Hotel berhampiran Kameiwa, Ishigaki

The weather was not the best when we pulled up in our car but we saw that this hotel would be excellent for a longer stay in the warmer weather. It would be perfect for families. We could imagine how many fantastic memories could be made here. Our room was very spacious and had a beautiful sea view. It had a large bathroom with separate bath and toilet. We played ground golf which we had not heard of before. It was so much fun even for real golfers! We enjoyed the gift shop and purchased the obligatory SPAM bag and some biscuits. The evening buffet dinner was such a surprise . We had a beautiful window table which helped as it was fairly busy. The food was outstanding. The choice and quality and presentation was totally unexpected. We are still talking about it and will do so for a long time. Breakfast was equally as good. Sadly we only had one night here. I am not sure how good the more expensive hotels on the island are but we felt this one was a winner for us.

Great service, amenities, and location! There’s a tour desk that can help with planning tours and the hotel has everything you need to have a great relaxing stay. I appreciated the little things such as disposable toiletries, cell charger, pajamas, slippers, small store, restaurant / bar, etc… the spa and bath is also located indoor along with an outdoor pool. We rented a car which helped get around the island and location is convenient to drive to the port to take the ferry if needed. Thank you for a great stay!

Ein gutes, sauberes und schönes Hotel. Der Strand befindet sich etwas weiter entfernt, ebenso die City sowie der Flughafen. Das kann man entweder mit ÖPNV oder Fahrrädern, die das Hotel gratis verleiht, lösen. In der näheren Umgebung befinden sich Einkaufsmöglichkeiten und Restaurants.

お正月旅行でお世話になりました。 レンタカー手配をするのをすっかり忘れており、 高額だったので結局レンタカーなしの石垣島旅行となりました。 空港からバスに乗り 真栄里東で降りたら目の前がホテルです。 インターコンチの次のバス停です。 ホテルでレンタサイクル４時間無料なので とっても助かりました。 チェックアウトした日も借りられたのは ありがたかったです。 フサキビーチまでサイクリングしました(笑) お部屋は爽やかで広くて良かった。 築浅なのでキレイです。 朝ごはんは無料です。 品数が少ないながらも なかなか良かったです。 パンケーキとジャムが美味しかったな（´∀｀*） マエサトビーチへは 歩いて行けますが あまりキレイではなくて ちょっとガッカリしました。 徒歩圏内に飲食店が色々ありましたが お正月で営業してるのかしてないのか・・・(￣▽￣;) コストパフォーマンスは とても良かったです。 お世話になりました。

初めての利用でした。 部屋や、シャワールーム等、とても清潔に管理されていました。 広いリビング、和室で皆んなでサッカーの代表戦を観戦したり、夜はその日の観光やダイビングのことを話したり、ゲストハウスならではの体験が楽しかったです。 スタッフもすごく気さくな人ばかりでしたし、忘れ物をしたのですが、その対応も親切でした。 絶対にまた宿泊したいです。

景色が良く、サービスも至れり尽せり。 ロビーでのコーヒーのサービスや、大浴場での湯上がりアイスなど、主人も大満足。朝食、夕食の3つのレストランなど、とても美味しい。大きいホテルだが、エレベーターは2機あり、コインランドリーも十分。ポーターサービスはなく、ルームクリーニングはタオル交換のみにすると、1泊千円の館内利用券がいただけて、コスパも良い。車椅子の貸し出しを頼むと福祉協議会から、無料で借りておいてくださり、高齢の母の移動に助かりました。ビーチは遊泳できないが、ダイビングするので関係ない。きれいで過ごしやすく最高のホテルでした。

One disappointment after another. It doesn't have access to the beach, you can't get into the sea, the hotel people tell you as soon as you arrive. The staff leaves a lot to be desired, on more than one occasion, they didn't even answer my son's greeting when he saw them, and he asked why they didn't answer. There are no restaurants for lunch, no cafeteria. They only serve drinks. The breakfast service is very precarious and with little variety. I wanted to ask for cutlery to cut fruit and they denied me saying they didn't have any. (but of course there are cutlery for breakfast, you don't eat with your hands, right?) I had to tell them this so they would go looking for a spoon reluctantly, if they gave me just a spoon. They don't make the room or straighten the sheets, nothing, they give you a 500 yen coupon to spend at the hotel that has nothing to spend it on. They don't even wash the glasses in the room, they leave them as is. Not to mention that they do not change the towels for the pool if you want you have to pay extra for them. The pool is low and in summer the water is hot. I do not recommend it at all if you can go to another do not hesitate. I stay in the new part of the building and it is quite noisy. The footsteps of the people above are heard. I think the only great thing about the hotel is the photographer who took the photos for the website, excellent job. I was really sorry to have stayed here for so many days, it was quite annoying.

