Izu Peninsula's Gifts, Wrapped in an All-Hand Treatment

The spa blends essential oils from kuromoji native to the Izu Peninsula and locally grown citrus to suit each guest's mood, offering all-hand treatments in a private space.

Six spa menu options are available, allowing guests to choose based on their purpose and available time.

Kuromoji and Citrus, Carrying the Memory of the Land

Kuromoji native to the Izu Peninsula

The Izu Peninsula has long been known as a production area for kuromoji. Records show that during the Meiji era, Shimoda was home to seven kuromoji distilleries, which exported their aromatic water to France as a Japanese-style perfume.

Kuromoji from the Izu Peninsula, grown under abundant sunlight, is rich in linalool, the main component that keeps hair, scalp, and skin clean, helping to condition the ground from which hair grows as well as the skin itself.

Because a pleasant scent is released when its twigs or leaves are broken, kuromoji has long been known as the "tree that heals fatigue," and is known for its calm, gentle sweetness.

Citrus grown on the Izu Peninsula

Thanks to the maritime climate created by Suruga Bay and Sagami Bay, the Izu Peninsula stays warm throughout the year with a low risk of frost damage, allowing different citrus varieties to be enjoyed across every season.

The refreshing scent of citrus is said to brighten the mood, and is also expected to help promote blood circulation.
