Safi Spa Maiko, located within the Seaside Hotel Maiko Villa Kobe in Kobe City, Hyogo Prefecture, is renowned for its comfortable sauna facilities and diverse cold baths. In this blog, we focus on the unique “cold-cold contrast bathing” experience offered at Safi Spa Maiko and introduce its distinctive features in detail.

The Appeal of Safi Spa Maiko’s Sauna and Cold-Cold Contrast Bathing

At Safi Spa Maiko, guests can enjoy high-temperature saunas combined with two types of cold baths to experience cold-cold contrast bathing. Cold-cold contrast bathing is a bathing method that involves alternating between multiple cold baths, in addition to the traditional warm-cold contrast bathing. By sequentially immersing oneself in cold baths of different temperatures, this practice provides varied stimuli to the body, promoting a refreshing and revitalizing effect.

Two Types of Cold Baths: “Cross Counter” and “Nagisa”

The cold baths at Safi Spa Maiko are designed with a depth of 1.37 meters, allowing full shoulder immersion. The first cold bath, “Cross Counter,” is always maintained below 10°C, providing an extremely cold environment with single temperature control. It features jets that spray from four directions and an overhead cold water shower activated by a button, delivering invigorating stimulation in addition to cooling.

The second cold bath, “Nagisa,” is set at a more moderate 16°C, offering a gentle, comfortable cooling experience. Alternating between these two cold baths allows for an effective cold-cold contrast bathing experience.

Ample relaxation spaces essential for completing the “totonoi” (refreshing) experience are also provided. Each of the multiple chairs is equipped with its own adjustable fan, allowing guests to control airflow to their preference. Five footbath seats are also available, each with a personal television monitor, creating a luxurious environment.

Furthermore, the “Totonoi Station” features reclining chairs where guests can enjoy their favorite beverages while watching stunning aurora and seasonal video projections on the ceiling, offering a uniquely immersive relaxation experience.
