Tokyu Hotels in Miyakojima

Located in Shigira Beach Resort, the whole resort is very large with many hotels. This hotel is far from the sea, but the facilities are very good, indoor swimming pool, beach beds, viewing balcony everything, it is a small luxury hotel. Outside the window is facing the lagoon inside the hotel. There are six or seven sea turtles. The mascot of the hotel is the sea turtle. The service is first-rate, and the breakfast is also good, especially the semi-outdoor seats, and I feel happy during the meal. There are many restaurants in the resort, all of which can be used. The sunset in the stardust garden is beautiful, and you can have dinner there. The Nanfeng BBQ in the style of Ryukyu has a very large set menu. I recommend set C with Miyako beef. There is also Saikai, soba noodles and vegetable tempura are good. There are also German cultural villages, cable cars, and semi-submarine fish watching boats at Boai Beach in the resort. If you want to book a taxi to tour the island, you can ask the hotel staff to make an appointment, which is very convenient. The transportation in the resort relies on the hotel's battery car and resort minibus, which is more convenient. It's a pity that it is far from the sea and I didn't enjoy the beach much, but the hotel itself is enough to enjoy.

As a small business owner, I usually cut businesses a lot of slack but I have to speak up about an absolutely horrible stay at the Miyako Breeze Marine Bay Hotel (part of the Shigira Seven Miles Resort). We paid 1,400 USD for myself and my daughter for a three night stay. The room had cockroaches, a horrible poop smell came up from the bath trap and the beach at the resort was closed due to a “typhoon” the day before the typhoon arrived. All other beaches on the island were open so we rented a car and swam at five amazing beaches. The service at the hotel is horrible. I have lived in Japan for over twenty years and speak Japanese so language was not the problem. The worst experience was the last night I was eating with 20 friends and they said I could not get the course menu that night because “there was no more food”. I wanted to pay for the course but was told “no food”. I was last to join the dinner party so accepted to eat buffet. I was told four times by the assistant manger “not to share my buffet with anyone”. It was like I was five years old. Got the message -no sharing my buffet. However, When I sat with everyone else they served me the course appetizer as everyone else. I was confused, so before eating we checked that everyone else had their appetizer plate. Everyone else had their plates so I started eating the appetizer assuming maybe they found food. Half-way through the appetizer the waiter came up and took it away saying, “no you buffet”. I said ok, but let me finish so you don’t waste the food. He said “no throw away”. Absolutely crazy behavior. I served myself buffet all night (not a problem). Note: The course and buffet looked very similar. When coffee was being served out of a coffee carafe, I asked if I may have some since they were serving my party and again I was told “no you buffet”. It was being served out of a carafe, not being made one by one. The kicker was they had enough food for me to pay for the course meal in the end, and I was willing to pay the extra $20 :-). Horrible behavior from the staff. Worst Japan service I have experienced in 20 years!!! Please do not spend you money at the Shigira Seven Miles Resorts (which includes the hotel we stayed at).

In Miyako Island, I am taken care of every time in this inn. It is a room larger than a business hotel, and the cooler is cool and beautiful space. I like the bath very much to get hot water soon. Breakfast is a buffet with a lot of local ingredients and I want to eat a lot. There is also blue seal ice. There is also a laundry, so it is very convenient.

I stayed alone for 2 nights. The building and rooms were very clean and comfortable. From the veranda, I could see the Irabu Ohashi Bridge and Irabu Island, and I spent a relaxing time looking at the sea. The airport and Maehama beach were very close and other attractions were easy to access. Above all, there are Max Valley, drug stores, consumer electronics mass retailers, McDonald's, DAISO, etc. in front of you, and you can procure it locally without bringing your luggage from home. When I participated in the tour late at night, I was late to go home and couldn't eat, so I bought alcohol and side dishes at Max Valley, which is open 24 hours a day, and drank in the room, but it was really helpful. Breakfast was also very delicious with a lot of Okinawa cuisine buffet. I would like to use it next time.

