Hotel Happy Holiday Ishigakijima

Strategically located excellent low cost hotel

Reviewed By sinnerpoetry

This hotel is very close to Ishigaki port, which makes it perfect as a "base camp" to explore the Yaeyama islands. Moreover, the value is huge for the little price that it costs: big and clean rooms, free laundry, helpful staff (they even made us do the check in before the allowed time since the room was ready) and, cherry on top, a good breakfast in the morning with perfectly cooked eggs and spam meat. Obviously if you are serching for luxury or a resort style stay this is not the place for you, but if you are looking for an unexpensive stay with all the basic amenities... look no further.

Lulaliya

Inviting place in the charming location

Reviewed By travelerscal

The first thing that stands out about Lulaliya is its proximity to Ishigaki’s famous Kabira Bay: it’s less than a five minutes’ walk from the landmark, and that alone makes it worthwhile to book. However, it offers so much more! I stayed three nights with a friend, and we found that it was a perfect place to kick up our heels while staying on Ishigaki. The rooms are cozy and well-furnished, and have everything you might want. On the first floor, there is a spacious café/eating area. Here, you can enjoy the house breakfast (for an extra fee), or even buy breakfast from another place (the nearby bakery, for instance) and bring it back. You can also use it in the evening as a lounge if you’d like to hang out, but don’t want to stay in your room. My friend and I ate birthday cake there! Hot water for tea/coffee and cold water for drinking are available around the clock. The proprietor, Aya, is very friendly, has excellent English, and can help you book any tours you may want. She booked us a wonderful all-day snorkeling/kayaking tour, and helped us shape our days on the island. She was a delight to talk to, and could help us hammer out our plans at the drop of a hat. She’ll introduce you to the nearby restaurants and their hours, which is good—every day, there’s at least one place that’s closed, so it’s good to be careful of. The hotel is also very close to the bus stop, which is another bonus: Ishigaki doesn’t have too many buses, but the Kabira Bay hub is one of the ones where more of them come and go from. We found Lulaliya a great base of operations, and I would stay again in a heartbeat.

星が綺麗に見れるとこちらにしましたが、天気が悪くて見れませんでした。 ビーチ2分ですが、泳げません。 見えません。 ちょっとガッカリしました

Pension New Hamanoso

It’s Ok

Reviewed By Edgar I

My son had booked 2 rooms in this place via AirBnb during our weekend stay in Ishigaki. The 3-floor place is in a good, quiet location and run by a husband and wife team. The rooms are clean, small and consisted of a traditional and a western style. We stayed in a western style room. Towels are changed daily. Street shoes are not allowed inside the building. One refrigerator per floor plus laundry facility on the 2nd floor. Microwave, water, tea, coffee available in the communal dining room. The rooms are small with a small tv. No closet, only a bar with clothes hanger. Our bathtub was not fixed permanently on the floor and wobbled a bit. A shower curtain was not available. Overall, it’s an ok place to stay.

Resort Life Kabira

Great ryokan, location far from city

Reviewed By Nilanjana M

Beautiful ryokan cottages run by an elderly gentleman, location is great if you are looking to stay in Kabira bay but far from downtown. The bus ride to & from town takes about an hour each way, its a beautiful ride though!

Relaxing Five Nights Stay In Ishigaki

Reviewed By Longmao

One of reasons I chose initially is 1. BBQ facilities (even free of charge usage here) 2. Quiet place 3. Family friendly. I did communicate with Alex several times prior to arrival. He was kind enough to answer in a timely and patient manner. Upon arrival, his wife welcomed us although we reached 8pm-ish. She truly extended a warm welcome and great chat. Every day, both owners met us and chat that made us feel their care. Even they prepared Malay curry, tuna sashimi that he caught and rice wrapped with fish cake (local delicacies) for us while our stay. Their kids and dog were very polite to greet us too. We enjoyed our stay in such homie environment and we look forward to our return in the near future.
