A great accommodation experience. There are supermarkets and shopping malls within walking distance. There is a kitchen for cooking. I was unexpectedly upgraded to have a super sea view and a double bed compartment! I will consider visiting again next time...

I took two kids on a family trip and were lucky enough to get a room upgrade! The whole feeling is like coming home... so comfortable that I almost don’t want to go out! There is a kitchen for cooking, and it is highly recommended to travel in person...

Parking at the accommodation is free, and simple English can be communicated.Kitchen utensils will only be provided if you ask for them at the counter (no seasonings such as salt!)The room is large and meets the CP valueThere is an outlet and a 24-hour supermarket nearby, so you don’t have to worry about having nothing to eat if you’re hungry in the middle of the night.

Advantages: Apartment-style hotel with oversized rooms, kitchen and living room, unparalleled ocean views, and swimming pool. It is within walking distance of Seaside Park, San-A, Nishimatsuya and Orion Supermarket. The counter service is that of a hotel. Booking a 90-day early bird stay + 4 consecutive nights only costs NT$12,000, which is a great deal.Disadvantages: It is located in Ginowan, so it is a little far to the north. You have to borrow pots and pans, and the pots you borrowed this time were a bit dirty. The washing machine and dryer have to be used in a public space. I told you in advance that children would be staying with you, but the children's supplies were not provided. I had to go to the counter to ask for them. Not considerate.

The hotel itself does not have a beach attached to it, so it is not suitable for the type of stay where you go back and forth between your room and the beach. (It's small but beautiful and there is a pool with enough lifeguards to satisfy your desire to swim.)Highly recommended for those who want to go sightseeing around Okinawa on a long trip. It is also convenient that there are several large supermarkets nearby.Another nice thing about the hotel was that the parking lot was close to the hotel entrance, and the store had a good selection of items.The hospitality of the staff was good and I had a pleasant stay.Overall, the quality was such that I thought it would be a good place to stay as a regular lodging in Okinawa.
