Overall Ratings & Reviews Ishigaki Seaside Hotel

We can give 5 stars for the location, right on a beautiful beach. The hotel itself is in need of much renovation. The beach chairs were all cracked, the umbrellas in shred. The buffet food was average. The staff was courteous and helpful. The bedrooms were large, but a bit outdated. We found the non motorized activities overpriced. Paddle boards should be free for hotel guests and not close to $30 for 30 min. However the rooms were not too expensive and they are not many hotels right on the beach on Ishigaki.

Great location and great staff

We stayed in one of the Kabira bungalows and really liked it. It was bigger than expected, clean and comfortable. The hotel staff was very nice and helpful. Beautiful location and beach. The main hotel itself and the common areas are very dated. We never ate at the hotel restaurant (overpriced).

Everything was good, nice staff at the front desk and in dining. Large room comfortable bed with two pillows and beautiful ocean view except that there was no bottled water in the room and no coffee. We stayed in 5thfloor of Teeda bldg. The view was so amazing. If you want your room to be cleaned you have to pay, they just collect trash and change towels everyday. It is just fine if you stayed 2or 3 days. Some hotel do the same but they clean the room after 3 days for hygiene purposes. But i think not in this hotel. If you stay more than 3 days you have to pay if you want your room to be cleaned. If you want peace and stay away from everyday busy life to relax and de stressed this is the best place to go to. Another thing is there is no convenient store nearby or restaurants. You will eat in their restaurant if you have nothing. It is much better to have a rent a car, the bus is limited in this area. Or be sure to take bottled water and food before checking in if you dont want to eat in their restaurant because its a little pricey. If opportunity comes, i will definitely stay again.

For the price the cottage in the village was a great deal. Lots of space, an ocean view, quiet, private. The hotel is a typical “Bubble era” construction, but the location was great. The staff were helpful and had local knowledge. The package included breakfast, which was good as there were no other local options. The breakfast was OK. The western buffet options weren’t very appetizing, but the local Okinawan dishes were (but warm as opposed to hot). Highly recommend the hotel as option as a mid-price location. You will need a car as there is nothing, other than a great beach, in the area.

Hotel has awesome views but is away from the city, so one would need to get a rental car. It’s slightly boring when there is rain around especially for kids. But most importantly it is clean and room is spacious.

We really enjoyed our stay on the high floors of the Teida building. All the balconies have an amazing view of the Manta city in the Kabira ocean area. The sunsets were amazing. Breakfast was really good with a lot of variety, we were grateful it was available so early since most of the area doesn’t open until almost noon. At first I was nervous when I saw some old guest pictures from ten years ago, but the rooms in Teida have been renovated and are very new and clean. The shop was convenient and has ice cream too, and they gave us new water and towels every day for free. We really loved our stay and would come back again!

The location was excellent, situated at the center of the bay and protected from wind and high surf. The hotel offered a few marina activities, which added to the convenience. Overall, the hotel was decent. The breakfast was reasonable. The staff were all very friendly and extra helpful. I appreciate that very much.

Amazing beach and fabulous sunset views from very bright and spacious rooms.

The hotel is beautifully located, directly on the beach and is well maintained. I can definitely recommend going there. Everything was clean and staff was always friendly and helpful. The only downside was in my eyes that the pool closed early (6.00 pm).

The property is in excellent condition and impeccably clean. The staff is incredibly friendly and welcoming. There's a wide range of fun activities to choose from, including paddle-boarding, banana boating, diving, snorkeling, kayaking, jet skiing, and more. The bay where the hotel is located is absolutely stunning. While the pool is on the smaller side, it's still plenty of fun for kids. Just a short 15-minute trip from the bay, you can find a spot where you might be lucky enough to encounter manta rays and turtles. If you're a diving enthusiast, this is a must-visit location. The down side of this hotel is that is a 30 minutes ride from the city. There are small restaurants in the area but I highly suggest to rent a car ( glad we did) because otherwise you are stuck there with almost nothing in the surrounding.

家族旅行で2泊利用させていただきました。 多忙な家族の予定をやっと擦り合わせてとれた短い休暇でしたので、自然豊かな環境のホテルの目の前で海、プール、バレーボールやアクティビティが楽しめたのは良かったです。食事もBBQのスタッフさんにとても親切にしていただきました。ありがとうございました。今回は初めての石垣島でしたが時間が足りなかったので、また機会があればぜひ利用したいと思います。

1min from the beach

I highly recommend this hotel for families and couples. The staff is nice and kind . The rooms are quiet big and comfortable. The beach is so near and very good . The only weak point is the location. You need to rent a car cause out of the hotel there’s nothin.

Amazing experience!

We stayed in the cottages, they were simple Polynesian style bungalow perfect for our family. We had two as we were a group of six. The beach is fabulous and the location is peaceful. The pool is also great. Things to note. You really need a car as this spot on the island is not within walking distance of very much. Also note the restaurant is buffet only. We opted for local restaurants, which were fabulous. There is a great little convenience store on site plus a surf style gift store. We loved our week here, the island has so much to explore. The staff are super friendly and helpful.

I didn’t like the fact that we realized that beach and pool is closed after 6:00 pm. Also the restaurants and services of the hotel close very early and in that area there’s nothing else.

L’hotel é molto curato e pulito e si trova direttamente su una bellissima spiaggia balneabile. Dotato di due ottimi ristoranti: un buffet (per colazione, pranzo e cena) e uno yakiniku (cena). La zona é estremamente tranquilla, lontano da ogni segno di civiltà: questo é sia un vantaggio che uno svantaggio, in quanto se si intende esplorare l’isola é obbligatorio avere un’auto a noleggio. Di fronte all’hotel passano degli autobus pubblici, ma gli orari non sono molto favorevoli, né molto frequenti. Abbiamo deciso di accorciare il nostro soggiorno proprio per mancanza di possibilità di esplorare il resto dell’isola (nessun servizio shuttle, né possibilità di noleggiare auto o scooter. Solo biciclette muscolari o elettriche). Dopo aver spiegato il motivo allo staff dell’hotel, abbiamo trovato molta comprensione e addirittura un membro dello staff si é gentilmente prodigato con degli altri ospiti per farci offrire dei passaggi in auto. Ci hanno addirittura rimborsato le notti di cui non abbiamo usufruito! Tornerei sicuramente sia per la location, sia per lo staff, che per l’hotel in generale (ma con un auto a noleggio!). Grazie :)

Cosy hotel with fantastic personnel. Clean rooms and great food.

Amazing Hotel with very friendly and helpful staff. We enjoyed the sea and the view from the room (6th floor). The room was very spacious and well equipped with a fridge, a kettle, and a hair dryer.
