Highlights
Jet BathAbout
A town-run inn in Ehime with separate indoor baths for men and women, each with its own sauna, cold plunge and a bubble jet tub. The alkaline spring water is smooth and slightly slippery on the skin. Three of the guest rooms have their own onsen tap, though it runs only at set hours, and two of them double as a bookable private family bath. Run by the town of Ainan, the inn has a relaxed, old-fashioned feel and sees a steady run of walkers on the Shikoku pilgrimage. The restaurant, known for fresh local bonito, is open to visitors who just want a meal.
