A small onsen in Izumiōtsu, Osaka, Matsunohama Onsen draws on sodium-chloride water. The water emerges at around 38°C. The site includes an indoor bath, an open-air bath (rotenburo) and a sauna. A quiet wellness break away from the bustle.
Insider tip — 'Matsunohama' (pine beach) Onsen is a second hot spring facility in Izumiōtsu, steps from the first. The pine-beach name recalls the coastal character of this Osaka Bay shoreline. The two onsen in Izumiōtsu cater to a neighbourhood proud of its local bathing culture.
