Shimoda Yamatokan

Featured amenities set the scene for a fun escape: snorkeling is free, there’s a beachfront location with an outdoor swimming pool and free private parking, and free wifi plus a free shuttle service help keep the mood breezy. Add a waterslide, free air conditioning, a terrace, a free hot spring bath, and a 24-hour front desk with non-smoking rooms; on-site parking is free, and conveniences like an elevator, bidet, free toiletries, and a bathtub with a balcony and view round out the experience. Some extras, such as beach umbrellas and kids’ meals, come with additional charges.

Sitting beachfront in Shimoda’s Kisami area, about from the city center, this spot sets the stage for sun, sea, and relaxed strolls along the shore. A seasonal outdoor pool awaits with an adults-only policy, a shallow end, and a view—a breezy splash spot after a day by the waves. Free private parking on site keeps the convoy easy, while the prime beachfront locale makes beach days effortless.
