Nijo Onsen Kirara-no-Yu is a public hot-spring complex in western Itoshima, about an eight-minute walk from JR Chikuzen-Fukae Station. It combines large indoor and open-air baths, sauna, reservable family baths, a water-walking pool, food and local produce.
Prices changed on August 1, 2026. General adult bath admission is ¥890 on weekdays and ¥950 on weekends and holidays. The pool is for water walking rather than swimming, requires swimwear and is listed separately by the facility, so confirm combined-use conditions at reception.
- Open 10:00–21:00; last reception 20:30
- Closed on the third Tuesday
- Adult bath: weekday ¥890; weekend/holiday ¥950
- About 8 minutes on foot from JR Chikuzen-Fukae Station

Large baths, open-air baths and sauna
The men’s and women’s bath areas switch on a daily basis, so the exact layout you use depends on the date. Both sides offer the main hot-spring experience, with indoor and open-air bathing and sauna facilities described by the operator.
Wash thoroughly before entering communal baths, keep towels out of the water and never wear swimwear in the onsen bath area. Check the posted rules concerning tattoos, medical devices and small children at reception rather than assuming every Japanese bath has identical policies.
Walking pool and summer night pool
The health-flow pool is designed mainly for walking exercise, not lap swimming. Swimwear is required, and classes can restrict general use. The official pool section lists adult ¥890 and child ¥520, with separate Itoshima resident rates, but does not clearly state every same-day bath-and-pool combination or weekend pool condition.
A children’s night-pool program is scheduled on selected weekdays from July 22 through August 26, 2026, with excluded dates. Check the official notice for the exact date and daytime walking hours before travelling specifically for the pool.
Family baths, food and time needed
Private family baths start from ¥3,900 and reservation holders have priority. Ask about the room type, session length, total charge and whether bath admission is included when booking.
A restaurant and local-produce area make it easier to stay after bathing. Allow roughly 90 minutes for ordinary bathing and changing, or longer if adding food, a family bath or the pool.
Train, bus and car access
JR Chikuzen-Fukae Station is about eight minutes away on foot, which makes Kirara-no-Yu one of the easier Itoshima onsen choices without a car. The local Hatsufukae bus stops at Kirara-no-Yu, but check its limited timetable in both directions.
By car, the facility is about seven minutes from the Maebaru toll gate and has about 120 parking spaces. The general shuttle service is currently suspended, so do not rely on an old shuttle notice.
