Renovated in July 2017, SPA Inn Shirahama features free WiFi access and free private parking. The rooms have a flat-screen TV. Some rooms feature views of the sea or mountain.

It was an out of the way quiet 70's classic hotel, had a non functioning dining room with funky furniture, the red wicker giant capital letters LOVE you entered through was novel and this featured in the headboard of the wide beds and the also the table and chairs. The facilities were tired but clean and comfortable. the Shirahama caves are across the road and you get to see the most amazing sunsets. The bus stop is at the door. There is also the Shirahama plateau down the road. Shirahama Beach is an amazing white sand surf beach. However all rooms are smoking but we went and bought scented sticks from Daiso and solved the problem.

    Exceptional hospitality awaits you here! The food is sensational, culinary delights you will not forget. The view from the room overlooking the sea is mind-soothing, so are the optional morning meditations in the temple right next door. Particularily suitable for solo travellers I find, the cheerful and attentive hosts are locals and will direct you with great interest. I will come back!

    It's great location,, right next to shirahama beach and bus service. There' are no so many taxi, so next to bus stop is great 👍. There are also free shuttle buses, but in certain time only. Onsen is super cool, outdoor Onsen is a one natural .we didn't eat at hotel, but it easy to find nice food just along the street. We wish we could stay longer... The town is very quiet, many locals come during the weekends
