Ocean front location, overlooking the Taketomijima island. More than average facility and service. Children friendly atmosphere and facility.

The outdoor pool had a good atmosphere. However, the towels were not sufficient at the pool side. 6pm closing is too early when the sun sets at 7pm. Should consider to close at least at 8pm.

The buffet breakfast was served hot and had a good variety of western and Asian dishes. Staff were attentive and helpful. The amenities and the condition of the facilities was above expectation (including free ice cream outside the public bath area!). The mattress was stiff but surprisingly comfortable.

It seems most services are not available from noon to 2pm, so we couldn’t grab lunch at the resort when we were waiting for transport to the airport. Given the size of the resort, it would be nice to have at least a small gym.

Great breakfast and good facilities. Nice view from the resort. Friendly staff and clean rooms. Indoor pool was great when it was raining. Outdoor pool somewhat small, but we did not experience many guests using it in late March. Plenty of space ar the sunbeds. Great facilities for babies. Babyfood, chairs in public bath etc. We also enjoyed the public bath. Highly recommended resort!

At checkin i was asked to pay some additional money for my 3 year old (1000 YPY / day), which there was NO mention on at booking. After some conversation and talk with a manager, they said i did not have to pay. Not really a problem, but just a bad start, after a long trip travelling with 2 kids.

I liked the outdoor pool and loungers, as well as the ping pong and billiards table and the hammocks. The baths were really great, and the only ones in our whole holiday to include extra towels (so you didn't need to take your room towels) and a cold plunge. One of the hotel receptionists in particular - Kakeru - went the extra mile and helped us a lot (to find an osteopath in town, to stay extra nights because of the typhoon etc).

We were stuck during a typhoon and it would have been nice to have comfier common spaces - the Deigo bar for example was not a very comfy place to hang out. But of course these were exceptional circumstances! A fitness room would also make an excellent addition to the hotel.

Great facilities, there’s a wide range of options to entertain yourself while there (outdoor pool, indoor pool, indoor and outdoor public bath, karaoke room, restaurants etc). Rooms were also extremely large compared to Japanese standards (using Tokyo as a reference here) which made a difference during our stay.

Sadly airport shuttle times were very limiting - we landed at 7:40 at the staff said that the shuttle only ran until 7 pm, so had to self fund a cab. Also, outdoor pool opening times were extremely restrictive (it shut at 6 pm so impossible to enjoy the outdoor pool after that time). Finally, no shuttle service to the city center as we had read in some other reviews.

Good service all round from free shuttle service from airport to quick check in. Staff very friendly and helpful. Rooms are large and well appointed. Balcony with ocean view Breakfast is a good buffet with asian & western options. Location is good - short walk towards Ishigaki town with a few bars and restaurants along the road. The hotel has a few restaurants and shop where you can buy drinks & snacks. Good for families - lots for children to do.

Small swimming pool & no gym During our stay, there was an earthquake / tsunami warning and the staff evacuated us all to the roof terrace - standard procedure. If the hotel could put the announcements in English & Japanese it would be most helpful.

The staff tried to do everything for our beautiful staying. Food in restaurants was fresh and tasty

Hotel itself not really big, swimming pool was quite small, sun beds were just plastic and were not comfortable at all. And at the description of this hotel should be the warning that people with Tatoo can not use the pool without covering. We knew the rule about hot baths, hot springs that we can’t use because of cultural reasons. But it was ordinary pool-and it was quite weird. And there is no beach at this hotel, you need to take an excess ion to swim at the sea

Location was just ok: water front with no beach. Nice resort with well maintained facilities, helpful and kind staff, good places for in-house dining.

It was kind of surprise there were no rental bikes as announced in their web site.

Really good hotel, nice and relaxing. We ate one night at the Yakiniku restaurant the food quality and service was great. We had the buffet breakfast included in our room price and it was very good.

The hotel has no beach in front of it, we knew that when booking but next time we go to Ishigaki we may look for a resort hotel with a pool and a beach.

Great facilites and amenities. We particularly enjoyed the onsen and indoors swimming pool, as well as the size of the room and the breakfast buffet at La Mer. The staff was very friendly and we could also use the airport shuttle.

Even though it's located in front of the beach, it's on a rather rocky side, so I wouldn't recommend it for swimming, but you can make use of the indoor and outdoor swimming pool.
