[Minamata City, Kumamoto] Limited-time rainy season accommodation plan with selectable transportation benefits: Free 10 liters of gasoline or one-way taxi fare from Shinn Minamata Station

Yunoko Onsen Umi to Yuyake, operated by Yunoko Umi to Yuyake Co., Ltd., will sell a limited-time 'Accommodation Plan with Selectable Transportation Benefits' from June 11 to July 17, 2026.

Minamata City, located at the southernmost tip of Kumamoto Prefecture, is sometimes perceived as being 'a bit far.' However, in recent years, the development of the South Kyushu West Loop Expressway has improved access by car, and the Kyushu Shinkansen allows for smooth travel from Fukuoka, Kumamoto, and Kagoshima.

On the other hand, due to persistently high gasoline prices and rising transportation costs, many people are refraining from traveling.

Therefore, with the desire for guests to 'enjoy a hot spring trip more casually,' the inn has prepared a limited-time plan offering a 10-liter gasoline ticket for guests arriving by car, and coverage of the one-way taxi fare from Shinn Minamata Station to the inn for guests using the Shinkansen.

You can enjoy the sunset over the Amakusa islands from our proud open-air bath.

■ Three Features of the 'Plan with Selectable Transportation Benefits'
