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.
02Two Sauna Styles
Two sauna styles
to choose from
Yuumi Sauna Cafe offers two kinds of sauna: the wood-fired Beach Sauna and the fully private Private Sauna. The freedom of the seaside, embraced by sun and sea breeze, or the hush of a private room wrapped in hotel-like comfort. Choose to suit the occasion and your mood that day.

Beach Sauna
Beach Sauna
Motona Beach right in front of you, the flames of a wood-burning stove, the sound of the waves and the sea breeze. Aromatic self-löyly on a HARVIA wood-fired stove, a cold bath fed by spring water from Mt. Nokogiri, then a dive straight into the sea. Shared areas with a fireplace and an outdoor bath let you find your “totonou” at one with nature.

Private Sauna
Grown-up sauna time with particular attention to amenities, in shared spaces whose high-class interiors recall a members-only resort. A sauna room with a Harvia heater, a cold bath of Mt. Nokogiri spring water and a dedicated open-air rest corner that draws in the sea breeze, all exclusively yours in a fully private room.

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.
