St. Maire Zamami has been one of the best places I’ve ever stayed at. They welcome you at the port and drive you to the resort front door, it’s really close by but it’s appreciated, especially if you have a large luggage. You get a welcome drink, you get to choose a complimentary bath and shower kit, and you also get to pick your first breakfast time and menu before being taken to your room. Rooms are spacious, clean, modern and elegant, with nice views over the port area. Breakfast is prepared fresh for you every day, and you always get to choose the time and the menu for the next day. You can have it both indoor and outdoor. Quality is very high. Staff is super friendly and helpful, it really felt like a family taking care of you, I have kept ‘bothering’ them with many requests and they have always helped me, from suggestions on what to visit to where to eat for lunch and dinner. I HIGHLY recommend having them suggest and book dinner restaurants for you every single day because there aren’t many options and they tend to get full quickly. If you walk in either direction from the resort you will end up in 2 beautiful beaches, I suggest visiting both, especially the west one for amazing breathtaking sunset views. The resort provides you with beach towels and snorkeling masks if necessary. The closest observation deck is Takatsukiyama and I recommend visiting it, you can easily walk to it in around 15-20 minutes and you will have amazing views, plus a nice patio to relax at. Around town you will find many snorkeling and similar activities tours options, and you also have the possibility to rent bikes or scooters.

The service was awesome, every request was made in no time, nice place and good breakfast, totally recommend!

The room is very tidy and clean! And staff are very friendly as well ! We got a good rest in here ! Btw the restaurant in the hotel is amazing!

Kerama Blue Resort was absolutely fantastic. While it’s located a bit further from the main Zamami Port, this actually turned out to be a real advantage. Staying here allowed us to explore parts of the island that we would never have discovered if we had stayed near the port. The team at the resort is young, kind, and incredibly attentive to all your needs. Several shuttles go back and forth daily between the resort and the port, and it’s also possible to rent scooters, bicycles, or even a car to explore the island at your own pace. One of the absolute highlights of our stay was a snorkeling and fishing trip with Nari. He takes you out on his boat to explore the turquoise waters around the islands, and shows you stunning fish and marine life. He’s an amazing person, genuinely passionate about what he does. I highly recommend booking a tour with Nari, even if you’re not staying at Kerama Blue. It’s one of the most incredible experiences I’ve had in my life, and you’ll come away with unforgettable memories. Thank you to the whole team for making our stay so special!

The staff were amazing and even let us into the room early

Quiet and peaceful location. Amazing snorkeling tour in the bay! Great breakfast and dinner buffet. Staff was friendly and helpful :)

It was really clean and everything you needed was there. Beautiful sun terrace on the top. Right near the ferry terminal. Amazing staff. The receptionist Naa who looked after us was so helpful.

Wonderful stay at Tokashiki island. My third visit actually. One minute from breathtaking Aharen beach. Staff is extremely lovely, welcoming, caring and professional. Rooms very simple 4.5 tatami rooms. Very maritime activity orientated. Breakfast and dinner was lovely too! I definitely come back again.

I loved how welcoming and hospitable the hosts were. I was picked up from Aka Port with my luggage and saved from a rain-soaked walk to the accommodation. Once settled, I was also given a lot of great advice to make the most of my time on the island, where to rent a bike, where to go for a drink in the evening, and the best beach to spot sea turtles. Not only was the place great, but the hosts made my time on the island even better. If I ever get the chance to go back, I'd happily stay here again.

The villa is absolutely beautiful and very spacious (big for western standards). The decor is stunning, with a full loungeroom, dining room, and kitchen. The beds are very comfortable and the bathroom is excellent. The owners met us at the ferry and also drove us back when we left, and were extremely kind and easy to communicate with. The villa is really close (about 5 minute walk) to Aharen beach, and just around the corner for the general store and restaurants. We loved our stay and highly recommend it to everyone. We would absolutely stay here in this beautiful place again.
