These Are the 12 Best Off-the-Beaten-Path Hotels in Japan - AFAR
"A clifftop coastal getaway overlooking a chain of rocky islets in the Sea of Japan, offering water-view rooms (some with private balcony onsen), tatami mats, and washi wall art that echoes local sunsets. Guests are treated to nightly Kagura ceremonial Shinto dances recounting the origin myth of the nearby Izumo Taisha on the sea-facing stage, and can easily explore the nearby fishing village of Hinomisaki with its sea-weathered shrine. Kaiseki dinners showcase regional seafood and specialties such as Matsuba crab miso, local uni–topped sesame tofu, and Kobako crab gratin." - Adam H. Graham
