Nui Than Tai Ebisu Onsen Resort

We spent about five hours there and still probably saw only half the park. Between relaxing, sitting down for lunch, and trying the water slides, time went by fast. We paid a bit extra for tickets that included the buffet and a mud bath. The buffet was okay, with enough options, and the food I tried was good, though it didn't wow me. The hot springs were amazing and so relaxing, and we all agreed our skin felt really nice afterward from the mud bath. We'll definitely come back to see the rest.

The park was quiet enough that I could move around easily, and the rides had almost no lines, so I got to enjoy them one after another. Staff along the paths were helpful when guiding people through the large grounds. Bring your own towel, since none are provided. I’d spend time in the water park and end with a soak in the hot springs. In the main area, there’s a really fun dragon-shaped ride that seems to run for about an hour, from 1 to 2 p.m. Don’t miss it!

The baths were a highlight for us, especially the mud bath, and there were cold, warm, and hot options too. We went as a group and had a great time. It’s a big place with plenty to do on land and in the water, though most activities seem aimed at children and families rather than adults. The views are nice, so check the photos before you go. The food was acceptable, but I didn’t find it especially tasty, which is what I’d expect from a buffet serving so many people. I’m not sure I’d visit more than once, but it’s worth going.

The baths, including the hot springs, made for a relaxing visit, and it seems like a good place to unwind. For families, the water park and jurassic park should be fun for kids. There are lots of food spots at affordable prices, and most staff speak English. The place is huge, but the free buggies were usually ready, so we didn’t have to wait long. There are many pools, though one wasn’t operating during my visit. I’d recommend buying tickets ahead of time, and checking what each special bath ticket includes, since some don’t cover everything. The different bath options and area map were confusing, and clearer zoning would have helped. Still, it’s a nice place to relax.
