LiVEMAX RESORT Izu Shimoda

The location & private onsen were the only positives to this hotel stay. The area is beautiful and fun to explore if you rent a bike for the day! This hotel however was dirty & uncomfortable. Prepare yourself for stairs because there are no elevators. The room we stayed in had mold behind the tub (the tub was not sealed so the wall behind was getting wet). The shower curtain was moldy. The AC unit was also very dirty & moldy. The bedding was stained & the bed was very uncomfortable. We could hear the TV in the next room & every door closing. When we went to use the laundry (which we had to pay for & for soap), the laundry room (open to the outside) was overcome by flying ants, mosquitoes, and beetles. It was nearly impossible to wash my clothes while constantly swatting away bugs & unsuccessfully trying to keep them out of the washer & dryer. I complained & when we came back the bugs were gone and the door was closed, but I have no idea why that wasn’t taken care of before we complained. At the end of our stay, we wanted to forward our large suitcase full of souvenirs to our next hotel. They had us fill out the form, which seemed odd as at the other hotels in Japan, the staff would handle that for us. After filling out the paper, we asked how much it would be, which the staff member answered not to worry about it. We were skeptical, but left anyway. Only to find out he had sent it for “cash on arrival”. So the suitcase was not at our next hotel when we arrived.

Great place to stay. Hotel is in a secluded spot with great views and facilities. Sitting down in the onsen bath overlooking the ocean after a hard day travelling. Could not think of anything better. Only small down side is that you need to drive to access restaurants, and convenience stores. Hotel has a restraunt but need to pre book so plan for this. Highly recommend this place to anyone. A bit of planning and last minute shopping for items before you arrive and you’re set at this place to have a really nice stay. Thanks to all the staff.

Very nice room but hotel lacks of atmosphere, quiet expensive for basic breakfast and dinner buffet provided Hotel can not be reached by bus, only by car, the beach which can be reached by foot is not very nice

nice Hotel and nice room , did really enjoy the bathtube on the balcony, very charming and relaxing

Spent an amazing night at LiVeMAX Resort with my girlfriend. The hotel is definitely far from the station, but they offer a shuttle at check-in (3pm) and check-out (11am). Beautiful room (we had the Premium twin). Beds are comfortable and pushed together to be like a King size. Everything is new/clean. Loved the private outdoor bath. Swimming pool and onsen facilities were great. The dinner/breakfast buffet was good. We also found the staff to be extremely friendly and helpful (even more genuine feeling than the usual good service you expect in Japan). Kisami Ohama Beach is about a 15 minute walk from the hotel. Some of the walk is on the side of a road, with no sidewalk, but cars come infrequently and it didn't feel unsafe. Kisami Ohama Beach is beautiful and we spent most of the first day there. On the day of our checkout, we were dropped off by the check-out shuttle at Irita Hama Beach (instead of getting off at the station), and loved that as well. Overall, extremely satisfied with our stay. If you are aiming for a relaxing, laid-back trip then the remote location shouldn't be a negative, and I think you'll have an amazing stay.

Nice Hotel with the good rate. Just the location a bit far away from the point f interest. Never thought about we could have a private Onsen session with looking at the starry sky inside our room. Worth it~

ここは下田で1番好きなホテルです。 全部屋に露天風呂があるし夕食も朝食も本当に美味しいです。 スタッフさんは外国人が多いですけどおもてなしは最高にしてくれます。 あんまり勧めたくない…だって満室になったら私が困るから😂😂😂 またぜひ泊まらせて下さいね🙌🙌🙌

相手が体調不良で、イマイチ快適ではなかったのでフルに楽しむ事が出来なかったけど食事も種類が沢山あり、サウナも次回は使用してみたいと思います。露天風呂付きで朝日🌅が見えてとても良い。連泊した方が場所も温泉質も良かったので又機会があれば行きたい場所で、やはり伊豆はこの辺が好みの場所で素敵です。

食事はビュッフェで品数も多く満足しました。 ただ客室露天風呂のビニールカーテンとカーテンレールが古く閉められない事が不満。 トイレと洗面台の位置がベッドにあまりに近かった事も残念です。

The property was globally good, but there is some effort to be made in term of cleanliness.

部屋の作りや間取りがとても良かったです。楽しく過ごせました。

満足

お部屋の露天風呂がとても気持ちよかったです

チェックインの時の対応が、外国人のスタッフだと思いますが、すごく親身で荷物もないのに部屋まで案内してくださいました。 温泉の泉質もよく、また部屋（ベランダ）にも24時間入れる温泉の浴槽があり、温泉好きの私には最高の宿でした。 また、こじんまりした宿ですので、のんびりくつろげました。

価格から考えると全体的に普通以下でした。 トップシーズンなので仕方ないのですが。

一部屋朝食付き二人で8000円。温泉もあって、値段からの期待に比べれば満足。でも、新コロナでお客が来ないと言っても、例えオフシーズンでも、泊まり客がいるなら庭やプールも綺麗にしようよ。窓からの景色が大無し。残念…

料金に見合ったサービスでした、一番よかったと感じたのは客室に洗い場とお風呂があったことです。客室にお風呂がついてるタイプでこの値段は安いと思います

夕食のメニューが沢山あって美味しかったです

建物の古さは、所々で感じます。ワンちゃん連れで行く方の出入口壊れていて女性だと開けれないレベル、改修してください、リブマックスの食事は、期待してませんが、下田の食事は、よかったです。夕飯も朝食も美味しかったです。女性用の風呂は、脱衣所の使い勝手が良くないようで、誰かがドライヤーを使っていると着替えが出来ない！と妻が言ってました。フロントの方実習生なのでしょうか。大きな目で見て対応よかったです。頑張ってください、総合的に見てよかったです。

部屋はロフトありテラスにお風呂ありでとても素敵でた。夕食は美味しかった、朝食は決して悪くは無いがもうひとつと言う印象。
