Know before you stay

The three things overseas guests usually ask us.

Partial Reopening of the Sand Bath

The sand bath, suspended due to Typhoon No. 18, will partially reopen today, Wednesday, August 26th, from 3:00 PM. As we will be operating while recovery work continues, sand bath space is limited and crowding is expected.

Up Escalator Out of Service

The up escalator has been out of service since Saturday, July 4th, 2026. An inspection by the contractor has found that repairs will take approximately three months. Please use the large staircase on the right when going up. Guests with limited mobility may use the slope at the far left and the intercom at the accessible entrance.

Overview

Experience the unique sand steam onsen at Sunamushi Kaikan SARAKU, a facility where you can lie on a natural sandy beach and enjoy the warmth of geothermal heat. The facility is open from 8:30 to 21:00 (last entry 20:00).
