Ishigaki

The Ishigaki area offers travellers a blend of local residential life and cultural authenticity in Japan's southernmost city. Traditional Okinawan homes mix with modern residences along quiet streets where locals go about their daily routines away from the tourist areas. This area provides easy access to Kabira Bay and local temples while offering glimpses into genuine island living. Visitors staying here can walk to area markets, family-run restaurants, and community gathering spots that showcase authentic Ryukyuan culture at a relaxed, local pace.

Just a short walk from beautiful beaches with turquoise waters perfect for swimming, Tonogusuku balances peaceful residential charm with coastal access. Family-run eateries serve home-style Okinawan dishes at budget-friendly prices. The morning cockerels, ocean breezes, and evening cicadas create a sensory experience that captures island magic.

Kabira

Kabira Bay showcases the best of Ishigaki Island with its crystal-clear turquoise waters and pristine white sand beaches.

This tropical paradise balances resort amenities with authentic island culture. The area offers excellent swimming and snorkelling in protected marine areas. Local restaurants serve fresh sashimi and traditional Okinawan specialities like goya champuru.

Top Ishigaki Hotel Reviews

ANA InterContinental Ishigaki Resort by IHG

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."

"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!! "
