Hotel Meoto
A hotel standing at the edge of the surf, which prides in its special local seafood dishes
With scenery of the Meotoiwa Rocks (husband and wife rocks), a symbol of Sado's Nanaura Coast, Hotel Meoto stands on the edge of surf. You can walk from the hotel in your swimsuit to the sea with a great scenic landscape, one of the reasons for the hotel's popularity. The glow of the Meotoiwa Rocks in the setting sun and the fires lit on the boats to lure fish at night are extraordinary sights. Famous dishes primarily of seafood are also served at the in-house restaurant at lunch time. Exhibitions on the premises including the display of antiques such as sea chests are also impressive.