You can see the lively harbor and Irabu Island from the room. The sunset is on the left, but unfortunately there is a Hilton Hotel (under construction) and you cannot worship the sunset. The room is quite small if it is not superior, there is only a 20 centimeter vacancy between the bed and the sofa, and there is no closet, so it feels like walking while hitting when you put a suitcase in the vacant part. It's a shame that the air conditioner was full of black mold and had a strange odor, and the bathroom smelled of sewage. When it rained, the corridor was flooded and left as it was. I expected breakfast because there was a picture of smoothies on the hotel image, but there was no such thing at all and it was like a cheap business hotel. I didn't provide hot water and I thought I wasn't thinking about anything because there was nothing but coffee. There was Japanese food, but the only thing that was delicious was miso soup and the rest was a bag-packed side dish. It was unusual for a hotel that did not serve Okinawa cuisine so far because it was served Japanese food. I think I wanted to give a Western-style fashionable feeling. For resort stay purposes, we do not recommend it except for rooms with high prices. Under Superior is small and you are at a loss in the luggage storage area. The location of the hotel was good because it was close to the downtown area about 15 minutes walk. However, the parking lot is full soon and the second parking lot is quite far away, so if you have heavy luggage, you should avoid going out from the evening.

The facilities are full of 3-star wines. The breakfast styles are not many but they are exquisite and delicious. On the third day of the journey, there was a typhoon and there was a power outage. It turned out that 90% of the island was also out of power, but the hotel has long been there. The generator was arranged to be available immediately, so it only stopped for five minutes. The next day I went out to find out that many 5-star hotels did not have generators. The service standard was really unremarkable. We stayed at the top floor hotel before. I'm afraid we are dangerous to arrange for us to live back to the lower level. So I promise to stay at this hotel when I go to Miyakojima next time. I recommend everyone.

Fantastic experience at this hotel. Amazing villa in a fantastic estate (Shared grounds by a number of Shigira hotels). The staff went out of there way to make our stay comfortable. They had daily activities for the kids, my daughters painted Shiisa and participated in Suika-wari. We chose the eco-cleaning option most days, and full cleaning on the middle day of our six day stay. Was totally satisfactory and fresh bath towels, beach towels and bottles of water were replenished each day. For those in other comments who complain, it’s simple, don’t choose the eco-clean! What we really loved about the shigira grounds was the number of choices available. 8 Shigira hotels, 32 restaurants and cafes available with a bus service that will pick you up and drop you off at anytime, just ask the staff and wait 5 mins. The little beach in front of Imgya Allamanda Coral was, though small, lovely with lots of colorful fish around. It was very safe with my younger daughter too. It was easy to jump in the pool directly straight after the beach too. Our favorite staff member “Moana” advised us to spend a day at Aragusku (新城) beach, and she wasn’t wrong!! Our favorite beach on Miyako Island. Extremely flat and safe water with hundreds of different fish swimming around (though I didn’t I recommend taking marine shoes). My eldest daughter and I swam around with a turtle for 10 mins. We paid 1000yen and rented chairs/umbrella for the day, was totally worth it to escape the heat. Not worth taking a tent/shade, just rent the one there, they’re well set up. Finally, and what I think really topped our stay, was having such a private villa on the far end looking out over the green forest. I recommend, if you can, requesting a room at the eastern side of the property (furtherest from the road), I think our experience may have been different if we were stuck between other villas with people walking past all the time. The villas have beautiful outdoor spa baths on the balcony, ours looked out over the forest and nobody could walk in front. Walking around the property though, I noticed that everyone who was not on the end always had their balcony curtain down for privacy. I don’t really want to complain because we’ve had such a great time, but if asked my complaint would be the villa sofa. It’s the most uncomfortable sofa I’ve sat on… sorry🤭 We check out tomorrow. We’ve had such a great 6 days away here, thank you Allamanda Imgya Coral Village!! We’re coming back next year!

Avoid at all costs. This hotel is 3 stars at best and charges 5 star rates. The property only benefits from its stunning views and location which is not unique and can be achieved anywhere on Miyako. The mid level room was over $1000 and was nowhere near the quality of the other luxury hotels we have stayed at on our two week honeymoon. All of the reviews that are glowing are surely from guests who do not know what a $1000 hotel experience should be. The service at dinner was unbearably slow nearly 2 hours to deliver 1 soup 1 salad and 1 entree. Water was never filled. Our server was so preoccupied in long conversations with other Japanese guests and tables with loud and disruptive children. Lastly the bed was unbearably hard. I know this is a personal preference but trust me there was something wrong with this bed. A hard foam bed with zero fluffy surface at all equivalent to putting a 1cm foam pad on the floor. You will be much happier staying at the brand new hilton hotel.
