A centrally located part of the Shigira Seven Mile Resort, the Hotel Shigira Mirage serves up excellent Japanese service and high quality food in a semi-tropical surrounding a five minute walk to the beach.
Beach itself is protected from the open ocean so was very tranquil while I was there, shallow and suitable for wading or snorkeling. The dive shop also does an Experience Scuba program for Japanese-speaking beginners. PADI or other diving license holders looking for more challenging fare need to contact external providers. Nicest beaches on island are a 15-30 drive away.
Hotel itself has a restaurant (divided into teppanyaki, hot pot, steak and tempura specialty sections and a separate bar/lounge. There are other restaurants in the resort. All are open or closed based on number of guests/Corona situation) (April 2021).
Rooms are spacious and well-maintained, likely built or renovated a few years ago. For example, our standard room has two large flat screens (which is nice), but neither are internet capable so you are stuck watching Japanese tv unless you’ve brought a Chromecast or AppleTV.
I speak Japanese so can’t comment on staff English level.
The wider resort contains a golf course as well as other hotels at different price points (some are super luxury, some are older Bubble Era mass market properties) that are accessible by shuttle bus, golf cart rental, or on foot.
