Close to ecotours, cave exploring, and more, this family-friendly vacation home brings it all within reach. Hirakubo Beach is just a short walk away, so you can leave your car at the property, which offers uncovered onsite parking, or jump in your vehicle to make short work of the 3-minute drive to Ishigaki Sunset Beach.

After you return, unwind in the garden or sip a drink by the firepit, and don't forget about the outdoor furniture and children's pool. For a change of scenery, come inside and try your hand at table tennis, or enjoy the free WiFi and TV.

This 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom rental features a BBQ grill, firewood, luggage storage, and climate-controlled air-conditioning. Bathroom amenities include a hair dryer, a toilet with electronic bidet, and free toiletries. Prepare a home-cooked meal in the kitchenette, complete with a stovetop and a refrigerator, as well as a coffee maker, an electric kettle, and a microwave. And because there's a washer/dryer, you can go a bit lighter on your packing.
