Facing Kobe, which means ‘Gateway to the Gods’, the tiny island of Awaji is one of the most spiritual places in Japan with its countless Shinto sanctuaries and villages that have grown up around a camphor tree which is believed to mark a sacred spot. It is in this enchanting setting that the Hotel Anaga has set down its roots with its large swimming pool, tennis courts, suites overlooking the sea and two restaurants, so that guests can alternate between local flavours and French cuisine.

Awaji Island is a paradise for fishing and cruising down the Naruto Strait, as well as being famous for its fine sandy beaches… So come relax in the Land of the Rising Sun.
