Accomodations were simple, but had everything we needed. Nice rooftop, shower, good wi-fi service, living room with many great books about Zamami and the history of Okinawa. A bit musty when I stayed there in June. But Yoshi who runs the place, is really nice, accomodating and friendly. There is little reminder of the horrors of WWII today and the... More

Like everything on Zamami, this place is very laid-back and accommodating. The rooms are quite large for the price, with shared bathroom and toilet facilities. Clean and comfortable, there's very little to fault. Our host is friendly and always up for a chat (my friend has high level Japanese proficiency but our host has basic working English). The streets of... More

Great location, 2 blocks from the pier. Super nice owner, insisted on giving us a ride to the pier b/c of our luggage even though it was only 2 blocks away and we had plenty of time to walk. Accomodations were simple, but had everything we needed: wireless, aircon, fan. Did not have a musty smell, and everything smelled fresh.... More

Really nice owner, the nicest Island/location. Really clean and cute Japanese rooms! Recommend highly!!!! Roof on top for relaxing, the view is spectacular. This Island is worth the detour! The place is clean and you are staying in a traditional place. The room has AC and a fan, windows and the public bathrooms are clean. You can book with no... More

I stumbled on this guest house after traveling to Zamami with the intention of camping, and changed at the last min after realising it would actually cost a similar amount. Firstly the location (although a little hard see at first) is amazing, right in the village and on the sea front. There is a supermarket and a few restaurants and... More

Finding a well-priced accommodation on Zamami where the operator spoke English was a victory in of itself, but we also discovered how nice the operator was. Yoshi is incredibly nice and very willing to help. This really showed through when we had to cancel our final night's sleep at the last minute to ensure we got off the island before... More
