Gaze out at the Kannonzaki Peninsula stretching out into the Seto Inland Sea.

The bright blue expanse of sea and sky stretching into the distance will take your breath away. Even on overcast days, the view is spectacular with the islands seeming to float on a soft carpet of mist.

The view from the window is a shifting canvas. Small fishing boats head out for their catch, birds dance in the air, and large ships slowly pass by in the distance in front of the impressive Kurushima Kaikyo Bridge.

When you stay at the Shintoyo, time slows down to a crawl, allowing you to savor each moment.

Recline on the sofa and appreciate the passage of time – an activity rarely afforded in the modern era.

Wake up to the rays of sunshine pouring through the large windows and latticework.

On a full moon, the view across the water at night is breathtaking. The rays of moonlight reflect and undulate on the gently swaying waves.

Every aspect of this historic building tells a story, whether it is the heavy wooden beams, the delicate wooden fittings, or the ripples in the antique handmade window glass.

There are two bedrooms in total, one with a king-sized bed that sleeps two and the other with a queen-sized bed that also sleeps two.。

The mattresses are the "Hourglass Earl Grey" model, handmade by Japanese craftsmen at the famous Tokyo Spring mattress company.

The mattresses are made in Japan using the latest technology combined with precision Japanese craftsmanship. The superior grade cushioning and pressure dispersion will help you enjoy a restful night’s sleep.
