- Hoshino Resorts KAI Atami
-
This famous Atami ryokan is located on a hill overlooking the ocean from the treetops of a large tree. Japanese culture, tradition, and aesthetics live on at the inn, which was founded in the Edo period. Everything about the inn sets it apart, from the "running hot spring" from which the hot spring water runs, to the ambience of the Outdoor hot spring "Furuhi no Taki," to the exceptional Japanese cuisine.

Local Guide FAQ
- What do you recommend in Atami area (location, Experience, gourmet)?
We recommend "Tokai" and "Taikobo", two fishing ponds in Ajiro, located in the southern part of Atami City. The best part is that you can casually drop in with nothing at all in Atami, a famous fishing spot. You can catch sea breams, horse mackerels, rock cod, striped horse mackerels, and other high-end fish, which will be cooked for you at the affiliated Restaurant.
- Please sneak in some hole-in-the-wall places that you know because you live there.
Atami is famous for its hot springs, and Nikkotei Oyu, which Ieyasu Tokugawa often visited for a hot-spring cure, is a hidden gem. The water, which is a chloride spring, is very smooth and keeps your body warm. It used to be a hot spring ryokan, but is now a Daytrip Destinations Property, and the rest area and hallways have a nostalgic and relaxing atmosphere.
- Where did you travel to last year and with whom?
My wife and I have been to Kinosaki hot spring in Hyogo Prefecture and Dogo hot spring in Ehime.
- What do you do on your days off?
On our days off, we either go fishing or take a day trip to a hot spring.
- Is there anything you always take with you on a trip?
I always stop by the convenience store as soon as I leave and buy a lot of snacks. Jarariko is my favorite.
