Although I’ve visited Okinawa many times, this was my first stay here.\nWe chose the Pool Executive Suite (2 Bedrooms), and it was incredibly spacious and open—best of all, we could use the pool anytime!\nThe kids were thrilled, and the adults joined in too; we ended up swimming and playing over and over.\nHaving a washer-dryer in the Room was a huge help—we’d wash and dry our wet clothes right away, then head back to the pool again the next day.\nIt was a bit disappointing that we couldn’t see the ocean because of all the trees in front of the pool, but at night it was fun spotting bats flying around, cats wandering by, and looking for other unusual creatures.\nSince no one could see us, we were able to truly relax without thinking about anything.\n\nThe beach just a short walk away was full of nature, with gentle waves—it was truly beautiful.\nWe snorkeled as a family, and we really appreciated being able to borrow beach chairs and parasols.\nWe went to watch the sunset, and after being told we might be able to see fireworks, we went out for that too. We visited the beach several times—the sound of the waves and peaceful atmosphere felt cleansing. It became our best Okinawa trip ever.\n\nAs for meals: breakfast—the Japanese set meal was absolutely delicious. We chose Japanese breakfast all three mornings of our 3-night stay.\nFor dinner, we tried à la carte at the restaurant once; everything was excellent and we were very satisfied!\n\nIf I had to mention one small point:\nThe Room Facility is perfect overall, but despite having a kitchen and cooking tools, the refrigerator is extremely small—like one you’d find in a Business Hotel...\nWe couldn’t chill wine in it, so we asked to store it in the Hotel cellar. Considering how well-equipped the Room is otherwise, I wish there were a slightly larger refrigerator.\n\nThis is a pleasantly intimate Hotel overall, so I would recommend it to anyone who wants a quiet stay.\nAll staff members were attentive and wonderful.\nIt turned into our best Okinawa trip ever—we’d love to return someday!

I was looking for a Ryokan about an hour’s drive from Hakata where I could enjoy a sauna and great food, and that’s how I found this place. It seems this long-established Ryokan has been renovated into a Ryokan with saunas in every room. The Japanese-modern style was wonderful. There are few shared spaces, so it’s perfect for a relaxing stay-in retreat. The staff were very kind. It has the unique charm of a Ryokan—different from the service style of foreign-owned Hotels. The meals reflected the local flavors of Kyushu and Oita while also trying new ideas, and everything was delicious. Dinner was excellent, of course, but having hitsumabushi for breakfast was a first for me and felt refreshingly new. One of the condiments was yuzu kosho with grated daikon—another great new way to enjoy it. And of course, it was domestic eel! The sauna let us adjust the temperature, connect via Bluetooth, and the relaxation space was very comfortable. Since this is a Ryokan suited to an immersive stay-in retreat, I would have appreciated slightly later check-in and check-out times. Overall, I’m very satisfied with this Ryokan. Thank you!

The view of the calm Seto Inland Sea was breathtaking. Having a golf course right in front added excitement as I imagined playing the next day. Above all, I deeply appreciate the staff's kindness in bringing my husband's forgotten valuables to the station. We are truly grateful for your help and apologize for any inconvenience caused. We will definitely visit again!

Stayed for a Multiple Night Stay in Room 102. Usually, the only interaction with the owner is during checkout, but I deliberately visited the office right after check-in to say hello. I got information about dinner and sightseeing for the next day. It seems there are no restaurants open after 6 PM within walking distance, and even in the main area, places can be fully booked, so if you don't want to cook dinner while staying here, it's better to make a reservation at a restaurant in advance. The room is equipped with a Nespresso coffee maker, but since there is only one coffee capsule per person per day, those who drink several cups should bring their own. There is also an Aeroccino, so it's convenient to buy milk at a nearby convenience store. The mini hot plate, washing machine, and gas clothes dryer were very useful. Breakfast is delivered in a paper bag from a partnered delivery store. Unfortunately, the delivery time could not be specified. On the first day, it was a hamburger and corn soup, and on the second day, an Okinawan seaweed roll with luncheon meat and omelet. It was delicious.

I stayed with my brother's family. The Room had two bedrooms and one tatami room, and one of the tatami rooms and bedrooms was a connecting room separated by a door, so we could watch over the children sleeping alone with peace of mind. Additionally, there was a jacuzzi on the terrace, and although we used it on the coldest day in December, the children were having a great time with maximum excitement (laughs). The living room on the second floor was spacious, and even with eight people, it didn't feel cramped, allowing us to have an enjoyable time. Also, it was convenient to have bathrooms and toilets on both the first and second floors. Personally, the most helpful feature was having a washing machine and dryer. The gas dryer, in particular, was very convenient as it allowed us to quickly take care of the children's clothes without taking much time. Basic appliances were provided, but since there were no pajamas, it might be a good idea to bring your own (as indicated on the site). The surroundings were quite empty, and although it was along the road, we were able to spend our time relatively quietly, allowing the adults to relax while the children had a great time playing on the terrace and in the spacious living room. My brother's family also expressed their gratitude, so I was glad we stayed. Since it can accommodate a large group, I would like to use it again if the opportunity arises.

