The resort promises a luxurious Japanese hot spring experience in the mythic beauty of Awaji Island
AWAJI, JAPAN, July 7, 2025 --
Pasona HR HUB, Inc. has announced the opening of "Senshin Waho", a new Japanese wellness facility and hot spring resort on Awaji Island (Hyogo Prefecture, Japan), on Thursday, July 17, 2025. Located in a region rich in natural beauty and steeped in ancient Japanese mythology, the facility promises to provide a luxurious stay with a natural hot spring, Japanese cuisine made with seasonal local ingredients, and an environment designed to promote wellness, healing, and balance between the mind and body.
The facility's name indicates physical and mental wellbeing - "Senshin" is composed of the Japanese kanji characters for "washing" and "mind/spirit", while "Waho" (literally: "Japanese way") means "traditional Japanese medicine", referrring to millennia of Japanese wisdom, tradition, and skill.
The resort's large communal "onsen" bath, Senshin no Yu, is a natural flowing hot spring drawn directly from the ground, offering a soothing experience fostering physical and mental health and well-being. The original menu at Senshin Waho includes delicate Japanese dishes using seasonal local ingredients of Awaji Island, and utilizing fermentation, charbroiling, and smoking techniques.
At the entrance of the resort, guests are welcomed by a serene Japanese garden crafted by master artisans who incorporate techniques found in traditional shrine and temple architecture. The garden captures the beauty of Japan’s changing seasons, offering a peaceful and immersive environment.
Senshin Waho is designed as a retreat which merges the past and present, inviting guests to enjoy a moment of stillness and sensory enrichment. Pasona HR HUB aims to use this facility as a starting point to develop wellness retreats which promote holistic recovery of the mind and body.
