Staying in Club InterContinental Lounge at ANA InterContinental Ishigaki Resort

Thank you for visiting the Umemi blog

Afternoon tea at club lounge

We did check-in while enjoying afternoon tea at the club lounge

Room

The room was Club InterContinental Deluxe Room

Actually, this was my second stay at this Club InterContinental Lounge. I chose this hotel again because I loved the comfort of the room The bed is the best, I slept the best, compared to other hotels on this trip 💨

After taking a walk or relaxing in the room, it’s cocktail time now

We can’t drink alcohol, so enjoyed non-alcoholic cocktails ✨

Morning

As you see on the right side, you can enjoy golf (short golf course), if you want 🏌

You can use the club lounge or SALTIDA. Since I have used SALTIDA before, I had breakfast at the lounge this time

Buffet table

You can have main dishes as well

They are free refills

Japanese-style main dishes

Eggs Benedict French

It was filled with spinach and mushrooms, having truffle on the top!
This was impressively delicious 🤤 and the best dish in the breakfast 🐾

They have a wide variety of fresh juices, milk, soy milk, smoothies, etc. The staff’s top picks are the three types of freshly squeezed mango, pineapple, and orange juice

The freshly squeezed orange juice was flavored with crushed pieces and is delicious.
I also liked the melon and banana danish ♥

Today’s morning special was Tortilla

It had an Asian taste. They were all delicious

Freshly squeezed pineapple and mango juice ♥

Today’s hot sweets were pancakes

They were thick and fluffy！

Eggs Benedict French Italian

The prosciutto was a bit too salty for me. I should have eaten it first..

I’m full now, and I can’t eat anymore.
I ate more than my husband 💦
That’s how delicious the breakfast was ♥

Thank you for the meal

After lounging around in the room until check-out at noon, I headed to the airport ✈

Something to say

• The club lounge was not well staffed. We sometimes had to wait for a while because they didn’t pay much attention to customers. And some staff members didn’t remember the menus well, and we needed to repeat our orders.
• Previously, after checking in, we received a gift of original soap as a club benefit. This time, the soap was left, but there was no explanation about it. Their website says there would be an introduction of original soap from a soap sommelier. Only those who talked about it may receive a present, but I don’t really understand 🤔
• Check-out time is usually 11 am, but we asked for a late check-out until noon and it was accepted on the first day. However, on the second day, the staff said our check-out time was 11 am, so we needed to correct it.
• On the first day, we got informed that “You can use the lounge even after checking out on your way home, so if you have time, please enjoy tomorrow’s afternoon tea again before returning home.”. However, the staff who helped our check-out didn’t say a word about that, only saying “Is there anything else we can do to help you after this?”. I didn’t need any help, so I said no, and then we were guided to the exit and headed to the airport.
