SENSHINWAHO is a wellness inn on Awaji Island that pursues harmony between mind and body by combining the Japanese words for “mind washing” (to purify the mind) and “waho,” which means "ancient Japanese natural therapy."
At the “Senshin no Yu,” a hot spring bath where the spring water flows freely without being circulated, the mind and body are gently healed, and the fatigue of daily life is reset. Meals are prepared using the rich seasonal bounty of Awaji Island and cooked in a way that brings out the best of the ingredients, such as fermented, charbroiled, and smoked. Each dish is a creative Japanese meal created with health and beauty in mind, and served with care. As the perfect accommodation for those seeking an authentic retreat experience on Awaji Island, this inn will allow you to experience a time of deep healing and harmony of body and soul.
The hot spring “Senshin-no-yu” is a free-flowing hot spring that bubbles up from the source as if embraced by the earth of Awaji Island.
The spring water is a simple hot spring (hypotonic, slightly alkaline) with a gentle feel on the skin, and is safe for everyone to bathe in with little irritation to the body. Just by soaking in the hot spring, stiff muscles and joints, fatigue, coldness, and tension caused by stress will slowly melt away, leading to deep relaxation and tranquility of mind.
