"I want to enjoy a sauna date with my partner, but I don't know where to go..."

Are you struggling with such concerns?

In this article,Sauna facilities nationwide where men and women can enter together、Private room sauna

and introduce carefully selected ones. Furthermore,The charm of sauna dates and key points for choosing one

will also be thoroughly explained.

What is a private sauna that you can't afford to ask about now?

What is a private sauna (individual sauna / rental sauna)?

A private sauna (individual sauna, chartered sauna) is a place where you can enjoy a sauna in a completely private space that is not shared with other users. Since the sauna, cold plunge bath, and outdoor cooling bench are all provided within the private room, you can relax and spend time with just your partner or group without worrying about others.

Furthermore, a key feature is that you can enjoy yourself at your own pace because there's no waiting in line. You can spend your time as you like, such as doing self-löyly or listening to music.

Benefits of a Private Sauna

There are mainly two benefits to private saunas.

First, you can enjoy it without worrying about what other people think.

In a typical sauna, you need to be considerate of others. In a private room, however, it's your own space, allowing you to enjoy things you can't in a regular sauna, like relaxing in any pose you like or submerging yourself headfirst in the cold plunge pool.

Second, you can customize the space.

Another unique appeal of private rooms is the ability to customize the sauna room to your liking. You can create your ideal sauna space by freely changing the scents and music, or by performing self-löyly at your own pace.

How to choose a sauna for a successful date

Here, to help ensure your sauna date doesn't end in disappointment, we'll introduce how to choose a sauna for couples interested in them.

1. Are swimsuits required, or is being naked okay?

First, when choosing a sauna to enjoy as a couple, check whether swimsuits are required or if you can go nude. Many saunas for couples are co-ed and require swimsuits, so you'll need to bring your own.

When choosing swimwear, it's recommended to opt for comfortable materials without any metal parts. Also, some private saunas allow nudity, so be sure to check when making your reservation.

2. Sauna Room Temperature and Humidity

When enjoying the sauna as a couple, the indoor temperature and humidity are also important. The ideal sauna temperature is considered to be 90 degrees Celsius with 14% humidity, but since some private sauna facilities allow you to adjust these to your own preferences, be sure to check if they can be adjusted when you check the temperature.

Also, since preferences can differ between couples, it is recommended to discuss this in advance.

3. Adequacy of Facilities

The availability of facilities other than the sauna is also an important point for a comfortable sauna date. It's best to have at least a sauna room, cold plunge pool, and relaxation space. Additionally, having comfortable sofas or full-flat chairs will allow you to spend an even more enjoyable time.

Furthermore, many places have private saunas attached to other leisure facilities. It is recommended to discuss what kind of sauna date you want and decide on a location after aligning each other's preferences.

Totonoubai is a sauna surrounded by the warmth of trees and nature. It was born out of a desire to "create a power spot sauna at the feet of the Kannon of Kumamoto Earthquake Reconstruction" as part of the revitalization efforts in Kikuchi City, Kumamoto Prefecture.

The saunas at Totonoubai are made of cedar and cypress, allowing you to feel the warmth of the wood. Additionally, there's space to lie down, so you can relax at your leisure. The sauna stove is Finnish-style, heated by burning wood. You can adjust the temperature by adding and burning your own wood, allowing couples to enjoy it at their own pace.

The staff will explain how to use the sauna and how to add firewood, so even sauna beginners can feel at ease. Furthermore, if you turn off the lights in the sauna room, only the sound of the burning firewood and the flickering flames will remain, transforming it into a healing space. Please try it.

After the sauna, you can enter our unique outdoor rock-lined cold bath, a rarity across the country. The cold bath utilizes Aso's subterranean water, continuously flowing without recirculation, and its temperature can be enjoyed between 4°C and 20°C, depending on the outside temperature. After the cold bath, a wide variety of relaxation chairs await. Please choose your favorite and take a break feeling the breeze outdoors.

The Totono-u bathhouse is perfect for couples seeking a unique sauna experience, with features like wood-fired temperature control and a rock-filled cold plunge pool, setting it apart from typical saunas.
