We stayed here for a family trip, and thanks to the great weather, we had a very comfortable stay. The views of Wakasa Fuji and Wakasa Bay were wonderful, and the Italian meals were delicious—we were very satisfied. It was also nice to be able to enjoy breakfast on the open terrace. Although there was a small issue, the staff responded quickly, which actually made it an even more memorable trip.

The entire property, inside and out, was very well cleaned. The Room was spotless. We were told the bed mattress had been upgraded, and it was extremely comfortable—I slept great. The Room also has high ceilings, and the air conditioning was very comfortable. The amenities were so plentiful we couldn’t use them all. The towels were great quality too. The small shelf next to the sink was especially helpful. Since we did laundry, having plenty of towels was perfect. There’s also a dryer—nothing to complain about. For cooking for yourself, everything you could need is provided! There were even items you don’t usually find at other Accommodations, so it felt like being at home. Thoughtful touches stood out as well, like a magnetic towel hanger. I’ve stayed in dozens of whole-house rentals, and the attention to detail in what’s provided here is outstanding. The outdoor pool was amazing too. Bugs didn’t bother us at all—in fact, it made us wonder if there are really this few bugs on Miyakojima. The location is excellent: close to downtown and also very convenient for Irabu Island, which we love. If I had to make a request: the body soap felt quite slippery and didn’t rinse off well, so it didn’t feel like I’d properly washed; and considering taking dishes poolside, it would be reassuring to have some unbreakable tableware as well. A full-length mirror would also be appreciated. Among the places I’ve stayed in Okinawa, this ranks right up there as one of the most comfortable (top one or two). We will definitely stay again!

We stayed for one night. We had requested barbecue equipment, but unfortunately the weather was rainy, and they responded very politely to our inquiries about whether to cancel. The Facility faces the sea, the garden has the word “AWAJI,” and everything—including the Room—was clean and comfortable. It was a shame we couldn’t enjoy a barbecue in the garden or admire the blue ocean due to the weather, but we would definitely like to come again. Thank you very much.

We stayed for 4 nights with a group of four. Because the weather was unstable, we couldn’t enjoy the starry sky we had been looking forward to, but our privacy was well maintained and we were able to relax. If you’re expecting a beautiful ocean right in front of you, you may be a little disappointed. Of course, we understood that before visiting. Access was good, so getting around was stress-free. What we liked - The kitchen was spacious and easy to use. - The refrigerator was large, so we could buy plenty of groceries. What concerned us - The provided insect repellent spray was empty. - There were many handprints on the window glass. - For four people staying four nights, it was difficult to secure enough drinking water, so having a water dispenser would be appreciated. - We weren’t expecting excessive service, but we do feel that what’s provided should match the price. - The pool chlorine level seemed too strong and made our nose and throat very sore. This property seems to be in one of the higher price ranges on Miyakojima. We hope for improvements in service that better match the price. We would consider staying again if given the opportunity.

They said it was very comfortable, and the Onsen was relaxing.

We enjoyed so many delicious dishes. The large fish collar was something I had never seen before, and the sashimi boat platter was gorgeous. Everything was tasty, but we couldn’t finish it all, and I felt sorry about that. If I could do it over, I would skip the hot pot and switch to nigiri sushi. We went with our two teenage sons with big appetites, so we thought we could manage it, but we still gave up… The baths were always available whenever we wanted to go, so we could bathe smoothly in the evening, at night, and in the morning. This is an Accommodation I would recommend. Thank you very much.

I was satisfied with both the meals and the Onsen. I visited by motorcycle, and being able to park in the garage made me feel very secure. I would like to stay again.

This was my first visit, and the food was delicious. I also appreciated being able to take home the crab I couldn’t finish. The Onsen water felt wonderfully smooth, and we were very satisfied to have it reserved for our family’s private use. The location was also great—right by the sea, with a beautiful sunset—and it made me want to visit even in a season other than crab season. I’d love to come back again next year.

I chose to stay here because the exterior and interior photos were so striking, and I was also drawn to the fact that it is operated by a public interest incorporated association that supports children with intractable illnesses and their families. The welcome drink and sweets, as well as the complimentary drinks, all had a distinctly Okinawan touch and were truly enjoyable. The staff’s service was polite yet friendly and warm, which left a strong impression. The private bath is used on a time-slot rotation, but since there aren’t many guest groups staying at once, it didn’t feel inconvenient at all. The spacious bath allowed me to relax comfortably. It drizzled lightly at night, and watching raindrops fall onto the water feature in the center of the building and ripple outward felt wonderfully magical. The next morning was sunny, so we had breakfast in the lush garden while surrounded by pleasant morning light. I was able to enjoy Okinawan dishes and fruits that are not easy to come across in everyday life—it was deeply satisfying. In particular, the island banana smoothie served before breakfast was so delicious that I honestly wanted seconds (haha). It was only one night, but it was a truly lovely Accommodation where I could step away from daily life and spend quiet, peaceful time.

The coastal route to the Accommodation is refreshing, and once you arrive, the beach is right behind it—perfect for summer. I stayed with my daughter and her husband, my husband, and one dog. When we entered the Room, the aroma scent was pleasant, and it felt fresh watching TV on a projector. Sleeping with two sets of futons laid out in the Japanese-style room felt a bit cramped, but the bed was spacious and comfortable. It had been a while since I’d taken a walk along a sandy beach, and it was our dog’s first time—there were nonstop laughs, making it a fun trip full of great memories. I’d like to stay again.

