Ibusuki Seaside Hotel

On Kinko Bay, the Ibusuki Seaside Hotel is an unpretentious base for exploring the far south of Kyushu Island. Many of its western and Japanese-style rooms have sea views.
There's a large outdoor pool and a children's pool - and, in the warm summer months, there's the inviting sea to take a dip in. Gaze out over Kinko Bay as you soak in the hot spring baths or try the local detox speciality in a samushi onsen (or heated sand bath).
