Regarding accommodation, I don't have high demand for accommodation, but if I want to rate it 5 stars, the hotel must be very amazing, so please don't mind me giving it 4 stars.The location is very good, next to Apollen Beach.The service was great and the staff went out of their way to accommodate my needs.The bed made by myself in the room is very comfortable. At this point, I am glad that I chose this room type. It is cheap and comfortable, and it also comes with breakfast. I am very satisfied with the service at this price. Of course, if there is something on the floor of the room, It would be better if the sand particles could be cleaned more thoroughly and the sound insulation could be more perfect. However, this does not affect my positive evaluation. After all, the price/performance ratio is very good. Asking for more seems a bit greedy.The conclusion is that if you just want a place to stay and don't need too many additional services, then this will be a good place for you to settle down. It is highly recommended. It is a good place to relax.

Comfortable hotel for this remote location. Has nesrby restaurant, rents diving equipment, washing machine and showers after the beach. You can leave you luggage for the day even when you need to check out early in the day and still staying on the island. Also organizes shuttle servive for the ferry port.

We were supposed to stay here for one night but due to a typhoon the ferries were canceled. They were super nice and allowed for a free cancelation to get our money back.If we ever come back will be here for sure.

Considering that it was a remote island, the room was reasonably clean, and since it was a pension, it had a bath and toilet, which was a good thing. It's also good that it's close to Aharen Beach, about a 2-minute walk away. Guests can rent beach umbrellas and underwater glasses at a discount. My family and I had two rooms, and before we stayed, I was worried about the cleanliness and quality of the island, but I think it wasn't bad. Breakfast was included and the mango juice was delicious.

It's very close to the beach. It's very convenient to play in the water. The room is old but clean. I just don't know where there are a lot of ants coming from. There is a vending machine downstairs that also sells some ice products. There is a restaurant opposite. The accommodation price is not as good as that one. It's affordable in the hegemonic area, but it's still acceptable in a place with limited resources. The restaurant opposite is affordable and the food is delicious.

I'm going to do some fun diving here,Perhaps because it took a long time to remove the ears on the first dive, the second dive was at a depth of less than 5 meters, and to be honest, it was just boring to watch the fish on the coral reef.Isn't it the same as trial diving at a depth of 5 meters or less?Why are you paying such a high price to make a reservation for fun diving?There were people in the group besides me, ranging from veterans to beginners, and I thought it was too bad even if it was a point after the dive check.I wanted it to be a point where you could feel more of Tokashiki Island,Snorkeling was much more fun than the second dive in shallow water.I don't remember almost anything about the first dive.I don't think I will ever book diving at this shop again.
