forumWhat families say
Rakuten Travel rating 4.46 out of 5 (1,392 reviews). The swimming beach is very close, and several guests report that they could use the ryokan's changing rooms and the shower room reserved for staying guests even before check-in, which helped when changing children's clothes. Guests also rate the food highly, including Tottori beef shabu-shabu and nodoguro (blackthroat seaperch), and some praise the staff's thoughtfulness and how clean the building is.

Overview
Kaike Kikunoya is an inn facing the sea in Kaike Onsen, where you can enjoy salt spring water flowing freely from the source along with dishes made from live fish. The 31 rooms are mainly Japanese-style tatami rooms, including an 18-tatami large room that sleeps up to 8 guests, so it works well for families and groups. Children's rates for meals and co-sleeping are split between elementary school children and younger children: co-sleeping is 2,200 yen for children from age 1 up to those who have not yet started elementary school, and free for age 0. With wheelchairs available to borrow and the swimming beach about a 1-minute walk away, it is an easy inn to plan around even with young children.
Rooms
There are 31 rooms in all, mainly Japanese-style tatami rooms. The sea-side 10-tatami rooms, which have a bath and toilet, look out over the Sea of Japan, while the town-side 10-tatami rooms, which have a toilet but no bath, are Japanese-style rooms filled with the pleasant scent of tatami; 8-tatami rooms are available as well. There is also an 18-tatami large room that sleeps up to 8 guests, which suits families and groups. The Japanese-modern twin rooms use mattresses made by the Italian company Magniflex. On the top floor there is a special room with a hinoki-wood view bath, which is not an onsen. Guest rooms also have an air purifier with a humidifying function. If you want in-room dining for dinner guaranteed, you need to choose a sea-side Japanese-style room marked as in-room dining.
Dining
Meals center on kaiseki courses built around live fish taken from the tank inside the building, along with produce from the mountains such as Tottori Wagyu beef. Children's meals are divided by age: dinner for children who have not yet started elementary school is a single-plate kids' meal, and breakfast is a children's menu as well. Elementary school children are served a kaiseki course much like the adults' (with some items such as the appetizers left out), and it can be switched to the kids' meal if you let the inn know by the day before; changes on the day itself are not possible. For food allergies, consult the inn by 3 days before your stay: ingredients that can be substituted or removed will be accommodated, but items contained in binders, dashi stock and the like cannot be removed.
Onsen and Baths
The men's communal bath, Yusen, is on the 1st floor and the women's communal bath, Bisen, is on the 2nd floor, and they do not alternate between men and women. The source water is hot, between 65 and 83 °C, so it is adjusted by adding water and then flows freely from the source, and there is an open-air bath as well. Bathing hours are 3 p.m. to 1 a.m. the next morning, and 5 a.m. to 9:30 a.m. There is no private-hire bath, so in a room type without a bath you will use the communal bath when bathing with a young child.
