Okinawa Hinode Resort and Hot Spring Hotel

Overall, I don’t think I would stay here again. Maybe it is worth to spend a night or two here. Details below: During my 6D5N trip, I have stayed in different hotels. This hotel had the most expensive parking by far. It was ¥2000 / night. Also the parking was a bit inconvenient since the parking area uses an elevator-system and you need a staff to operate the parking system machine to get your car each time you need to use your car. There were a lot of families with young children during my stay, not the best place if you’re looking for a quiet place to relax. There were also only 2 elevators so sometimes it takes a long time to wait for the elevators due to the crowd. The hotel provides a lot of amenities, including some daily activities from 17:00-18:00, noodles from 20:30-21:30, and free flow drinks from 10:00-22:00 (no free laundry tho). I got to try the traditional outfit dress up session, it was a good experience to quickly try on the Okinawan-style kimono. Just a personal preference, I did find their soaps and skin care products heavily scented, which I wasn’t a fan of.

After my 5 night stay here, fully understand why this hotel earning such high scoring. Great !

My Okinawa trip wouldn’t have been as fun if I hadn’t booked this hotel! They really go the extra mile for guests — unlimited drinks (beer, wine, sake, etc.) and free ramen every night, plus daily activities and games. There’s also a pool and hot spring, perfect after a long day of travel or shopping. It’s clear they care about customer satisfaction. Will definitely rebook on my next trip!
