🗺️ Hawaii Hot Springs Resort

Located in Iwaki City, Fukushima Prefecture, the Hawaiian Hot Spring Resort is a comprehensive hot spring entertainment facility where families and couples can enjoy themselves to the fullest. Centered around six themed areas that utilize the Iwaki Yumoto hot spring water, it features various attractions including a dance performance stage, as well as restaurants and hotels all gathered in one place. Most of the facilities are indoor hot springs, so regardless of the season or weather, the resort is filled with a leisurely atmosphere reminiscent of a tropical beach. The main water park is housed within a massive all-weather dome, which not only includes large swimming pools, lazy rivers, and water slides, but also features a beach theater that hosts dance performances, as well as the Fusang Museum where visitors can learn about Hawaiian history and culture. No matter how tired you get from playing, the performances held twice daily, featuring the Hibiscus Flower Girls, are not to be missed. The smooth hula dances and energetic Tahitian dances, performed by dancers in stunning costumes, will make you forget that you are actually in Fukushima.

Originally established in 1966 as the Tokiwa Hawaii Center, it gained attention for the hula performances by local women. The 2006 film "Hibiscus Girl" depicts the efforts of people striving to revitalize the gradually declining coal mining town, making it an inspiring work. During the evening shows, you can enjoy the Tahitian dances featured in the movie "Hibiscus Girl." The park is divided into six themed areas: Water Park, Hot Spring Park, Edo Romance Town, Big Hawaii, Pareo Spa Garden, and ViR Port. The accommodation facilities are also quite comprehensive, with a total of three hotels.
