  • Dinner

    In the evening, we served a meal using plenty of ingredients from the island.
    Enjoy super-sized meals to your heart's content.

    You are free to bring in beer and other drinks,
    Guests are welcome to bring their own food during meals and enjoy chatting with other guests, which is very popular.
  • Breakfast

    This is a nutritionally balanced menu of Tokuno Island home-style cooking created by a service manager who is also active as a food lifestyle improvement promoter.

    The "Green Laver Miso Soup" is made with green laver picked from the Ino (inland sea) that spreads out before you, and has the scent of the seashore. It is a healthy dish to have when you first wake up.
  • Distinctive island ingredients

    At the guesthouse, we use locally grown vegetables and fruits as much as possible.
    We strive to serve wild vegetables, seafood, and more.
    However, due to the decline of the fishing industry, seafood from the island is hard to come by.
    For this reason, we are working hard on activities such as rockfish fishing so that we can serve fish and octopus caught in the nearby sea.

    I believe that the gassé (sawtooth crab) and istanaga (a type of amaebi shrimp) caught in the inland sea to the west are ingredients that you won't be able to eat at any other inn.
    If you are interested, please ask our staff.

    The natural green laver that spreads out in front of the guesthouse in the inland sea is harvested from mid-February to early May, and is a valuable ingredient at the guesthouse, used in miso soup, tempura, and tsukudani.
