Anda Resort is located little off of the National Highway 135, roughly 2.5 to 3 hour drive from Tokyo. You can also take a train to the nearby station, Izukogen, and walk for 10 minutes to the hotel. Izukogen is a well-known Japanese resort, filled with many resort hotels, but Anda Resort looks like no other. From the moment you go through the gate, all you see is the Indonesia-inspired architectures and statues. It is hard to believe that you are in Japan.

When you get to Anda Resort, you are most likely to be greeted by many frog statues. Indeed, on the island of Bali, frog statues covered with green and black moss are considered as a sign of fortune and luck, thus you will see frogs in many different sizes and positions welcoming your stay. In Japanese, frogs are called “kaeru”, which also means “to return”. Anda Resort wants to be a place where people can return anytime they feel tired and need a moment of peace.

Check out the view from the look-out!

At the top of Annex, where the Spa Cantic is located, there is a great look-out place where you can enjoy a panoramic view on Izukogen. You can see Omuro Mountain in the North and the Pacific Ocean in the South with Izu Oshima Island in the distance.

Anda Resort also has its own wedding chapel, so there are plenty of things to do for newlyweds, as well as families and friends to choose what they enjoy on their vacation.

Let me talk about an area of Anda Resort called “Kaeruya”, or The House of Frogs. Kaeruya is open to the public as well as those staying at Anda Resort. There, you can find cute frog items and goods imported from Indonesia. Kaeruya also has free foot bath (ashiyu), from 10:00 am to 5:00 pm This is also where you can enjoy dinner and even try making pottery!. If you are traveling with children, this would be a great place to keep children entertained while adults could get their relaxation at the spa and the hot spring.

Enjoy an Indonesia-inspired resort in a Japanese resort!

Anda Resort in Izukogen is quite different from your other travel destinations in Japan. Like how international travelers fancy Japan, Japanese people dream of going to a tropical island and by going to Anda Resort, you get to experience little Indonesia with Japanese high quality service.
