Principle of Full Renovation, Layout Changes Also Accommodated

Next, Mr. Ishizuka showed me a model room of approximately 92 square meters. This room also serves as a model. It has two toilets, which is surprisingly convenient. When care is needed, toilet assistance can be time-consuming. Therefore, having one toilet designated for care or for guests could be very practical. I was further surprised by Mr. Ishizuka’s comment:

“When a resident moves out, we generally perform a full renovation of the room. We remove all walls and water fixtures, strip it down to the skeleton, and then rebuild it. We also accommodate layout changes if requested, as an optional service.”

A full renovation must involve significant costs. Such efforts on the hard aspects are likely one of the reasons for the high initial payment.

 

Amenities Embodying a Sense of Superiority

The entire third floor is dedicated to recreational areas. The library, stocked with a variety of genres, regularly updates its collection with new books. There is also a beauty salon on the same floor, operated four days a week by beauty expert Hatsuko Endo, who is known for her work in luxury hotels. Beyond that, there is an atelier for crafts, where a nail art class was being held during the visit.

Walking down the hallway, a large globe, about the size of an adult with arms outstretched, is displayed. It is a non-commercial globe given only to frequent guests of luxury cruise ships such as the “Asuka” and “Nippon Maru.”

“There is a person who frequently travels on luxury cruise ships. They donated this globe, which they received as a souvenir.”

Some guests reportedly embarked on months-long cruises, returning only to set off on another voyage. It seems as if the luxury cruise ship experience is mirrored in the comfort of this senior home.
