ANA InterContinental Ishigaki Resort by IHG
大きい施設、美味しかった朝食、アメニティにも困らなかったし、お水もいつも補充され、良かったです。一つ言うならばシャワーの排水口が詰まってて嫌でしたが、伝えたらすぐに直してもらった。

The BREAKFAST HOTEL PORTO Ishigakijima
Spartan but decent size room. My interaction with the staff was good. 5 minute walk from town center. I will stay there again on my next trip to Ishigaki

We loved the children’s room. Plenty of space for our family of 4 and lots of good amenities for kids. The resort was lovely and we had an amazing time.

HOTEL Ishigakijima 2020
Overall good stay except that there was very limited space to open our luggages. Suggest they should remove the big chair set to provide more space.
