Hali Hali House and the hosts hold a special place in my heart after just a two night stay. The bus stops conveniently down the road and upon arrival in the lush manicured garden I was greeted by the gracious hosts and shown the property. Despite the language barrier, she was very patient with me and it was a non issue to understand each other. I chose the tatami room for a traditional experience and I am very pleased with the accommodations. I had the best sleep I’ve had in such a long time....

This is a small scale luxury property with the kindest and most attentive staff. The hotel only has 6 rooms, so you will feel like you have the whole place to yourself. The food was incredible!! The beach you have access to is unmatched, with very calm waters. It might as well be a pool. There is onsite parking and the rooms are very large and air conditioned. I 100% recommend.

As a solo travel staying for just a few nights, this was a very convenient and welcoming hotel! The staff were extremely friendly, the breakfast was delicious, the beach was close enough to walk to and the free bicycle rental made for a lovely ride to enjoy a night on the town!

Wonderful time at The Art. Buffets were reasonably priced with good variety. They had an all you can drink alcohol for 1,500yen or under $10 for 60 minutes. Pool was nice and the tour desk booked a great tour of Iriomote for us.
