Resort Hotel Moana Coast
リゾートホテル モアナコースト
Does Resort Hotel Moana Coast allow tattoos? In a private bath
Sixteen maisonettes on a hillside, each with its own jet tub on the roof or in the courtyard and its own sauna beside it.
Nothing to negotiate here, because there is no shared bath to negotiate over. All sixteen maisonette rooms have their own open-air or half-open-air jet tub and their own sauna, and the hotel runs no public bath at all. A tattooed guest bathes in the room and never meets a rule. The eight Villa rooms add a cold plunge to the sauna.

What happens when you arrive
Skip the shared baths and reserve the private one the way this page describes. Once the door is closed, the bath is yours.
How we know
Confirmed from official site — bath structure, not a tattoo policy (the 客室 page; the operator publishes no tattoo rule anywhere)

Best for: Two people who want a rooftop tub and a private sauna and no conversation about skin
Two buildings on a 3,000-tsubo site. The Moana wing holds eight Ocean Rooms with a rooftop open-air jet tub over the Inland Sea; the Villa wing holds eight Retreat Rooms, reopened February 2024, each with a half-open-air jet tub facing a courtyard, a private sauna and a cold tub. The house calls the tubs 露天風呂(ジェットバス), publishes no spring analysis and makes no hot spring claim, so treat the water as heated, not thermal. The kitchen is Italian, and dinner is the reason most people book.
