An exceptional, highly efficient hostel perfectly situated at the midpoint of the Shimanami Kaido on Omishima Island, right next to the Tatara Bridge.
Hostels are usually very consistent in Japan, but one area where they often fall short is the air conditioning. I Link did a pretty good job on that front.

An old family-run ryokan, over 70 years old, overlooking the port.
Ask for a large room on 3rd floor which is big, has lots of bedding, basin, fridge, water heater, tea set, tv. AC etc.

Atsuko was very welcoming and accomodating. They know the area well and had recommendations for things to do or place to eat at, if needed. We felt very at home in their humble residence.
We were greeted by a warm host who drove us to another onsen 5km away over other side of Omishima when nearby bath-house at the Dome was closed.
The lady owner welcomed us very nicely and even offered us to go to the local onsen — a lovely evening — our bicycles were safe in a garage.

Stayed one night before doing the Shimanami Kaido Cycling. My wife first told me she had booked us into a 2 star hotel and not to expect much. Hotel is located about 150m from the train Station.
Rooms: Dated but well equipped including new fittings in the unit bath in my room. What they lack, they more than make up with good service attitude. However, the bed was just too soft.
This hotel was perfect for a quick 1 night stay after doing the shimanami kaido cycle and returning the bikes at the imabari station.
The reception was fine, and so was the rooms.
We stayed here for one night after completing the Shimanami Kaido bike ride. The staff were friendly and it was close to the train station.
It was perfect for what we needed. Clean hotel, very close to the station, shops and bike return. Friendly staff and all amenities provided. Comfy bed and good view. A bit outdated but in good shape.

If I could give Wakka 6 stars I would. We booked our bike rentals and hotel stay with Wakka and they took care of everything.
Let me tell you a story…
Me and my sister had reserved a hotel on the bunny island nearby, only to be turned away at the port after a 35 mile bike ride due to bad weather.
Our stay in Wakka was one of the best highlights of our Japan trip. We decided to split cycling the Shimanami Kaido into 2 days and we’re glad that we booked this place to stay.

I had a good stay at Cafe Sando. The check in was smooth. They have spared toothbrush, earplugs, and blankets. The sink was very clean. Room is tiny but enough. The soundproof was great.
We only ate at the Cafe, as we were staying at the Ryokan down the street. The food and drinks were great! Such diversity on the menu, all cooked so well! And nice it was open late!

This place is an absolute gem! After finishing the Shimanami Kaido, I stayed here for 2 nights. It’s on a separate island (Ushima) and is accessible via the Kurushima Bridge (halfway down).
I searched for glamping, but since it was cold, I ended up staying at GLAMPROOK Shimanami, which also has a hotel building.
Stayed glamping at the end of December.
Overall, it was a good and memorable trip ☺

By far the most beautiful accommodation we’ve stayed at on our trip. The staff was very accommodating and every detail of the place was well thought out.
This is such a great place to stay with very kind people. We stayed as part of our cycle on the Shimanami Kaido. The kitchen is perfect and there’s a convenience store close by bike.
I’ve been to Japan twice and this is probably the best housing I’ve ever stayed in. Such a great, natural, traditional feel but also modern at the same time.
Good place, in a very quiet shopping arcade street!
I was the only one staying in the room, probably because it was December 28th! But, I digged the style and the owner was very welcoming.
Great location after the shimanami kaido to crash and rest up. Got a whole room with a great fouton to myself and free access to come and go through the stores shutter throughout the day / night.
