Tofuya Resort & Spa Izu

The kaiseki cuisine, which evoked the atmosphere of autumn, was a luxurious way to enjoy the colors of the season and the flavors of the ingredients. Starting with an aperitif of plum wine, and followed by appetizers of baked abalone cheese and crab fukugisa egg, each dish was delicately and beautifully presented. The aroma of matsutake mushroom spread from the bowl of pounded conger eel and kudzu in particular, making one feel the depth of autumn. The simmered golden-eyed snapper had a sweet and spicy taste and stood out as a specialty of Izu. The special beef fillet was perfectly matched with the sesame sauce, and the final dish of local chicken and mushroom rice pot rice further enhanced the seasonal feel. To conclude the meal, seasonal fruits and chestnut zenzai were the perfect way to end the meal with a subtle sweetness.

First of all, it can't be helped that it was the time of my stay, but when I moved from my room, I was in a room in the hallway outside, so it was cold. I also enjoyed the old-fashioned retro style of the public bath. I had shabu-shabu for dinner, and the quality of the meat was good. What was disappointing was the behavior of a certain staff member. Do you understand hospitality?

I felt that the taste of the food was perfect. We stayed for 2 nights and had lunch with Japanese and Western dishes, but the deliciousness of Japanese food shines. I really liked the chef's seasoning. The toasted nori seaweed served for breakfast is in a wooden box and is warmed in the box. While eating, you can enjoy the texture of crispy grilled seaweed. The open-air bath in the room is also very good. I had time, so I did a 40 minute hike. Unfortunately, it was cloudy and we could not see Mt.Fuji. It has become one of the memorable inns that I would like to visit again.

I was looking for an inn with an open-air bath, a view of the sea, or the murmuring of the river, and ended up at this villa. The semi-open-air bath on the 2nd floor of the maisonette type is surrounded by green trees, and you can bathe while overlooking the river, which is really soothing. It was nice to have sofas on the terraces on the 1st and 2nd floors. My husband and I had brought work with us during our stay, but we enjoyed working on the computer indoors and on the terrace, taking a bath when we got tired, taking a walk around the lawn for a change of pace, and having a free drink at the Taishokan. Did. Looking at the reviews, we didn't have high expectations for the food, but when we actually ate it, the fish and meat were gently seasoned to bring out the flavor of the fresh ingredients, and the vegetables were sweet, so it really suited our tastes. . Also, I was impressed with the smoothie-like vegetable juice that I had for breakfast, which was made with soy milk and amazake. Most importantly, all the staff were kind, and they responded to each request carefully, so I was able to stay comfortably. It is an inn that I want to visit again.
