Ishigaki Hotels with Hot Tub

Thank you for your new year trip. I completely forgot to arrange a car rental, and it was expensive, so eventually I went to Ishigaki Island without a car rental. Take the bus from the airport and get off at maeiri Higashi, and it is a hotel in front of you. It is the next bus stop of interconchi. It was very helpful because it was free of charge for rental cycle ４ hours at the hotel. I was grateful to have been borrowed the day I checked out. I cycled to Fusaki Beach (laughs) The room was refreshing and spacious. It is clean because it is shallow. Breakfast is free. it was quite good though the number of items was small. Pancakes and jam were delicious (∀｀*) You can walk to Maesato Beach, but it's not very clean, and I was a little disappointed. There was a restaurant in walking distance 々, but it's open on New Year's Day. Is it or not? (￣▽￣;) The cost performance was very good. Thank you.

The hotel has a large area, many rooms, many activities and many restaurants. All rooms face the sea, the room is elegantly colored, clean and sanitary, a good choice for vacation and sea. In the email communication in advance, the hotel provided a lot of help, including booking a one-day tour charter, and everything was arranged in an orderly manner.

An extraordinary experience on a tropical island. I recommend this hotel for traveling with child. I stayed here for a couple of nights in August with my first grader. It takes 30 minutes from the airport by hotel bus. We stayed on the 3rd floor of the South Wing. The entire building is on the lower floors, so you feel as if you are living in a tropical village, full of extraordinary atmosphere. I got the impression that there were many guests with children. 　The rooms are spacious and new. The view of the ocean outside the wiindow is very nice. The bathrooms are clean. There are two washing machines on each floor, and laundry hangers are always available in the room, which is also very convenient. Amenities are simple but well stocked. The children's toothpaste was too bitter for my child. 　The pool is well stocked, including a pool for kids, and the kids seem to be having a lot of fun. There are several lifeguards on duty, which gives a sense of security. The beach in front of the hotel is amazing. It is deep enough for adults to almost reach their feet, but the water is clear and the small corals? It is clear, and the small corals are teeming with fish, so snorkeling is a lot of fun. Naturally, there is a lifeguard on duty, so it is safe. However, there are many coral fragments on the bottom and in the surf, so it is better to rent or bring marine shoes. After the pool and ocean, there is a large public bath. It is not that crowded. You can wash your body well in the solty. Breakfast is a buffet breakfast at Ryukyu Shintenchi on the first day and at ISHIGAKI BOLD KITCHEN on the second day. It is usually delicious, and the kids are satisfied with the fruits and desserts. For dinner, we reserved an izakaya in town for the first day and took a cab (about 1400 yen), but it was hard to get a reservation at an izakaya in Ishigaki Island during the high season after Corona. Cabs were also crowded, and it was hard to catch a cab, probably because it was far from the town. I was worried if I could really go back home, but somehow it turned out to be OK. We had a buffet dinner at ISHIGAKI BOLD KITCHEN in the hotel on the second day, and it was delicious. There was also an all-you-can-drink menu. Even if you stay for consecutive nights, you may not get bored with only the restaurants in the hotel. The South Wing is a distance away, so a cart is convenient to get you from your room to the front desk and restaurants. You may have to wait about 10 minutes for the cart to come, so it is better to allow plenty of time for the cart ride. The hotel staff is also very responsive. I am ashamed to say that I was careless and left without my card key and was unable to get into my room, but I called the front desk and they brought it right back to me. I called the front desk and they brought it to me right away. They responded with a smile even though it was a busy time of day. I really appreciated it. There are plenty of activities such as snorkel tours, starlight

