Hotels near Hirara airport

Pros: Very nice and helpful owners. Beautiful garden. Everything ist very clean; they really take care of the house and garden with lots of love. The kitchen is well-equipped. I stayed here for the third time, and every time it was great. (Currently -nov. 2019 - they have a warning on booking.com about construction noise. We did not hear anything, I think that they are extra-careful with this warning.)

Cons: It's no problem for me, but if you have light sleep, you might feel disturbed if loud other guests are staying.

Pros: Beautiful garden, quiet location and excellent host!

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The location was closer to some snorkeling beach but far away from city center. It is a new pension house and everything was really clean and tidy.

Cons: Noise and chats from guest next door could be heard easily.

Pros: Traditional Japanese rooms with the possibility to leave the door open to fall asleep to the sounds of nature. The Staff is super friendly and very helpful. Bycicle rental is for free.

Cons: Some insects around the house, so maybe not recommended for hypersensitive people.

Pros: Location is unique...it was so peaceful and quiet. Staff really nice and helpful. Classic japanese tatami bedroom. I just loved it. Beware...the place is isolated, either rent a car or be prepared for some serious biking, like 10 kms to the nearest best spot for snorkelling, of paved but hill road (staff provided me with a fixed gear bike, with front basket and all, so it was kinda hard on the way up). There`s a lonely beach just minutes away though. 15 mins of cycling to the nearest family mart. No other business near. At night there are not street lights and it gets daaaark (bike had a front light but it was not near enough. Be prepared, I wasn't and used my smartphone light). I covered the whole island, and I was exhausted but happy. You seldom see people on this side of the island, and an ocasional vehicle every now and then. But I put these under "likes", because that was what I was looking for. As I said, if you're not one for adventure, just rent a car. It's cheap for japanese standars. Taxi from the airport was also cheap, 1600 yens, 15 min ride. On the way back, the staff called a taxi for me. Staff speaks almost no english, but they were so nice.

Cons: Nothing

Pros: 5 Stars plus for Pension Ntsunaka! You have to stay here, if you visit Miyakojima! Completely peaceful, surrounded by sugarcanes with a magic garden, created with much compassion. The rooms and the guesthouse is maximum clean, You have all facilities you need, everything is best equipped and modern! The host is very caring neither with food advice and with whatever you need ! He is helping with all his hands! Although the rooms are not big, you have a feeling of vast space because there is a huge shared kitchen and Living room and the big garden where you can do barbecue ... we stayed there for 2 weeks and didn’t wanna leave...

Cons: Nothing!

Pros: We liked the friendly, laid-back atmosphere, the well-equipped kitchen and the pretty garden. A very pleasant place!

Cons: No complains!

Pros: Very comfortable and kindly, like sweet home.you can cook easy here, and enjoy to meet other friends.

Cons: Can't stay more days....

Pros: Property located in an excellent beach, staff are friendly and bilingual

Cons: Mm perhaps the price, but considering the location of the resort, is not too bad ...

Cons: The hotel is trying to charge me extra fees three weeks after checking out and paying in full. The beach was off limits after 6pm and beach access limited at all times. This information is written in their Japanese site but not on the English version. No explanation was given at the hotel verbally or in writing. In addition, at check in, the clerk promised to contact me later about the breakfast tickets. There was no contact from staff at all. I stayed at this hotel two years before with my Japanese wife and had an excellent experience. This time, with my kids but without my wife, the experience couldn't have been more different.

Pros: Very good food at the hotel!!

Pros: - very spacious rooms - great views - right next to beautiful beach, beach is west coast so perfect for the sunset - resort has multiple restaurants, couple shops, tennis courts etc. - lots of parking space

Pros: Nice location if you like nature, huge resort, friendly staff, nice big onsen. Despite the outdated rooms and architecture, the resort provides a relaxing and cosy atmosphere

Cons: Breakfast was below average, definitely not 5 stars, no fresh juices but sufficient. Every little thing is charged extra, old rusty bicycle 30$ for a few hours, even a lousy quality gym costs extra, one hour later checkout charged, would be better to get your own golf cart as everything is remote and big and hard to get around (shuttle buses within resort work ok), a simple restaurant is missing, the Soba Restaurant over-priced and not good. Biggest problem: hotel completely outdated, desperately needs renovation. Shuttle service to town would be good as otherwise ‚trapped‘ in resort without even a conbini store

Pros: This was my second visit to Miyakojima and stay at Shigira Bayside Suite Allamanda. As was my first visit, the whole experience at this impeccable resort facility was outstanding. Great staff. More than comfortable rooms with gorgeous views of the ocean which Miyakojima is famous for. Excellent restaurants with a very good balance of types of cuisines to choose from. The breakfast buffet was exceptional !

Cons: Every facet of our visit to this special island and this hotel was perfect, so there was not anything that we did not like. Please keep up the great work.

