The air-conditioned accommodation is 16 km from Yaeyama Museum. The accommodation features a shared kitchen and a shared lounge for guests. The accommodation was really nice. Everything was perfectly clean. The kitchen is fully equipped and has everything you need. The place felt like a second home. The highlight was definitely the super friendly owners who were happy to help with anything. It was by far the best accommodation we’ve had during our stay in Japan.

Set in Ishigaki Island, 1.7 km from Painuhama Artificial Beach, ゲストハウス喜舎場 has a shared lounge, private parking and rooms with free WiFi access. It is located 500 metres from Yaeyama Museum and provides a housekeeping service. The accommodation offers a shared kitchen and luggage storage space for guests. From arrival, Kishaba-san went out of his way to invite me to the local Kyuubon celebrations over the next few nights, and while there he introduced me to his family and a couple others. When I left to Naha and stayed at another hostel, I felt surprised by how much more comfortable and welcome I felt staying at Kishaba. Amenities are suitable, location is great, facilities are wonderful. The bed is comfortable, spacious, and private. Above all though, staying here made my trip to Ishigaki that much more memorable.

Set in Ishigaki Island, near Yaeyama Museum, Euglena Mall and Nantominzoku Museum, Guest House Ishigaki has a shared lounge. Complimentary WiFi is offered throughout the property and private parking is available on site. The property offers free use of bicycles and features a garden and sun terrace. This guest house and its hosts, Andy and Haruko, are exceptional! Guys, you are so great! The house is incredibly comfortable, the natural materials in the house - wooden floors, beautiful wooden staircase, reed-mats (tatami-floors), cute little plants everywhere, linen-cotton mix sheets, and the whole set up of the main room/kitchen and rooms and bathrooms - all done with so much attention and love and care that you feel as a guest there very comfortable and welcome. The mattresses were comfortable - we slept good on them. The kitchen was greatly equipped with everything you need. The hosts kept a freshly cold brewed jasmine tea in the fridge - it was so good! We used the washing machine and the dryer or dried our laundry outside. I loved the hanging hammock chair on the terrace, was really fun. Also, we found that the other guests themselves were very cool and interesting. We made friends with many guests during our stay. There is a great farmers market a few walking minutes away as well as two Family Marts just around the corner and other shops and restaurants. The Ferry Terminal (from where we took the bus to the airport) is only 10-15 min walk. We felt safe and well taken care of in this guest house. To summarize, we had a really great time there. Thank you, Andy and Haruko! 😊

Extra fuzzy blankets free to use if you got cold in the night. Check out the stars at night! Also, FREE bike rental. What more could you want? Definitely check out the Co-op store down the street; delicious fresh food after 11am try the taco rice!!! We really loved Iriomote it was so peaceful and special. Our favorite island.
