I enjoyed staying at Shigira, the service was great, the room condition was perfect. All the staffs were so kind, especially the English staff(so sorry that I forgot the name) helped us book dinners for the whole stay and upgrade our room to ocean view. I would definitely choose Shigira for my next stay. Thanks a lot!

Great rooms with very comfy beds. The hot tub on the balcony was a real hit. The kids loved the pools and the snorkelling at the beach was superb and very family friends. Breakfast was great. The staff were friendly and extremely helpful.

What could be improved: There were not many food options on site and it required a short shuttle bus ride or car drive to nearby locations for better options. We had lunch in the restaurant on one day and the only bartender / waiter on duty was clearly overworked. More staff were required here.

The breakfasts, both the Japanese and the western, were excellent, especially the champagne!
We also loved the Club Lounge.

What could be improved: We utilised our rental car a lot during our stay to see other parts of Miyakojima. It would have been good if there were other transportation options.

What could be improved: No shuttle was available for the last flight on arrival at the airport had to use taxi

The room is so nice that it's out of my expectation. Very big, pleasant, clean and with good seaview. Had champaign, BBQ scallops and tiger prawns for breakfast. Overall, money was well spent and I should have booked one more night.

1) Room was comfortable and everything was provided.
2) Really enjoyed the golf cart that you can use to drive around (included in room).
3) The Club Lounge was also included in our room so we really enjoyed it too.
4) The bathtub was super comfortable and enjoyable (can fit 2 people too!)
5) The valet people are nice and friendly.

What could be improved: 1) The pool (in the room and the hotel's) are too cold! They couldn't be bothered to turn on the pool heater. It was still cold at that time. We asked them to turn on the pool heater in our room. It took one whole day for the pool to warm up, so we wasted one day of our stay not being able to swim in the room.
2) Most staff couldn't speak decent English despite being a 5-star hotel.
3) Location: restaurants nearby are all expensive hotel restaurants. If you want a normal-priced meal, you'd have to drive out to the city, at least 15 minutes drive.
4) Many bugs in the room pool, but I guess there's not much they can do about that.
5) We ate at the hotel's restaurant (it was fine dining). It became an uncomfortable situation because they listed different prices in their Japanese and English menu. The prices they advertised at the hotel lobby was also wrong. Please check and update your menu prices.

部屋が広くて清潔で、設備も良かった。

What could be improved: 朝食バイキングが混み合って時間がかかった。

직원분들이 식당 예약도 도와주시고, 전반적으로 안내해주시려는 의지가 보였습니다. 한국어를 하시는 분이 계시지는 않았으나 영어와 일본어로 친절하게 대해주셨습니다.

What could be improved: 수영장은 11월까지만 운영한다고 하니, 미야코지마 여행을 계획중이신 분들은 참고하셨으면 합니다. 이런 정보가 부족했었네요 아무래도.
