An Enchanting World Inspired by Ghibli on Awaji Island
The finely detailed, engrossing fantasy settings of magic realism define Ghibli's lavishly imagined universes. There is no shortage of whimsical innovation—talking animals, flying castles, and woodland spirits all captivate audiences and transport them to fantastical and imaginative worlds.
Awaji Island's Auberge "French Forest" offers a window into this kind of otherworldly experience. This luxurious hotel and restaurant complex is composed of three separate chalets, each providing a unique dining experience.
La Rose blends French and Italian flavors, Grand Baobab merges French and Basque cuisines, and Prince Etoile combines French and Italian influences.
Each chalet offers a distinct taste of culinary excellence amidst a setting reminiscent of a Ghibli-like fantasy village.
The restaurant itself has a posh yet cozy atmosphere that evokes the charm of Ghibli films. Surrounded by lush greenery, the restaurant's charming structures are nested within an enchanting garden, creating a scene straight out of a fairy tale.
Adding to the sense of fantasy and wonder is a horse-drawn carriage on the grounds, enhancing the magical ambiance of the Auberge "French Forest".
Unforgettable Gourmet Experience
Originally used to describe charming inns in a countryside in French, the term "auberge" has evolved to encompass the modern concept of "destination dining", where gastronomy is the main reason for travel.
Awaji Island, renowned as one of Japan's premier culinary destinations, offers the finest local ingredients for the innovative French cuisine at Auberge "French Forest". Guests can savor this exceptional culinary experience while also enjoying an overnight stay in the rooms.
Chef Ryotaro Murakami, a certified sommelier as well, who trained at a renowned three-star French restaurant, carefully selects wines to complement the outstanding dishes at La Rose.
Along the garden path, Prince Etoile showcases the abundance of Awaji Island's ingredients, focusing on the art of sauce-making. Meanwhile, Grand Baobab has earned acclaim for its inventive fusion of French and Italian cuisine.
You can relax in the luxury of your roomy second-floor suite after a delicious dinner. To enjoy the magnificent views of the undulating island hills, open the window!
Savoring this leisurely pace of life intertwined with an exceptional island scenery, the mundane world appears incredibly distant. Tonight, step out of reality and take center stage in a charming story that is chock-full of lovely, delectable surprises around every corner.
Our Peaceful Experience at Auberge "French Forest"
During our recent stay at Auberge, we had a fantastic opportunity to try the harmonious fusion of exquisite French cuisine and fine wines. The French restaurant on the first level treated us to a full-course dinner beautifully paired with wines, offering a spectacular culinary adventure.
We had the opportunity to choose from three types of full-course dinners, and the entire dining experience exceeded our expectations in every way.
After a delightful dinner, there's nothing quite like unwinding in the luxury of your own room. During our stay, the spacious room on the second level provided us with comfort and tranquility.
Opening the window, we were greeted by breathtaking views of the natural splendor surrounding us—a truly unique experience. Moreover, the room featured a fragrant cypress bath, offering a peaceful sanctuary where we could completely rejuvenate.
Auberge offers a wonderful opportunity to enjoy dining and staying in a cozy atmosphere amidst the beauty of nature, reminiscent of the world of Ghibli.
