"The staff really goes above and beyond to make the stay perfect! Heated pool. You can borrow floaties for free. So much amenities they lend out, most of it free! I was even able to borrow a telescope for free, to view the beautiful night sky! Only thing I can suggest is if their TV had Internet for YouTube or could screen cast. Would definitely come back!!"

10/10 Excellent
"It’s not glamping it’s a boutique hotel. Close to beach and good spot in the middle of ishigaki. Rooms were fantastic cabanas. Very comfortable. Nice sauna, pool was not heated which was the only drawback. we visited in winter. Dinner was huge and good value for bbq beef on a patio. Cheap beers and fireworks. Excellent free breakfast. Good romantic retreat not a family vibe. Isolated so you need a car!"
