Kunigami Holidays from NZ$1,551

We booked this hotel as a quick one night stay before taking the ferry north. The hotel itself had lovely amenities like the onsen. It was clean, peaceful and relaxing. There was one pool we could use, but the rooftop pool cost $45 for each adult and $20 for each kid. So for a family of 4 quite expensive (and not advertised as an extra fee during the booking process). Our room was also quite small. The area around the hotel was shady for a family. We zipped out to eat dinner but my husband walked to the family mart a few blocks away and said it definitely had red light district vibes). The staff was lovely and helpful.

It was probably the best public bath (i.e. hot spring) I have experienced in any hotel, it was clean, with full amazing sea view. The breakfast was a bit expensive, but worth the price with the food quality and variety. Plenty of restaurants nearby, convenient store is just downstairs.

Good hotel if you have a car but wouldn’t recommend for solo travelers

The hotel has a little bit of a dated feel though I think they tried upgrading it a bit. Location on the island itself was good for us as we spent 3 days with activities northward from the hotel. The pool was great too! However, it is not beachfront & while we can walk there, to walk back it would be uphill. The shuttle is only every hour, so it is not as convenient as I would like. Check-in is 3pm, we arrived 2pm & the receptionist said our rooms were ready but would only let us in early for 2000yen/room. I felt that out if goodwill, they should at least let us have one room free of charge. It is only 1hr & the rooms are vacant & ready! That left a bit of a bad taste in my mouth. Parking is also chargeable at 1000yen for the stay. They have Eco Cleaning for housekeeping which meant they only change your towels & clearing trash. I think it should minimally include making of beds & also changing out used cups & mugs.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay overall. The staff was very friendly and helpful, and the hotel was very clean, comfortable and felt fancy!
