The house
HiltonPlayful island resort
Communal game areas and an all-weather rooftop day club give this waterfront stay an energetic, informal rhythm.
What it’s good at
Listed
HBA interiors incorporate works by Japanese artists against ocean-facing floor-to-ceiling glass.
Listed
A twelfth-floor infinity pool heated year-round overlooks the East China Sea and Irabu Bridge.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Sunset Beach sits a short walk away, and the restaurants of central Hirara are a short drive across the bay.
The rooms
Floor-to-ceiling windows let in coastal light, and original pieces by Japanese artists hang beside the beds.
The rooftop pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Woven daybeds sit directly in the water along the edge, cooled in summer and heated for winter swimming.
The whirlpool and spa
A circular whirlpool sits on the rooftop deck. Downstairs, upuka spa draws on local botanical oils and singing bowls.
At the table
The Ma-Sans Beach House serves local Miyako beef by the ocean-facing bar, and Chiikii grills wagyu over open flames.

The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.

A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
