About

Ishigaki Island is the hub of the Yaeyama island chain in the far southwest of Japan — closer to Taiwan than to Tokyo, with a tropical climate, turquoise water, and a distinct Ryukyuan culture that predates Japanese rule. The Granvrio Resort commands a prime position above Kabira Bay, whose glass-bottom boat tours over shallow coral gardens and black pearl cultivation facilities are among Okinawa's most visited attractions. The hotel's facilities include outdoor pools overlooking the bay, Okinawan cuisine featuring goya, tofu, and locally caught seafood, and easy access to Yaeyama's diving, snorkeling, and kayaking. The resort style blends Southern Japanese architectural influences with tropical garden landscaping.
