Due to a mistake in the reservation, I suddenly had to stay for just one night.The location is very close to Nagomi Tower and shops are within walking distance. You can rent a bicycle at the inn (1800 yen for 24 hours). The bike was new and the ride was comfortable.The room was compact but clean, and as expected, there were some insects. Drinks in the refrigerator were paid for later and included beer, water, and Sanpin tea. You could use the washing machine for 200 yen and the dryer for 100 yen. There were other people using the service, so I had to wait a while.Breakfast (bread, salad, fried egg, sausage, soup, fruit, yogurt) was included. If you request, we will also provide transportation to and from the ferry terminal. For this price, it was an adequate stay.

Although it is called a guest house, your privacy is protected.There are two rooms in each building, so you could hear noises and snoring from the rooms next door.It might be a good idea to have an extension cord as there weren't many outlets.It was difficult to receive Docomo's 4G and 5G in the room.The Wi-Fi password is posted in front of the community room, not in your room.Coke and water are available in the refrigerator, and you must declare it at checkout.Orion beer is sold for 300 yen in the community room.When I tried to fill the bathtub with hot water, there was no stopper, but I don't know if it just happens to be in that room or if it's only in the shower.Immediately after checking in, I found about 20 small ants on the tatami mat, and we exterminated them with the insecticide provided.It didn't come out after that, so maybe the person checking out that day had spilled the food.No cockroaches, spiders, or geckos appeared.The evening hours of the nearby restaurants are very short, so it's best to make a reservation.

Stayed in early July.A very hot day at the end of the rainy seasonI think it is the center of Taketomi Island. Observatory, diagonally opposite!(Since it was my first time on Taketomi Island, it was easy to navigate as it was near the landmark of the observatory)As soon as we arrived, the landlady arranged for us to rent a bicycle and was a kind mother.(It seems that there are some bicycles at the inn, but when I visited, all of them were unused.)I forgot the name of the room, butJapanese room, futonThere is a refrigerator for single people that has separate freezer and refrigeration compartments, which was great because I was able to freeze drinks in plastic bottles.We will pick you up from the port, but this may not be possible depending on the time and location.A phone call is required after confirming the reservation site.(If you are not used to futons, I think a bed is better because it is a rice cracker futon.)Apparently you can also pay by card.It is best to pay in cash.

Although it is called a guest house, it is a private room and does not give the impression of a guest house with bunk beds. Instead, it is a locked room with an electromagnetic stove, mini-kitchen, refrigerator (no freezer), and unit bath, so you can relax comfortably and with peace of mind.I can't find it on Rakuten, so I search on Jalan and it comes up, but Jalan's search returns about 300 candidates for Okinawa and remote islands, so I have a hard time finding it.This is my third time staying here, and I previously had a 2-bedroom room, but this time I chose a slightly cheaper Japanese-style room without a bed. After all, getting up from the bedroom is easier.Hoshino Yaya Peace Island is too expensive for me if I'm alone, and I wouldn't feel comfortable in a guesthouse, so this is the perfect accommodation for me.The only drawback is that the wifi doesn't come into the room.

I stayed for one night on a normal day in October. The rooms are cottage-style private rooms equipped with a bath, toilet, kitchenette, refrigerator, microwave, air conditioning (free of charge), and a TV, and are well-maintained.Occasionally, it seems like 🪳 and hawk spiders (really big!) appear, but I don't think there's anything you can do to prevent them in a one-story house with a subtropical oceanic climate and an old building.There is almost no contact with other guests, so this is a recommended inn for those who want to spend their time on the island quietly and slowly.(I don't think the troublesome event called "Yuntaku" will occur because dinner is not provided...)There are few restaurants on Taketomi Island that serve food and drinks after the evening, and they quickly become fully booked, and the few shops that do exist close around 1800.If you don't pay attention to this point, you will become a dinner refugee.

This guest house is characterized by excellent service and warm hospitality. The staff are very helpful and always try to meet the needs of their guests. Whenever I felt I needed something, they were always available.The rooms are very clean and have everything you need for daily life. Its location is also attractive, with easy access to tourist attractions and restaurants.However, what impressed me most was the warm atmosphere and the heartfelt hospitality of the staff. Here you will feel like you are at home. I would definitely like to visit again next time!However, perhaps because the walls were thin, I could hear the children running next door and screaming, so if you are sensitive, I recommend staying at this hotel.
