Pension Sainantan

Simple pension-style lodging not far from (but not actually at) the southernmost (reachable) point in Japan. The hotel’s name translates as southernmost point which is stretching it a little bit but the beach here is spectacular and not at all crowded. A snorkeler said he saw a turtle meters from the white sand beach. Be aware that there are no shops to speak of anywhere near here so it’s pretty isolated. Rent an electric bicycle at the ferry port and you can explore the whole island.

I loved this place. I will definitely be back. The beach is only minutes away. The staff were so friendly and helpful. The view from the second floor is wonderful. I loved that there were notebooks in the rooms for people to write in. We were in 201. Two meals (dinner and breakfast) are provided in the 9,000jpy/night price. Excellent meals. You can use the facilities even after checking out. They have showers for you after you come back from snorkeling or just lying around on the beach. Shampoo, Conditioner, and Body Soap are provided. They also shuttle you back and forth to the ferry port. So kind and thoughtful.

I can wholeheartedly recommend a stay at Pension Sainantan. The staff is super friendly and the owner went out of his way to find an accommodation for me. Both dinner and breakfast are included and are delicious. The location near the beach, the rooftop to watch the stars at night and the bicycles make a stay here not only worthwhile but also very enjoyable! 5 stars! :)

We stayed there for our honeymoon and although a pension it was such a lovely spot. They also have a rooftop terrace with spectacular views of the beach and sea and well if the sky is clear a splendid stargazing just from there.||You can swim there and we even saw sea turtles in the reef. ||The staff was very attentive and friendly even the other guests we made great memories there.

very good

Good view. Good dinner

Best location, good facility!

綺麗な浜辺が広がる場所にあるペンション 船着場まで歩ける距離ではあるが送迎をしてもらえるので荷物が多くても大丈夫。 夕食、朝食とも定食スタイルであっさりとした味付けで優しい感じ。 オリオン生と地元の泡盛が美味しい😋 夜は雲で星が見えず。風が強くうるさくてあまり眠れない。でもゆっくり出来ました。
