Pros:

Amazing little resort! Staff were great despite our language barriers, and breakfast and dinner buffets were accommodating for vegetarian.
Easily navigatable to rooms, I couldn't figure out the room power but staff were able to assist me.
Beautiful beach at the back behind the pool was great for walks and seeing the stars at night.
Very convenient resort shuttle buses to and from the ferry port! Absolutely loved it.

Wir würden definitiv wieder kommen
Pros:

Die Lage in der Bucht ist sensationell! Das Hotel bietet ein tolles Frühstück, drei verschiedene Mittagsgerichte und ein Buffet am Abend. Das Essen schmeckt sehr gut.
Man merkt, dass das Hotel etwas in die Jahre gekommen ist, die Lage, das gute Essen und das freundliche Personal machen das aber wieder gut. Auch wenn die Mitarbeitenden größtenteils kein Englisch sprechen, klappt es mit Deepl oder Google Translate sehr gut.

Loved it. The meal was delightful as was the restaurant we were taken to. The kayaking experience w.
Pros:

Location was lovely as was the hot tub. So lovely to be picked up at the ferry.

Cons:

We thought the hotel was on Taketomi Island as that was where we thought we had booked . After 3 ferry trips we got there. The pool had some black spots around the edge.

Great memories , great staff!
Pros:

Very friendly service, some staff also spoke english. The rooms are exceptionally spacious for Japan standards and the buffet dinner was great with high quality japanese meat and local cocktails made in front of you. The beach right in front of the hotel is spectacular

Cons:

We didn’t rent a car so discovering the island remains limited to organised tours or renting old electric bikes with limited battery capacities. Not possible to swim on the hotel beach is a pity but not the fault of the hotel.

Hotel itself is nice but not the 5 star hotel we were expecting
Pros:

The hotel itself is great, the rooms are really lovely and spacious, beds are comfy etc. The food in the restaurant was good, and the included drinks were a treat. The pool and the beach right outside the hotel are gorgeous. There also aren’t loads of places to stay on Iriomote so I think it’s probably the most premium option.

Cons:

First place we’ve been in Japan without shampoo and conditioner in the rooms (and this is by far the most expensive place we stayed), our room was also right next to a plant room which was whirring all hours of the day and night.

Our main issue was with the service we received. Very friendly staff but we didn’t get the service we would expect of a 5 star hotel. E.g. we weren’t offered any help taking bags up to our room, we struggled to get a response over email in advance of us arriving (despite chasing days before) which meant all the activities were booked up by the time we arrived (I thought they then might help by suggesting other providers but they didn’t - I managed to find guides on my own), they said all the bikes were fully booked out but there were always at least a dozen sitting there unused… so it was frustrating and not the experience we were expecting for what we paid. I think for a 5 star hotel we would also expect some kind of spa facilities like a sauna / onsen. And breakfast wasn’t included (despite cafes and shops being extremely limited nearby) which meant the per night price was a lot.
