Situated in Suo-Oshima Town, Yamaguchi Prefecture, Inn Ishinabetey offers a stunning view of the Seto Inland Sea. Although it looks like an ordinary house from the outside, once inside, a comfortably modern renovated space awaits. Large windows offer breathtaking island views, calming the mind as if beholding a painting.
One of Ishinabetey's charms is its one-group-per-day accommodation style. From 2 to 10 guests can exclusively book the space, allowing full enjoyment of private time. The open dining area and spacious deck are ideal spots for conversations with family and friends.
The bath is luxuriously designed to overlook the sea. Particularly special is enjoying the sunset view from the Goemon bath while soaking, a truly indulgent experience. Relaxing the day's fatigue and watching the ever-changing colors of the sky is pure bliss.
Ishinabetey's appeal isn't just the scenery. The dishes made with fresh locally harvested vegetables and fish are highly praised by guests. There are many rare menu items, allowing full enjoyment of the fresh ingredients' flavors. Especially, the rice cooked in the signature stone pot is exceptionally delicious, making you smile with each bite.
The owner couple, experienced in parenting, are adept at handling children. Since it's a private booking, little noise from children is not an issue, allowing families to relax. It feels like returning to your childhood home, offering a warm and homely stay.
Ishinabetey is the perfect hidden retreat for those seeking the scenic beauty, gourmet cuisine, and comfortable relaxation of the Seto Inland Sea. Although it's a popular inn with difficult reservations, why not visit once and make special memories?
