When witnessing the traditional culture and the villages that the islanders have preserved on-site, even first-time visitors will feel at ease as they naturally permeate the culture. We can only wish for you to enjoy the scenery as it is inherently, without being bound by the framework of your trip at Hoshinoya Taketomi Island.
Hoshinoya Taketomi Island is a place that was built as another village on the island of Taketomi. These houses have been faithfully inheriting the standards of traditional/regional architecture, to the extent that the islanders who visit the island are pleasantly surprised. For example, in the belief that a cool breeze from the sea brings good luck, all rooms incorporated large open windows on the south side. There are 4 types of rooms: Zuki, which is ideal for a family stay. Gajoni, which features a modern and open bathtub. Kyangi, with Ryukyu Tatami (Okinawa traditional Tatami). Tonachi, is recommended for the elderly and children with its relaxed structure. Rest comfortably as if you were a resident of the island, surrendering to the island's slow pace. You can have an enjoyable travel experience that is not time-bound.
From sunrise to sundown, time on the island moves to rhythms that are slower and more soothing than what one is accustomed to. HOSHINOYA Taketomi Island offers early morning spa sessions designed to reset the mind and body by adjusting them to island time.
There is a large outdoor pool at the center of the town resort. Open 24/7 for you to enjoy a swim or sunbath.
