Only one regret is the taste of the food in the morning buffet. It’s too sweet and boring. The material of the food is good. Hope the shelf learns the taste.

Kind staff, beautiful island setting, relaxing

The staff was really, REALLY NICE and made our stay here quite memorable. This is an older (not a luxury) property, so consider that, but it includes some nice amenities: airport transport, pool, bicycles, proximity to dive shop and water. The breakfast buffet was yummy and generous, accommodating both Asian and Western tastes, and served in an airy space. Again, thanks to the staff for making it so pleasant!

Great hotel, is clean, the staff are very friendly and helpful, even though our Japanese wasn’t great, their breakfast is great and overall is a great place to stay in Amami. You will definitely need to rent a car where ever you stay in Amami because it makes everything a lot easier to get around the Island. Thank you to all the staff at the Hotel Caretta, we loved Amami and we felt very welcomed.

The Hotel is in a great location near the bay. Snorkling/diving available and some good restaurants nearby. They offer some snorkling and vest gear, as well as bikes for free. The breakfast buffet had a variety of options. They didn't have the hot tube open which is my only complaint since it was colder weather, and it would have been nice to use.

The hotel is very near one of Atami's many beautiful beaches. I stayed in the annex building, which needed some better upkeep. It appeared that the main building was nicer. The tropics certainly have more bugs! But generally, Hotel Caretta was a nice stay. The hot tub was nice, along with the breakfast. The pool was not heated.

Although the property was old and needed a lot of renovation the room was cleaned. We booked room with breakfast. We stayed for four nights and had same breakfast everyday. The food was no refilled so if you don’t go early there are only leftovers. Female staff were fairly nice but there were few male receptionist who were quite unhelpful and rude. One good thing was they had lots of free rental equipment.

別館に子連れで宿泊させていただきました。 2歳の子連れだったのもありますが、和室で広く布団もマットレスが入っており、快適に過ごせました！ またプールサイドにも浮き輪などたくさんあったり、無料レンタル品もたくさんありすごくありがたかったです！ 目の前の海では大人はシュノーケリングや子供は腕に付ける浮き輪・小さいバケツ等をお借りして海を堪能できました！ フロントには常にスタッフの方が常駐してくださり、不明点などすぐに聞けたり、夜の寝かしつけの際にベビーカーをすぐに借りれたりとても助かりました！ 駐車場もフロントから近く、部屋へも行きやすく荷物の出し入れもしやすかったです！ 小ヤギさん達がお散歩してたり、ほっこりできました！ 夜ご飯もお部屋まで持ってきてもらえて子連れなのでとても助かりました！ 初日にチェックイン後お部屋に行くと冷房をつけておいてくださり、入ってすぐに涼しく過ごせました！ 歩いてすぐに海があり、シュノーケリングショップも目の前で、初めての奄美旅行をとても楽しめたのはこちらのホテルのおかげです！ ありがとうございました！
