1. Top of the outside spa
In front of the Pacific ocean, on the top of the hill, without any railing… It’s the infinity pool.
You must be overwhelmed by the scenery, and you will never care about the spring source.
This facility has two baths( the third floor and the forth floor), which are each for women and for men, and changes daily. So, it’s up to the visiting day whether floor you take bath on. The outside bathtub on the third floor is 25 meters wide while that on the forth floor is 20 meters. They are almost like a swimming pool.
In addition, This spa has large saunas with large windows and also with enjoyable ocean view. I think, there is no place that you can see a beautiful scenery in like this. Moreover, 4 chartered baths are available. You can occupy the landscape in a private bathtub only with about 2500 yen per hour.
2. Stay overnight in onsen leisure center
If you want to stay, go to the hotel next to this one day onsen facility, “Akazawa Higaeri Onsenkan”. The hotel is Akazawa onsen hotel that has a pool, a fitness center and a tennis court. For the hotel guest, they are all free. Of course, “Higaeri Onsenkan” is available at no charge.
3. Abundant bath amenities
This owner company is DHC, that sells beauty products and health food in Japan. There are therefore plenty of bath amenity products in the changing room. Why don’t you try Japanese beauty products after the bath.
