Kids Pension Fruits Juice Awaji-shima stands in the Ichinomiya Onsen area of Awaji Island, and only families traveling with children of elementary school age and under may stay - a child-first, family-focused pension that is rare even in Kansai. Because everyone around you is also traveling with young children, there is no need to worry about a baby crying at night or a child fussing at the table, and parents naturally get to know one another in the warm atmosphere that results.
A playroom open 24 hours and courtyard play equipment
The playroom inside the building is open around the clock, so it is easy to use when a baby is crying at night or when a child is too excited by a first trip to fall asleep. Inside there are toys, educational toys and a Plarail train corner that children love, and next door there is a play room for parents. The courtyard has swings, a wood deck, a seesaw and ride-on toys, making an outdoor space where children can play to their hearts' content until dusk.
A natural-onsen open-air bath just for children, a rarity even in western Japan
The weakly alkaline simple onsen known as the "beautifying waters," using 100% Ichinomiya Onsen water from Awaji Island, can be enjoyed as a private-hire bath for your family. Next to the private-hire family bath for adults is an adjoining natural-onsen open-air bath just for children, described as the first of its kind to open in western Japan. The tubs are made of Shigaraki ceramic ware, and the water is soft, leaving a refreshing feeling after your bath. Use is free of charge for staying guests, with a separate bathing tax of 150 yen per adult.
Handmade cooking by a vegetable sommelier and a confectionery hygienist
Dinner for parents is a Japanese-Western course prepared by a chef qualified as a vegetable sommelier, who carefully selects ingredients from Awaji Island and from the pension's own pesticide-free field. Flavors unique to Awaji Island include marbled Awaji beef and raw-rice bread and raw-rice pizza baked with Awaji Island rice instead of wheat (these are for breakfast, and they may not be available depending on kitchen conditions). For babies, a toddler-nutrition adviser makes baby food by hand for the early, middle, late and finishing stages, with seamless support continuing on to toddler meals and children's meals.
