“Disappointed as I really wanted my family to have the resort feel that we assumed from the pictures.”
We liked that the property was opposite the swimming spot. My kids enjoyed the space that the property has unlike many places in Japan this is huge. We all went up on the roof for sunset and that was a stunning view also. The host provided a water filter that was pretty good, thank you for that as during the summer heat, it was handy to have. I did like less than I wish I did and I dont like to be negative but I hope it just helps you make a more informed decision if you are considering this property with my other feedback :(

“Watch the Okinawa sunset from your room!”
The location was perfect right at Araha beach! You could see the sunset from the wide windows! It has a really fun pirate playground, safe swimming beach with lifeguard, fishing area. Great base for central and south okinawa. Near Chatan and American village for restaurants, near Ginowan for shopping, the seaside park. Just half hour drive to different parts of Okinawa. The house had everything we need. Laundry, shower amenities, cooking facilities. Very large room and bathroom. Comfortable beds and large tatami area for futons. Host were very responsive to our questions. The entire front is a large window which is great the view but may be too bright in the day. They have black out curtains for that.

“It was very pleasant, and really value for money.”
The view is great. The sunset is spectacular. The location is great. The room is spacious and got almost everything you need. The resort does not offer services like a hotel but is very suitable for a short stay (we stayed for about a week).

“All in all I loved this place and will go back if I’m in the area for vacation again.”
Awesome location! Right by the beach and multiple restaurants and bars, only about 25 minutes to walk to American village. Location is very lively with the weekend market they do, lots of excellent food and drinks right outside the building at various stands! The room was very spacious and clean upon arrival and they have a keypad lock as well as keys so it made walking to the beach easier as you didn’t need to bring keys with you to get back inside. Overall I really liked this place aside from a few details I consider minor and I will likely stay there again if I go back to Okinawa.

Excellent host. So happy to have found this pet friendly hotel. We booked the dormitory style room with a shared bathroom, but the host provided a free upgrade to a beautiful, huge private apartment with more than enough room for our family. The hotel is beach front with lots of restaurants/shops nearby, and a large San-A mall with a grocery store within walking distance.
