Ine

Ine’s boathouse stays mostly leave dinner to you, so plan meals before you book:

• Funaya Kyo doesn’t serve meals⁴.
• Funaya Inn INE Atarashiya is room-only, with partner restaurants nearby²⁴.
• Minagi is a whole-building funaya rental with a living room, a dining room and Wi-Fi²⁵.

Funaya Inn Tatsuki opened in April 2026, sleeps up to 6 and has no age limit for children²⁶. Fit in an evening on the water with the Ine Bay boat tour tickets and fares.

Dates that change your plans:

• The Gran Resort’s glamping can’t be used from 1 December to 15 March²⁰ because of snow.
