The horizon stretches across the windows at FUFU Jogashima. Below it, waves meet the island’s rocky shore; farther out, the surface of the sea changes with the light. A sofa, a bed and a private bath all belong to this same setting. The view accompanies the ordinary pleasures of staying in a room.
At the southern end of the Miura Peninsula, FUFU Jogashima Umikaze no Shirabe brings the sea into each of its 34 suites. The property opened in 2026 as the FUFU brand’s first oceanfront resort. Its Japanese name evokes the music of the sea breeze, a fitting starting point for a stay shaped by waves, weather and the long approach of evening.

The interiors take their cues from the coast. Walls and furnishings have soft contours that recall rock worn by water, while fabrics draw on the subdued colours of Jogashima. Against these gentle surfaces, the changing sea supplies movement.
Suites range from approximately 58 to 140 square metres. The 84-square-metre Premium Suite gathers the bed and living area into an open-plan interior. In the FUFU Ocean suites, the living room and bedroom are separate, with the largest category offering approximately 140 square metres.
In the FUFU Ocean Premium Suite, sofas sit beside tall windows overlooking the rocks and waves. A book can lie open on the low table while the view holds the afternoon.

(Paid link)The Bath Belongs to the Room
Every suite has a private, sea-view hot-spring bath, set indoors and finished in tile. From the bath, the sea remains part of the room’s outlook, bringing the broad horizon into a personal space.
The spring water comes from Aburatsubo and is classified as a sodium-chloride hot spring, with a clear, faint yellow-brown colour. A bath can become part of the afternoon, then return as a possibility after dinner. There is no journey through the hotel to reach it. The room holds both the place to rest and the place to bathe.
That arrangement gives an island stay an intimate scale. The ocean continues its own movement outside, while bathing remains a private ritual. Cloud passing over the water, a brighter interval of sun, the gradual loss of colour toward evening: each offers a different view from the same room.
Fish from the Coast, Fire at the Table
(Paid link)At the hotel’s Japanese restaurant, the sea has another presence. A live-fish tank introduces the ingredients before dinner begins. Fish and seafood from the surrounding region are joined by seasonal produce selected from across Japan.
Charcoal cooking is central to the kitchen’s approach. It brings fragrance and depth to fish and vegetables, while sashimi presents seafood in another register. Wine and sake accompany the Japanese menu. The restaurant also looks toward the sea and sky, keeping the landscape close to the meal.
At the window-side counter, the place settings face the rocky shore. Sashimi and charcoal-grilled fish and vegetables bring different textures to a meal whose ingredients change with the season.
Evening on the Rooftop
(Paid link)The rooftop terrace opens the view to the sea and the horizon. Drinks give a reason to remain as the light changes. On clear days, Mount Fuji may appear across the water; sunset is subject to the season and weather, part of the coast’s shifting character.
On the terrace, a drink and conversation can extend the evening outdoors, before returning to the suite and its private bath.
Jogashima invites exploration in daylight, too. The island has lighthouse walks, rocky shores and coastal paths. The hotel lists diving, snorkelling and private charter cruises among its bookable experiences; availability, conditions and advance reservations should be checked for the particular activity. A short walk beside the rocks offers its own way to encounter the landscape that fills the room’s windows.
Arriving at the Island
FUFU Jogashima is at 693 Jogashima, Misaki-cho, Miura, Kanagawa. The hotel estimates approximately 90–100 minutes by car from Tokyo or Haneda, depending on traffic. By public transport, the route runs via Misakiguchi Station, then a bus to Jogashima and a short walk; the published estimate from Shinagawa is approximately 130 minutes. A taxi from Misakiguchi takes approximately 20 minutes.
The final approach includes a steep slope, which the hotel specifically flags for low-clearance cars. It is worth checking the route before setting out, and allowing daylight for the arrival.
The following morning can begin in the warm water of the suite’s bath, with the sea beyond the glass. There is time to linger before breakfast.
