On a hill overlooking the bay, about a 10-minute walk from the northern end of Amanohashidate, this old but well-kept hostel has both Western- and Japanese-style dorms with shared bathroom, simple cooking facilities, rental bicycles (¥100 per hour), a cosy lounge, English-speaking owners and lots of helpful info. Breakfast/dinner costs ¥620/980.
To reach the hostel from Amanohashidate Station, take a local Tankai bus (¥400, 20 minutes, hourly) for Ine and get off at Jinja-mae; the last bus departs at 8.14pm. Follow signs toward Manai-jinja Shintō shrine. The hostel is just before the main torii.