Pros: I liked the availability of having a beach in the resort that included diferent kinds of activities. I liked that my daughter got a photo with a frame as it was her birthday. The breakfast was really good, I liked the variety of option they had in the buffet and the different option on the brunch restaurant. For the room, we stayed on a lagoon suite which is the one that had a private pool. When we got to the hotel we were offered an upgrade to the 4th floor by paying a small price. We really liked the view from the 4th floor, you could see the rest of the hotel and the beach. The staff was always kind and trying to help with whatever we needed. My daughter is vegetarian and the staff was really helpful trying to fit some dishes for her dietary choices.

Pros: Shigira Bayside Suite Allamanda was an incredible experience for my wife and me. We visited Miyakojima during our honeymoon and had a wonderful time at this resort. We were upgraded upon arrival (complimentary) to the Royal Pool Suite, and it most certainly did not disappoint. Miyakojima is a very quiet, peaceful island with not a lot to do outside of the resort, but the resort itself was wonderful so it didn't bother us at all. Highly recommend for any couple wanting to get away from the hustle and bustle of mainland for a relaxing experience down south. 5 stars!

Pros: I like the Ambience of the lobby and all of the above eating bfast with beautiful view to see

Cons: I was staying at the Allamanda jacuzzi the second building next to the hotel lobby and there’s no elivated way to carry all heavy luggage, using stairways si tiring

Pros: Everything else. The pool villa lagoon suites are amazing. We upgraded to the allamanda rooms on the 4th floor, definitely worth it for the sun exposure. The 1-3 floor are shaded most of the day.

Cons: Having to make reservations for dinner each night was inconvenient

Pros: The Royal Pool Suites are stunning, spacious, comfortable and well appointed. Love the range of restaurants that offered across Shigira resort... love the facilities at the nearby Mirage

Cons: would prefer later check out option

Pros: Everything was perfect

Cons: Nothing

Pros: The breakfast was okay. Not loads of choice but what I had was tasty.

Cons: The pillows are quite big and firm. I prefer softer pillows but that's my personal preference.

Pros: location is perfect, hotel is quite new

Cons: no electric bike rental

Pros: Room is a bit wider than standard japanese hotels. Perfectly clean. Coin laundry, microwave and vending machines available. Location was ideal because you can reach any spot in miyakojima within 25min by car. Right in front of the hotel there's a mall and some restaurants.

Cons: Parking was 500¥ per day. I understand they make good money out of it but other hotels give you parking for free. Staff told me there was no free parking around the structure but I found plenty of parking spots where to leave the car even overnight. Room has balcony but I'd rather have a slight bigger room without balcony other than a balcony that i can't use not even to dry the beach towel as birds poop on it. Plus i saw some spider webs so I'd never open that window. Staff or cleaner tried to enter in my room (when the room has been already cleaned) but has i placed the lock they couldn't get it. So they left without saying anything or apologize. I'm sure it was just a mistake but it's never a nice thing.

Pros: Bed was comfortable. Location was convenient. Easy to find.

Cons: There was a constant hissing sound coming from the toilet.

Pros: Excelent view at sunset

Pros: Location

Cons: Some issues with the Wifi (seemed a bit weak)

Pros: Great breakfast

Cons: Waiting for washing machine

Pros: The place was clean and comfortable

Pros: Great location, staff, breakfast and price. Big and clean room. A truly nice place to stay.

Cons: There was a little bit of cigarette smell but the rest was great.

Pros: The staff were accommodating towards the children. The free breakfast was excellent for this price range.

Pros: Wonderful view and peaceful atmosphere.

Cons: There are no grocery shops around.

Pros: The sea view is really nice and the room is comfortable.

Cons: The facility itself isn’t very new so it’s a little old.

Pros: The beach was beautiful, with parasols service,and Snorkeling area. The room with Japanese tatami area was very comfortable and nice, with all you need! Inside the resort there is a really nice onsen surrounded by tropical vegetation The coastal landscape is beautiful but the presence of the enormous accommodation facilities is too intrusive.

Cons: The complex is enormous ( different categories of resorts put together in a large common area ) so you need to take a bus or a car for reach all the restaurants and facilities included in the resort, could be annoying. The 70 percent of the restaurants were closed, I understand that it is a complicated moment but they should have informed us before booking or rearranged the price of the stay packages. The coastal landscape is beautiful but the presence of the enormous accommodation facilities is too intrusive. It’s a big resort village so if you want something more wild and “natural” it’s not the place for you.

Pros: The location is great . Great views from the room .

Cons: Poor maintenance of the room - smell like mold. Building was not clean .

Pros: Cosy, spacious, clean and well-equipped apartment, with unbeatable sea view, staffs were friendly, free cable car ticket was bonus, we will definitely come back. The bakery and café, wide variety of restaurants nearby were plus.

