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.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
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.

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 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.

今回3世代で、宿泊いたしました。 メゾネットの部屋でしたので、2寝室あり エアコンの調整も各々出来て良かったです。 また2階から海、山の眺めが素晴らしいかった。 ただ一つ、トイレのウォシュレットは作動しなかったのは、残念。 朝食は、どれも美味しく、3日間ですが、飽きなかった。 夕食もコース以外のセット料理でも十分で、様子見てアラカルトを追加するつもりでしたが、必要がなく、 美味しく頂きました。 また、プール、海ではバスタオル、からシュノーケル用具一式をお借り出来たので 海遊びをとても楽しめました。 子供連れてには、お薦めのホテルです。

朝食がお値段手頃でとても美味しかったです。（今後値上げになるようですが、その値段でも利用すると思います）。予約の段階では予定していなかったのですが、とても良かったので次の日も利用させていただきました。部屋もおしゃれな感じでスタッフの方もとても感じが良かったです。季節的に利用できませんでしたが、次行くときにプールの不具合が直っていれば、夏にも利用してみたいです。子どもたちはロビーのブランコが気に入った様子です。お世話になりました。

設備の古さが気になる。浴槽が旧式タイプで、高さがあり跨ぐのが大変。また、ユニットバスの特性らしく、使用した水が、浴槽の外に流れ出、バスマットを水浸しにしたので、バスマットの配置に注意が必要。 フロント係が客の顔を覚えるのが苦手らしく、連泊しているのに、夕方、鍵を受け取る度に、新規で宿泊手続きをとられそうになった。
