Hotel Miyuki Beach

“Shame about the beach staff attitude”

I was going to go all out with a scathing review but held back because for the price it was good (Y3,500 pppn - 5 of us including breakfast). Room was fine and spacious - two beds plus tatami area which could have slept more than our 3. Someone mentioned lack of a mini-bar but there is a Lawson Con… more

I was going to go all out with a scathing review but held back because for the price it was good (Y3,500 pppn - 5 of us including breakfast). Room was fine and spacious - two beds plus tatami area which could have slept more than our 3. Someone mentioned lack of a mini-bar but there is a Lawson Convenience Store just around the corner to stock the fridge which is how I like it anyway. Large public bathroom decent size. Forget about dinner - so-called barbecue is indoor and at your table - didn't not smell nice. It is not long to drive somewhere so no big deal unless you want to drink. We had a great Hawaian takeout one night and had it on the beach. Beach staff - one poser who reckons himself, says nothing, no smile and looks like a Yakuza. The female staff is beside herself with rules - you can't snorkel without a life jacket (need to rent of course) even though you can stand up to your waist for at least 100m out. We ended up walking across the small estuary to the next beach although when she was not around, there was a chiller younger guy as long as you entered the water 100m down the beach (left facing the ocean). Was very surprised that you had to rent the beach chair and parasol - other rentable items being volleyball and being taken on a tube (various but probably at a speed which would be for toddlers) or behind the driver on a jetski (seems like it is like that all over the island). Since the room was cheap, I suppose that they need to get the money back somehow but it kind of ruins it (add another Y500 to the price and include the chairs rather than incur the ill-will!) So the private beach was not as terrific as on the brochure but it was a nice view. Breakfast was as low as the cheapest minshuku but, again, price was low (make your own coffee in the room or go out to a breakfast joint after). Wi-Fi only in the lounge area which was a bit cheap of them. Front staff were polite and helpful. Location convenient for what we wanted to do.

“Secluded waterfront”

The staff were lovely and tried to help but have your google translator ready because no one spoke English . The location is just beautiful but quite secluded with nothing else nearby, if you want a coffee or a snack outside the hotel’s meal time, there’s nothing around, you’d have to take a bus or… more

The location is just beautiful but quite secluded with nothing else nearby, if you want a coffee or a snack outside the hotel’s meal time, there’s nothing around, you’d have to take a bus or taxi to one of the bigger names hotel. The room was Very clean and comfortable but there are no extra amenities in the hotel.

“Too small”

We only visited the beach but it's quite hard to call it beach cause it's more a handkerchief of sand. You have to park at the parking lot on the main road then go down a downhill only to stay in this tiny bay with nothing more than clear water. The beach isn't wide too so with the high tide the sp… more

You have to park at the parking lot on the main road then go down a downhill only to stay in this tiny bay with nothing more than clear water. The beach isn't wide too so with the high tide the space is very little.
