Pensionat i Hatoma

"Absolutely lovely hotel in Iriomote! Can't recommend it and the island enough! From the pristine and almost untouched beach right next to the hotel, to the events, helpful staff and nice facilities makes this a wonderful stay. You don't really need to think about anything here, it all just works. There is a bus shuttle from the boat when you check in, you don't need to reserve anything, it just works. We don't speak almost any japanese so we were a bit worried about having a hard time on Iriomote. But that couldn't have been further from truth. There might not have been that many staff that spoke english, but the ones that did were always on hand and could help us whenever we needed anything. They helped us book restaurants and acitivies as well as gave us helpful advice for getting around the island. As a summary, wonderful. Can't recommend it enough, from the complementary sparkling wine sessions in the sunset to the snorkeling activities that are available to book. If you are thinking about Iriomote and Hoshino, just book it! It is going to be lovely!"
