1-minute walk from Yufuin and Kinrin Lake | Entire building · Natural hot spring villa with source spring water - Hibiki -

Just a 1-minute walk from Yufuin Kinrin Lake. The owner, who loves hot springs, bought the luxurious rental "Kinrin Lake Onsen Hibiki" because he fell in love with the quality of the spring. In August 2025, it was born as a high-quality, completely non-smoking space. The natural hot spring with a source spring is characterized by a thickness and softness that clings to the skin. After bathing, you will continue to feel moist and hydrated, and your body will be warm to the core. It is a special hot spring that has been reported to help people conceive. The bathrooms are designed by top designers, and you can enjoy the hot water overflowing from the hinoki hot spring 24 hours a day. In addition, we have a ReFa shower head, Dyson dryer, and MARKS & WEB's special amenities, and other facilities that are close to beauty and healing. The first floor has a spacious and relaxing living room, and the second floor has a calm design that harmonizes Japanese and Western styles. In addition, there are plenty of facilities for children, such as cribs, bouncers, chairs, and children's tableware, so families can enjoy their stay with peace of mind. Convenient for sightseeing, just a 2-minute walk to the Yunohei Highway. A memorable trip that doesn't end with "just staying" in Yufuin. Experience deep relaxation with Hibiki, limited to one group per day.

川辺の一軒宿 Togu tsubakiyama

Check-out is by 2 PM so you can enjoy a relaxing stay 😊 This is a room-only inn with renovated rooms in a traditional house on a property surrounded by trees. There are no buildings within sight, and you can enjoy the sound of the river, the chirping of birds, and a sense of oneness with nature. The tap water is also spring water (it has been tested and is safe to drink). Depending on the season, there are sometimes people who go up and down the river next to the inn to play in the river or head to Kappa Falls (150 m from the inn). If the weather is good, you can also enjoy a BBQ or a campfire (depending on the season and weather, we may ask you to refrain) with the ingredients you bring. (Please be careful when handling fire.) Rest assured, we also have cookware, a microwave, and dishes 😊 Please prepare food and drinks for dinner, etc., before check-in.(It's about a 20-minute drive to the supermarket) Only the 400m section to the inn is narrow and difficult to see, Once you arrive at Camu Tsubaki-yama, we will drive you to the lodging.This is also a great spot with a view of Mount Aso, so we hope you'll look forward to it.🌸
