由㐂松
--- The property is not yet rated
Yukimatsu (由㐂松) is a compact coastal ryokan in Nishiizu with a traditional atmosphere and a total of thirteen guest rooms designed to make the most of the Sea of Suruga outlook. The lobby’s red sofa and the wood-accented communal spaces set a quietly welcoming tone, while several guestrooms face west to catch the region’s notable sunsets. The property operates on a small scale that emphasizes calm and local character rather than modern resort trappings, and its location opens direct access to coastal walks and marine viewpoints near Dogashima and other shoreline features; it functions as a ryokan with onsen Nishiizu for travelers seeking an authentic seaside stay.
Accommodations are arranged in classic tatami-style layouts alongside slightly larger units suitable for small groups, many with windows or verandas oriented toward the water. Meals focus on seasonal, primarily seafood-driven cuisine served in shared dining areas that reflect regional culinary traditions. Bathing facilities are supplied from a natural, continuously flowing source and are configured as public hot-spring baths rather than private in-room tubs, offering an onsen experience that emphasizes communal relaxation. Practical on-site amenities include guest parking and a roomy public area for reading or gathering between outings.
