IKI RETREAT Kairi Murakami is a 12-room ryokan in Yunomoto Onsen on the north-west coast of Iki, an island in the Genkai Sea between Fukuoka and Tsushima, taken over by Onko Chishin in 2018 and reopened in 2020. Every room looks west over Yunomoto bay, known for its sunsets, and has an open-air bath fed straight from the inn's own hot spring.

Q&A
Tell us your dates and our team in Japan books it for you, at the inn’s own rate. We ask for the room we would choose and look after everything else with the inn on your behalf: your preferences and requests, any special arrangement, from a celebration to a car from the station, and whatever you need before and during your stay. The price and cancellation terms are confirmed with you first.
Guests with tattoos are asked not to bathe (the FAQ's answer, among its questions on the shared baths).
Iki, 20 to 25 minutes by car (flights from Nagasaki only); for most travellers Fukuoka, then 30 minutes by car to Hakata port and an hour by jetfoil.
