Wanicome Wani-no-Yu

The easiest all-round day-bath choice for a first visit to Owani, especially without a car or with children. It combines public baths, sauna, dining, rest space and bookable family baths; the public bath and family rooms do not share identical water details.

Water handling
Current text pages do not provide pool-by-pool water-addition, heating, circulation or disinfection details. The prefectural tourism page explicitly says water may be added to the family baths, so the entire facility is not described as undiluted.

The facility has outdoor baths, a high-temperature sauna, dining, a shop and rest areas. Family-room reservation is by phone on the day.