We stayed as a group of 2 adults and 3 children. The room was very clean, and all the amenities were well-prepared without any inconvenience. The view from the room was great, allowing us to enjoy a resort-like atmosphere. At night, we could also see beautiful stars. Thank you very much! If I had to mention one thing, accessing the bunk bed room on the first floor was only possible via an outdoor staircase, which can be a bit cold in winter.

We were looking for an Accommodation to visit Izumo Taisha, and chose this place because we loved the style—like staying in a private villa—and the interior design. The interior is, of course, wonderful, and it’s so comfortable that rather than filling your schedule with plans, we recommend spending a relaxing time at the Accommodation. Experiencing the owner’s warm personality and hospitality made our trip many times more special and memorable. The Accommodation itself feels like a true power spot. That thoughtful attention shows in every detail: every Room was spotless and cozy, and our stay was deeply relaxing. It was such a lovely Accommodation that it naturally made us think, “We want to stay again.”

Everything was wonderful—10/10!! First of all, the Room was lovely and spotless. It had a washer and dryer, hangers for drying laundry, a fan, insect spray—everything you could hope for was perfectly provided. The refrigerator was stocked with plenty of drinks. We gratefully enjoyed them. The hair dryer was a ReFa, which made me even more excited. The shampoo and conditioner were also high quality. For breakfast, we had a vegetable-packed salad, bread, soup, fruit, and more. It was delicious. Even after check-out, they kindly listened to our requests. This is truly an outstanding Accommodation. I’m already worried that if it becomes too popular, I won’t be able to make a Reservation... It rained heavily the whole time, so I’d love to visit again—next time I hope to see a beautiful sunset and the stars.

We stayed here last year with our dog and loved it so much that we came back again this year. Our dog had the freedom to play in the garden dog run, and the BBQ while listening to the sound of the waves was amazing. The sunset was beautiful, and from the back door you can reach the beach in no time. We even received a souvenir when we checked out. We’ll definitely be back!

We stayed with a family of four and one dog. The Facility was amazing—everything was so well equipped. We had a great time in the full-scale karaoke Room. The sauna Room, large bath, and cold plunge tub were all excellent. The hair dryer and shower head were ReFa. The spacious living room has a projector, so you can enjoy streaming on a big screen or play games like Nintendo Switch. The kitchen is also large and had plenty of dishes, seasonings, and just about everything we needed. There are three toilets, all very modern. For sleeping arrangements, there are two twin-bed Rooms on the first floor, plus one bed in the third-floor loft along with futon sets for larger groups. From the loft you can step out onto the terrace, which also serves as a dog run— we could play with our dog while sitting in chairs and enjoying a beautiful ocean view. There is also a Room for pets. There is another dog run on the first-floor terrace as well. A washing machine and dryer are available too. Near the parking area there was a vending machine Room with various items such as frozen takoyaki and yakitori. The parking area is spacious. The roads are narrow because houses are close together, but even an Alphard could pass through without any issues. The building’s tile exterior was very beautiful as well. Although homes are close together, the neighborhood was quiet and comfortable to stay in. The karaoke Room is soundproofed; we went outside to check just in case, and it was fine. There isn’t a supermarket nearby, so we stopped at one called Picasso on the way to buy groceries—alcohol is available too. We had so much fun that it felt like 10:00 checkout came in no time at all. We had an amazing time overall. Next time we’d love to come back around summer and enjoy a barbecue too! Thank you very much!

Our family of three, including our second-grade daughter, stayed here after a day at the beach. We really appreciated being able to use the washing machine and drying area. There’s a convenience store nearby, and Sunset Beach is just a short walk away—it was truly beautiful and moving. Kamo Aquarium is also close by, and it’s about a 40-minute drive to Dewa Sanzan, making the location very convenient. We were very satisfied with the meals as well, and would love to stay again.

The Facility was impeccably clean, and a wonderful fragrance filled the entire Room. The location was excellent, and during the evening BBQ, we were moved by the sunset sinking behind the sea with Mt. Fuji in the background—it truly helped us unwind from everyday fatigue. Despite being along the coast, the private feel of the location is outstanding. We would love to visit again in summer.

