Yufuin is a famous tourist attraction, and so the ryokan and accommodation in this area could be quite a steep as compared with the other places. I decided to splurge a little so that everyone got to experience something they have never done before – a luxury stay in Yufuin Bettei ITSUKI that came with great kaiseki dinner and a sumptuous heart-warming breakfast spread.
Yufuin Bettei ITSUKI offers only 14 independent cottages that filled with different themes and atmosphere. Some cottages can fit only 2 pax while some can fit upto 4 pax and there one cottage can fit up to 6 pax. Each cottage is equipped with exclusive private indoor and outdoor or semi outdoor hot spring bath. So every cottage is different, and each of them has different floor plan too!
