The view was amazing and we had the awesome pool all to ourselves. Yip it is 1.3km for the train station but so worth it so stay somewhere lovely, staff were amazing they even gave me free bday beers after some google translate chat. Breakfast was great, and having coffee and free drinks a nice touch One of our best stays in Japan!!

A lot of comments on location, so thought I’d put more detail in. The owners have very limited English. Easiest way to get there. Walk along the beach front to the pink house/fish shop. Walk up the alley behind the pink house for about 70 metres. At the sign marking 6.5m above sea level turn left, walk another 70 m up and alley (that looks like a narrow road). You get to a house with a garage underneath and if you look left again there is a smalll concrete path leading up to a flight of metal stairs

my dear friends, the view from the window is gorgeous. I just wanted to sit in my room and not go anywhere. Floor-to-ceiling windows, a balcony and even the not sunny weather did not spoil the impressions. luxurious dinner in Japanese style. good breakfast - in the room! 👍😃 room so big. But, better have the car. Without car will dificalt. But you will sleep with ocean view and wake up with sunrise... very polite staff, always ready to help you. enjoy, dear friends

Price :) in Europe you can get the sea view but with less price )) Of course without ocean )) or maybe i am poor only )) The staff speaks poor English.

The staff was so helpful! Thank you so much! I was in low season and it looked like I was the only guest that time and I got an even better room than booked. The sea view from the window and balcony was perfect! I just enjoyed it. My room was so spacious and really big in comparison with regular ones. The furniture was comfortable and in general, the room was clean and with plenty of useful facilities. Breakfast was served in the room and it was a tasty home-like traditional Japanese breakfast.

The location is not the best if you are traveling without a car.

Views from the hotel were gorgeous. And the gentleman - whom I believe was the owner - was very kind and welcoming. We arrived quite late due to delays in travel, but he was incredibly understanding when we called in advance notifying them of this, which was a relief. The room was spacious and the bed was comfortable. The breakfast, which they serve in your room, was delicious too. We also liked the free softdrinks/coffee section.

The hotel is off a winding mountain road which can have a decent amount of fast traffic depending on the time of day. Parking is available but can be a challenge if your car is on the big side. When we arrived there were no slots available in front of the property or the steep alley/hill running down to it, so the owner told us we could park on the "flat bit" off the side of the main road. That actually made it easier for us.

Blown away by the size of the room and the astounding views from the room. I can only compare it to one of the high end suites you find for 5x the price of a regular room. Definitely will be staying here again in the future. Breakfast was one of the best hotel inclusive breakfasts I've had in Japan. The staff went above and beyond to provide assistance with anything needed and even dropped me off at the train station after my stay. The beds were super comfortable too!

Finding it was a little hard, especially with googlemaps sending me to the wrong spot but it's my own fault for not accepting their offer to pick me up from the train station or taking a taxi. İt is one hell of a hike to get to, especially if you have 20kg luggage that you have to carry in your arms while traversing the mountain. But once again, it's my own fault, nothing to blame on the hotel. There can be quite a lot of sound that reverberates from the lobby but a simple towel under the door fixes that issue.

Very spacious room with nice sea view and a good breakfast in the morning brought in your room. It is a small town with a couple of restaurants, bring cash with you - or withdrawn cash by one of the supermarkets-. Good sushi restaurant and sort of Japanese pasta restaurant close by with very friendly owners, communication and menu only in Japanese but google translate is very helpful. The beach has black sand but the water is clear with sometimes some big waves and jumping fish which made it fun and a relaxing place after Tokyo. Also the small pool and the onsen was nice.

I asked the hotel -via booking.com- how we would get from the train station Usami to the hotel. We got no response. A route description would have been useful since it is almost impossible to walk from the beach to the hotel for the first time. At some point we followed the road for the cars to get to the hotel.

If I were to describe our stay at this hotel with one word, it would be; EXCEPTIONAL!!! Huge luxurious room. Extremely cozy bed. Peaceful onsen area. The front desk staff was the kindest gentleman who went above and beyond with his hospitality. We had a wonderful view of the beach and the mountains from the balcony in our room. Lastly, I had the best breakfast of my life at this hotel!

I would suggest public transportation or a vehicle to get to this location as it is a little hard to travel to on foot.

Fantastic location overlooking the beautiful sea. Enjoyed watching surfers in the morning from our balcony. Rooms very generously sized, clean, and had all the amenities we could ask for. Thrilled to have a king-sized bed in Japan. Check-in was easy and the staff was helpful in personally showing us to the room and also pointing out common amenities such as free drinks and the onsen. Parking is available with prior notice to the hotel.

I don’t think breakfast was available at this property and it would have been nice since other food options aren’t close by. We did pre-plan and picked up food from konbini the night before to have in the room.

My stay at Hotel Himalaya Sea was nothing short of incredible, as it offered a perfect blend of relaxation and luxury. The staff were exceptionally helpful and went above and beyond to ensure our needs were met, while the Onsen included in the stay added an extra layer of tranquility. The breakfast was a delightful treat, as it was not only excellent but also conveniently served in the comfort of our room. To top it all off, the spacious room boasted a prime location beside the ocean, providing a breathtaking view and soothing sounds of the waves. Overall, Hotel Himalaya Sea proved to be a truly relaxing and unforgettable experience that I would highly recommend.

Unfortunately, the Onsen was a bit dirty in my opinion.

I had such a wonderful short stay at this hotel. The gentlemen who checked me in was very kind, warm and welcoming, he went above and beyond to make my stay here enjoyable. The bed was really comfortable and there were proper pillows (not the ones with the beads which are common in other Japanese hotels). The room was very spacious, with incredible views. The shower and bath were great. Overall I had a wonderful stay and I will certainly recommend this to any of my pals travelling to this area! There is also a wonderful restaurant a short walk away called シーサイド・エス (Seaside 21). The receptionist can help you make a booking, the food is incredible and the owner is the friendliest person ever!

I did find it tricky to find the correct path to reach the hotel. My advice is to make sure when walking from the local train station that you do not take the left turn until you see a pink house, maybe there is an easier way 😂