This was my first time staying here, and thank you very much for your thoughtful care in every detail. The Room was very clean, and I felt comfortable throughout my stay. It was so pleasant that I naturally felt like, “I should leave it clean when I go.” Thanks to you, I was able to refresh both body and mind, and I left feeling truly energized. Thank you for such a wonderful time. I would love to stay again next time, and I look forward to it.

I stayed at the accommodation again this year following last year. The owner warmly said, "Welcome back," and I found myself replying, "I'm back." In the morning, I enjoyed a walk on the private beach right in front of the accommodation, basking in the sunrise and searching for shells. At night, I spent time on the rooftop gazing at the star-filled sky, experiencing a lifestyle I can't usually enjoy. Breakfast was different every morning, and opening the delivered basket became something to look forward to. I highly recommend reserving dinner during your stay. The owner and chef remembered our conversations from last year and even improved upon the ingredients we praised, offering the best hospitality, delicious meals, and enjoyable conversations. This stay gave me the opportunity to reflect on my approach to work, relationships with others, and daily life, making it a truly wonderful vacation. Thank you very much.

I had dietary requirements, and after informing them in advance, they accommodated me with great care and attention to detail. Every staff member provided excellent service, and I had a very comfortable stay. Thank you very much. This is an Accommodation I definitely want to visit again!

I stayed in Building B, Jihākayā. I love it so much that I’d like to stay long-term. When I finally got to stay at Sachibaru a year and a half ago, it was also in Building B, and I liked it so much that I kept thinking, “I want to go again,” but the timing never worked out and a year and a half passed. Last time, Hamabe no Chaya was being renovated, but this time I was able to have breakfast there! You could spend the whole day there. Of course, Yama no Chaya is wonderful too. I’ll do my best to find another chance to stay again.

A year ago, due to heavy rain, we had to cancel our stay. Amid the lingering summer heat, we revisited after a year. This time, we had the pleasure of staying at a wonderful accommodation for one day. Renting an entire house with a view of Nara's mountains as the backdrop to the dry landscape garden, enjoying an evening beer was the perfect way to conclude summer. For dinner, there was a variety of alcoholic beverages available, and the shabu-shabu by the hearth was absolutely delicious. At night, gazing at a sky full of stars marked the end of our day. Knowing that this accommodation is run by your family made it feel very warm and welcoming during our stay. It was such happiness to spend a day doing nothing but relaxing peacefully— a truly special experience at Sasayuri-an. Thank you so much! We will definitely return again!

The Facility and breakfast were very satisfying, just like others have mentioned. However, there was one issue. Dinner was supposed to be at the neighboring restaurant—likely under the same management as the Hotel, as their menu was also placed in the Room—but I chose Tuesday for my stay because Wednesday is their regular holiday. Unfortunately, it turned out that Tuesday was also a holiday. Being in a rural area with no nearby restaurants, I had to drive to Yonago at night but managed to resolve the situation. Later on Instagram, I found out that some weeks have Tuesdays as holidays too, but this information is announced only a month in advance and doesn't align with Reservation timing. For those planning to rely on the neighboring restaurant when making a Reservation, please make sure to confirm beforehand!

We stayed here to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We have stayed at many Accommodations throughout the whole country, and this was truly our number one—an Accommodation we sincerely want to return to. What impressed us most was the privacy that comes with renting an entire villa and the peaceful setting where we could relax without worrying about anyone around us. We spent a leisurely time by the pool, enjoying a luxurious moment where time seemed to slow down. In the evening, we invited friends who live on Ishigaki Island and enjoyed a barbecue. With perfect weather, watching the scenery shift from Ishigaki’s beautiful sunset to a sky full of stars is an unforgettable memory. It felt less like a Hotel stay and more like spending time in our own private luxury villa—an exceptional experience. The Room was spotless down to every detail, and the Facility, amenities, and even the selection of drinks in the refrigerator were excellent. It was high-quality yet comfortable, with thoughtful touches everywhere. At night, everything was wonderfully quiet, and we were able to fully relax both body and mind. Thanks to Gokkaiseitei, our anniversary became a truly special memory. For anyone who wants to spend an extraordinary time on Ishigaki Island or celebrate an important occasion with someone special, this is an Accommodation we can confidently recommend. Next time, we would love to book a Multiple Night Stay so we can savor this luxury even more slowly. Thank you very much.

I stayed for one night while visiting relatives in Kanoya. Right in front of me, the beautiful sea and Sakurajima stretched out, and I felt wonderfully refreshed—it was a great time. I also heard that a footbath will be added soon at the nearby roadside station, so I’d love to stay again.
