We loved this place!The owners are friendly and they have a cute dog in reception. We asked for Japanese tatami room for our anniversary. They have western rooms also, but we like futon on the floor. They have a wonderful garden in the front. Not many guest houses have the luxury of so much space, so this was a really lovely spot. We had coffee in the morning in the garden in the shade under the trees. They have snorkel rental and we saw turtles both days!! We were so happy. We did not want to leave. Very happy here! In the room is fridge, microwave, kettle, cups, glasses. Some cooking utensils but we always ate at restaurant so we didn’t need any of these. Shampoo and body wash is supplied also.

I chose it because it was close to the port. There are supermarkets and restaurants nearby, so it's recommended for those who want to relax for several nights or those who want to visit remote islands.The room we stayed in was a simple Japanese-style room on the second floor. It's not new, but it's well kept and I'm satisfied. There is air conditioning and the futons are clean.The toilet and shower were equipped with a unit bath, shampoo, conditioner, and body soap.There is a drying space and washing machine downstairs, and the best part is that there is also a shower! (There is also a door)Check-out was at 11am, and since the ship was leaving in the evening, I told them that I would be visiting some remote islands during that time, and they said I could leave my luggage there and let me use the shower outside.Thanks to you, after enjoying the remote island to the fullest, I was able to freshen up in the shower at the hotel and return to Naha.It was the best memory of Zamami.thank you very much.

Futon hotel near the ferry port, where you take buses to go to the beaches. There is a very nice little dog at reception called Oreo.

3 nights from 2024.2.4 (Sun).room→Although it is old, it is well-cleaned and clean. Equipped with an electric kettle, cooking heater, and tableware. I can cook simple meals myself. No Wi-Fi problems. There is a washing machine and a clothesline, so it might be best to stay for at least 3 nights.Owner→He is a very nice person! Dogs are cute too!price→I would be even happier if you could lower the price during the off-season!meal→There are supermarkets that open from 7 a.m., snack bento shops that open from 7:30 a.m., and places that serve breakfast. No problem.People who want to look cool may like it.
