We had a wonderful 1 week stay! The location was just what we were looking for. Silence and the ocean nearby. The house is very spacious, clean and has everything. They come in the change the towels everyday and fully cleaned once a week. The owners were super kind and available whenever we needed. We rented a car from them at a super friendly price and they picked us and left us at the airport. You can also rent snorkeling gear at a very low price for the whole stay. I totally recommend staying here if you want an experience close to nature. It was a beautiful experience fully immersed in Ishigaki’s nature and beauty.

A beautiful and at the same time a very quiet location (2 min walk to the beach). Ideal for those who value privacy. Our room had a terrace, where we could dine and enjoy an amazing view of the sea. The accommodation was well-equipped with everything one needs, including a washing machine, which proved especially convenient after returning from the beach. The owners were very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended.

Nothing to complain. The only minor inconvenience for us was the absence of a nearby grocery store. However, shopping could easily be done in the main city and its surroundings going by a rental car.

Our hosts were amazing and very helpful. Everything one could think of was provided for bathing, cooking, relaxing, laundry. Thoughtful touches included fresh flowers from the garden on the table. Very sweet! It was private and quiet with plenty of room. The added convenience of renting a car, with pickup and drop off was terrific! Especially loved the private outdoor shower!

This isn’t a negative, but hot tub in the description does not mean Jacuzzi, rather a Japanese soaking tub in the bathroom.

Big comfortable house with everything working, Yonehara beach with a reef - National park - with hips of fish you can swim from the beach, no currents or waves, in 8 minute drives from the house. Helpful owners who helped me communicate with car rental in Japanese when me car had troubles.

Yonehara beach reef is only swimmable at high tides (before 11 am and after 4 on when I staid). Other local beaches are also very shallow at not really swimmable most of the day (at low tides). Ishigaki turned out to be quite a small place, not much to see or do, except taking ferry to other small islands to see other reefs/ jungles. For that it is better to stay the city close to the port. Also you can truly swim on this

The house was very comfortable with a cute porch to sit on. Our house was near the pool which was very comfortable during the warm days. The house has everything you need. Because it is further away from stores and the centre, it is really recommended to rent a car. The lovely lady working here helped us a lot too and was very friendly. It was a great place to stay at and very central to the island if you want to explore it by car.

The man working here was very rude to us. He treated us very condescendingly and disregarded what was discussed earlier with his wife. I can only imagine how nasty and confusing that interaction would have been if we did not speak Japanese.

Very relaxed, isolated village. Clean rooms with good kitchen. The owners were very nice and kind. The beach was absolutely trashed when we arrived but we cleaned up 100m with owners and it was pleasant for swimming and beautiful sunsets

No wifi in the room. We had to go to the owners’ house for that. Also not much in the way of (open) restaurants… we walked 2.4km twice to one, which was worth it!

The location of this place is amazing. If you're looking for a stay in nature, a quiet place to relax, then this is a perfect spot. We thought we weren't able to stay here as all the rental cars were gone, but the accommodation arranged a rental car for us, so this was great too. The view from the little house is beautiful and you have a beautiful private garden with terrace and lounge chairs. You can walk to a beach in a couple minutes. The north side of the island is the most beautiful too, so from this location you can easily get to Kabira Bay, beautiful deserted beaches and great snorkeling spots. Nobu San is a fantastic host, thank you for everything! Would stay again for sure.

The beds are a little bit too firm for me.

Amazing place. We had the white villa with seaview. Every morning we woke up with the beautiful view. The place is absolutely huge and nature all around. Trees, lizards, toads, birds. Comfy beds. A breathtaking beach within a 1 minute stroll. The north side of the island is the most picturesque so this is where you want to be. A rental car is an absolute must when staying here. The owners are incredibly sweet and kind. We really loved it here, thanks so much! 10/10!

Nothing

Private and chill location. Super mellow and great to unwind. Lovely pool and spectacular beach for walking and swimming. Sea kayaks were easy to get and super fun. You could paddle to the mangrove community within 45 minutes - Absolutely recommend that! The BBQ set was great for dinner. The restaurant tacos, pizza, chorizo, and buffalo wings were excellent.

It was a perfect tropical paradise setting. The villa was super comfortable and functional, and the owners were delightful- very friendly and welcoming.

It was very dark at night and walking to the villa required a flashlight.
