Outline of “Senshin Waho”, a Modern Japanese Wellness Stay

Senshin Waho, a modern Japanese-style inn nestled in the rich nature of Awaji Island, is a special place that proposes a “wellness stay” in a tranquil setting that helps to regulate the body and mind. In the large “Senshin-no-Yu” public bath, guests can soak in a hot spring bath and unwind from the fatigue of daily life, while enjoying a moment of healing in which the body and mind feel in harmony.

The menu is a creative Japanese kaiseki full-course meal that uses an abundance of Awaji Island’s unique mountain and sea products. Under the supervision of chef Nobuaki Fushiki, a fermentation and brewing specialist, the menu is inspired by the ancient culture of “nie” (food like seafood and edible birds), which was offered to the Imperial Court. Each dish is a memorable gastronomic experience where tradition and innovation intersect.

Its scenery, reflecting the nature of Awaji Island and the four seasons, gives visitors a deep sense of the beauty of Japan. In a space where the past and the present quietly resonate with each other, forget about everyday life and let your senses be free. At “Senshin Waho” you will be welcomed with genuine healing that can only be found on Awaji Island, and with hospitality from the bottom of our hearts.
