This was my first time using this hotel after choosing it on a tour from a travel agency.You can see the sea from the pool and guest rooms (depending on the room), the sea is close (a few minutes walk), free rental of marine goods (snorkels, marine shoes, life jackets, floats, beach towels, etc.), the dinner course menu is the best, pizza The takeout dishes such as Nasi Goreng and Nasi Goreng were also very delicious.There was space available and I was able to get into the room before check-in time.The store and entrance are clean and stylish.I stayed at the main building. When I entered the room, it was a hot summer day, but the air conditioner was set at 27 degrees Celsius, so it wasn't cold at all.Furthermore, the air conditioner had a very musty smell and was very painful. It seems that the air conditioner itself has not been cleaned. No matter what I did with the air conditioner or dehumidifier, I could barely sleep for two nights because of the musty smell.There was a gap in the entrance door, and bugs probably got in through there.When I returned to the room, there were a lot of bugs on the futon, so I used the insect repellent spray I had brought with me.There was a gap in the emergency stairway door in the hallway (I noticed it later and closed it, but it didn't close completely), and a lot of insects were gathering in the hallway and in the lighted areas of the room.The room itself was very old (furniture too) and looked quite different from the image shown in the travel agency's photos. The room was damp and the carpet was sticky, making me uncomfortable during my stay.There were two people in the room, and there were no tables or chairs to eat in the room, which was very inconvenient, so we had no choice but to eat our take-out food at the dining table near the entrance store on the first floor.Please note that you can only eat dinner at the restaurant if you have made a reservation.There are no restaurants nearby.The unit bath in the room is quite old and inconveniently made so that when you wash your face, your head hits the cup shelf, making it difficult to wash your face properly.The paper holder in the toilet is also placed at a strangely high place, which is inconvenient in many ways. It was painful.It was a very disappointing stay with both good and bad points.I'll give it a total of 2 stars because the food and the view from the pool were amazing.

The building is old, but the interior is very spacious, stylish, and clean. They say there are a limited number of them, but they will lend you life jackets, etc., which will save you a lot of luggage. It's cheap and has a pool, so it feels like a resort hotel, so it's good for families. The hotel staff treated us courteously.

A resort hotel about 30 minutes from Amami Airport!There are many white sand beaches scattered around the airport, and when you go into the sea, you can see tropical fish while snorkeling even though you are close to the sand!This is the perfect place to use as a base to fully enjoy the sea of ​​Amami!After soaking in the seawater, you can refresh your mood in the large pool.The building feels old, but the interior has been beautifully renovated.The breakfast buffet was as satisfying as any hotel in Amami city, with a wide variety of choices!

It was a hotel with a sense of history, unlike the photos on the tour. The staff was friendly and the morning buffet was delicious. The bathroom in the room is a little disappointing.

I stayed in a two-story room with five beds. There was a bath and toilet, a TV, a sofa, and a refrigerator. There is also a pool about 20m square. There is a beach just a few minutes walk away where you can enjoy swimming.

It's close to the airport. It's a long way from the center of Amami (around the port), so I think it's a good choice for people who want to relax in the hotel or play at the sea (marine sports). For those who want to eat around Amami, living near the port might be a good option. It's about a 40 minute drive to the port town, so if you have a rental car, you won't have any problems.The morning buffet is extensive, but if you are staying for 3 nights or more, the menu will loop.I think the room I stayed in was good except for the water in the bath (there was a leak from the faucet).
