On April 20, 2021, Amami Innovation Co., Ltd. will open "2 Waters," a newly constructed complex featuring a restaurant and pool, offering spectacular views of Akakina Bay, Amami's most beautiful ocean.
"2 Waters" is located adjacent to the accommodation facility "The Beachfront MIJORA," and includes a restaurant and bar, a pentagonal infinity pool, an outdoor theater, and a reception area. The restaurant and bar features expansive windows overlooking the ocean, allowing guests to savor creative cuisine featuring vibrant Amami ingredients while listening to the sound of the waves. Tucked away in a quiet cove, guests can enjoy a relaxing and enriching time "interacting with the island's nature" while gazing at the ever-changing ocean views.

Between the small, overflowing body of water and the great mother water. Sharpen your five senses and return deep to yourself.
＜ The Appeal of "2 Waters" ＞
2 Waters: A fully overflowing pentagonal infinity pool
1. Experience "comfortable, rich relaxation" in a space tucked away in a quiet cove
"2 Waters" is located along the coast in Mitoriya, Kasari town, in the northern part of the island. Guests can spend a fulfilling time surrounded by the island's nature, with an architectural space characterized by expansive windows looking out onto the sea, a restaurant specializing in nutritious ingredients grown in Amami, and a pentagonal infinity pool where guests can enjoy the tropical plants and changing sky.
2. A restaurant and bar that specializes in local ingredients from Kasari Town, Amami
"2 waters" serves original, creative dishes and drinks made with ingredients from Amami, mainly from Kasari Town. Through dishes that make the most of the "umami" of the ingredients, we hope to bring out new possibilities for Amami cuisine.
3. A fully overflowing pentagonal infinity pool (only available to guests staying at Denpaku)
At the back of the restaurant and bar is a pentagonal infinity pool, with overflows on all sides. You can enjoy the open feeling of swimming in the ocean stretching out before your eyes.
＜ About the Cuisine at the Restaurant & Bar ＞
Enjoy creative cuisine made with fresh Amami ingredients paired with wine and cocktails.
Led by Chef Ichinose Kei, formerly a chef and sommelier at a natural wine bistro, the restaurant provides food and service to create a new Amami atmosphere, and the local staff welcome tourists and local residents with the warmth of the Amami spirit.
Using Japanese and Western cuisine techniques, we offer a menu featuring abundant ingredients caught that day in season, such as "Poached Fish" made with seasonal fish caught at Kasari Fishing Port and "Oven-Roasted Island Pork Shoulder Loin," made with rare, rare Shima Kurobuta pork.
Dinner courses change with the seasons.
We will begin serving breakfast and dinner. For dinner, we offer creative dishes made with fresh ingredients paired with wine and cocktails at our counter seats, in a prime location overlooking the ocean. For breakfast, we will offer a healthy breakfast centered around vegetables and fruit to overnight guests. We plan to offer lunch in the future.

"The Beachfront MIJORA" and "2 waters," which offer stays that are close to the nature of Amami, operate with consideration for the natural environment and seek to achieve a sustainable way of life in Amami.
1. Initiatives at each facility - Utilizing food waste and promoting non-plastic use, etc.
"The Beachfront MIJORA" is working to reduce its environmental impact by switching to free drinks made from paper cartons and reducing the frequency of changing guest rooms' sheets.
Furthermore, "2 waters" encourages the use of non-plastic materials for all tableware, equipment, and other fixtures. With the large amount of plastic flowing into the ocean becoming a global issue, we aim to operate facilities that are close to the ocean and will work to reduce plastic consumption by using non-plastic fixtures and daily necessities in our accommodations.
2. Akakina Bay Beach Clean-up Initiative
To address the issue of marine debris, we are committed to conducting beach and underwater clean-up activities before all Denpaku and 2 waters.
About The Beachfront MIJORA>
The Beachfront MIJORA, a resort villa that opened in July 2019, is Denpaku's third brand, following Denpaku Amami Old House and Denpaku Amami Hotel. This brand offers the intersection of architecture and nature. We aim to be a lodging facility that offers an experience that allows you to forget the hustle and bustle of everyday life and relax your mind through the natural surroundings, such as the ocean that spreads out beyond the wall of glass and the tropical plants such as Pandanus. We will also pursue management methods that are friendly to the island's nature.

About Amami Innovation Co., Ltd.>
Starting with "Denpaku Old House," which was launched on Amami Oshima in 2016, utilizing a vacant house, the company has since expanded to "Denpaku Amami Hotel" and "Denpaku Hotel," which have been renovated from buildings that were formerly gathering places for town residents and have been turned into supermarkets and karaoke booths. We operate four types of accommodations: "Friendly," "Denpaku The Beachfront MIJORA," themed around Amami's nature, Zen, and traditional architecture. Centered around the "Denpaku" accommodations and the "Magun Square" community center, we are proposing new ways to utilize vacant properties in the area, providing a place for interaction between tourists and locals, and piloting new urban development in the Amami Islands.
