라이브맥스 리조트 오쿠도고

This was our first onsen vacation and it exceeded all our expectations. Having a private in-room onsen was a priority and we couldn't have been more happy with Livemax resort okudogu. Our booking included daily breakfast and kaiseki dinner. The resort is about 30 min from matsuyama Airport and located in a remote area. Very peaceful but only 10-15 min by taxi to city center. The front desk, breakfast and dinner staff was incredibly friendly and helpful with all of our needs. They were patient, courteous and eager to help our questions or needs. The meals were exceptional especially the kaiseki dinner. We were blown away with their presentations and quality of the food. On our final night, they even surprised us with complimentary champagne bottles. Our room was spacious with modern bathrooms. But the highlight definitely has to be the private open air onsen on our balcony. Soaking in the onsen and watching snow fall was amazing. Note: The resort's communal onsen was closed for renovations. We did peek into the game room and Karaoke room but did not make use of them, they were nice rooms.
