If you drive north for about 20 minutes from the airport, you will see a sign.There is a small pool for adults (no shallow part), a sauna, and there seem to be 6 individual villas and some hotel rooms.The room also has a hammock in the small garden, so if the weather is nice, you can relax while looking at the night sky.The stars are very beautiful, and if you watch your step and go to a dark place, you can see a starry sky.The bath and toilet are separate, and there is a stylish bathtub.For meals, you can enjoy Ishigaki beef at BBQ.All-you-can-drink alcohol is cheap at 1,500 yen.The one-plate breakfast is perfect for the morning, but the earliest time is 7:30, so if you eat from 6:00 pm, there will be a bit of a wait.All the staff are kind and work efficiently.Insects such as ants will inevitably appear in the room, so you should keep food out of the room or put it in the refrigerator as much as possible.Overall it's a good hotel, but I don't think it's suitable for children.Glamping for adults.

First of all, the atmosphere was so nice.A villa with a red tile roof stands on a vast site.There are cute seashells that were found in the sea in front of you♡The sea was very calm and at night there were fireflies and we could see the Milky Way.The staff members were all wonderful, working efficiently and maintaining a friendly distance from each other.The food was even more delicious than I expected!The room is spacious and cute. There were plenty of pots, tableware, and amenities, and I was surprised that there was nothing missing, including an outlet and an extension cord by the bedside.I think this price is very reasonable.It was a wonderful place where people from overseas were there and everyone was smiling and spending time there.thank you very much! !

Mega great restaurant, excellent ingredients that you can prepare yourself on the grill. When it comes to drinks, it's worth taking all you can drink. Very nice and friendly staff.

The rooms are decorated in an Asian style and are quite spacious, giving you a tropical feel. There was a large pool in front of the room with a very nice view.It is a little far from the city and is small, but the number of guests is limited, so you can spend a relaxing and quiet time.Also, there is a private beach right in front of you, so you can walk to the sea.I think the staff are kind and helpful, and it is a hotel full of hospitality.

I have been using this service every year for the past 3 years when traveling to Ishigaki Island.The villa has a Bali-like atmosphere.The space is spacious and comfortable.I really like the BBQ dinner because I can enjoy the deliciousness of Ishigaki beef and island vegetables and a leisurely dinner.*All of the original sauces here are addictive.Located in the northern part of Ishigaki Island, this is a highly recommended accommodation as you can experience a private space with fewer people that you won't find in large accommodations.☆☆☆☆☆Lost itemsThank you so much 🙇‍♀️Thank you for your hospitality ✨
