“Memorable experience in nature”

My favorite thing was that it was an experience and not just a place to sleep. The place is surrounded by nature, very green, the beach(es) are nearby and the area is sooo peaceful ☺️ at the same time I didn’t miss any comforts, the kitchen is really good, bed is comfy, airco works perfectly. Shizuka really made me feel welcomed and gave me the best tips to explore the island. She left fresh flowers every day and treated me to some local specialties. Not to mention she took me on a little excursion. Great for longer stays for sure.

Lovely hospitality, beautiful little location and has everything you need for a quiet break away from it all

“Quiet and cosy stay far from the urban noise and bustle”

Loved the quiet location, very cosy and clean room. Very accessible to the beach (< 10 minute walk), and a great spot for star gazing. We really appreciated the well equipped kitchen facilities. Above all, we loved our host Shizuka! She was very warm and welcoming, and lovely to talk to.

I can’t recommend this enough. We truly loved our stay at Shizukas place. The location is perfect, there are some restaurants in walking distance and a wonderful (private) beach, with just no other people around. The patio and the garden are so tranquil and peaceful, the perfect place to calm down and relax. Nevertheless, the most amazing about this place is Shizuka and her welcoming and kind hospitality. She made our Ishigaki trip the most special. During check in she shares lot of helpful information, so there is no need to stress about anything. She gave us great recommendations and made our dinner reservations. To enjoy Ishigaki to the fullest, it’s advisable to rent a car!

“A small slice of paradise”

Shizuka’s place is secluded, away from any hustle and bustle, and offers everything required for a relaxing stay. The amenities are simple but more than sufficient, and it is really the location and the host herself who make this such an exceptional stay. There is a private beach a few minute walk from the property with the most beautiful sunsets. Shizuka made us feel so very welcome, she was extremely friendly and we loved meeting her goats! There are several cute restaurants within walking distance. We strongly recommend this place to anyone who likes to travel off the beaten path - we had a wonderful time!

A nice change from an hotel.Space.Outdoor areas.Lovely garden.Cooking facilities. Rural and quiet. Walk to best swimming beach in Ishigaki. Good restaurants nearby. Great location to access this beautiful island. Attentive host..

“Best place ever!”

The room was very spacious and beautifully decorated. The garden terrace was amazing and Shizuka made our stay even more memorable. If I could, I would rate this place 100/10.

“Our stay at 435 was wonderful mostly thanks to Shizuka who took so well care of us. Made us feel at home. So helpful and”

“A slice of paradise in Ishigaki - highly recommend!”

Where to even begin.. Shizuka is such a pure and genuine soul. We absolutely loved staying with her. What makes a trip memorable is not only the places you visit, but the people you meet. Shizuka is such a person. She has chosen to share her slice of paradise with (international) travelers and we couldn't be more grateful. The homestay is comfortable, tastefully decorated and included all the amenities you could ask for - including guidebooks and local recommendations. Shizuka took her time showing us the property and the facilities. She even made a welcome platter for us with local snacks! Every day, we were greeted with the most beautiful fresh flowers from her garden. When we visited (January 2025), she had two cute baby goats (Linda-chan & Emma-chan). Her garden is a real treasure, with local herbs and fruits. We slept fantastic, since it was very quiet. The local beach around the corner is stunning. It is also the place where my partner proposed to me, making this trip even more memorable. From the bottom of our hearts - thank you Shizuka! We hope to see you again, in Ishigaki or in Luxembourg.

“Don't miss this wonderful stay!”

We have traveled the world and stayed in many Airbnbs over the years, and out of all of them, this one is our favorite. The room fits the island relaxed feeling and has a unique style, with everything that is needed. The separate bathroom and kitchen is convenient as well. The shining gem of our entire stay was Shizuka, who explained many things we could do on the island, gave advice, showed us her cute goat, and even surprised us with some very tasty snacks!!! She is really fun to talk to. We hope to visit this wonderful place again someday!

The house felt warm and welcoming, with a very cozy vibe to it. There were goats on site which were adorable to pet, as well as to walk in the evenings (we even got to do it by the beach !). Shizuka, the property owner, was the sweetest most welcoming host we’ve ever had and she made sure that every day of our stay was perfect. At the beginning of the stay, Shizuka was nice enough to guide us through everything we can do on the island, including souvenirs, sightseeing spots, etc. There is a private beach 4m walk from the house, on which you rarely find anyone and most of the time you are completely alone which feels like a paradise. In case there are people, all you need to do is to walk 1m right or left (either direction) and there it is… another private beach all to yourself. Additionally, you can rent a BBQ from Shizuka for 1500¥ and she will provide all the sauces, including Japanese traditional ones. Finally, at night, you can see a spectacular view of the Milky Way, if you are by car, then a 2m drive from the village is enough from all the lights and on foot maybe 5m.

“A rustic realistic home stay experience.”

This Property is best described as a home stay. Sizjucka was just an amazing host and went out of her way to make our stay enjoyable. She took us to see Fireflies and arranged restaurant and kayaking for us and brought us little food treats. All areas were spotless.

“An amazing nest in Ishigaki”

Shizuka was so nice, she made me feel at home and taught me so many things about the island. She shares a lot it was hard to leave.

The property is located in a lovely, quiet part of the island and has a beautiful garden. It’s a real paradise for nature and wildlife lovers. The host, Shizuka, could not have been kinder or more helpful. She helped us make restaurant reservations (a must during low season), book activities and had lots of great suggestions for things to do. Flipper the cat was also a delight! The property was clean, cozy and has all the amenities you could need including the option to rent a BBQ on the terrace which we loved. We hope to come back again soon.

A lovely place to stay if you like nature, beaches and relaxing. Very helpful, funny and kind owner! Would love to go back and will! Thank you for the fun time!

“Amazing! Shizuka is the kindest host and the location is beautiful.”

Shizuka was amazing! So kind and helpful. Everything you needed was there. The BBQ is also great!

“Honeymoon in Ishigaki”

This guesthouse is really unique and particular. It was located pretty far from airport and Ishigaki port (30/40 min by car)...yes you need a rental car...but if you are looking for a place to relax and experience the natural and savage part of the island, 435 is perfect for you. The hosts were amazing, they gave us a lot of information and brought us fresh fruits every morning. The house had a parking spot for our car and the room had a private patio we used for breakfast and dinner. The house is equipped with fridge, kitchen, microwave...
