Atsuta Beach Tours

My family of 7 had an excellent stay at the Pools Villas on Yagaji Island in Okinawa. Automated check-in was simple, as was checkout. The private pool was clean and the highlight of the trip for my younger kids. Sleeping in the tatami room on futons was a good experience for my older kids. The air conditioning worked well and kept us comfortable in the humid heat. Bathrooms were large and luxurious and the washer/dryer worked well. It was clean and well kept. But be aware this is a tropical place, so there are large spiders and lizards etc. My children enjoyed having a couple of house geckos in the unit to keep them company. And in the pool deck area, I was a bit surprised by what I thought was a very large spider walking around in the evening, but on closer inspection it was just a local Okinawan coconut/hermit crab that had made its home in the yard beside the pool. It's all part of the local experience! If you want to watch your streaming services from home, better to bring your laptop and connect with HDMI to the TV or streaming stick. That's how we watched the FIFA World Cup games. Internet is OK but sometimes slow. We patronized the two restaurants around the corner for breakfast and dinner on a few occasions. Great beaches are nearby - Kouri island is close by. We enjoyed the quietness of Yagaji island. For the first time in my life I could actually see the milky way stretching above in the sky. There is little light pollution so enjoy the stargazing.

We loved staying here! Our room was gorgeous with a comfy outdoor sofa and a stunning view of the ocean. The amenities provided were amazing. They give face masks, bath salts, and also have a 5 step skincare routine that guests can use. The shampoo and conditioner also did great things for my hair. We came back to a clean and refreshed room every night which is great for when Okinawa is hot and humid! There are various different dining options such as dine in your room, the restaurant or at the grill and cafe that are a short distance from the hotel. We had a great time at the pool which is open 24/7 and heated to a nice temperature. We found this especially relaxing at night and enjoyed viewing sky and listening to the ocean. While there is no direct beach access the beach is a short 10 minute walk away. There are also bicycles nearby that you can rent. We went to Narai Beach which had chairs and an umbrella that you can rent. The staff were so helpful in our requests and we found communication with them (we are native English) was easy. You can tell the staff goes above and beyond in what they do. Overall we loved exploring everything that Yomitan and the central Okinawa area had to offer! Definitely stay here for a relaxing getaway!
