△Somewhere to sit — A small rest area
○Anything else nearby — In the middle of things

A municipal hot-spring pool complex facing the sea rather than a traditional bathhouse - closer to a leisure centre. Worth knowing about precisely because it is the one place in Atami found in this survey that tells tattooed visitors how to be admitted rather than turning them away.

Every onsen on this site is scored against the same written rubric. This score has been reviewed by the editor. The ones marked Visited were also bathed in personally.

The baths

Indoor bath

A conventional nude onsen bathhouse on the 2nd floor, plus a swimsuit-worn 'health bathing room', heated pools, a rooftop pool and a water slide. The swimsuit zone is what makes this facility unusual.

Open to day visitors

Why Agoda for Japan: it lists a lot of ryokan and small inns that the Western booking sites never picked up, and it usually prices Japanese properties in yen, so you are not paying a conversion spread on top of the room rate. Worth comparing before you book — the difference on a ryokan is often larger than you would expect.

About the day-pass link: Asoview is the main place day-use onsen in Japan sell entry tickets and discount coupons in advance. It is a Japanese-only site, so use your browser’s translation — you show the ticket on your phone at the door.
