The staff was really friendly and provided a shuttle service to and back from the beach when we needed it. The food was amazing, the chef is quite skilled.

Tokashiki is a piece of paradise on earth and staying at Kanaloa was the best decision I made when booking this escapade. Initially planning to stay for 3 nights, I extended for 2 more and had to stop there because I had to go home, otherwise I could have easily spent another week at this place. The staff whole staff was absolutely amazing. Always available, super caring and exceptionally professional. The owner fell in love with the island when he came to visit it during a school trip during his youth. He worked hard to buy and renovate a building in Tokashiki and make it this amazing place to stay in. He is truly passionate and impressively wears many hats throughout the day, and I fully admire his commitment to his dream. Location: Literally 2min walk away from the ferry port, so no need for transfers. 3min walk away from the only supermarket on the island. Multiple transfers are arranged everyday to take you to and from the two main beaches of the island (prefer Tokashiku for a more quiet experience). Room: Clean and fully equipped with everything you might need for your stay. It could be tight for 2 people but it is the usual size you'd expect for a Japanese hotel. Traveling alone, I had plenty of room for myself. Restaurant: You'll notice that there aren't many places to go to for dinner around the island, but you won't need that. The hotel's restaurant is grand. The menu is varied, the ingredients super fresh and the food is amazing. I honestly wasn't that hungry during my stay but I would always get more food than needed because everything was so delicious! Also, DO get the breakfast option as you won't have many outside of the hotel, and the care that you will be receiving here is unmatched. The Japanese one is exquisite, with a fresh piece of fish every morning, as well as an assortment of local delicacies. I will 100% be back. After a month of traveling around the country, this was by far my favorite place to be in.

I had the most wonderful stay! The hotel itself is really lovely, with clean spacious rooms with gorgeous views overlooking the water. I was there as a solo traveller during the off-season and felt incredibly well taken care of. All the staff are so kind, friendly and thoughtful. Unfortunately I don't speak Japanese, but one of the staff members speaks English and was very helpful for organising logistics. The hotel restaurant was closed for the Winter, but the hotel has regular shuttle buses to take you to and from the main port where the restaurants and beaches are (note it is a decent walk to the main port, probably 20 minutes over the hill, pleasant in November but I could imagine it would be more taxing in the heat). I was also able to book an amazing snorkelling tour through the hotel. After check-out, the staff were also kind enough to hold my luggage and drop it off at the port before the ferry departed, so I could spend the day at the beach without my suitcase! There is also car and e-bike hire available for reasonable prices. Being there in the off-season when a lot of the tourist services were closed, it was so helpful staying somewhere where I felt all my needs were taken care of. The included traditional Japanese breakfast was also DELICIOUS and very generous! I would highly recommend it!

The view, the staff, the facilities, the convenience - everything was amazing! My room was beautiful and the hotel is moments from the dock. I rented an eScooter from them and got to tour the most amazing sights, then had an amazing dinner here in the evening! The staff were super-friendly, patient, and helpful, and made a foreign traveller feel very welcome on their island! Worth every yen!

I had an amazing time at this hotel! The staff are truly exceptional, everyone I interacted with was friendly, attentive, and went out of their way to make my stay perfect. The facilities are excellent and make for a very comfortable experience. I loved how convenient everything was, the hotel is just a one-minute walk from the beach, and they even offer snorkelling equipment for rent as well as an outdoor shower to rinse off after a day in the sea. They offer breakfast and dinner, both delicious and varied. It was also a great opportunity to discover new dishes. I highly recommend this place. It’s the perfect spot for a relaxing and enjoyable stay.

Oh my god. The food, the beach, the staff. Everything was amazing! I cannot emphasize enough how delicious the food was! Big japanese dishes with lots of sides! Leaves you very full and happy :) The staff was super friendly and helpful. We had to leave early due to a storm which they informed us about. It meant we had to cut our vacation short, unfortunately. I wish I could have stayed longer!

Loved the room, was very spacious and comfortable, and very close to the beach! They also offer scuba diving, but just be aware that none of their instructors speak English (or very very limited English anyway). Free breakfast is included, and they had a wide range of good food - veggie options too! Water pressure was very good too.

There was no breakfast. Service as outstanding. Super clean and convenient location.

Fantastic place, hosts are so wonderful, we got caught by massive storm while being at Furuzamami and had to leave bikes from Yenn's Marina there due to heavy conditions, as were offered a ride by car by some locals, hosts pick the bikes later by themselves. Tastefull breakfast and just two houses away from very good restaurant, rooms are very clean and spacious. Thank you for your hospitality.

Location was great, everything in the town is within a 5 minute cycle. Bicycles can be hired close to the property
