A new hotel opened on Kouri Island.I had a wonderful time from arrival to departure.Although it has a unique and original design, it somehow has a calming atmosphere, and best of all, it has the best ocean view.We pay close attention to the wood and sink used, and no matter where you cut out the pieces or take a photo, it becomes a picture.The hotel has a solid concept and is friendly to both Okinawa and its guests.If I write too much, I won't be as excited when I visit, so I'll stop here, but I'm sure you'll be impressed no matter how many times you visit, so definitely go! !Thank you for everything you did during our stay! !

It's not the fault of the host, but a drone flew by and took a lot of pictures of us. It was very unpleasant. I think it should be stated on the website and in the room manual that drones are prohibited. All the other hotels in Okinawa I've been to in the past were decent.Although the hotel had an interesting structure, it was inconvenient that the toilet was located in the courtyard. There are steps, so you should be careful at night.I had a room facing the sea, but since the main island of Okinawa is across the street, there was a fair amount of light, and I didn't feel like the location was good as I wasn't directly facing the sea. But you can see Kouri Ohashi Bridge.I was concerned about the fact that there was no border between the villa and the villa next door, so when I entered the pool, I could see everything, but I wonder if it will be okay if the plants grow?It seemed difficult to have the meals brought to the room and prepared, but the hot pot dishes and breakfast eaten on the terrace were good. The taste is interesting, so it might be a good choice for people who are tired of regular hotel rooms.Those who live in a house may be able to spend their time without any inconvenience, but those who live in an apartment may be confused by the unfamiliarity.

A facility where you can fully enjoy the nature of Kouri Island and Yanbaru. The big difference from other hotels is that the wind blowing through the semi-outdoor terrace is pleasant, and you can feel the Katabui (driving rain), a specialty of Okinawa, as part of the dynamic natural process. I went back and forth between the pool and the open-air bath and lazed around without worrying about anyone.

The other day, I stayed with my family, daughter, and 6 friends! When we entered the room, it smelled like wood, and my second daughter was very happy! The room was nice, and there was a spectacular view of Ie Island in the distance! Swimming by the pool while watching the sunset, then having dinner on the terrace, cooling off and having drinks while talking a lot! It was great!We were blessed with fine weather in the morning, and we were able to enjoy a relaxing view of Ie Island from the deck of our room! It was a wonderful and relaxing time!The main electricity in the room wasn't on, so the lights didn't come on...I kept flipping switches everywhere (lol) I thought it would be nice to have an explanation at the beginning!

I stayed for one night with my sister and her husband.We chose a type of room called Connect, which connects two rooms. You can come and go freely, but your private life is separate, so I think this is the perfect room for two households or two families to spend time together.Enter the room and check in. We received sweets and tea as welcome drinks. The warm tea smelled so good, and from the moment I was drinking it on the terrace overlooking the ocean, I felt so relaxed that I wondered, ``What was the hectic thing about yesterday?''We spent the evening and dinner on the terrace of our room with a pool, and at night we spent the night drinking and chatting while looking up at the starry sky on the terrace or stairs of our spacious room in the garden. It was especially nice to spend time in the evening breeze. Of course, it's an endless loop of going back and forth to the pool in the morning, and when your body gets cold, you can warm up in the bath. .I spent most of my time in a swimsuit except when I went to bed.I was able to enjoy the pool and bath while looking out at the sea, feel the breeze, and see the starry sky, so I enjoyed myself so much that I didn't even have to go out. The view from a room without a pool might be the best!For dinner, we had miso-marinated grilled Kuroge Wagyu beef from Okinawa Prefecture.The appetizers and meat were very delicious, but the grilled vegetables were fresh and sweet, and I was impressed by the strong vegetable flavor in a good way! ! I was satisfied with the deliciousness of the seasonal vegetables from Okinawa Prefecture.My stomach is so full! Since it's Kouri Island, I was wondering how far I would have to go to buy food if I got hungry at night, but it turned out to be an unnecessary worry.For breakfast, we each chose what we wanted to eat, and the staff's hospitality was just the right amount of comfort, making us very satisfied.I heard that there are rooms with large pools, so I would like to visit with friends next time.

I had a wonderful experience at a newly built villa on Kouri Island, Okinawa. I had such a calm and extraordinary time that I found myself yawning naturally. Relax in the pool during the day, and after the sun sets, toast to delicious Okinawa-specific cuisine on the terrace...! The happiness of this magic hour will motivate you in your future work! The staff's detailed explanations and responses were also impressive. Thank you for your warm welcome. Families, loved ones, girls' night out, etc. Recommended when you want to take a relaxing break while looking at the sea ♪

I stayed here with my friend and his wife. The weather was nice and the sun was strong until the sun went down, but we spent that time soaking in the pool, and after the sun went down, the temperature was just right. Before I knew it, I was spending most of the day on the terrace drinking alcohol while playing background music on the bluetooth speaker I had brought with me until dinner, dinner, and getting together afterwards. The beautiful sunset sky seen from the terrace was a very magical view.I was very satisfied with the meal I was looking forward to. For dinner, I had the ``grilled wagyu beef marinated in miso'', and everything from the appetizer to the main meat was very delicious and the portions were just right. The breakfast was also very filling, delicious and filling. The selection of local ingredients and chichimun was also very good. The staff who brought the meals to me were also very friendly and I had a good impression of them, as they were at just the right distance.The room has a sophisticated wooden architectural design and space, the furniture and fittings are very fashionable, and the natural surroundings make you feel luxurious. It was a wonderful experience where I forgot about time and was so relaxing that I could literally ``yawn'' as the name of the inn suggests. I will definitely visit you again.
