Experience of the stay
I enjoyed my stay on Awaji Island based at the Fairfield by Marriott Hyogo Awaji Island Higashiura! This hotel has so many wonderful features that enrich the travel experience.
First, in the lounge, I was able to relax while taking in the breathtaking view of the beach, and the terrace seating was comfortable with a pleasant sea breeze that made me lose track of time. Additionally, the free drinks were plentiful, including complimentary coffee, tea, and even miso soup! If I were to work here, I'd be incredibly productive! The Wi-Fi and outlets were well-equipped, and the comfort was exceptional.
The guest rooms also did not disappoint with Marriott quality. They were simple yet clean, with a solid sense of luxury. The presence of water and tea amenities was a nice touch! Furthermore, I was lucky enough to stay in a room facing the sea. At night, the beautiful contrast of the moonlight and the sea, and in the morning, the grandeur of the sunrise made for truly luxurious moments.
Inside the hotel, local crafts and interior decorations were displayed, and there were books available to learn about Awaji Island's history and culture, making it perfect for rediscovering the charm of the area. I was able to gather travel information comfortably while relaxing on the lounge sofa.
Additionally, this time, I received a lovely treat and 1500 Marriott Bonvoy points to commemorate reaching 15 stations in the roadside station project that Fairfield is implementing! The campaign can be combined with HafH, enhancing the sense of value even more. Plus, don't miss the souvenir received by answering a survey; this time I got "tako sen" to savor the flavor of Awaji Island.
During my stay, I constantly thought, "I want to come back here!" It was such a comfortable and enjoyable time! If you're looking for a base for sightseeing in Awaji Island, I highly recommend staying here!
Experiences during the trip
Upon landing on Awaji Island, my first stop was to take a break at the Awaji Service Area. This place is also enjoyable as a tourist spot! I happened to come across a Pokémon collaboration at Mister Donut, where I had a Pikachu donut as a snack. While being healed by its cuteness, I decided to ride the Ferris wheel. The view of the Akashi Kaikyō Bridge and the expansive sea from there was truly spectacular! Inside the service area, there are great viewpoints for Starbucks and plenty of souvenirs featuring Awaji Island's famous onions, including snacks and soups, making shopping fun.
For dinner, I splurged at the nearby sushi restaurant "Kintaro" near my accommodation. I savored fresh seafood and local gourmet food unique to Awaji Island, and everything was exquisite. I particularly recommend the smoked bonito, yellowtail, fish soup, and the seared Awaji beef sushi. I was deeply moved by the flavors, and both my heart and stomach were completely satisfied!
The next morning, I woke up early and went for a walk on a nearby beach before my online meeting. As I walked, feeling the morning sea breeze, I discovered shimmering sea glass and cute-shaped shells! Spending leisurely time in nature was the perfect way to refresh myself.
My time on Awaji Island was a wonderful trip where I could fully enjoy gourmet food and breathtaking views. Whether it's a casual day trip or a relaxing overnight stay, I was thoroughly satisfied, and I want to visit again soon!Get Extra Bonus Coins! Sign up with this user's referral code now!
