A wellness resort for grown-ups,
filled with the bliss of the seaside

About 90 minutes by car from Tokyo. Motona Beach spreads out right in front of you, in an open setting wrapped in the sea breeze. Choose between the Beach Sauna, enjoyed to the soundtrack of the waves, and the luxurious, fully private Private Sauna. Alongside the two sauna styles is a Seaside Cafe with sunset views. A new kind of wellness resort for grown-ups, where mind and body gently find their balance.

“Totonou” in the sauna

Self-löyly, a cold bath of Mt. Nokogiri spring water and an open-air rest with a view of the sea. Let mind and body gently find their balance.

Gaze at the sea,
over a plate and a pause

Amid the soothing sound of the waves and the sea breeze, the cafe is open not only before or after your sauna: guests of the beachside hot-spring resort Yuumi and visitors who come just for the cafe are welcome too. Enjoy an open-air hour of good conversation.

From the Minamiboso horse-mackerel-fry burger and the Kisarazu black-wagyu burger to milk soft-serve, fresh shakes, freshly ground coffee and Kyonan Beer. Food and drinks, alcohol included.

Hours: 10:00 until 30 minutes after sunset
* Closed on days of rain or strong wind.

Voices

From our guests

Some of the comments we most often hear from guests of Yuumi Sauna Cafe.

  • Open Air

    An open-air rest with the sea in view

    Motona Beach right in front of you, and the sea breeze. The comment we hear most often is how exceptional it feels to rest outdoors while gazing at the sea. In the Beach Sauna you can head straight into the sea with your body still warm.

  • Sauna

    Wood-fired heat, self-löyly and a spring-water cold bath

    The gentle heat of a wood-burning stove and aromatic self-löyly. Guests also praise the silky feel on the skin of the cold bath, fed by spring water from Mt. Nokogiri.

  • Private

    Fully private, with no one else to mind

    In the Private Sauna, one party has the sauna room, cold bath and open-air rest corner all to themselves. Guests tell us how special it is to find their “totonou” at their own pace, without worrying about others.

  • Cafe & Sunset

    Evening light at the cafe

    After the sauna, take a break at the panoramic Seaside Cafe. Guests enjoy the full resort mood as they watch the sun sink below the horizon.
