A Night on Taketomi Island Under a Sky Full of Stars

• 🌺A guesthouse set in the heart of Taketomi Island's village, lined with red-tiled roofs and white coral walls
• 🐃An island preserving Okinawa's original scenery, with water buffalo carts and white sand lanes still intact
• ⭐With few streetlights, the stars feel especially close once night falls

A Modest Exterior Behind Coral Stone Walls

• 🏡Coral stone walls and a single-story red-tiled building blend seamlessly into the island village scenery
• 🌿Several renovations have shaped a stay that feels neat and cared-for rather than worn
• 🚶Walk into the village from the harbor and you'll come upon the Je'taime sign

A Dormitory for Island Backpackers

• 🛏️Gender-separated dormitories with bunk beds make it easy for solo travelers to stay comfortably
• 🧊A shared refrigerator and microwave are free to use
• ❄️Air conditioning runs from evening onward, keeping tropical nights cool

A Semi-Private Room for Two

• 🚪The semi-private room, for up to 2 guests, suits couples and friends traveling together
• 🛋️It comes with a cozy sitting area furnished with a sofa and low wooden table
• 💡Quieter than the dormitory, yet still full of the guesthouse's distinctive charm

Shared Washroom with Mosaic Tile

• 🚿There's no hot spring, but the shared showers and washroom are kept spotlessly clean
• 🪸Shower rooms with monotone mosaic tiles laid one by one by craftsmen, and traditional Okinawan plaster walls, add island character
• 👩The interior is entirely non-smoking, and toilets and bathrooms are kept clean, so women travelers can stay with peace of mind

Yuntaku Time as the Night Deepens

• 🍹On clear nights, an hour or two of 'yuntaku', Okinawan-style chatting, gathers travelers together in the courtyard
• 🍶Eating, drinking and smoking are not allowed indoors, so snacks and drinks are enjoyed in the courtyard
• 🌙Swapping stories with strangers under the island night is the most special part of staying here

The Way from the Harbor to the Guesthouse

• ⛴️Take the high-speed ferry from Ishigaki Island and disembark at Taketomi Island's port to begin
• 🚐Tell the van parked to the left of the harbor lot 'to Je'taime' and it'll take you there for 200 yen
• 🚲On foot, pass the post office, turn right at the rental cycle shop, and it's about 300m to the door

There's no hot spring, no elaborate cuisine — but a night on Taketomi Island, spent among red-tiled roofs and coral stone walls, is special in its own right. On an island where water buffalo carts still pass by, share conversation at the yuntaku bar under a sky spilling over with stars.
