This is my second stay in a year. I became friends with members of my generation who I met here, and even in Tokyo, we met many times under the name Koa-kai. This time, we all gathered again at Koa for the first time in a year as an anniversary party!I was soothed by the signboard dog, Il, who took me skin diving in the sea for the first time, took lots of photos, made new friends, and was very satisfied with my stay in Miyakojima.I hope to visit you again every year. Thank you very much Atsushi, Mayu and Pao!

Thank you for a lovely stay in Miyako-jima. The room we had was even nicer than expected in a hut that was clean and felt private.The staff are very friendly and kind. We are from England and do not speak much Japanese so there was a language barrier. This did not stop the staff from showing us kindness and being helpful. We even received a lift to the airport which was above and beyond.Renting snorkelling equipment is very easy and a good price. There is also a free washing machineWe loved the hand roasted coffee served in the morning and the kawaii dog too ❤️

We had an amazing stay at Koa! The entire staff was super friendly and helpful, and we had a great time with them. They definitely made our stay special. We booked two different snorkeling activities with them and we recommend doing so as they were great experiences.The cabin we stayed in was very comfortable and the guesthouse is very equipped. It’s close to the downtown area and some beaches, and all other beaches can be easily reached by car.Special thanks to Pao, Atsushi and Moe! Ciao!

I enjoyed my first trip to Miyakojima at this guesthouse. All the staff and guests were courteous and I felt like I was at home in a warm atmosphere. In terms of money, it's much cheaper than staying at a hotel, so I definitely recommend it.

Thank you for staying with us for 5 nights with a family of 4 including an elementary school student and a 3 year old! It was my first time on Miyakojima and my first long trip with children, but based on the reviews and some intuition, I decided to stay at this guesthouse, and as a result, I had an unforgettable time on my trip.☀︎ Every morning, I started my day with the coffee brewed by the owner, and it was truly wonderful and delicious, and this past week was a special period for that reason alone.☀︎I was so grateful that I could use the washing machine for free. Even the dryer costs over 700 yen at a hotel (sweat).☀︎ I'm glad I applied for snorkeling at Core. It's great to be able to wake up in the morning, put on my swimsuit, drive me there, and then come back and take a shower! Great photos and videos...☀︎ I could see environmentally friendly initiatives here and there, and it really resonated with me.The moment the children woke up, they went to the living room and talked to the staff and owner, enjoying life on Miyako Island without turning on the TV.Every day I hear languages ​​from different countries, and I think it was a great experience for my child to say hello in a low voice for the first time.Also, during the holiday, my child developed a fever and I was unable to go sightseeing, and when I was feeling disappointed, I was relieved by the words of the owner, who told me that maybe he was giving me some time to relax.The sunset I saw from my room was amazing, so that's exactly what I expected.We talked about everything from where to eat dinner today to where we wanted to go and how we should get around, and it was a rich trip that you wouldn't get at a hotel.When I arrived in Tokyo and was driving home, my husband and I searched for things like, ``We want to go there again,'' and are there any cheaper flights? lolThank you very much until the very end!My husband and I fell in love with the atmosphere of Miyakojima, so we will definitely go again! I will try to use this feeling as my daily motivation♪
