Reviews of Beach Side Inn Shirahama 2 stars

We enjoyed the location right next to the beach and the Shirahama shrine. We also loved the two onsen baths for which you can get the key at the reception. We also did a small hike from the Tusmekizaki Lighthouse to Suzaki, along the Suzaki walking trail which offered great views of the coast.

Our family of four (two adults + two kids) enjoyed a lovely 2-night stay here. Short walk to Shirahama Beach! Staff were very friendly and helpful, and offered beach mats/floats for us to borrow. Enjoyed the cute paper-bag breakfasts handed out each morning. They offer free parking on site, and private onsen too which sadly we didn't get a chance to use.

Room is quite compact but since we left our luggages in the car and only took essentials, it worked out fine.

It is very close to the beach. The pineapple juice provided in the breakfast is the best I have ever drank. I will choose it when I come to Izu again.

Rooftop rotenburo was wonderful 🌟

Really hot in the upstairs hall

Had a great stay at the Beach Side Inn. Our hosts were outstanding and super helpful. The homemade breakfast sandwiches were superb, and the private onsens were a real treat. The location next to the beach was perfect. Easy enough to catch the bus or take a taxi in to Shimoda.

The room was clean. AC worked great. Staff was above and beyond nice.

We loved the home made breakfasts and the easy access to the beach. The owners were super helpful.

Breakfast was very lovely - super easy, but still yummy. Also great that it’s set up so you can take it away or eat there depending on what your day holds. The private onsens were also wonderful

This place is incredible! Great location, amazing staff, and a beautiful private onsens.

Beautiful location, really nice chilled vibe and the staff were lovely and super helpful with everything.

Beds were a bit too firm for me personally.

Very nice place near the Shirahama beach : the room was simple but with all needed and its private bathroom. The 2 outside private onsen are very nice ! We could not surf as there was no wave but you can park your car and use the outside shower until 14:00 after check-out, perfect for a morning session on the last day. Also, the breakfast was delicious (fruit juice, yoghourt, boiled egg and a very good sandwich) : you can have it on the go or eat it in the dining room !

Super Nice Onsen! We would like to come again

The place is very well managed and the hosts were extremely friendly, a good location if you're thinking of staying near shimoda but closer to the beaches. There were also 2 private onsens free of charge that we loved using and the free breakfast was nice as well. There was also free washing machine service provided. Drive slowly to reach the entrance because it's a tiny road

Overall, not much bad things to say compared to our other accomodations in Japan. The rooms are small so multiple big luggages might not work here.

Very cute and very wholesome, I loved it. It’s right across the street from the beach and a shrine, and we could hear the waves at night. The room was clean and simple with a simple bathroom. It’s a surfer’s paradise and we also saw a family there which was very cute. A very nice sac-lunch style breakfast was provided for us in the morning. They asked ahead of time if we had any food allergies, and they made us a lovely vegetarian sandwich for breakfast. Their system for onsen use was also great! They left keys for them private onsen at the front desk as a first come first served, and limited the use to 40 mins which is more than enough time. We used the stone onsen at night, and it was magical to be able to hear the ocean waves and gaze up at the stars. It feels like it is family-run and everyone, including the cook in the morning, was very friendly which is lovely. I will return here the next time I visit Shimoda!

The walls are a bit thin, but they warn you about it ahead of time and implement quiet hours because of it, which was not a problem for us at all.

Private onsen, next to the beach, yet quiet. Extraordinarily hospitable owners. All perfect!
