Great location overlooking beach, with the sound of waves crashing all night (there is a road between hotel and beach). Staff were lovely. Dinner was a fascinating selection of local treats. Perfect little onsen on the ground floor. Free transfers to and from the station. Be advised, if you are coming by train make sure you are in the front carriage, as only these doors will open at Takeno.

The breakfast was delicious and so was the dinners as well! We had the Japanese breakfast and ordered the bento dinner and crab course dinner as well. The staff was very friendly and went out of their way to explain dishes to us.

We liked everything what wasn't there to like! I don't like the barley tea served with the room, but that's a personal preference and nothing to do with the property! Barley tea was at every Ryokan we stayed at.

Located in the small village right by the the sea with a small secluded sandy beach outside the window with only one local road between the inn and the beach. The food is delicious! The service perfect! The helpfulness is exemplary - they both picked us up and dropped us off by car at the Takeno station a few km away. The room was large with a great view of the sea from the sitting area by the window. The house's bath is good - of course.

A rare find. This place is special. I was there in beginning of June and the whole area was super quiet. I was treated very well by the staff during my 5 night stay and have left feeling relaxed and happy.

The sand on the little beach out the front of the hotel was a bit messy and in my opinion It needs a regular sweep. The main beaches (just a minutes walk down the road) were cleaner. There was almost nowhere else to eat during my stay in early June. But if you get a chance to go to Taiyou ya Restaurant for dinner you won't be disappointed. I had the best sashimi and sushi 🍣 I've ever had there.

The location is beautiful, the staff were extremely kind and polite, the whole vibe was comfortable. When it was time for breakfast, I was blown away-- the breakfast was so delicious and the our private dining room was so cool (including the view of the beach). Staff was very helpful during check out and when we left, they even gave us a gift. :)

The beach wasn't very clean.

There are two staffs ( Norma and Zahra) from Indonesia , we cannot speak Japanese but they are so helpful to us throughout our stay . Generally everyone is very courteous and try the best to make out stay safe and enjoyable . This place makes me feel like *I'm staying in an old friend's home*.

Fantastic location beach right out front. Extremely clean facility. Staff were extremely hospitable. We ate breakfast and dinner their daily, it was fantastic food, highly recommend. They offered us private onsen time daily as well. They had this shampoo, conditioner and body wash bar to choose from that was elaborate and extensive. What a special treat. Amazing facility and top-notch hosts. Highly recommend.

Nothing

It was the most beautiful house with absolutely stunning views. The rooms were spacious and very comfortable with an abundance of luxurious products. The onsens were incredible and my most favourite part of the experience was the people who worked there. They were super involved and we felt very cared for. We are seasoned travellers and this was our favourite stay by far!! Thank you Uminone!!! We miss you already!!

Location was superb! View from our large room overlooking the private beach and the ocean beyond was beautiful. Loved going to sleep with the windows open and hearing the sound of the sea. Extremely friendly staff and owner! Thank you, we would love to return one day and enjoy this wonderful part of Japan.

Uminone was a very beautiful and authentic japanese experience. We had great food (in room dining), a good time in the private onsen and the sound of the nearby ocean-waves was very comforting. The service was excelent (including pick up from the train station) and everyone was very nice and polite.