We stayed here for a birthday trip to Shikoku! The moment we arrived, we were blown away by the view. Being able to enjoy that scenery in our own private space was truly bliss. We were lucky with the weather, and the sunset, starry sky, and sunrise—every time of day—were the best views we’ve ever seen! The Room was also very stylish and spotless, and it made us want to stay forever. We chose a meal-included Plan where everything is placed in the fridge/freezer. Dinner had a very fresh and delicious salad, but the rest felt more like bento-box quality. Breakfast looked exactly like the photos—so stylish—and having it with that view felt like a dream! The soup and bagel were delicious as well. For this price, this space offers incredible value—we’re extremely satisfied! We definitely want to come back again! Thank you for an unforgettable memory.

We planned this trip to visit a restaurant that is only open on weekends and public holidays. While looking for a nearby Ryokan, we noticed the radon bath and “Arashi no Yu,” and decided to stay here. We made a Reservation for three adults on the standard course. Dinner was generous, with simmered local fish, grilled dishes, tempura, and more. The simmered flounder was especially delicious with white rice. Breakfast was also classic Japanese—grilled fish, vinegared dishes, kinpira, and more. The white rice paired perfectly with everything. “Arashi no Yu” is different from both a stone spa and a sauna. Lying down on the floor covered with small stones made us sweat heavily; sweat poured out from our pores and left our skin smooth. Unlike a typical stone spa, the pebbles provide comfortable cushioning so you can lie down easily. In the radon bath area, the bathing room and tub are separated so the steam collects around the tub. We kept sweating even while soaking, and even after getting out we stayed warm for a long time. Both “Arashi no Yu” and the radon bath can make you feel very tired at first, but we slept deeply until morning and enjoyed truly restful sleep. Smooth skin, warm body, refreshed awakening—our fatigue melted away. It felt like toxins were released along with the sweat! The proprietress recommended karaoke after dinner; singing on a stage with full sound equipment was great fun. The staff’s thoughtful attention to detail was excellent throughout. This is a Ryokan we would love to stay at again next time. The restaurant we came for was 5 minutes away by car; we were able to get an early number ticket and enjoy lunch without any trouble.

With access to the sauna and an open-air bath, plus an ocean view, this price is a great value. Though compact, the Facility is thoughtfully designed and very functional, and the towels and sheets felt great on the skin—I slept soundly. I’d love to stay again.

We stayed for one night with four guests. The place was spotless and comfortable, with the latest Facility fully equipped. All the essential seasonings were provided (vinegar was available too, although it wasn’t listed!), and the loungewear was extremely comfortable. Unfortunately it was cloudy, but on a clear day you can enjoy the sunset from the rooftop while taking in views of the ocean and Mt. Fuji. Since it’s a three-story house, going up and down the stairs does take some effort, but the location is excellent—an amazing home we’d love to stay at again.

We had a truly wonderful time thanks to the clean Room and excellent Facility. Everything was thoroughly cleaned, and the cutlery and dishes were spotless, making our stay very comfortable. There was a power outage on Ishigaki Island on the day of checkout, but you handled it smoothly. We will definitely come again!!

Guesthouse. I stayed for 3 nights for the first time, and it was very comfortable. I even became friends with the regular guests. The next day, four of us went snorkeling early in the morning at Aragusuku Beach, creating a very fun memory. There is a hammock on the rooftop where you can relax. It would be even more enjoyable if the weather is nice. The kitchen is equipped with pots, plates, chopsticks, seasonings, and a refrigerator, so cooking is possible. Everyone either cooks and eats together or goes out to eat; until 11 PM is a time for socializing. I was traveling alone but quickly made friends with everyone there. When I visit Miyako Island again, I will definitely stay at this guesthouse! Looking forward to visiting again!

We enjoyed a peaceful lake, soothing birdsong, and time that felt like a world away from everyday life.

Although we checked in during an approaching typhoon and heavy rain, a staff member went above and beyond to carry our suitcases and other luggage for us. The cottage was fully equipped with a washing machine, dehumidifier, bathroom drying function, a single-burner IH cooktop, and more, which was extremely convenient. The next morning the wind and rain had stopped, and when we opened the curtains we were greeted by a breathtaking ocean view!!! It was such a luxurious moment that we extended our checkout by one hour (available for JPY 2,000 per Room). Thank you for the wonderful stay. We also really enjoyed a beach walk after checkout!! We couldn’t do stargazing due to the bad weather, but next time!

For our summer trip to Shimane Prefecture, we chose Matsudairakaku based on everyone’s Reviews. The spacious, spotless Room connected to the garden was wonderful, and dinner was truly more than we could finish—we looked forward to it every night. They also had a great selection of local sake, and we ended up drinking a bit too much. When sightseeing, they shared recommended routes that only locals would know. On our last day, since we had an early departure, they kindly prepared breakfast earlier for us as well—we apologize for the inconvenience. Everything was perfect, and it made for a fantastic trip to Shimane. We would love to stay again if we have the chance.

I stayed here last October, and this was my second visit. It’s a new, clean Ryokan, and both the proprietress and the staff were very pleasant. The meals were full of seafood, and I was completely satisfied. However, the changing area in the bath was cold, and the floor there was also cold. The bathwater in the tub was lukewarm as well, so I didn’t feel very warmed up, which was disappointing.
