Yunessun Water Park in Hakone is one of the most bizarre water parks I’ve ever visited with areas ranging from a wine spa, coffee spa to a green tea spa and a Japanese sake spa. Apparently, it contains antioxidants to prevent premature aging and skin problems. Subscribe to my channel ► https://bit.ly/2aeuh9b for weekly videos!
I arrived around 5pm and noticed that most people already went home so I had the entire water park to myself. Starting at the famous wine spa, after seeing so many photos on the internet I had to try it for myself. It is basically a regular pool with diluted wine, special wine events do take place 3x times per day during which they hand out wine tasting samples and throw a bucket of red wine over you.
Besides wine you can also enjoy the coffee spa, sake (Japanese rice wine) spa and green tea spa. The jacuzzi area often has special themes ranging from ramen broth to a local green tea this time around. My favorite was the coffee spa but sadly I did not find any coffee cream nor milk.

The Yunessun water park is quite popular with people from the Tokyo and Kanagawa prefectures. The Japanese girls I ran into at the wine spa were from Yokohama and very kind. I also noticed that everyone was on their cell phones taking photos and selfies. It’s a true tourist attraction.
They even have a gigantic outdoor water park with slides, waterfalls and indoor caves. The slides are really soft, making for a smooth slide down since they curve quite a lot in all directions. The last area worth mentioning is Dr. Fish, which are tiny fish cleaning the dead skin of your feet.
In conclusion, Yunessun Water Park is a bucket list item NOT to be missed in the Hakone region. I would definitely combine it with staying at a Ryokan, the Pirate Boat and Owakudani Black Eggs at minimum. Hakone should be a 2-day visit for any tourist new to Japan.

Wow that is crazy!!! Only in japan 🇯🇵
Wish they had a wine spa in Toronto
That's so cool! Only in japan I guess haha
AWESOME!!!!
I’ll be In Japan in two weeks, as I travel the world riding rollercoasters! I saw this place in a buzzfeed video recently, thanks for sharing your experience! 😁
Hi Matt, one thing you forgot to mention is that Yunessun has a strict 'no tattoos' policy, even if you are a foreigner.
Me and my buddy stayed in the Hakone area in october 2015 and wanted to visit, but we both have tattoos so they wouldn't let us in.
Something for people to keep in mind if they plan a trip there. 👍
Swimming in wine-filled pool – as a genuine wine geek myself I was a little upset at how much of stuff is being wasted. Albeit that was a really nice trip!
Ain't no spa like a wine spa 😀
So confused by youtubers who get hundreds of views… what’s the point and where you get motivation for it??
I ❤ your videos come to india sometime 🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
And just when you think Japan couldn't get any crazier hahaha! Would be fun it there was also a coffee with mik bath 😁
Oh yes I finally found the one i went to when u went to japan
there is also a ramen bath
Would be kinda' funny if this was just all water with coloring and fragrance added to fool guests into thinking it was wine and coffee, lol.
37 USD is expensive to you..pshhhh I paid way more then that to get into the One Piece tower, never mind places like Disney. XD
You really made me laugh! 😄
Do you drink it not sure if I would want to but lol it's coffee
isnt that a waste of food?
Entrance is not cheap? 🤓
We pay around $10 for normal outdoor pool in Australia to swim under bloody sunshine
When your dream become reality
Maybe a Coca Cola spa would be nice?
