Kiyoko-san is so kind and helpful! Dinners were all excellent, highly recommend.

The building is in the style of a traditional Japanese Ryokan and Kioko-san is incredibly friendly, knowing all the best places to go given a certain weather. Thanks to her we got to see coral on the first day, though we arrived at 16:00 and a sea turtle the second day. They also have their own fruit patches with bananas and pineapples that is served at breakfast.

We had an amazing stay in Irumoteso. The hosts are very friendly people and they serve great food (one of the highlights of our stay in Iriomote :)). Our room had a great view on the garden and the seaside. There is a nice common room for all guests to hang out. Washing machines are available - super useful when you come back from a full day trip to the jungle. If you don't have a car, there is a bus stop nearby (the bus goes only 4 times per day though). There is a shop and a few restaurants within 15 min walk.

We had fabulous home- cooked meals for dinner & breakfast. Kimiko was an amazing hostess, a 1woman wonder doing the cooking, setting up tours, picking up guests & returning them to the ferry & cleaning rooms.

Kyoko-san is the warmest most accommodating host I have ever had. The property is beautiful, 6-minute walk to the water, the rooms large, AC properly functioning, rentals were economical but Kyoko-san will make you feel like family. Her cooking was better than 95% of the food in Iriomote or Ishigaki. Her recommendations for tours were also always on point. Everything with a friendly demeanor, even dropping us off at Uehara port. She even made us elaborate origami for our honeymoon and my bday. Truly first rate.

Beautiful and spotless property well kept by the host Kiyoko. We had amazing, varied dinners every night and loved how peaceful this property was. We felt extremely welcome and loved having this place as a home base for all of our outdoor activities on the island.

The guesthouse owner makes you feel like family and she makes excellent meals. It is really close to the port and they will come pick you up when the ferry arrives.

We stayed for two nights and everyone we met and everything we had at the facility was amazing. We enjoyed a special (and free) night tour to find a special flower which only blooms during the week when we stayed. I can see how much the owner loves to welcome guests as well as her staff. We really enjoyed the breakfast and dinner as well. If you are looking for a stay in one of Ishigaki islands, I believe this place should be your first consideration. Recommend to stay there for more than three nights. We were there only for two nights and we thought we had to stay there more.

We had a wonderful stay at Irumoteso. The host is very friendly. She helped us to organize the excursions and her food was excellent. Our room was very large and clean. We would warmly recommend this accommodation.

Kiyoko was extremely helpful and friendly - helped us arrange trips and took us to a local dance event. Food was very good and Kiyoko made vegetarian dishes for my husband
