Very convenient location. Its near big drugstore. Even u arrived late to ibusiki , for example 8pm, you can grab something to eat here.
They also got 3 bikes. It’s very handy to travel and discover other points of attraction by bike. Remember to pick the one with light

I'm giving a high rating for the warmth and hospitality of the host. She was very welcoming despite my delayed arrival, and immediately asked if I had eaten and then served me fresh homemade dumplings. She also took me to her favourite onsen with her daughter and friends, and offered me use of her bicycle. It felt a truly authentic experience. The host also speaks Chinese.
The room is like a homestay so is no frills. It feels lived in and very comfortable. I shared a bathroom with the host and her family and it felt like I was a part of the household.
I would stay again.

The seaview is good. The room is spacious and clean. The staff is polite and helpful when laying out the futon. The black sand bath is an interesting experience. The dinner and breakfast are yummy!
Ibusuki is a wonderful location with great food, great...
Ibusuki is a wonderful location with great food, great beaches and even better people.
On first look it may look like it has had it’s high tide many years ago, there is so much potential and there are projects in place to rejuvenate and inspire. A new beach is being created to capitalise on the existing beautiful white beach a 10min walk from the station.
Also! World famous award-winning ramen just 200m from the station at Menya Jiro (New Yorkers may already know that name).
Enjoy the unique to Ibusuki volcanic sand bath and cross the street for a simple and tasty meal at Angel or grab some tasty treats at the store downstairs.
Sadly, the best beaches are private at overpriced and stuck-in-the-80s hotels so stay at Kokoro-no-Yado for a reasonably priced spa experience with a walk across a sandbar to the island of Chiranjima. Then hit the beach I mentioned earlier and bring a parasol or anything for shade and enjoy the sparkling water.
Visit Ibusuki, walk around and see what it was and can be. Support Ibusuki. I think you’ll agree it’s worth your time.

Not much to see here.
Not much to see here. On the one evening we wandered through the streets the city seemed deserted and empty. The only real attraction is the sand bath. But as stated on there website you are not allowed to use them when you are menstruating. Why that is I do not know. I feel it is very ignorant and intolerant. The warm sand could be very beneficial to people with period cramps. Menstruating is not dirty or unhygienic.

Just 1 hour away from Kagoshima by train (JR Line), Isubuki...
Just 1 hour away from Kagoshima by train (JR Line), Isubuki is definetly worth to visit and try the local sand spas (around 1.200 Yen per person). Allow 2h for the this world unique experience. Bring a towel!
At the station your find the only 7 Eleven in the village. Is like 20 min walking to the Sand Spa (no bus available)
The Staff was very welcoming and helpful, starting with kindly greeting us at Ibusuki train station and generously providing a ride to the ryokan. Loved the traditional tatami room and wonderful hot springs (even with a private bath area). The owner was very responsive to communication via Booking message app and also has very strong English so all went smoothly. Breakfast on site was very good and convenient since restaurants are primarily near the station.
Very comfortable place with an awesome host in a quiet area. A free bicycle made everything in Ibusuki close and the host gave me a ride when I needed one. The stay made me feel at home and would be spacious enough for a full house. I extended my stay 2 times and keep this place in mind as one of the most heartwarming. The interior, kitchen utensils and washing machine were also very useful. Thank you so much for having me :) I had a great time!
Everything. The staff were amazing and treated us like royalty. They provided free shuttle rides to the port when a taxi wasn’t found. They gave me a wake up call when I overslept and prepared special breakfast. the location is not in the town centre but a train station is very close and a shuttle is provided. The food and the spa where both out of this world. if I could give them 11 out of 10, I would have done so.
Although a bit far away and long to get to by train, it is a nice hotel in a beautiful location. Just quick walk from the pool down to a fantastic beach below the hotel.
Although there is a restaurant at the hotel, it only serves meals to those who have it as part of their booking for you cannot order food there. So, you must go to the town about to kilometers away to get any food or convenience store.
The owner is super nice and cool! I really like that guy! There are plenty of bathrooms and showers - all clean. The beds were pretty comfortable, and you can tell some forethought went into the construction of the beds. The location is great! Super close to Ibusuki Station, the one and only sand onsen, and a few great restaurants. It feels really safe and is a great value for what you get.
Ibusuki was a bit too quiet (not a single sand bath open) when we visited but our stay at Kawakyu was what made it a good trip. You get to bathe in onsen water when you arrive, a few meters away from your room. The ryokan hosts were very nice and helped with rides, as it's tricky to go around without a car. Overall we're very happy to have picked this place.
Nice remote area of Japan worth exploring off the beaten tourist path.
Quiet , relaxing, beautiful view of bay.
Love the “onsen” - especially the outside bath sitting over cliff edge. Not talking about the pool. Which is very rudimentary- small wading pool only.
Staff is very nice and super helpful.
The hotel is located in a beautiful natural setting, on the seafront and with spectacular views. The hotel staff treated us very kindly and helped us with everything we needed. They even picked us up and took us to the station when we left. They made us feel at home! Highly recommended
This Ryokan is well located, you can easily reach the train station by walking. I felt very welcome and had very good recommendations from my host. I even had a car ride to the nearby sand bath which was really great. I booked with meals and they were very delicious original Japanese.
Great location on foot from sand bath, onsen, restaurants, konbini. Nice and responsive host: clear instructions, restaurant recommendations and very kind. We were by car, there was parking reserved for one car. Recommend this place if you visit Ibusuki!
The place is amazing not too far from the train station and the amenities are awesome and relaxing and. couple / family friendly . We love the onsen and sauna rooms and the restaurant food especially the chicken inside the onsen building is a must try .
About 7-800m from ibusuki station to accommodation, 1 room has 4 bunk beds, bed is about 3ft bed size, overall is very clean, laundry is free but drying machine is out of order. Accommodation is very quiet. I got well sleep.
Pro - offer unique hot sand onsen until 9pm, must try. Room is clean, specious, if you select sea view, you get best sun rise view from the sea. Inclusive dinner and breakfast were nice. Public onsen is as good.
This is my second time to stay in this fabulous hotel. Staffs are friendly and helpful. Very big, comfortable and beautiful hot spring. Food seems not as good as before, but still delicious.
The onsen is lovely. Staff were nice and tried to be accommodating. After a 30minute wait at check in finally agreed to accept meal reservation I had emailed them with the night before
It is located in the isolated area. It is inconvenient for the people travelling with public transportation, however, the hotel provided the quality of healing time.
The breakfast was quite varied, a good balance of all food groups.
Hotel was quiet. Nice balcony with a bay view, even through it was foggy one morning
