BEACHSIDE ONSEN RESORT UMI | Kyonan, Minami-Boso, Chiba

SCROLL

Concept

Feel time pass with the view of the sea

UMI, a beachside onsen resort in Minami-Boso, is about 90 minutes by car from Tokyo. The sea spreads out right in front of you and the sandy beach is about a 30-second walk away. Seafood cuisine made with fish landed that very day, and guest rooms that all face the ocean. Slip easily into resort mode; a different kind of time is waiting for you.

Cuisine

Truly fresh-caught:
a feast of select seafood

The Kyonan coast, where Kinokuniya is located, is an exceptional fishing ground where the Kuroshio Current mixes with nutrient-rich water from Tokyo Bay, landing a wide variety of high-quality fish all year round. For our sashimi we use only local fish landed by the fixed nets of Katsuyama and Hota. Our menus incorporate seasonal local ingredients and change with the seasons; spring, summer, autumn or winter, savour a different side of Boso's cuisine with every visit.

From guests who have stayed with us

Here are some of the comments we most often hear from guests who have stayed at UMI.

Open-air bath at Umi, overlooking the sea

Private Bath

Misaki and Nagisa: private open-air baths that merge with the horizon

"Misaki", where the water's surface meets the horizon, and "Nagisa", where you can lie back in the bath. Many guests tell us that this time in a private bath, as if becoming one with the sea, was the highlight of their stay. At dusk you can watch the sea darken from the tub.

Seaside

The beach in front, the sea from every room

About 30 seconds' walk to the sand, and every room with an ocean view. Guests tell us that the view of the sea from the Terrace Lounge and Bar Lounge is what made them feel they had really arrived at a resort.

Cuisine

Fresh-caught seafood, at leisure in a private room

Seafood dishes led by local-fish sashimi, served in the semi-private and private rooms of Dining "UMI". Guests praise both the generous spread of dishes and the space to enjoy a meal without concern for those around them.

Hospitality

Smiling staff and thoughtful care for families

Kind, attentive staff and a building kept spotlessly clean. Private dining rooms and children's yukata are among the reasons many guests tell us they felt at ease staying with their children.
