Home away from home
Reviewed By Banda-in-JapanI stayed here for a week while in Onna-son on business. The rooms are spacious and well-appointed so I was very comfortable. Although some construction behind the hotel has spoiled the views from the balcony, the balcony itself, with its table and chair, was a comfortable place to relax. The staff were very welcoming and kind. Due to COVID, breakfast was served in a box that guests picked up from the dining room and took back to their rooms (I even ate on the balcony a couple of times!). It was a very nice breakfast--more food than I could eat. There was also coffee and tea available in the room. Staying for a week, I needed to do laundry. The hotel had nice washing machines and even supplied free laundry detergent. There's not much within walking distance, except beach access and the university. But for me that was all I needed.

Fabulous food, you won't be disappointed
Reviewed By SGC28We stayed here for 2 nights on a short break to Okinawa. Booked for dinner and it was really good, cooked with great skill and care. Rooms are good value and super clean. Perfect for a short break as beaches were close

Gross
Reviewed By JAJahanThe whole place was filthy and nothing like the photos. Very disappointed as I was looking forward to staying here. Bathroom was filthy. There were cockroaches in the room. Disgusting really. Only stay here if you're looking for a nice ocean view and are happy to "slum it". Checked out after 1 day and staff didn't even ask of everything was okay.

私たちの施設は、アメリカが統治していたかつてのOkinawaに建てられたモーテルを、 建築デザインオフィスがリノベーションし、自ら運営も手がけるデザインホテルです。 場所は日米のカルチャーと人々が、今もボーダレスに混じり合う沖縄本島の中部地域、 オキナワの海も街も買い物も！ そのすべてを手にいれたい人に絶好のロケーションです。 沖縄への旅行やロングステイはもちろん、ローカルの人々のカジュアルな滞在まで、 SPICE MOTEL OKINAWAをとっておきの隠れ家として、どうぞご利用ください。 This building, built as a motel when the U.S. was occupying Okinawa, was renovated by an architectural design office. Now, we run this boutique motel ourselves. We are centrally located on the main island of Okinawa, where Japanese and American culture are mixed with each other. The best spot for the beach, the city and shopping of Okinawa! Double, twin/triple bed rooms and also a original room which is renovated in the image of the motel at the time of 1970's are available. For travelers, long-stay visitors, or even locals looking for a casual stay, please use SPICE MOTEL OKINAWA as your favorite hide-away home.
Vintage and great value!
Reviewed By Maggie WWe stayed at a double bed room. The whole motel is just as you seen on pictures, vintage and simple. The parking garages were only set for certain room types, our room locates on 2nd floor, so we didn't get a garage to park, and need to walk on stairs to get up and down, which was perfectly fine for us but I can see how it'll be really inconvenient for people travelling with kids and large luggage. The lady at the check-in counter speaks fluent English and super helpful and friendly. The location is a bit out of no where, but it should not be a problem if you rent a car. There's a huge mall AEON close by. The bed was a bit hard for us, but we're soft bed kinda people. Overall, it's still a pleasant stay for us.

Great time! This hotel was of the budget variety, but the position was perfect with a car. We thought it was great!
Reviewed By Mark WWe stayed here in July 2019 and it was a great spot to explore the northern part of Okinawa. 5 mins up the road on Sesoku Island is the beautiful Sesoku beach, amazing especially for beautiful sunsets. Motobu is close for food and shops and Nago is only a short ride too. it was about 15-20 mins to the Aquarium, which we can highly recommend. We took the day to drive up to Cape Hedo and around the top of the island, which was lovely. Stopped to walk to waterfalls along the way. Not too much traffic up this end of the island at that time, very relaxing.

Reviewed By ChesabellThe host was extremely hospitable, and his dog, Nagi, was lovely as well. Being very close to the ocean, we enjoyed a short run to the nearby park in the early morning and took in the fresh sea breeze - perfect start to a great day!

