Route Inn Grantia Ishigaki

The good things about this place are that there are lockers for diving equipment and there is a public bath where you can take a relaxing bath. It's also good to have local food for breakfast. And right in front of you, after the 1st floor public bath at Famima, you can immediately go and buy Orion beer.

It takes about 15 minutes to walk from the remote island terminal, but the road is quite bumpy and difficult when you roll your suitcase. Just a welcome drink or ice cream will fill your sense of accomplishment. I called for a taxi on the way back, but it was good to take one as it would come right away and get you to the remote island terminal in 1 meter. I stayed in a triple room, one with a sofa bed and a large suitcase that couldn't be fully opened. Everything else is normal.

I spent three nights in March 2025. ◆Room It felt a little too small to spread two suitcases. It was cleaned clean and I had everything I needed and was comfortable. We stayed for three nights and had one cleaning. On days when there was no cleaning, there was a bag of towels, toothbrushes, etc. hanging on the door, and used towels were placed in a container in front of the elevator. It was nice to see the sunset so far away from my room. ◆ Breakfast We stayed for three nights, but the content had changed and we never got bored and enjoyed it. Local dishes (champloo, yutofu, juicy, etc.) Hot spring eggs, bread, salads, yogurt, etc. ◆ Public bath Located on the ground floor, women enter after entering the code they get when they check in. There are eight washrooms and two hot tubs, but the dressing room felt small. There are makeup removers, lotions, brushes, and swabs. ◆Location There is a Family Mart in front of you, which is convenient for shopping. The remote island terminal can be reached in about 10 minutes on foot. Complimentary shuttle bus service from the airport available (reservation required by 6pm the day before) ◆Service As it was a reservation from the official website, it was a little discount and I got 6 coins (3 nights for 2 people) to use at the drink vending machine at check-in. Drinks (Sanpin tea, coffee, etc.) and hot water ice cream were also available in the lobby, making it comfortable. The value for money was very good. I still want to use it when I go to a remote island.
