All 45 rooms have ocean views. Each room is decorated with artwork related to the ship. The artwork that incorporates the rudder and paddle, which were once used in voyages, creates a romance for the cruise. You can spend time forgetting while gazing at the ocean spreading in front of you.

3 A dish of kaiseki cuisine, with an attached “Kousei Menchi Nanbanzuke”
We have transformed the crow bandage, which is popular even in the local area, into a figure suitable for banquet dishes. The chopped squid and surimi are added with grated long to make it softer. After fried in oil, you can enjoy the sweet and sour flavor by immersing it in a specially made Nanbanchi (sweet vinegar) with flavored vegetables.

KAI ANJIN offers this beer on the top floor, the “San Buena Deck” where you can feel the sea breeze. For beer companions, smoked bacon and cheese will be prepared, which is related to the fact that they used to carry preserved food on a long cruise.

Local shaved ice “tea shaved ice”

Shaved ice is one of the summer traditions. In the ancient Heian period, it was also drawn on pillow Soshi. KAI ANJIN provides shaved ice with the syrup of black tea that has been popular in Britain since ancient times, named after the English navigator, Anjin, who gave the name of the facility. There are two flavors, milk tea flavor and lemon tea flavor, and you can enjoy the aroma and elegant sweetness of black tea.

The Ito area, which is suitable for growing camellias in a mild climate, can enjoy many camellia flowers in spring. The camellia oil squeezed from the seeds of camellia has been popular since the Edo period for food, medicinal purposes, and hair and skin care. Camellia oil is actively produced on Izu Oshima, which is close to the Izu region. In Kai Ito, you can experience making this traditional camellia oil and put it in a bottle to take home.

2 Local room “Izu Hanayome no Ma”

All of the guest rooms are “Izu Kakinoma no Ma”, a local room designed by expressing the four seasons of Izu with flowers. At the entrance of the guest room, the “Sunbeams through the sun”, which expresses the beginning of the season in the 24th season, welcomes you. Inside, you can experience the fresh flowers that are displayed between the floors and symbolize the season, and the view of the courtyard that you can see from the inside. We have prepared a “flower calendar screen” that expresses the four seasons with flowers using the flowers that live all year round and the threads dyed from tree branches. It is a guest room where you can feel the four seasons of Izu.

3 One of the kaiseki dishes, “Tomorrow’s leaf and shellfish wasabi’s new summer orange jelly”
We will provide a new item that brings out a new charm by using New Summer Orange, which is familiar tomorrow. Wasabi was added to the combination of auspicious ingredients of tomorrow, which used to be a long-lived long-lived medicine, and Akanishi, a conch that is said to make a wish come true. New Summer Orange, which is a representative of Izu citrus and has a refreshing acidity, is made into a soft jelly so that it can be easily entangled with the ingredients, and the whole is thoroughly mixed and tasted.

4 Summer hospitality
Blissful brewed beer

You can relax and enjoy the original beer developed by the world, which can only be drunk at the hot spring inn, while watching the quaint stone lanterns and plants at the “Yugatari”, which faces the Japanese garden in the hotel. The beer companion is “Kaname Tai”, which boasts the best landing on the Izu Peninsula in Japan. We prepare Kamaboko with loose meat and accented with Amagi mountain wasabi.

Local shaved ice “Flower-colored shaved ice”

Izu has a mild climate and is a region where you can enjoy seasonal flowers throughout the year. “Hanairo shaved ice” represents the flowers that bloom around Ito in the summer. It is a gorgeous item that looks like the yellow of yellow quince and the pink color of Abelia blooming in Lake Matsukawa in Ito City.

■Kai Enshu Detailed Information

1 Local music “Stay in cool tea”

In KAI ENZU, located in Shizuoka Prefecture, Japan’s best tea shop, we will introduce how to enjoy tea according to the summer. Under the guidance of the staff, the local tea “Tenryu tea” is brewed by yourself, and after combining Shizuoka tea and herbs from the highest tea field in Japan, a refreshing summer-like flavor tea is prepared. You can taste it.

2 Local room “Enshu Tsumugi no Ma”

All rooms are equipped with the traditional craft “Men Tsumugi” that has been handed down to Hamamatsu since the Edo period. It is a work of “Nukumori Kobo,” which continues to make scarce fabrics, and features a colorful and warm atmosphere such as shoji, lamp shades, and cushions. You can enjoy the view of Lake Hamana from all the rooms, and there is tea service everywhere.

3 A dish of kaiseki cuisine, with “Apricot and eel, avocado-seasoned greens”
The eel and cucumber vinegar products that are popular in the area are very compatible and are called “Uzaku”. So, in KAI ENZU, we combined eel grilled and diced cucumbers with lightly pickled cucumbers and avocado, which is a plant-based ingredient and has the same deliciousness and richness as eel. To add a mellow taste, add rice vinegar and radish. You can enjoy a taste different from the traditional “Uzaku”.
