An Exceptional Natural Hot Water Spa Hotel in Yufuin, Japan with An Outstanding Restaurant
In the peaceful countryside of Kyushu, Japan, the Enowa Yufuin Hotel is a paradisical sanctuary of well-being. Its geothermal hot spring pools, delicious meals prepared by a recognized, talented chef, gardens, spa and beautifully-designed villas and rooms make it a truly special experience of nature, serenity and Japanese traditions. Treat yourself to a magical, rejuvenating stay!
My day began with a soak in my private Olsen pool of warm water and jacuzzi tub of hot water outside the sliding glass doors of my villa. Francine and trees made my backyard totally private. A stroll down a tree and plant-lined pathway leads to the restaurant/reception building. Breakfast was a multi-course, traditional meal prepared by chef Tashi Gyamtso who create farm-to-table cuisine at the Jimgu restaurant. I was lucky to enjoy a visit one afternoon to ENOWA’s farm with Chef Tasha to see - and taste - some of the herbs and vegetables they grow and use in the meals. Dinner was a tasting adventure of various delicacies during many courses.
The hilltop spa offers outstanding massages, facials and a sauna. The massage and facial I booked were wonderful - by a caring, highly experienced, dedicated masseuse. She was great!
I loved ENOWA and hope to return someday. Everything was outstanding - from the staff to my villa to the meals and botanical garden pathways. It is truly a serenity and wellness retreat.

It’s an excellent hotel. Design is nice, staff are helpful albeit that one could feel they are short of working hands. Everyone seems to be doing multiple jobs and looking overworked. Our experience has been very positive.

Absolutely stunning resort for relaxation. Perfect for nature lovers and those who enjoy Michelin starred meals made with natural ingredients and local herbs and produce. The service here is top notch. Highly recommended!

Remarkable, delicious, and serene
As a Foodie Traveler, my passion is to seek out extraordinary and distinctive tastes that are not simply delicious, but are part of a much larger story that inspires and delights. Enowa Yufuin Ryokan in Kyushu is one of those rare experiences that feeds not just the body but the soul. Of course the rooms had amazing views and private onsen. Beyond that, we savored three days at this botanical retreat where Chef Toshi san embraces his Tibetan roots as well as his Michelin experience in NY and Europe to create hyper-seasonal vegetable forward menus, most ingredients sourced from his own farm or Oita. The food on the main menu is decidedly not Japanese, but it is not exactly European either. Of the three nights we stayed, two days featured more western menus, one Japanese . All the meals transcend both, but to call it fusion would be doing a disservice. Toshi san’s Superpower is root vegetables. Beets, turnips, celeriac, sweet potatoes…more. He proudly showed off his many varieties of these plants during our private farm tour. His brilliant purées were silky, velvety, without a hint of bitterness. But these are not the butter/cream laden French approach, no sweeteners, nor was there the telltale bonito dashi undertone. Instead, there were vegetable stocks, fish and chicken consommé,, koji, Saikyo miso , and superlative technique. The fugu (blowfish) was prepared in many ways, sashimi, hot pot, tartare, and more. I’ve never been a fan until having it here. The uni chawanmushi was especially remarkable. So rich and thick it was if the custard had cream. The eggs from their farm (pictured in the fried egg photo) have extraordinary practically red yolks. Truly totemo tokubetsu. #thefoodietraveler #kuishinbo

Memorable experience
We had a wonderful stay at Enowa.The location is superb. The rooms (rooms and villas) are magnificent, new, and decorated in a very pleasant, minimalist Zen style.
The staff are extremely welcoming.
What's more, the dinner (and breakfast) we had at the restaurant was exceptional.
It began with a tour and an aperitif in the hotel's vegetable garden, where the ingredients for the dinner were grown. It was a memorable experience with a very friendly team.
Chef Tashi Gyamtso is attentive, friendly, interesting and discreet. He manages to convey his passion for the ingredients.
His cuisine, inspired by Alain Passard, is unforgettable.
A big thank you to the whole team.
