9.6/10 Exceptional! (275 reviews)
The hotel itself (build quality and amenities) were excellent, and they live up to a design ethos which tries to incorporate the local culture into the build. The rooms are spacious and indeed have a gorgeous view of the ocean. They also have both free and for-pay activities in the hotel that reflect the local culture. They even have local pottery work from famous local artists adorned around the property.
Where, I think they could potentially do better:
(1) Although the hotel is on the "beach", the beach itself is rocky and has seaweed. There are much better beaches in Okinawa, so if you want to spend time actually swimming or playing in the ocean there are much better beaches in Okinawa.
(2) There are a couple of restaurants--prices are high for pretty average food. There are many better and cheaper options outside of the hotel.
(3) The pool is shaped in an interesting way, but we did not find it a particularly beautiful or inviting pool to spend time in or around.
(4) The staff overall seemed tired and detached. Very few warm and genuine smiles, which is rare for Japan and Asian hospitality.
