[2025 Kawazu Stay] Travel Guide for Izu Imaihama Tokyu Hotel (Updated Mar)

If you want to see Japan's earliest #cherry blossoms🌸 you must visit #IzuKawazucho. Around mid-February to mid-March, the Kawazu region is full of cherry blossoms, as you can see by looking at the 2023 official website. Closed 3 years ago once flew to Tokyo, specifically to see Kawazu cherry blossoms. From Tokyo, take the Tetsu Yuko directly to Kawazu Station, about 2 hours and 40 minutes. The fare is very expensive, about HK$350 one way. Watching Kawazu Sakura really requires determination. It was already noon when we arrived at Kawazu Station. Many Japanese people watching cherry blossoms gather at Kawazu Station. There are stalls selling local fruits and dried fish on the roadside. I believe it will be more lively later. Cherry Blossom Viewing Location: I mainly walk the "Kawazu River" next to Kawazu Station. The Kawabe Cherry Blossom Tunnel extends about 4 kilometers, and there are more tourists here. Up close, the Kawazu Cherry Blossom Rui is larger and more pink. Villagers will sell fruits, vegetables, and specialty snacks on both sides. You can fill your stomach when you are tired of walking, but it's really hard to find a trash can😂. Walking a little further, you can see the "Kawazu Sakura Logs", the first Kawazu cherry trees, the logs are about 60 years old; Izuku soon gets into the evening and the store will close before six. It's easy to find food near the station. After dinner, you can enjoy the night cherry blossoms. Returning to the Kawazu River, the sky was gray and hazy, but spotlights illuminated both sides of the river to make it easier to enjoy the night cherry blossoms. Unfortunately, Izu is close to the sea, the weather changes greatly, soon there is a strong wind and heavy rain, tourists are fewer, but can not take beautiful photos of night cherry blossoms. 🤦‍♂️ Accommodation is recommended to book in advance. I remember three or four months before departure the hotel near Kawazu Station was full, only booked the "Kaneihama Coast" station mountain family-style small hotel, but than I eat the famous Kinmeji in the shikitaka-style hotel, can also soak a personal bath, great, and the owner and make friends. There are several hotels next to the station, such as the Imai Binto Kyu Hotel, which is rather expensive, but facing the coast, the view is excellent; After breakfast, we went to the hotel and took pictures wildly, because we didn't know when we would be back, to fill our memories. If you stay longer in Izu, you can go to Atami to soak in hot springs♨️ or visit Mount Omuro. You will definitely not be disappointed. #Izu Peninsula #Kawazu Sakura #Finding Your Travel Backpack #Kawazucho #Izu Imaihama Tokyu Hotel #Tokyo Suburbs #Kaneme Snapper

I stayed at the Izu Imai Hama Tokyu Hotel in Shizuoka Prefecture, Izu. The hotel is very spacious, not just the rooms, so I took a walk around the premises 🚶♀️. In addition to bars and restaurants, the hotel also has a pool, a children's play area, and a library, making it a great spot to enjoy even without leaving the hotel! The beach is right in front of the hotel, making it an ideal destination for a summer vacation with kids 🌻. I chose a plan that included breakfast, and the breakfast at the open restaurant was very delicious 🍚. 📍Location: 35-1 Mitaka Imai, Kawazu-cho, Kamo-gun, Shizuoka Prefecture, 413-0503

🌸The hotel is about ten minutes' drive from Hejin Station, and the hotel also has a scheduled shuttle bus to take guests back and forth. 🌸All the rooms are facing the sea. Although they feel a bit old, the rooms are clean, elegantly decorated, and have good sound insulation, making it very quiet to sleep at night. ♨️There is a special elevator for hot springs in the lobby on the third floor of the large public bath. Take it to the first floor and turn a corner to reach the indoor large public bath and outdoor open-air hot spring. I'm not sure if the indoor bath is hot spring water. I don't know if it's my sense of smell or if this is how the hot springs smell here, because I always felt that it smelled the same as the disinfectant water in the swimming pool. I didn't smell anything when I was soaking in the outdoor hot spring. 🌸The hotel's front desk is on the third floor. There is a staircase next to it that leads down to the restaurant on the first floor for breakfast and dinner. The door next to the restaurant leads directly to the swimming pool and the beach. If the weather is good, you can watch the sunrise. 🍳For breakfast, there are two types: Western and Japanese. There is a very popular alfonsino dish. It was sold out as soon as it was served for breakfast on the holiday. I didn't have the chance to eat it until the next weekday. It should be due to the origin of the alfonsino. The fish meat is very fresh and is stir-fried. The fish meat is super delicious. 🍙For dinner, there are three restaurants to choose from, including Japanese, Teppanyaki and buffet. 🍨Flore on the first floor has limited-time desserts regularly. I tried the strawberry parfait, the fruity and sweet ice cream was smooth and delicious. #Osaka Hotel