The hotel has high-rise buildings with sea views and garden villas. I chose the latter because it is newly built. The price is slightly cheaper. There is a free shuttle bus from the airport to the hotel. Just make an appointment on the hotel's official website in advance. Surprise 1 when arriving at the hotel: If you stay for two consecutive nights and do not need cleaning, but only exchange towels and yukatas, you will receive a 1,000 yen hotel supermarket shopping voucher. Surprise 2: Welcome drink in the lobby ~ Free flow of Okinawa Orion beer😍 Surprise 3: The room is very spacious, about 30 square meters, equipped with a Nestle coffee machine and 4 freshly ground coffees; there are welcome drinks in the refrigerator, 4 bottles of mineral water, 2 cans of Okinawa tea, 2 cans of sparkling wine, and 2 cans of Orion beer, only on the first day, all free😱 Toiletries are available, and the girls' skin care products are DHC. The bathtub is deep and large. Of course, people who are used to hot springs can go to the big bath. The sauna is 86 degrees. The island is hot and humid, just right for dehumidification✌️ The garden is very beautiful, and the outdoor swimming pool is particularly beautiful at night👍 Surprise 4: The buffet breakfast is very delicious, and it is most suitable for people who want to try all the local Okinawan cuisine at once. The hotel has a car rental service. You only need to make an appointment by phone in advance, pick up the car in the hotel parking lot, and return it to the same place. It costs 8,500 yen a day. You don’t need to fill up the gasoline when returning. It is convenient and cheap👌 Thank you hotel, a great stay experience🙏

We arrived by car too late to get a car park at the hotel so we had to park about 100ms away down a side street. The room was fine. It had a good view and was very clean The breakfast was delicious and served in a nice room with a garden view. It was busy but the staff were excellent and the tables were turned over promptly. We loved the” save the planet” initiative and in fact were able to buy two tiny pieces of pottery with our coupons just for not having everything washed and changed. The pottery was from the excellent gift shop in the lobby which was actually the best I saw on my trip to Japan. There was also a small grocery shop in the lobby. It was a shortish walk to the ferry and main drag. There were eating options available across the road. We would recommend the dumpling place. They had take away coffee and doughnuts if you wished for breakfast. We would stay here again.

The weather was not the best when we pulled up in our car but we saw that this hotel would be excellent for a longer stay in the warmer weather. It would be perfect for families. We could imagine how many fantastic memories could be made here. Our room was very spacious and had a beautiful sea view. It had a large bathroom with separate bath and toilet. We played ground golf which we had not heard of before. It was so much fun even for real golfers! We enjoyed the gift shop and purchased the obligatory SPAM bag and some biscuits. The evening buffet dinner was such a surprise . We had a beautiful window table which helped as it was fairly busy. The food was outstanding. The choice and quality and presentation was totally unexpected. We are still talking about it and will do so for a long time. Breakfast was equally as good. Sadly we only had one night here. I am not sure how good the more expensive hotels on the island are but we felt this one was a winner for us.

Hotel is located on the south of the island which is about 20-30mins away from the airport. It is somewhat near to the port (where the ferry services to other islands are provided) but it still take about 10mins of walking. Not the nearest in terms of accessibility to bus stops/ports/convenience stores as well. Hotel has bikes that can be rented but you’ll need to have some application that the locals use, otherwise the nearest bicycle rental shop can be found on the way to the port. Hotel can also help to dial for taxis if needed. Room has a washing machine that works well and the drying machine is usually available for use. Loved the breakfast at this hotel - from local ishigaki style rice, yaeyama noodles, sorbet to sashimi I looked forward to eating breakfast everyday. Hotel is clean and also has a working electrical induction stove, fridge, freezer and microwave. Only gripe would be the location from the port and/or most of the other local attractions located at the north/central of the island. Generally I enjoyed my stay here and the hotel staff were helpful and kind.

The Vessel Hotel was very helpful from Sapporo Station. It was also very helpful in Ishigaki. It's close to the Ishigaki Remote Island Terminal, but it's about a 10-minute walk from the airport bus. It would be best if it wasn't raining, but be careful during the rainy season. It's a short distance and I feel bad taking a taxi. I gave it a 3 for location, but the facilities, service, and breakfast were perfect! Especially at breakfast, of course there was Okinawan cuisine! Even the tuna and sea grapes were delicious! Drinks! Genki was also all-you-can-drink! I would like to come back again.

It's a little far from the remote island terminal, the bus center, and the downtown area, but it's not too far to walk. It's a good distance away, so it's quiet and relaxing. It's also convenient that there's a convenience store right in front of it. There is a large public bath, and you can choose your shampoo and other items, and they also provide a welcome drink. I think it's good value for money.
