■ A long-established inn on a remote island where time passes peacefully
TobaCity largest remote island, Toshijima.
There are three villages: Toshi, Wagu, and Momotori, and most of the islanders are involved in the fishing industry.
Toshijima is home to a rich natural environment and a ``heart-warming climate'' created by the island's people, and is secretly attracting attention as a tourist spot where you can enjoy strolling through the back alleys of the island and enjoy a variety of natural experiences. I am.
Suzunami is a long-established inn that has been loved on the island for many years.
You cannot go to Toshijima by car.
A short cruising ride of about 25 minutes on a TobaCity liner from Toba Marine Terminal near Toba Station.
Disembark at Wagu Port.
Several fishing boats are anchored, AmaHut(Amagoya)are lined up next to them, fishing nets are stacked up... This scenery gives you a sense of the island's lifestyle, which is supported by the blessings of the sea.
About 3 minutes walk from Wagu Port. Just like the exterior, you can feel the atmosphere of a good old Showa era ``hot spring inn'' from this lobby.
■ We pride ourselves on the freshness of our seaside cuisine, which incorporates seafood!
Kaiseki cuisine allows you to fully enjoy seafood caught from Ise Bay that surrounds the island. There are many unique items lined up. The photo shows the ``Luxurious Kaiseki with Oke Arashi'' where you can enjoy various types of sashimi.
The freshness of the seafood is outstanding, as the young proprietress, who is a rare female broker on Toshijima, purchases the seafood herself!
Choose the best ingredients of the day!
Every course is packed with high-quality ingredients. The ``Kaiseki with lobster structure and grilled abalone dance'' shown in the photo is also a course that takes full advantage of the quality of the ingredients.
The popular ``3 Great Taste Kaiseki'' is a dream combination of spiny lobster, abalone, and wagyu beef. The freshness of each ingredient is hard to taste. This dish teaches us the importance of freshness in food.
The custom-made ``Fried Ise Ebi'' is captivated by its daring cooking method and cute appearance. The crunchy batter is packed with the delicious flavor of the plump shrimp.
“Oyster hot pot” is also a recommended special dish. You can enjoy fresh oysters with a gentle seasoning that will keep you warm.
■ Heal your body while admiring the unique scenery!
Relax in the natural hot spring water while admiring the ``scenery that can only be found here'' where the island's townscape and nature come together. There are two types of large observation baths: men's bath (top photo) and women's bath (bottom photo). It is a space that creates a pleasant feeling where you can forget about your daily busyness.
``The view from the public bath'' teaches you about the history and culture of a remote island. It has a perfect balance of familiarity and extraordinary feeling, and you will be captivated by it for a while. We hope you enjoy the ever-changing scenery, such as the morning sun rising on the horizon and the sunset turning red.

■ Relax in the traditional "pure Japanese-style guest room"!
The guest rooms at Suzunami offer a warm and relaxing atmosphere that makes you feel as if you have traveled back in time to the early Showa era. This ``special room'' has another Japanese-style room, making it perfect for a family stay.
One of the special features of this inn is that the windows in the guest rooms are large so that you can enjoy the scenery slowly. The photo shows a regular type of room. Many people visit Toshijima for fishing, and it is said that they can catch rockfish in the spring and kisu in the summer. Even after enjoying fishing, you can relax in this room.
The view you see will change slightly depending on the location of your room. The view of the small mountains beyond the houses on the island has a unique charm, and it's a great angle to take photos of.
The ryokan that can be seen from the sea also has a nice appearance. We had a very fulfilling holiday thanks to the attentive service we received, including transportation to and from Wagu Port and detailed information on sightseeing in the area. thank you!
To be honest, I was more anxious than excited when I boarded the ship to go there, but on the way back I felt a sense of regret. One trip is not enough time to discover the charms of Toshijima. I was able to discover an island and an inn that made me want to come back again.
