"My husband and I had an absolutu fantastic stay here for 3 nights - it's the perfect base to explore the island while being located close to Ishigaki centre for great food options and amenities. The swimming pool was a fantastic length to do laps in, and the buffet breakfast was delicious with lots of western and Asian options. Our room was spotless with a beautiful view over the ocean. We will definitely be coming back to stay again! "

Top Arakawa Hotel Reviews

ANA InterContinental Ishigaki Resort by IHG

8/10 Good

"Very expensive and sadly there is a class system. Hotels.com advertised 3 pools but we could only use one which was not ideal and not enough sun beds. Paying £330 a night we wouldn’tn expect to be the ‘lower’ tier of guest. However, we loved our room even though no balcony and the food was incredible. Chinese restaurant was permanently closed though, again this was advertised as open. They could do with a lounge bar for the lower tier guests. Beach could do with a clean up, a lot of washed up rubbish and plastic plus random cargo boxes left to rot."

Grandvrio Resort Ishigakijima

10/10 Excellent

"Staff was very friendly and the room was clean. The property grounds and pool are very nice. The beds and pillows are hard as a rock so sleeping was less than comfortable. The room was also very warm even with the air conditioning set at 19C. We had to use the stand fan and dehumidifier the entire time so that was less than desirable. The breakfast buffet is overpriced at ¥2800 per person for what was offered. Not very many options for foreigners who don’t eat traditional Japanese breakfasts. Coffee in the room in addition to tea would also be nice. Overall we enjoyed our stay despite those minor things. The onsite Yakiniku restaurant was very good!! "

palmvilla ishigakijima karei

8/10 Good

"A quaint and comfortable property. The house and surrounding property were pleasant with good outdoor amenities (deck, tables, chairs, etc). There was a minor hiccup with access when I arrived, but it was quickly resolved. Some additional cooking pots would have been nice as only frying pans were available for the stove which limited my cooking options. Overall a good property and a positive experience."

Hali Hali House

10/10 Excellent

"Very homey bed and breakfast run by the sweetest couple. Very good location - minutes walk to Fusaki beach, 15 minute drive to the city/ishigaki port, and 15-20 minute drive north where many of the best sights are. Homemade, traditional breakfast included in the already very budget friendly stay. Friendly shiba dog and cats, beautiful garden. Great find!"

Little Mermaid Hotel Ishigakijima

10/10 Excellent

"Quaint little property where you can pet rabbits, an owl, and a parrot. The rooms are large and the staff are courteous and helpful. Laundry facilities on property, 300 yen to wash and 30 minutes of drying time is 100yen. They also provide free laundry soap. There are so places within walking distance, but I would recommend getting a rental car to see more of the island. The staff can help you with finding things to go see and do. "
