offer views of the pool and sauna over the terrace, allowing you to enjoy the changing scenery as time passes.

A Dining Table with the Warmth of Wood

The large round wooden table in the dining room evokes warmth. It blends in with the scenery outside the window and the seasonal light, creating a gentle and calming atmosphere. Enjoy a relaxing time with family, friends, and loved ones.

A Bedroom Designed for Restful Sleep

The room has two double beds, featuring soft linens and carefully selected bedding, ensuring a comfortable fit and a good night's sleep. The design incorporates natural materials, creating a setting that encourages deep relaxation of both body and mind.

An Open Japanese-Style Room Filled with Gentle Natural Light

Natural light pours in through the glass, creating a bright and open atmosphere. This allows you to relax in a Japanese space filled with the scent of tatami. Futons are laid out for sleeping, offering the comfort of traditional Japanese bedding. The tranquil setting allows for a special and memorable stay.

Large-Screen Movie Viewing with a Projector

An Aladdin X projector is installed on the living room's ceiling, allowing you to watch movies on a large screen. You can relax on the sofa and enjoy a luxurious time with your family or loved ones.

Cuisine

Hors d’Oeuvres and Bento Boxes to Suit Every Taste

You can also order hors d'oeuvres and bento boxes when making a reservation. The highly satisfying menu includes a barbecue set that includes "tonchanyaki," a local delicacy from Takashima City, Shiga Prefecture, and Japanese and Western-style hors d'oeuvres, all of which go well with alcohol.

Facility

A Private Pool with a Spacious, Open Feel

The private pool is designed to provide a constant sense of openness, while at night it is illuminated to create a fantastical and luxurious atmosphere. In this extraordinary setting, free from disturbance, guests can savour a truly relaxing moment.

A Barrel Sauna Embraced by the Fragrance of Wood

The barrel sauna by the pool allows you to enjoy a steam bath surrounded by the warmth and scent of wood. After warming your body to the core, you can cool down in a cold bath or pool. Gazing at the stars by the pool is a special experience at night.

An Island Kitchen for Cooking Your Favourite Dishes

The stylish island kitchen, with its black base, is equipped with a variety of seasonings, cooking utensils, a refrigerator, and more. Guests may bring their own favourite ingredients and prepare meals together with family or friends. In a space filled with natural light, it becomes the perfect setting to share a special time.

A Bathroom Overlooking the Poolside Through Large Windows

The bathroom features a chic design. A large, open window offers a panoramic view of the poolside, creating a luxurious atmosphere. The sink is designed with ample width for two, and the refined space features adjustable lighting to suit any occasion or mood.

Cold Bath and Open-Air Bath for Mind and Body Relaxation

By the poolside, a Shigaraki-yaki cold bath and an open-air bath are provided, allowing the pleasure of alternating hot and cold bathing in combination with the sauna. Guests can also unwind in the open air, savouring a true sense of freedom. The experience of reaching a state of "totonou" (the calming sensation after a sauna) while gazing at the star-filled sky is truly exceptional.
