Very friendly and kind staff. They give their best to make you feel at home. The BBQ option that can be booked at little Mermaid was a great experience with a lot of fresh vegetables and tasty meat. Even noodles and sauce to make yakisoba are provided. The pet rabbits and howl were the highlight for our kids. They visited the lovely animals every day and the staff takes good care of their pet friends. The room was big, clean and had everything needed. The last evening we stayed the hotel manager even provided some fireworks for our kids, so kind and nice. We had a wonderful experience and will go back to this hotel. Again a big thank you to the little mermaid staff (ありがとうございました. 楽しかった。戻ってきたい )

Nothing to complain about, really.

The room is large and comfortable with a counter for drink/light snack breakfast preparation. I think they did not offer breakfast or else I did not take it. But there was a kettle in the room and a microwave. They also had a small guest laundry which was helpful. The bed was very comfortable. They offered a Barbecue in the evenings which certainly smelled good but I did not try. They seemed very young family friendly with lots of baby/toddler stuff on the communal hall that the upstairs bedrooms were off. The Nepalese staff spoke excellent English, the owner very friendly and helpful. Note Google maps would send me back to the hotel by a narrow a circuitous route.

It was a little way out of the town - only 10 - 15 minutes by car. That was apparent when I booked it, but it did mean everything was a car ride.

It is the cutest hotel. They have sweet little animals to welcome guests inside. The staff is amazing, especially Reika. She went out of her way to make us feel very welcome. The rooms are very much beach style with Japanese amenities including a heated bathroom floor and full size fridge. The beach is a beautiful 5 minute walk away. The room was very clean, the beds were comfortable, and the shower had amazing hot water with great pressure.

I would recommend renting a car to stay here. The taxi from the airport was a bit pricey and there are not any stores/restaurants that are reasonably walkable. With that being said we liked the privacy and enjoyed being away from the crowds.

Reika and staff were amazing. Exceptionally kind and helpful. They would even go out of their ways to help us reserve certain restaurants / activities in short notice (I found out that they drove to the city to try to reserve one particularly famous restaurant when it didn't take phone calls). English is not an issue which was also great. Room / facility was very clean and home-like. Everything was well organized. Location is right next to the Fusaki Beach which boasts a great sunset scenery, and quite close to Ishigaki port / city where you can enjoy many restaurants and local activities. Small things like renting Okinawa-style clothes for kids and snorkeling gear for free was also a plus. And the kids loved playing with the small animals (owl, bunnies, ducks, parrots, etc.). Definitely our hotel of choice next time we visit Ishigaki.

The location was out of the town however there was a large resort in walking distance. We found the owner so welcoming going above normal service to make sure we were comfortable. We loved that there were animals ( bunnies , ducks , small owl and horse. The room size and bathroom set up were very large and worked well for our family

I would have loved a coffee shop or seating area to sit out and enjoy however there may have actually been one and I missed it

The hotel is very nice and comfy with a great location (10 min walking distance from a beautiful beach with all the facilities you need - changing room, shower, etc). The staff is really nice and helpful and it was a pleasure having conversation with them. Once again, I would like to thank them for their kindness and availability. We had a so pleasant and great stay You should also try the BBQ dinner :) !

Spacious and clean room, also quiet location. It’s on top of the hill and had a great view of the ocean. Walking distance to Fusaki beach for swim.

N/A - apart from the restaurants in the nearby hotel, there aren’t any eateries in walking distance which I knew about so it wasn’t a problem.

Staff were helpful, location slightly located out of city but perfect that it’s quiet. Non issue since I already knew beforehand.

The soundproofing of the rooms were weak so when some children kept running up and down the stairs, I could hear from my room and it is quite annoying.

Super friendly staff. You feel very welcome the moment you step there. Their pets are very lovely too. The room was huge, very clean and had all the amenities

Nice comfy room. Helpful and friendly staff gave good advice on things to do.

Nothing
