In the Setouchi Retreat, there are two exclusive spa suite rooms, each offering expansive views of the Seto Inland Sea’s beautifully blue waters and islands. Utilizing an abundance of natural blessings from the Seto Inland Sea, such as yuzu, mandarin oranges, and pomelos, our original products enable a customized treatment experience. In this luxurious private space, guests can indulge in blissful all-hand treatments. The facility is also available for use by non-staying visitors.

ARCHITECTURE

In recent years, the ‘Setouchi Triennale’ has gained global attention. Works by Tadao Ando, such as the ‘Chichu Art Museum’, ‘Benesse House’, and ‘ANDO MUSEUM’ are located in Naoshima, the festival’s central venue. ‘Setouchi Retreat Aonagi’ stands alongside these as one of the representative ‘Ando Architectures’ of the Seto Inland Sea. The building, once partially open as a museum, has been renovated. It has been reborn as a small luxury hotel overlooking the Seto Inland Sea.
