Ishigaki Japanese Pensions | Places to Stay in Ishigaki

May 9, 2023 Janette Largent

The water around Ishigaki is pure blue, with white sandy beaches to soothe your senses. But don't just stand on the beach and stare. Travelers recommend a ride in a glass-bottomed boat to gaze at the coral reefs and tropical fish from above.

Hotel Happy Holiday Ishigakijima

Strategically located excellent low cost hotel

Reviewed By sinnerpoetry

This hotel is very close to Ishigaki port, which makes it perfect as a "base camp" to explore the Yaeyama islands. Moreover, the value is huge for the little price that it costs: big and clean rooms, free laundry, helpful staff (they even made us do the check in before the allowed time since the room was ready) and, cherry on top, a good breakfast in the morning with perfectly cooked eggs and spam meat. Obviously if you are serching for luxury or a resort style stay this is not the place for you, but if you are looking for an unexpensive stay with all the basic amenities... look no further.

Nata Beach Villa

confortable hotel with nice staff

Reviewed By schmidtmg

We spent 4 days at the Nata Beach villa hotel, situated towards the northern end of Ishigaki Island. You need a rental car to get there and around the island. The rooms we had were clean and comfortable, and hotel staff very friendly and eager to give tips for sightseeing. There's a sandy beach 2 minutes walk from the hotel - it was totally empty during our stay, but to my taste there was too much plastic litter. The hotel sees a good local (Japanese) breakfast which is included in the room price. Drive to the airport is around 20 mins, to Ishigaki town around 30 mins. to the northernmost tip of the island less than 15 minutes.

Lulaliya

Inviting place in the charming location

Reviewed By travelerscal

The first thing that stands out about Lulaliya is its proximity to Ishigaki’s famous Kabira Bay: it’s less than a five minutes’ walk from the landmark, and that alone makes it worthwhile to book. However, it offers so much more! I stayed three nights with a friend, and we found that it was a perfect place to kick up our heels while staying on Ishigaki. The rooms are cozy and well-furnished, and have everything you might want. On the first floor, there is a spacious café/eating area. Here, you can enjoy the house breakfast (for an extra fee), or even buy breakfast from another place (the nearby bakery, for instance) and bring it back. You can also use it in the evening as a lounge if you’d like to hang out, but don’t want to stay in your room. My friend and I ate birthday cake there! Hot water for tea/coffee and cold water for drinking are available around the clock. The proprietor, Aya, is very friendly, has excellent English, and can help you book any tours you may want. She booked us a wonderful all-day snorkeling/kayaking tour, and helped us shape our days on the island. She was a delight to talk to, and could help us hammer out our plans at the drop of a hat. She’ll introduce you to the nearby restaurants and their hours, which is good—every day, there’s at least one place that’s closed, so it’s good to be careful of. The hotel is also very close to the bus stop, which is another bonus: Ishigaki doesn’t have too many buses, but the Kabira Bay hub is one of the ones where more of them come and go from. We found Lulaliya a great base of operations, and I would stay again in a heartbeat.

The worst customer service ever

Reviewed By abV9326ET

We booked this place on Booking. com partly because airport pick up service was offered, and we also called beforehand to confirm the availability of it. A day before our trip we received an email saying they’ll be exactly an hour late because they had to pick up other customers. It’s more than 1.5 hours after our flight had landed and we’re still waiting at the airport. Called the hotel and the owner was super rude on the phone, threatening me to cancel the booking, no apologies offered at all!

While driving on Ishigaki, we did a stop by here for lunch, the food was first class. This also a pet friendly place with our dog we enjoyed a great meal and beautiful view. They even welcome us with a bowl of water for our dog when we arrived.
