Very good place to stay! Recommend!”
It was enjoyable experience! The boss of the guest house, Hiro, is a very nice guy...His English was good and gave us useful guides on Ishigaki and other islands. Thanks to him, we have surprises and fresh experiences everyday. The condition of the guest house is also good among other guest houses on the island!

Real Ishigaki!”
If you are looking for hostel/guesthouse in Ishigaki then I would look no further than Shiraho. It's in a quiet village, easy to access from the airport. The owner is a fantastic host and incredibly helpful. Very relaxing surroundings.

An adventurer's hostel”
Be careful about the pin on the Agoda map, it is a little off. The hostel is just off the main road on the street behind the petrol station. I loved this place. Got a warm welcome right from the start. The owner (Hiro) is really cool. The hostel is in a small town, so you might want to rent a car - Hiro can help you with this. There are regular buses from to the main town from the road outside though. The hostel has open top roof, kitchen areas and is great for backpackers or self-sufficient humans! It is a 2 minute walk from a great coral beach, and although the town is small, there are some wee shops and restaurants to be found. This is a real chance to see the real way of living for local Ishigaki islanders, and was welcomed by me after spending 2 nights in the main town area prior to staying here. I would go back again!

Enthusiastic ”
Manager Hiro was very enthusiastic to help planning our itenary. He recommended us to local beaches for snorkelling which we found it was even better than paying more than 10k yen to join a local tour. Strongly recommend if you want to have an adventurous and exclusive holiday in ishigaki.

Very budget but very friendly”
We only stayed here one night at the end of our stay in the Yaeyamas, it's not downtown Ishigaki but is very near a bus stop to town and the airport. The staff are English-speaking, super friendly, and will give you various different tours of "local-secret" spots, for a moderate fee, or they'll give travel and restaurant advice, which is of course free. The best (and most authentic) restaurant we went to in our whole time in Okinawa was the one they recommended! I wish we'd stayed here earlier in our trip so we could get more insider info, however it was not very comfortable or secure - our room did not have a lock and the front doors are left open 24 hrs. I doubt you have much to fear in this little neighbourhood, though! Good place for backpackers looking to meet friendly locals and have adventures.

Amazing Ocean view with Great staff”
Me and my friend stayed in a twin here, but the dorm rooms seem similarly excellent. The property is amazing, with cheap beer and hammocks with views of the stars. Hiro is a great guy and helped us find some really hidden secret beaches on the island where we did some amazing snorkelling. Thanks again for having us !

Nice owners, Good for meeting people”
I had a great time in this Hostel! The two owners helped everybody out with their needs of sightseeing, secret local beaches or renting a car. They put all effort in giving us maps and any other information we needed. It was a really international place with lots of different people to meet. Although it is a quiet and relaxing place. No Partyhostel or any disturbing guests at night. Also the really cute grandante made nice little snacks which where tipical for the area as a gift. You can rent a car here or even ask the owners to drive you somewhere and get a pickup later. The Airport is also very near. I really recommend this place!

Very fun little hostel!”
The place is right on the beach, and they have cubbies/lockers/slippers for every guest. The beds have fluffy blankets and comforters, and the common spaces are really good for either stargazing or hanging out. The staff is also awesome, and will give/draw you maps to everything. They can also pick you up from the airport - huge plus. Would definitely stay there again.

A friendly place to stay but far from everywhere”
the guy is friendly but the place is far from airport and ferry terminal. Is a bit tricky to find this place particularly if you arrive at night time . The environment is very friendly and people staying there are normally laid back.so very depends on what you want to do . It's about 30-35min from ferry terminal by bus and 10-15 min from airport .Its a old house and is not super clean but they do have basic hygiene .
