Megijima Island Guesthouse & cafe Megino

Great place in front of the beach and with wonderful staff. Services and food are great. I’ve been here for several times and surely will go back. Totally recommend this place

The position of the guesthouse right on the beach, the warmth and hospitality of the hosts, the feeling of staying somewhere a bit unique.

It wasn’t really a problem, but the last ferry being at 6.10pm, meant we felt we couldn’t go out for dinner in Takamatsu.

With due respect to the good people of Takamatsu and surroundings, how can you not enjoy the pleasure of a quasi paradise when you have Megijima only 20 minutes away from your shores? And, more specifically, how can you not make the Megijima Island Guesthouse & cafe Megino your favourite hangout place on the island? Look no further if you want a warm, cozy atmosphere, only a few steps away from the beach. The decor is one of fine simplicity, with an authentic homey touch. The friendly managers - a mixed Japanese/German couple - will go out of their way to cater to your particular (peculiar?) tastes and wishes. As a vegetarian, I was given a special treatment with home-made dishes - although I could have chosen yummy pizzas and pasta from the regular menu. Both are seasoned travellers, which is an asset when accommodating guests from all walks of life: they deal with competence and patience with the questions you may have, notably regarding the things to do and sights to see on the island. Well, if you deem I am waxing it lyrical, I suggest you go and check for yourself: you won't regret the trip!

This is a small guesthouse right on the beach. You can walk out the front door and be on the beach in 30 seconds. There is outdoor seating, a roof terrace, nice common area with a wood burning stove and the use of a fridge. You can also have dinner and breakfast included in your stay. The food is really good. There are only three rooms, so you won't be fighting for space in the common area. The double rooms come with sea views. You can leave your luggage here, before check in or after check out. When you get off the ferry, turn right, walk up the beach, past the house with Greek columns to the orange building, it's maybe a ten minute walk. There is a post office and various cafes on the island. Most cafes, including Megino are open 11.00 - 15.00.

Nothing, would stay again very happily.

The dinner and breakfast were superb. The guest house is located right on the beach. Satomi and Toto who run the guest house are really nice and very hospitable. It was actually my second stay there, so that says something!
