Brian and I stayed overnight, as we generally do to avoid the long drive home. Our usual favourite place was fully booked, so I branched out and found us another place not too far from the beach. The Katsumata minshuku proved to be just about perfect.
In peak season, they do not offer meals or any other amenities, like towels or toothbrushes (rare in Japan - most places have this). However, they have a lovely yard with a BBQ area, a rooftop that one can sit on, and a 24-hour convenience store not even a 30-second walk away.
The owners were very friendly, the rooms small but clean, and with the A/C on and the windows closed, it made for a great night's sleep.
We had intended to spend a few more hours at the beach on Sunday, but unfortunately, the weather didn't hold and we ended up driving back to Susono in the blinding rain!

It sounds a little bit like you are having the same kind of summer we are having here: No more than 36 hours without rain. It has been very trying for sun lovers like me. Still it sounds like you made the best of a brief respite from work.
How high was the roof of the hotel? You said that you could lounge around on it I was wondering what the view was like.