Great location. About two minutes walk to the port for island ferries. Most of the main shops and restaurants are also within a short walking distance. All rooms overlook the sea and have a terrace or balcony. The view is wonderful on a sunny day. Bedroom not huge but the balcony makes up for that. All the usual features are available including AC, kettle and hairdryer. Some areas seem slightly dated but it was excellent value at the time we booked (off season/ COVID) Reception is on the ground floor but the lift is external so you can come and go without passing reception. Possibly because of COVID, only a minimum cleaning service at the time we visited. Instead, we got two vouchers each day to collect a drink from reception. Enjoyed the beers more than a cleaning service! Staff at reception were very pleasant and helpful. There are also a few bikes which guests can borrow. Location is the clincher here but overall a really good stay.

離島バスターミナル横なので、路線バスでの移動を考えている人は便利です。雨が降っても最短距離で行けます。人気の居酒屋ひとしやさよこの店も歩いて行けます。 古くホテルは生理的に無理なので、一番新しい美崎館を指定しましたが、部屋がカビ？湿気？独特の匂い（南国では仕方ないのでしょうか？）が辛かったです。窓を開けると虫が入るかもしれないし。 朝食は郷土料理もありましたが、パンの質が悪かったです。 大浴場を楽しみにしていましたが、年季が入ったお風呂でした。なぜか洗い場や浴槽下に小石？異物があって痛かったです。お湯がぬるくて気持ちよくなかったです。入り口の鍵付きのロッカーにルームキーを入れて入りましたが、おばあさんはそのロッカーに自身のスリッパを入れて鍵をかけていました。あのロッカーは靴箱ですか？（脱衣場には鍵がかかるロッカーはありませんでした）説明が書いていないので、何が正しいのか分かりません。気分が悪かったです。自分の部屋のバスタブに好みの入浴剤を入れた方がよかったです。 とはいえ、立地条件は良いので是非、大浴場のある棟を立て直して綺麗にすれば、一段とホテルの格が上がるのになぁと感じました。

I don’t know where to begin with this. We’d been to Ishigaki Island before but wanted to try somewhere more isolated this trip so booked in a few days at Hoshinoya Taketomi. It was incredible. The pick up at the port is efficient and fast. The arrival and welcome is like a warm tropical hug. Aya who greeted us and checked us in was so delightful and explained absolutely everything we needed to know. She was a real star throughout our trip and a testament to Hoshinoya’s impeccable levels of service. You get driven around the site on golf buggies which I always enjoy - although I felt guilty making the team carry my heavy suitcases around (I stopped them when I could!) The rooms are individual Okinawa-style houses and they are what really makes Hoshinoya special. You get a home away from home that is exquisitely designed, modern yet traditional, private, and well-equipped. The bedroom has an incredibly large bed that makes it easy to sleep. The bathroom is huge and really makes you want to spend time in it. We did in-room dining a couple of times and it is definitely not room service. It is next level. As guests stay in proper homes it really feels special. The menu features mainly Okinawa Japanese favourites and they’re all great. We had the beef sukiyaki on the last night which was one of the best meals of my life. The pool is a really unique feature of the property. It’s huge! The photos we saw online don’t do it justice - it is so welcoming and fun to spend time in. The only thing I wish they has was a way to have drinks outside by the pool - which is currently difficult given the issue the island has with overly friendly crows (Hoshinoya is apparently getting a hawk to deter them though). The lobby where guests congregate is a real centre of the hotel. They run lots of guest activities here such as daily Okinawan music shows, awamori tastings, and more. You can also get complimentary coffee, juices etc here. It’s great. The gift shop in it is awesome, too. The property is located within walking distance of everything on the island - although they run all sorts of convenient shuttle services to and from the beaches and central village. I really didn’t want to check out of this place that really felt like heaven on earth. I’d love to get back there someday. Thank you to the whole team - especially Aya and Yuki!
