HOSHINOYA Taketomi Island is a luxury resort on Taketomi. Red-tile, single-story villas follow the Taketomi Island Charter that protects the island's landscape. Guests can see the village after the day-trippers leave and the night sky with few street lights.
Ferries and timing are in Ishigaki Port Ferry Terminal; the island itself is on the Taketomi Island page.
