Airport Guide
Compare 4 airports near Ishigaki
New Ishigaki Airport (ISG) is the only airport located on Ishigaki island, positioned 11.01 km from the city center. It is the primary domestic and international gateway, offering direct, convenient ground transport options including local bus services and taxis, making it the fastest and most cost-effective arrival point. Conversely, Shimojishima Airport (SHI), Miyako Airport (MMY), and Yonaguni Airport (OGN) are located on separate islands within the Okinawa Prefecture and do not share ground connectivity with Ishigaki. Reaching Ishigaki city center from these airports involves complex inter-island travel, primarily requiring a connecting flight to ISG followed by the standard ground transport from there. For travelers aiming for Ishigaki, flying directly to New Ishigaki Airport (ISG) is the only practical recommendation. Visitors should note that there are no trains or metro systems on Ishigaki; island travel is almost exclusively conducted by rental car, local bus, or taxi. It is highly advised to book rental cars well in advance, especially during peak seasons, as demand often exceeds supply.

The breakfast offered a wide variety of good quality options, and even on weekdays, the hotel had a high occupancy rate. The staff were very friendly; I was particularly touched when the gentleman responsible for cleaning in the morning bowed to me in a traditional Japanese greeting. We booked sea view rooms through Trip.com, and my friend and I each made separate bookings. It turned out the room types were slightly different, with one being much closer to the sea, which led to a bit of a disagreement with the front desk. Luckily, we speak Japanese, and the hotel eventually made a compromise, for which I'm grateful! I hope Trip.com can be more accurate when describing room types during the booking process to avoid such unnecessary hassle. The hotel is right by the sea, and the water is clear, but it's a shame there's no sandy beach, which was a bit disappointing. The rooms are also on the smaller side.FromUS$164

The hotel is in good location and very accessible to city area. The staffs are friendly and it is to great pleasure with the tour centre inside inside the hotel which you can easily book a lot of outdoor activities without worrying all the transportation arrangements.
The availability with massage shops, souvenir shop, spa and sauna, swimming pool, bar and restaurants are very comprehensive and you can just enjoyed all kinds of amenities by staying in this one single hotel.
There are some restaurants nearby the hotel as well which also serve as a very good alternative for dining options.FromUS$144

The amenities were excellent, and the room was spacious and relaxing. ^ ^
The location was also great, and I was impressed by the sunset reflected on the ocean and the starry sky.
I'll definitely go back around this time next year. ^ ^
The weather was nice and comfortable, and it wasn't too crowded with tourists, which was great. ♪
I was able to relax in the large public bath, and the mozuku seaweed tempura was delicious. ♪FromUS$146

Facility was very nice - especially with the fridge and washing machine, which makes it very convenient for travellers on extended trips.
Breakfast, as the name suggests, is a very strong point of the hotel with fresh sashimi and a lot of local delicacies available. Although on busier days the restaurant might seem a bit small, but overall it's managable. Even for those plans without breakfast they would provide you with a smoothie everyday as well so that's a good point.
Also enjoyed the free drinks available, especially on the alcoholic drinks provided in the condonium.
Distance-wise it was within walking distance to the city centre and very close to the airport bus stop.FromUS$70

I went on a trip to Ishigaki with my friends and their partners! Since we all love drinking, I really loved that we could have sake on the first floor, but... we couldn't drink much because we ended up going out to eat.
When I asked, they told me we could bring our own snacks and eat them on the first floor! That was the best! Also,
The location was so, so good that we met up nearby whenever we went on a tour, so it was within walking distance.
It takes about 15 minutes to walk to the stingray tour, and the port is only 4 minutes away for the night tour... just the best.
There is a public market right in front, and there are so many great restaurants and bars, so we went around trying different places and had a really great trip!
We rented a hybrid car, and since we only went to Kukule, the nearby Don Quijote, and the Monkey Village Observatory, we didn't even spend money on gas; the tank didn't drop at all!
Since we stayed for two nights and didn't ask for extra towels, they gave us salt and merchandise only for our room! Hahaha. Actually, I stole some towels from my friends' couple, hehe. Anyway, I recommend it!FromUS$82

The manager is very caring, as long as you ask, he will try his best to help. The hotel is very close to the beach and it takes 2 minutes to walk. There is a flushing equipment and free laundry. It only takes more than 20 minutes to drive to the hotel from the airport. I think it is very suitable for parent-child travel. Also, the breakfast here is very rich and delicious.FromUS$87

The facility was very clean, just as in the picture.
It is located in the Shiraho district, 10 minutes from the airport and 20 minutes from the ferry terminal to the remote islands.
It is a white house with a red tile roof, and the vending machine in front of the house is the landmark.
We recommend arriving there while it is still light on the first day.
In addition to what is described in the description, there are also water guns for children, an aquascope, a sandbox set, etc., which were useful for a little play on the beach.
We stayed for three nights, and it was very convenient to be able to return between activities to wash our swimsuits and aqua shoes and prepare them for the next day.
There is a good selection of tableware, but there were many cups such as small plates for serving, and the plates we wanted were not available, so if you are interested, it is better to check before going shopping.
The ferry terminal area is prosperous, and there are many convenience stores, supermarkets, and restaurants near the terminal.
The microwave, kettle, and toaster were also convenient to use.
They also provided a manual on the equipment, but I couldn't find any information about the projector, so it was difficult to understand. (Subscription services such as Netflix can be viewed immediately after logging in)
I also recommend a kayaking experience on the nearby Miyara River.
The stylish hotels near the ferry terminal are nice, but for our family who usually live in an apartment, this villa was very appealing.
Thank you very much.FromUS$250

This is a time to make family memories by going on an overseas trip with family once a year~ I decided on the destination and accommodations by searching various famous sites and bloggers, and it was better than expected. There are 10 people in total. The room size and room condition are much bigger and better than in the pictures. Since renting is essential in Ishisaki, I chose to go to a place where many foreigners visit outside the city, but I didn't see a single Korean person~ The room size is really big, and the bathroom is clean and luxurious, and it's big and there are two of them. I was so satisfied that I can't express it in words, and my parents also gave a big thumbs up to the accommodation condition. Thank you.FromUS$275

The fire alarm went off for over 30 minutes in the early morning. Hotel staff didn't come out until about 10 minutes later and offered no official explanation. They only spoke in Japanese to the people who had evacuated outside, and then simply said ”no fire” in English. The next day, there was still no announcement, and the staff's handling of the situation was very disappointing. The pool had a lot of leaves and debris floating in it, and cleaning only happened much later. There were no staff members at the pool, so I couldn't ask for towels or request a cleaning. The service really fell short compared to the facilities.FromUS$212

The hotel has a sea view across the street, and I found it fascinating how the pool seemed to be connected to the ocean. Dinner included a barbecue and a formal course meal. Since the barbecue was fully booked, I opted for the course meal, which was fantastic! Breakfast was also delicious, and the surrounding area was well-maintained, making it a great place to take pictures. I wanted to see the stars at night, but it was a bit cloudy, so I couldn't really see them. There was also a stargazing tour available at the hotel. There was a small souvenir shop within the hotel, which I browsed and found a variety of souvenirs to buy. I'd love to visit this hotel again!FromUS$140
