Pacific Northwest Welcomes New Nature-Focused Hotels - AFAR

"Located in coastal Long Beach, Washington and opened in June 2024, this first U.S. outpost of a Japanese outdoor brand offers a range of options from roughly four dozen self-supplied Field Sites to seven prepitched Tent Suites and 14 Jyubako microcabins (designed by Kengo Kuma). The Jyubako Suites include a queen bed with linens, a private bathroom, a living area, a kitchenette, and air conditioning; Tent Suites feature kitchens, dining space, and outdoor campfire areas, and all guests can use an on-site bathhouse. The property’s Ofuro Spa—housed in a charred-cedar building—offers a hot tub, cold-plunge pool, and hinoki cypress sauna, and a retail shop rents gear and stocks supplies. Open year-round, rates start around $130 per night for the Jyubako Suites, $120 for Tent Suites, and $40 for Field Sites." - Bailey Berg