Pros: Very spacious appartment-room. Last floor, excellent view and extremely calm and quiet. Equipped kitchen (even though we didn't cook). We really enjoyed staying here. However, note that you do need a rent-a-car for this place. You can't walk around. It's quite far from most of the restaurants.

Pros: The location is good. The front desk staff are helper. The room is clean and tidy. The kitchen utensils are enough and good condition.

Cons: There is no cafe and it is a bit inconvenient.

Pros: Good hotel, old but clean. Nice view from the room.

Pros: The rooms were clean, great view.good service.Good breakfast ,you can choose between Japanese breakfast or western.

Pros: Great view. Good location to many restaurants and to the bridge. (Irabu oohashi)

Cons: The beds and pillows were too hard, it was uncomfortable to sleep.

Cons: Anything

Pros: Spotlessly clean. Helpful staff. Mahatma Beach out back behind the windbreak. Note that pool is for diving only. Thank you for your amazing hospitality!

Pros: house itself is ok,the main problem is traffic, far from everywhere, without renting a car you can hardlly go anywhere,bike rental is available but from everywhere is really far to so far, nothing other than ok. fortunately i stayed only two nights, i think one night stay is enough,won't be back to Miyakojima,

Cons: traffic is extremally unconvenient.

Pros: Lovely guesthouse in a quiet area. Staff were very friendly also and picked us up and dropped us off at the airport no problem. Would recommend and definitely stay again if We ever returned

Cons: No complaints at all.

Pros: Warm welcome. Big open plan guest room. Draft beer option. Washing facilities. Cute dog!

Cons: Male dormitory bit cramped. Warm compared to rest of house. Bunk not so comfortable but hey it's a bunk I guess. More comfy sofa in TV room needed!

Pros: Meg and Shu San were very friendly and helpful. Meg was able to offer lots of recommendations in the local area to explore - restaurants, cafes and activities. Would recommend to English speaking international travelers as some places on the island have limited English but Meg communicates well :)

Cons: Nothing we didn’t like :)

Pros: Great facilities, staff were friendly and very helpful with not only questions about the guesthouse, but also information about snorkeling and tides. The beds were firm but comfortable, good pillows.

Pros: Great value, friendly owners, cheap rental scooters.

Cons: Could be a lot cleaner especially communal areas.

Pros: You can enjoy DRAFT BEAR Iin kitchen! It costs only 300 yen( less than Staffs were friendly and kind You can get a rental bike with 300yen for 24 h （but Miyakojima is very hot, so if you rent a bike, you needs to hydrate often) You can get a ride from airport 540yen

Cons: Not city center, so If you don’t have a car, it might not be convenient.

Pros: Private room

Cons: Private room is good. Domotory is soso

Pros: The location is very central, the beds are comfortable and one of the staff was very nice to me (the one who was accommodating about the bicycle and the wi-fi), so thank you to him!

Cons: Although the location was good, as it is central, I found the amenities lacking and very old, especially for the price. It might be the cheapest option around but... compared to some guest houses I stayed at on other islands for a third of the price.. it's a little too much in my opinion. The staff was nice and tried to accommodate but one of my first mornings, I was woken up at 8am from the reception phone and they ask me if I had left my phone somewhere? It was odd and obviously a mistake, but not a very pleasant wake up call. I rented out a bicycle, which was of the worst quality (it hurt my bum so so bad) but at least the staff who rented it to me was very nice, and didn't charge me after hearing my feedback. On the second day, the wi-fi dropped completely and I couldn't do some of the work I was supposed to, but they changed me rooms straight away, which was nice but a little hectic. One thing I don't understand though... no one comes to make your room? No cleaning, no changing towels, only a plastic bag at your door with new towels. I am not sure if it was because of Covid but I wasn't told that there was a disruption of service when checking in. To me, when you stay at a HOTEL (not hostel) and pay the price, they should at least come and make your bed, as well as changing the bins.

Pros: Great locations, there are a lots of restaurants just down the street, sad thing is that they usually open at 5pm / 6pm, better also book for the breakfast as the convenience store nearby are always out of food, and restaurants that serve breakfast lunches are 10 - 15 mins away from the hotel.

Cons: This is a remote island, there's not much to offer by the hotels there, not many facilities / entertainment within the hotel meaning you'll have nothing to do especially this is place that always has storms hitting these islands.

Pros: Location is excellent if you're wanting to explore Miyako and enjoy local restaurants

Pros: Centrally located , pleasant staff on front desk and in cafe. They take pride in their work and will help you as best they can.

Cons: Hotel a bit dated and limited English spoken by staff. Was given breakfast voucher but not explained it’s optional and would be added to bill. Room was clean and compact and had everything you would need for an overnight stay.

Pros: Every staffs were kind and polite.

Cons: Breakfast wasn’t over expected. Actually lower.
