Hotéis com Spa em Okinawa Prefecture, Japan

Location: Excellent! Just 400 meters from the Naha Kūkō Station west exit. There's a FamilyMart convenience store right downstairs, and the amazing SAN-A mall is next door. Okinawa DFS is also directly behind the hotel. Facilities: On the first floor, there's a free coffee machine and free manga for rent. Downside: There's no smoking area either at the hotel entrance or inside the hotel itself. The designated smoking area is located in the hotel's parking lot.

Fantastic hotel. None of us, especially the kids, wants to leave the hotel at check-out. They upgrade my room from level 6 to 9 premium club. It paid off to stay in an ocean facing room. The room is clean and well maintained. Although this is not a new hotel (where lifts require cardkey) the rooms locks are cardkey based. Bed is a bit hard for me, but were just as hard for the other hotels i stayed there :^_^:. The breakfast spread is wide and tasty. The restaurant can get crowded over weekend (but you can still managed to find a seat). The beach lagoon is shallow and water is super clean and calm. There are big malls/outlet, restaurants and super markets within 5~10 min drive. It's around 20min drive to popular attractions like Okinawa world, Gandala valley, Chinen Park, Peace memorials, etc. There is also free performance at 6pm on Fri/Sat evening, which IMO is better than those at theme parks. The hotel gives 10% coupon for outlet and Iias mall (remember to use). Note parking is still charged, at 550y per night, which seems to be standard for resort hotels in Okinawan (?)

The hotel is in a great location, just a 5-minute walk from the monorail. It's very convenient for visiting Naminoue Shrine, the Prefectural Office, and Kokusai Street, yet it's still relatively quiet. The breakfast spread is amazing, with a good variety of Japanese specialties and foods, and they offer extended serving hours, which is a huge plus. There are plenty of dining options nearby, and getting around is easy. Definitely recommended! They also offer complimentary coffee and tea in the lobby lounge area.

Friendly staff. Good location in about the middle of the island with free parking. Clean and spacious with many plugs. Family mart down stairs. Negatives are: gecko in the room, no bottled water, pillow with very little stuffing makes you feel like sleeping without a pillow. Cleaning is every 3 days and only if you put a sign up for it. Bathroom is typically small as Japanese standard, which is a loss because they could've made the room larger by merging the ”changing” room with the bathroom.

This was an absolutely flawless experience! Taking a WeChat Uber from the airport was very affordable, and the entire check-in process was incredibly smooth. For this price point, the experience was truly satisfying. The hotel environment is also fantastic; it's no wonder it's on Asia's list of best sea-view hotels. The service is excellent; they're always responsive. Every time I called housekeeping, they arrived within five minutes. The only minor issue is that transportation isn't the most convenient, but this hotel is really for enjoying the facilities and the beautiful views. There's a bus from the hotel's parking lot that goes to the city for dining and to Naha Airport, and Uber rides are quite quick to arrange as well.

The reason to go to this hotel is because it is extremely convenient and has a great view. We came here last year, but it was cheaper last year. We were surprised to learn that the car parking is now something you have to pay, which wasn't the case last year. Seems like a very cheap decision on their part considering the hotel is already pretty expensive. Also be prepared, the room will not be the newest or cleanest. It had a bit of mold on the wall around the AC unit, and the walls needed to be repainted and fixed on some parts.

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel, especially because of the spa facilities. The spa includes a sauna, a pool, an onsen, a cold bath, showers, and everything is very clean and well-maintained. A special mention goes to the fact that the spa is tattoo-friendly for both men and women. I have three medium-sized tattoos on my arms and saw other women who were even more tattooed than me — it was never an issue. I double-checked at the front desk, and they confirmed that tattoos are accepted. I'm highlighting this because I saw some other reviews saying the spa wasn't tattoo-friendly, but that was not my experience at all. The only downside I found is that the rooms are a bit noisy — you can easily hear what's going on in the hallways throughout the day, which is unfortunate. Also, the hotel is not exactly close to the city center; it's about a 15–20 minute walk. Other than that, I would definitely recommend this hotel, especially for the spa! Oh, and the bathrooms are nice haha!

I took bus 143 from Naha Bus Terminal to the American Village (it was the last stop for this bus, not sure where the actual last stop is) and walked for about 10 minutes to reach the hotel. Since it was before check-in time, I waited in the lobby, where complimentary drinks and cookies were available. The front desk staff were very enthusiastic and helped us store our luggage first; the service was excellent. After checking in, we were given an upgraded room, much larger than what we had booked, which was fantastic! American Village at night is beautiful and definitely worth staying for a night.

🏨 EM Healthy Fermented Lifestyle Resort Review My stay at the EM Healthy Fermented Lifestyle Resort was generally clean and well-equipped. The front desk staff were polite, and although their English was limited, basic communication was manageable. However, as a mother traveling with a two-year-old, this experience left me extremely disappointed and uneasy. We returned to the hotel close to 10 pm that evening, and my child, tired from the journey, became irritable and cried for about 8 to 10 minutes. While I was trying to soothe him, there was a knock on the door, and a note was left outside that read: ”If you cannot control your child's crying, you should not stay at this hotel.” This handling of the situation shocked me. It's perfectly natural for children to cry occasionally in unfamiliar environments, and hotels, as spaces that accommodate all kinds of travelers, should have basic understanding and tolerance. This note not only lacked empathy but also conveyed a sense of rejection and blame. For families with young children, this accommodation was unfriendly and not a good choice to stay again. 👶 If you are a family traveling with a young child, I suggest you carefully consider whether to stay at this hotel. The journey is already difficult enough; what we need more is understanding and support, not indifference and blame.

The advantage is that the rooms are very spacious, but you have to book a more expensive room type. The balcony view is fantastic, you can watch the sunset. Although it's a port, the water features and swimming pools below the commercial building are lit up at night, which actually looks pretty good. There's a convenience store right next to the lobby, which is very handy. The hot spring is nice, they gave us tickets, though the pools aren't particularly large. The downside is that the location is a 15-minute walk from the light rail, but it's close to the beach. Housekeeping is every two days; if you want it daily, you have to pay, but they do provide two days' worth of amenities and water, so it's not a big deal. Breakfast was awful, the quality was subpar, and the restaurant looked two grades below the hotel itself. There are also quite a few tour groups at this hotel because many Japanese people stay here for the hot springs. The front desk staff's English was terrible; I couldn't understand their 'curry accent,' I think they were Nepalese.
