South Okinawa Ski Vacations

Pros: rooms are great (we stayed in the condo) - huge apartment, washing machine, small equipped kitchen. No complaints about the room at all! Lunch options: decent takeaway at the deli! Reasonably priced and tasty! Cons: - Pools: there are only 2 at the property. Pools are great, but honestly quite small for the number of guests at the resort. There were a lot of screaming and splashing children, which is fine, just would have been great to have an adults only pool option. - Beach: the beach is shocking to get to. I thought other reviews seemed dramatic, but it is over a busy road, the path is super unclear and the ‘beach house’ was almost impossible to find. Honestly not sure how people headed across with small children! - Restaurant: the BBQ restaurant in the hotel was pretty bad. Food was poor quality, mountains of dirty dishes were everywhere. Nowhere near good enough at a 5-star hotel and given the price point!

Super nice condo with beautiful views. Amazing bathroom and outdoor jacuzzi.

While the property is pleasant, I feel that the price does not fully reflect the value offered. For instance, the minibar is not complimentary, especially the nearest supermarket is a 10-minute drive away. Providing a one-time complimentary minibar would be a thoughtful gesture to make travelers feel more valued.

I absolutely LOVED this pool villa. It was the perfect size and layout. The heated pool (heated to perfect comfortable 82*F) and the hot tub were a nice touch. I am looking for my next visit. Lots of things to do nearby- aquarium, beach, Starbucks, ice cream, grocery. Some suggestions for upgrades and to be comparable to other villas in the area would be to provide a grill, pool towels, floats and pool loungers (to fit in the pool tanning ledge). 😍

We stayed at Ryukyu Hotel & Resort Nashiro Beach for three nights and found it to be a great option for families, especially those with young children. The pools and beach were the highlights of our stay. However, do note that the afternoon tide can significantly lower the water level, making swimming less enjoyable during those hours. We visited during a very hot and rainy period, which limited some activities. Breakfast and lunch at the hotel were excellent, with a good variety and quality. That said, if you don’t have a rental car, transportation becomes a challenge,taxis are necessary to reach nearby cities or attractions. A key tip: renting a car in Okinawa requires an International Driver's Permit (IDP), which you must obtain in advance (e.g., from AAA in the U.S.). We were surprised by this requirement and unable to rent a car, which limited our ability to explore the island fully. Additionally, any tours or island visits often need to be booked well in advance, so plan ahead. The hotel caters mostly to families with children. While it’s a very nice property, adults traveling without children may find the atmosphere less relaxing.

Quite hard to access with public transports, nice airport view, close to Senaga island

Nice hotel in a good location

Very close to the monorail and about a 20 minute walk from the Naha shopping market that holds alot of the activities I interacted with.
