Great hotel with large rooms. I stayed as one person in a twin room and there was ample space with a separate kitchen/dining area, and balcony with a fantastic view of the sea. Staff were also very friendly. The hotel is situated next to a bus stop with options to take you to Naha City and the Airport. Lots of dining options within the resort and within walking distance.
