For the cost, I guess what can I expect?? We felt bait N switched. Online mentioned "ocean view", and showed an ocean outside the window.... but didn't mention the industrial equipment everywhere in this "ocean view". lol There was nothing nearby the hotel...and to drive to get to places to eat, there was a lot of traffic......where you sit at a light for at least 3 revolutions before you get to cross. For this type of inconvenience, you would think that they would have a small convenience store within the hotel grounds for necessities and popular snacks. .....this would be especially important after 9pm. Good news is they have a year-round indoor pool that is heated. Also a jacuzzi. The buffet lunch was also tasty.

2nd return to the hotel. I booked 2 rooms but they place us on different floors, asked at the check in if they could place us onto the same floor. Apparently they were extremely full, they were so insist and extremely helpful in getting us ontothe same floor .

プールもビーチも近くて最高でした。 お部屋も綺麗。朝ごはんのメニューも豊富。部屋からサンセット見れた!オーシャンビューのお部屋がおすすめです。チェックインチェックアウトがこんなに待つのかってくらい他のホテルのチェックインチェックアウトに比べて待たされました。施設内の案内が少なくてエレベーターの位置やプールの行き方がわかりづらかったです。

Pros: BEAUTIFUL hotel, views, beach and it's immaculate. Cons: -For being 10min from Naha, there is definitely a language barrier at this hotel. 1 doorman spoke broken English, that's it. -Literally in the middle of an industrial area. MAKE SURE to get a shuttle bus schedule. It will take you to a fish market (a few sushi restaurants), a mall with a beach nearby (with a food court, so you're not paying $35 for a mediocre dinner at the hotel), an aquarium, an outlet mall, a couple of beaches, monorail, and Airport. -Hotel food is mediocre at best. If you are American, you cannot be a picky eater. Your best bet is a $1.00 shuttle ride to the mall. There they have a food court (Spicy Chicken, Starbucks, Gong-Cha, A&W) and grocery store for snacks in your room

This hotel is all about what side your on. On the front door side it faces a cove thats full of industrial business and construction. The ocean side is absolutely beautiful. I dont think you'll find a nicer hotel at a better price. 7 days cost us just under $800.00 and this is a real resort not a budget motel. Respectable sized rooms with a couch and balcony. Be prepared for taxi rides to be a little more due to the area and for most drivers to not know the hotel by name. That being said we had no problems getting rides through a taxi app called DiDi. Our only complaint is that our mattresses were hard so hard with no give or cushion.

Overall it is a very comfortable hotel, near to the beach, michi no eki, outlet mall, aquarium and also the bus to the airport and kokusai dori stops in front the hotel. With that said, the shower rooms was not good, the floor was kind of dirty/dark spots on it, very disgusting to take a shower, I hope the could work to improve the room cleaning services, overall it was good only the shower room wasn't that good.

The hotel is situated over looking the harbour and the sea our room looked over the harbour, the beach is 200m behind the pool accessed via a gate across a road. There are two pools the indoor pool has a jacuzizi. There is a fitness centre which was shut due to covid restrictions, they offer Spa services we didn't use them. It's a bus route for the monorail to Naha & the airport. We were able to park at the hotel easily. The location was good for exploring the north of Okinawa less good for the south. The room was large as were the bed, however the beds were very uncomfortable even by Japanese standard. When we asked for a futon to make them softer a very thin futon arrived, we could only sleep by using quilts in addition to the futon, the cleaning staff kept removing them. The room was cleaned every other day. There were two restauarants we ate the buffet breakfast which had a variety of foods, some of it OK vegetarians but we did not eat there in an evening as the Vegetarian slection was poor. The other restauarent was good but hotel prices and again limited what vegetarian food was on offer, the food there was well cooked and presented. There was also a shop where you could buy food and drink personal items or gifts. We did not find a good local cafe or bar so we sat in our room and drank or ate snacks. 2 chairs in room and also patio chairs on a balcony. The staff spoke only Japanese but were very friendly and we managed with our limited Japanese.
