They helped us arrange a rental car through their property, dinners, and hiking tours. They have a spa on site which is great. We were lucky enough to get sunshine both day we were there but had we been “rained in” it’s a perfect place to lounge and relax. We had the smaller room and this room was NOT small at all!

スタッフの皆さんも島のこと、食べ物のこと、ホテルのこと、話題が豊富でお話しするのも楽しいと思います。お土産も持たせてくださったんですが、開けてびっくりする素敵なギフトご入っていました。 ぜひまた滞在したいです。できれば次はもうちょっと長めに! 幸せな時間をありがとうございました。 ##### Tomoko Stayed 1 night in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Asae Mar 31, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 居心地の良いホテルです。働いている皆様のホスピタリティが高く感動しました。お食事、設備もとても満足しました。心からのんびりすることが出来ました。ありがとうございます。 また伺います。 ##### Asae Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Masao Mar 24, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities サービスがゆきとどいていました。 ##### Masao Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Takahiro Mar 17, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 最高のホテルです!
