Shonandai

Step out of Shonandai Station and you're greeted by a typical suburban landscape of chain stores and supermarkets. By day, families and students fill the area; by night, it quiets down. Adult shops are tucked away in multi-tenant buildings and back alleys within walking distance of the station.

Shops are scattered around both the north and south exits. The north side has more restaurants, while the south side is more residential. The shops are discreet, with modest signage, so it's wise to research beforehand.

The adult scene here centers on delivery health and hotel health. Delivery health sends girls to nearby hotels, while hotel health operates in partnership with love hotels. Prices range from ¥15,000 to ¥20,000 for 60 minutes, slightly cheaper than central Tokyo. There are fewer than ten shops, so options are limited.

Shops are small, with a limited number of girls. Weekends fill up quickly, so weekday visits are recommended. Few shops cater to foreigners, so Japanese communication is the norm.

Access is via the Odakyu Line and Sotetsu Izumino Line, about 50 minutes from Shinjuku. There are a few chain love hotels near the station. Operating hours are generally from afternoon until late night.

Before visiting, call or email to confirm availability and pricing. Cash is standard; credit cards are rarely accepted. Don't expect English support.
