Overnight stay at Yubama Onsen Lamplit Inn Miura Ryokan

An overnight stay at Yubama Onsen Miura Ryokan, a secluded, off-grid "lamplit inn" located at 700m elevation. Guests experience a "digital detox" as cell signals, radio, and TV are unavailable, and gaslit lamps are used for lighting at night. The inn offers Japanese-style cuisine using seasonal local ingredients and features 100% source-flowing hot spring water in both indoor hinoki cypress tubs and open-air baths. Note: Access requires a 10-minute walk along a mountain path from the parking lot.

Plan Details: Tucked away in the rich nature of the southwestern foothills of Mount Kurikoma at an elevation of 700 meters, lies the lamplit inn Yubama Onsen Miura Ryokan.
From the parking lot, tread 10 minutes along a mountain path to reach this secluded hot springs inn.
Cell phone signals do not reach here, nor radio or television. Use of the house-generated electricity is kept to a minimum, and at night guests live by the light of gaslit lamps. Enjoy passing an evening feeling close to nature and removed from digital life. Chat with friends and family, letting your thoughts wander freely, or engage in quiet self-reflection. How about indulging in a digital detox of the kind you can experience only here?
