More About Us
Zenbo Seinei is a special place offering a Zen retreat for body and soul, surrounded by the beautiful scenery of Awaji Island. Zenbo Seinei is an one-of-a-kind architecture designed by Shigeru Ban, the winner of “Pritzker Prize”, the world highest honor of architecture. Especially, the 100-meter-long wooden deck allows you to walk barefoot and feel the warmth and aroma of the wood.
Through “ZEN Retreat,” visitors can experience mindfulness through meditation and yoga to balance yourself in nature. “Zenbo Cuisine” meals are prepared without animal products, flour, oil, or white sugar. With seasonal local ingredients and traditional Japanese fermentation culture, you can enjoy our special healthy meals.
Environment
Zenbo Seinei offers an exquisite retreat space with minimalistic beauty and serenity, where every detail has been carefully designed. Emphasizing harmony with nature, we use HIDA furniture made of high quality Japanese wood. The furniture, which is imbued with the essence of Japanese forests, eliminates the boundary between Zenbo Seinei and nature, creating a space where one can truly rest and relax.
Review
I had a very nice Zen experience. The hotel is super nice and stylish, the meditation room on the upper floor is very well equipped (special meditation chairs, mats etc.) In the lower part there is a warm foot bath, which is designed like a pond in a Zen garden. Rooms are simple, but very nicely furnished. The Zen/meditation program was great with a very good teacher. Food was great, healthy and always looked like a work of art.

I need to start first with just expressing that this is the best customer service I have ever experienced in my life.

The food was the best meal I had since being in Japan for the past three months, the staff was unbelievably friendly and kind, the building was beautiful and the retreat was so restorative. I wish I could give more than 5-stars!
