LiVEMAX RESORT AKIMIYAJIMA

Close to ferry terminal, Otarii Gate and Ropeway. Family style dinner was great because all Island Restaurants close early. In room hot spring with views!

Room was spacious, clean and air conditioned / temperature controlled with lots of natural light, as well as plenty of options for internal lighting. I was in room 602 and had a wonderful view of the ocean and Otori gate. The best part about the view is the bath which is placed at the end of the room Infront of the window so you get to see the Otori while relaxing in a hot bath.

A bit of a walk but beautiful property and view from our view room.

Interesting experience, very helpful restaurant manager!

Generally very nice here. Most staff super helpful. Rooms well appointed and clean. Property location is great. My only niggle is that guests are required to wear house slippers as they enter the hotel. The system of managing these is poor and results in the shoes being shared randomly between guests. Also I wear size 12;and could not find these there.. The solution is to assign a shoe locker to each room. Other than that, very nice.

Excellent. Perfect for experiencing the Japanese tradition of sleeping on the floor. Obviously with a good floor mattress. The only downside to this hotel is that there are no showers in the rooms. They're shared onsen-style showers Of course, on my next visit, I will definitely stay at the same hotel.

Loved the private in room onsen!

Clean Room .Excellent breakfast. Friendly. Onsen in the Room and the view , excelllent

Staff were fantastic. Highlights of the staff was the in room Onsen and the dinner were you pick a variety of fresh produce and cook it yourself on a small grill. Great experience

Rooms were very spacious and the staff was helpful. This was the first hotel i went to where not all staff knew english. But thats totally fine. Youre in a foreign country and shouldnt expect them to know English. The amenities were great and dinner and breakfast were AMAZING. Such a shame we only did breakfast and dinner once during our stay.

The hotel is quite old and tired but the rooms are a good size and comfortable. The breakfast was very good, with lots of choice. We had a package with dinner which was also good - whilst the cooked food was quite cold, you could also grill your own meat and seafood at the table. However as a result, the whole hotel is smoky and smells of fried food every evening which was not pleasant. Overall a reasonable hotel as long as long as you don’t pay too much or you don’t go expecting luxury.

Breakfast was wonderful clean room staff very nice.

Room spotless. Friendly staff.

The open air onsen on private terrace was magnificent!

Hotel looks gorgeous and the guy working on the desk was very helpful and nice. I'd love to rate this hotel higher, however our toilet was leaking and there were no rooms left available for a room swap. The alarm on the TV went of at 5am for some reason which was frustrating as well, considering another review stated they had the same thing happen to them and the issue was obviously never rectified. My partner turned the alarm off for the next guests, which should have been taken care of before our stay. The pillows are weird and I woke up with a stiff neck. However I understand that this is a preference thing. Also the window in the personal in room onsen doesn't open all the way because it's blocked by the blinds, I don't know if this is by design though? However the room description states "open air onsen", or something similar. Anyway. If not for the toilet and TV I'd probably rate this hotel 5 stars.

.

Let me start off by saying that the location of this hotel is fantastic. The room we booked, Japanese Western with open air bath, non smoking, was spacious and comfortable and we were able to see the Torii gate from our window. However, there was also peeling wallpaper, a large amount of dust bunnies under the bed and even missing blinds on the window. We had to ring down to the front desk at 9pm to request the blinds be replaced otherwise the building lights would light up the whole room. They promptly attended to the matter, but why they hadn't fixed it prior to selling the room seems like a major oversight. Lastly, if you're looking for a literal open air bath, this is not your place. The window slides open just a crack, therefore, the room title is a bit misleading.

The staff was very friendly and kind and the hotel has great facilities. We enjoyed the onsen and breakfast. However, one of the blinds in our room was completely missing and the TV alarm went off at 3am - clearly this had been set by a previous guest. These issues affected our sleep quality. When I mentioned these issues to the manager, he was very apologetic. However I don’t think this hotel deserves the highest rating - for the price paid, I would expect flawless rooms.

Bath on the balcony was awesome! The view was also wonderful with a mix of city and see side with the Tori gate visible. Fresh towels and toiletry, tea and coffee provided daily.

The room I stayed in had a number of issues which should really have been addressed. Firstly, the room had glass bathing room in it. This wasn't sealed correctly and steamed up the windows in the room contstantly. Due to this, the windows had condenstaion/water dripping down the windows all night. This seems to have been for a long time as the wallpaper under the window was peeling off. I am faily certian black mould was developing there because of this. The window blinds were removed (I suspect due to the constant dripping of water/condensation causing damage to them like the wallpaper). This meant the extremely bright lights outside the windw were shining all night, and I had no way to turn them off. I also planned to use the dressing gown provided after a shower, however after lifting one, found bugs hiding under it which I had to clear out of the room. I suspect the left the window open to air it out/make less humid? But with no bug filter and the bright lights that can't be turned off, it attracted some bugs. The temprature in the room was hot and humid (from the poorly sealed glass bathing room). I wanted to open a window, but couldnt, because it would attact more bugs and without an incest filter in the window wasn't an option.