Magachabaru Okinawa
Not worth it!
Reviewed By p911turboSo, it was our first time going to Okinawa, Japan and we were so excited about it. After a long distance flight, we got our rental car at the airport, drove about 2 hours to get to Magachabaru (because of traffic, language barrier, speed limits, power of the car, unresponsive GPS, etc.). The drive was not easy but we still very much looked forward to the hotel stay. The hotel is in the North, in a middle of forest, and very far away from the Main Island. And if you check the room rate, it is by no means cheap. We paid over US$600 plus tax a night - a little more than what we usually spend at Ritz, MO, and FS of which we are lifetime members. We spent 3 nights there. It is the secludedness that drew us there. Its privacy and peace reminded us of our home and we needed them to ease our nostalgia. We had been traveling Asia since the end of May. When we got there, we were sweaty, exhausted, and hungry, and most importantly, we were hoping to be received with a warm welcome and maybe a tad of kindness. After we got off the car at about 1830, we were then led to the check in area. The silence during the short walk was awkward and unusual. We sat down and then the male manager Miyaki-san tendered some unknown fruit drinks to us. I thought that he would be so proud and eager to introduce us to their highly prized local tropical fruits. Instead, he stared at the booking print out left on the table and my child of elementary school age. That was the moment that started to get us nervous and uneasy. He then finally opened his mouth and said in a long face that our Expedia reservation indicated that we would be bringing along an infant - the third guest who would be staying with us in the room of over 1400 sqf. We were scratching our heads as we had no intentions to cheat as what implied in his statement, tone, facial expression and body language. We told him that we were not too sure about what he meant and happened. We explained to him that we entered the right age of our child into the Expedia system. We told him that we didn’t even know that there was a problem as we were not reached out prior to the stay for any clarifications (interestingly, they left a child robe and a pair of slippers good for an elementary school child in the room, definitely not for an infant). Then, instead of asking us for the passports, he had my love one complete the forms for him. Before taking us to the room, he told us (my child was tired and hungry) that there would be NO dinner for us (it was about 1849 when the check in process was over) that night because we failed to make any advanced reservations. Also, he said that there would be NO breakfast for us too the next morning because we just missed the daily breakfast reservation cut-off time (before 1800 everyday). We were beyond stunned and there were no words to describe how bad the treatments were. He told my love one that they sent over an email about the hotel earlier. My love one told him that he didn’t receive anything electronically from the hotel. We were again bewildered because we thought that the hotel should try to reach out to the guests (there are only 11 villas in the premise) again if they didn’t hear anything (the ball is on your side, we already paid). After we settled in our room and got connected to the provided portable wi-fi (it didn’t work well at all), we checked and found that the email was in the spam folder. However, he snubbed us anyway by printing a copy for us. Later on that day, he got back to us saying that we were allowed to have breakfast at 0900 even though we did not inform them in time (well, we didn’t go sightseeing after we landed, we drove directly to the hotel and it took time). At one point during the check in process, he asked strangely as to how we were able to find the premise. We were confused again as to how and why such a question should have come up in that context. Later on, we found out during the breakfast that we were the ONLY non-Japanese family there. The breakfast costs US$30 each and requires a daily reservation before 1800. We called for a buggy before 0900 the next morning to take us to the breakfast place. The restaurant was boring and there was no menu on the table. We sat down and they gave us food. They assumed that since we were non-Japanese and therefore we should have continental breakfast. My child paid the same amount of money and had the same uninteresting meal. There were no morning greetings, refills of water or juice (not fresh pressed), or checking on us. The breakfast was mediocre. We decided not to eat there the next day not because of its high price but rather, we found the lack of substance and service intolerable. We were on vacation and it was supposed to be fun and we were beyond ready to splurge. As we observed, we were the only family who was served continental breakfast (even my child was able to point it out). Other Japanese visitors got to enjoy Japanese food which we had no problem with at all. The room was fine. They strangely pushed 2 queen-sized beds together without asking. The beds and pillows were not comfortable. They were so soft and gave no support. In terms of size, it reminded us of those Asian resort villas - spacious and full of bugs (they didn’t have the repellents ready in the room). Portable lights should have been provided near the pool (just like FS) for guests who want to take a swim at night. The water pressure was good and AC systems were strong. TV channels were limited and all in Japanese. Other staff members were fine - they did what they were supposed to be. We thought that it is totally fine if they have no intention to serve non-Japanese visitors. And yet, they are listed in all major travel sites - easy to find and reserve as long as you do not mind the pricey side of it. The stay was a memorable one but in a negative way. They didn’t understand or refuse to provide hospitality to non-Japanese guests. They assumed that non-Japanese were not able to understand and therefore respect their cultures. Showing kindness should be universal and across all cultures. It is a shame that you fail to represent your group. There was no thoughtfulness shown at all during our stay. We left the premise after 3 nights with questions and disagreements. Our vacation began after switching to Ritz.

Отлично! Теплый прием!
Reviewed By Сергей ББыли семьей в июне-июле один месяц. Красивейший пляж в 5 минутах. Близко к океанариуму Чурами, замку накиджин. Ходит бесплатный автобус до Ocean Tower. Недалеко от города Наго, где полно интересного: лодки с прозрачным дном в Бусена парке, так же там есть подводная башня. Интересно было детям в зоопарке где обитают розовые фламинго и много других животных и птиц. Можно делать барбекю на территории отеля, для этого предоставляют все необходимое. У отеля есть договор с компанией X-trip, они предлагают разные водные развлечения: дайвинг, снорклинг, парашют и др. Размещение приятное, тихое спокойное место, очень комфортно для отдыха. У нас комната была с душем и туалетом. Чисто, аккуратно! Спасибо хозяйке отеля за теплый прием и душевное общение!

Guest House
Nature Lovers: This Place is for You !
Reviewed By RyukyuMikeAs a resident of Kin Cho, Nature Mirai, is within walking distance from my home. Several times a year I visit here with my cameras. The grounds are always well-maintained and the straff are polite, helpful and friendly. There are cabannas along the Okukubi River with sinks for washing, barbecues available and soft drink machines, and clean restrooms are available. The wildlife, is the main attraction, for me. There are also kayak rental services available for those who wish to tour the mangrove forests.
