"Sea Friend Hotel on Tokashiki Island was an incredible place to stay and truly enhanced my Kerama Islands experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff were warm, welcoming, and genuinely helpful, making island travel feel effortless and relaxed. The location is fantastic—close to Aharen Beach and surrounded by stunning natural scenery. The room was clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, offering everything I needed after a day of swimming, snorkeling, or exploring the island. Waking up to the peaceful island atmosphere was a highlight in itself. One of the standout features was how easy Sea Friend made everything. Ferry coordination, beach access, snorkeling support, and meals were all smooth and stress-free. The food was delicious and satisfying, especially after long days in the sun. If you’re looking for a place that combines comfort, convenience, and authentic island hospitality, Sea Friend Hotel is an excellent choice. I would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Tokashiki Island."

"The staff were so kind and hospitable. The room was quiet, comfortable and had a great balcony with a view of the port/bay. Zamami Island is one of the most beautiful sites I’ve ever seen, and this hotel was the perfect place to stay."

"lovely staff :)"

"Wonderful stay - excellent amenities and staff. The vibe was very chilled. So relaxing. "

"This was one of the best experiences we have had traveling! The staff was so friendly and so nice and willing to help with everything we needed. The breakfasts and dinners were fantastic. The hotel was also an easy two minute walk from Aharen beach and less than that for a walk to the store and island restaurants. Couldn’t recommend this more! We will hopefully make our way back here some day in the future."

"Good experience overall. It is a wodden cabin in the jungle. 20 minutes walk from the beach. The host is very helpful. He gave us rides to and from the beaches whenever we asked for it, Gave us all the information when our ferry got canceled drove us to and from the ferry terminal....etc"

"Loved this guest house! The room is nice and the guest house has common showers and bathroom as well as a common kitchen where you can store whatever you need in the fridge or freezer, which ended up being very handy as almost every store closes before 6pm.. they also offer food there in case you couldn’t get any and I found that very thoughtful. They also offer snorkel rental for 1000yen and is definitely worth it!"
