The resort is positioned on the shores of Lake Saroma, the largest lake in Hokkaido, and presents easy access to nearby attractions such as the Wakka Wildflower Garden, Japan's largest seashore grassland.

Highlights
Location: Lakeside views of Lake Saroma
Rooms: Deluxe suite with jet bath
Dining: Buffet-style restaurant featuring local seafood
Wellness: Natural hot spring baths with panoramic views
“I'd say this resort benefits from its location overlooking Lake Saroma; the sunsets are remarkable, and all rooms have direct views, also, its hot spring, known as Netsu no Yu, is a true highlight, a bath of heat that's quite unique. However, the room design isn't great, with a cramped toilet/shower area. Still, the exceptional breakfast and access to rental bikes make it an acceptable choice for those seeking nature and relaxation.”
Emma JohnsonEditor-in-Chief at Toresort
