Miyako Resort Shima Bayside Terrace

This is an amazing seaside resort hotel with a great view facing the bay. The mediteranian architectural buildings are so great and remarkable. Take a walk through the cascading landscape and we will find an amazing scenery ... Few years before, this resort known as Prime Resort Kashikojima. Rooms are spacious, clean and comfortable. Have a large terrace to relax and enjoy the fresh air ... Well maintained hotel facilities and clean public area. There is a fountain garden in the center. Also a big pool with a stairway down to the seaside.

The view from the hotel is beautiful and the rooms are clean, minus a few crabs, spiders and centipedes. This resort is dated but that enhanced the old European theme! Breakfast was included with our room option however our children preferred waffles from the nearby coffee shop. Lots of attractions within a 45 minute drive. We were not satisfied with the size of our first “Sea view room,” so we switched without an additional fee. Our second room, also Sea view, was much larger with tile floors and exposed wood beams. Breakfast was good and the staff was courteous. The Miyako Resort Shima Bayside was a good choice for our family’s getaway and different from the typical Japanese hotels. Negative- not enough food options for children and the poolside cafe was closed during our stay.

3 Stars for style, location and charm. Reservations and check in were very smooth. The hotel has a European/Spanish look and feel. The staff does not speak English. The facilities were basic and good pool. The restaurants and (sort of) café were WAY over priced (fail). The night pool had a standard price of 1800 yen per drink! Using the COVID as an excuse not to have Karaoke or the nice gym open didn't make much sense....since those businesses are open outside the resort. There were no water activities offered...right on the water..no canoes, jet skis, floaties...nothing. Expected more for the price! (Fail) And finally, the parking situation was inconvenient...1. Not enough spaces and no options late at night, had to park on the grass...2. There was a back door to the main parking they kept locked...so you have to walk through the entire hotel (150 yds.), then back down the street (another 150 yds.) when people in the courtyard rooms were less than 50 yards from parking through that door!! (Fail) As for the area, very beautiful...lots of nature. many good places to see and local eateries that were a great bargain and had delicious sea food!
